Have you been following the stats? How do you defend Steph Curry? He could be with any team right now and hitting ridiculous amounts of long range shots. Those long range shots matter a lot!

So many teams are hampered by nutcases (Cousins) or one-way players whose deficiencies can't be overcome. Put Curry on many teams and he might score loads, but likely be back in the pack. GSW have got a solid rim protector, great system and buy-in (invaluable), defensive versatility (Draymond and Iguoadala) and a second-fiddle shooter who is pretty outstanding in his own right.

It's no surprise that the other outstanding team in San Antonio also have defensive versatility and a brilliant system.
