The on/off numbers with Curry-less and Durant-less lineups say otherwise. Durant is the better player in a vacuum, but Curry is the Warriors.
I kind of feel like Klay Thompson is underrated/appreciated on that team.

Regular season doesn't matter. Who do you want to have the ball for the final shot in game 7 of the finals? If you say curry on anything other than a Steve Kerr or John Paxson wide open kick out from MJ type shot you're wrong.
A championship team is more than one final shot.

So Vegas has LeBron scoring 38, a 2:1 chance of a 40 point triple double, and the Celtics winning.

Celtics Warriors will be profoundly boring as a Finals pairing.

Probably, but it doesn't really matter if they drop a game or even two. It's not a series. At least if Cavs are in again we can watch LeBron go all Braveheart in the loss.

The Cavs are awful. The only reason they aren’t losing by 30 is some awful shot selection by Boston.
