    What does any of that have to do with his shooting percentages?

    He shot .528 from 2....

    C'mon man... Just stop...

    Did you miss where I said, "was ahead on shooting 2s and 3s"? You want me to lie about the other stats per 36 where Napier was ahead?

    The man had a "make liberals cry again #2020" (or something like that) bumper sticker and then was dumb enough to let it sit overnight in a bar parking lot. Not the smartest move on his part.

    isnt that the same kind of victim blaming that happens in other areas. I mean I get it, not popular, and tactless, but having a bumper sticker someone doesnt like shouldnt equal you deserve to have your vehicle burned. Also its encouraged to take an uber home if youve been drinking at a bar.

    That's an inciteful bumper sticker. Not that he deserved it at all, but he combined being inciteful with being dumb enough to leave it at a bar.

    Why yes! Yes it is.

    She shouldn't have had that dress on that was that tight either...
    Oh and she was drunk.

    Dude shouldn't have had that bumper sticker and boy oh boy he shouldn't have gotten drunk and called a taxi. For heavens sake!

    What the actual fuck is he even talking about?

    Unfortunately I think destruction of personal property or personal injury of anyone thats thought, to be a conservative or simply non progressive, is something the anarchist consider a justifiable act and take pride in doing.
    These scumbags are going to cross the line one to many times.

    I'll just let you go on believing that.

    They probably shouldn't be spending too much time on the internet if they are that sensitive...

    Mediocre and in the playoffs is better than mediocre and just missing the playoffs. Which is where we were before Olshey...

    It's a step in the right direction.

    Really? You'll probably do that whilst ignoring his better PER and DRT too?

    The stats say Curry is better. I couldn't care less about the extra rebound or the .4 more steals Shabazz gets. No, give.net the guy shooting 52% from 2 and 42% from 3, that can actually get by his man and finish at the rim. Something Shabazz was horrible at.

    For me the eye test is enough, but when it comes to the stats that matter, Curry wins hands down.

    We're still in purgatory.

    We've been here since 2006.

    The obvious issue here is *which* Curry we are getting. Is it the 2016 Curry who was actually good, the pre 2016 Curry who wasn't, or the 2017 who was worthless?

    I didn’t say his FG % was awful, nor did I even say “awful”. I’d appreciate it if you don’t attribute words to me I didn’t use and not misquote me, if you’re going to respond to me.

    He is our worst offensive player, based on the fact he has no offensive skill set. Put back dunks and alley oops are the extent of his offense.

    We have no clue who his replacement is. If I recall correctly, didn’t Zach play mostly with Ed Davis? Seems like that might be a tough hard to replace someone when they consistently played together.

    I never said Ed Davis wasn’t a good player, either.

    Seems like your post is filled with stuff that was pulled out someones ass to respond to me. This post is complete shit as it relates to what I stated, particularly given the post seemingly attributes things I never said to me and makes some very interesting logical leaps that leave a bit to be desired.

    I don’t entirely disagree. My point is... I don’t think Ed Davis is a functional player in the playoffs in the modern NBA.

    I can’t believe I’m about to say this but...

    Simply having Meyers Leonard out there, in the playoffs, provides more for our offense than Ed Davis, particularly because you can’t realistically play Ed with Nurk.

    Ed is a great rebounder, but being a complete joke on the offensive end more than negates that, in my opinion.
