The Golden State Warriors are a force beyond belief when Steph Curry is healthy enough to stand on the court, whether he’s dribbling the ball or drifting 35 feet from the action.
There is no hyperbolizing his positive impact. Curry, now a two-time MVP, is the first player in NBA history to join the 50-40-90 club while leading the league in scoring. Unprecedented accuracy from outside makes him a code-red-level threat. He summons the attention of all five defenders like nobody else.
The problem with that strategy is obvious: There are four other Warriors who deserve attention.
