For starters, Curry has won without Durant
Durant has not won without Curry
Also, contrary to revisionist history, Curry's first ring he won was NOT a super team. It was a regular good team that was in sync. A lot of people didn't think Curry was gonna lead that type of team to a ring, and a lotta people thought they should have traded Klay for Kevin Love back then.
So Curry got a ring without a super team, Durant hasn't.

Be a FMVP for playing "defense" on a nikka who lead both teams in points, rebounds, and assists brehsMan....I hated how the media tried to make like Iggy was playing lockdown defense. Bron was averaging 36-13-9
His defense in that series was a product of Kyrie and Love being hurt, so he could commit squarely to LeBron without having to lock down anyoneMan....I hated how the media tried to make like Iggy was playing lockdown defense. Bron was averaging 36-13-9
But but but Iggy was able to slow Bron down thoMan....I hated how the media tried to make like Iggy was playing lockdown defense. Bron was averaging 36-13-9
I was really impressed with Steph this year. My two biggest issues with him were always 1) his defense and 2) his durability.
In terms of defense, teams used to headhunt him and try and exploit that matchup. He's gotten stronger defensively and can stand his ground now. This year you couldn't just pick on him.
And in terms of durability he always used to break down physically at the end of seasons, especially when he had to carry a heavy load night after night. This season he was consistently great night in and night out, and didn't seem to wear down at all.
All this on top of the legendary shooting, scoring and playmaking.
Regardless of what happens in the playoffs, Steph did his f*cking thing this year. If Klay comes back healthy and they get another starting piece, they will be contenders again next year.

Steph was amazing this season as what he did was just as much if not more impressive than his 2016 MVP season. He was a targeted man all season and the numbers he put up (especially the second half of the season) gives him 2 of the greatest offensive seasons ever. He's more than a shooter which is why i think many don't give him the props he deserves. But Steph is deadly from the midrange too and can get to the cup with and elite handle. He's pretty much a complete point guard and has great size to match too. Those type of skills would translate to any era and we need to understand that we are witnessing an all time great when he plays.
What makes it even more impressive is how he has almost zero continuity with this team.
He played 5 games last year, then this year they added Oubre, Wiseman, Minion, JTA, etc.
So he had to jump in to a completely new team, without any real practice or pre-season due to covid... after not playing for almost a year because of his hand injury.
And the first half of the year, Kerr was slow and experimenting with the lineups.
And despite that, Curry's record when he has played is 37-28... they are 2-7 without him. If he played those games they're probably hovering around 5 or 6th.
So Curry has actually been great this year. We forget this team was 15-50 last year.

They were trying to give to bron the entire way even in a loss
At least @CHICAGO didn't delete the thread

Somehow Bron was having one of the greatest performances of all time, but the guy defending him deserved Finals MVPBe a FMVP for playing "defense" on a nikka who lead both teams in points, rebounds, and assists brehs
