3. Stephen Curry

Stephen Curry is no longer the focal point of the Golden State Warriors offense, but he’s still a big reason why they are so dangerous. During the playoffs, Curry is averaging 29 points, six rebounds and six assists. He’s also shooting 43 percent from three-point range.

Curry finally looks healthy. He looks like that guy that one back-to-back NBA MVPs. Question is, will he continue to play on this level in the NBA Finals? Last season, he never quite looked like himself, and it’s probably the biggest reason why they aren’t attempting to three-peat right now.

Nevertheless, if the Warriors get the same Steph Curry that they’ve gotten through the first three rounds in the playoffs, the NBA Finals might not last all that long. And that’s a good thing for the Warriors.
