The Harden vs Curry Battle

He also has the gravity advantage. Steph gets doubled from 35 feet basically every time he runs a PnR and causes chaos when he's off-ball running of screens. Gravity's become a meme on this sub but it's a really big part of Steph's value, it's the reason there's such a huge discrepancy in his on/off numbers vs his 3 all star teammates (and everyone else on GSW).
