Looks to me like Durant has taken over this team. He is clearly the best player on the team, and if this performance continues should win the finals MVP.

So is this Durant's team now, and does his explosion cut into Curry's productivity going forward?

LOL these super teams are making unworthy coaches win NBA championships.

Isn't that called the KC effect?

Durant is way better but it still feels like Stephs team to me.

Perhaps a bit like Boston where KG was the best and most important player but it still felt like Paul's team.

On the same note, did Miami ever become Lebron's team when he was there?

I felt it was his the whole time, but certainly after the first year

It's both, and that's why they're so dang good.

A lot of what durant did was because of the attention curry was getting. The cavs were so afraid of curry shooting threes they opted to leave durant for open lay-ups to the basket.

This was a question for the dysfunctional OKC team that Durant left. Pointless question in GS. Heck, Green is as much a team leader as anyone.

Agreed. He was clearly the alpha dog in Miami.

It's Stevin Curant's team. Or Kephen Durry's.

Curry's team, but Durant is better. It's not all that different from the 2008 Celtics in that sense.

Yeah. It was amazing how many open looks role players got because of people going out on Steph or Klay. I remember in the 3rd quarter Klay curled off a screen causing 2 cavs defenders to try and contest, which led David West wide-open under the basket, and he then dished to a cutting Draymond from the corner. Mind you Klay was like 2-18 at that point, and he's still creating that much attention. It's amazing their value on the court.
