Ok, I have spent some time the last few days trying to help the "Durant best eva!" crowd get a grip on reality.
Let's try this again.
Initially, I thought that Durant > Curry in The Finals. And this would differ from the 2016-17 regular season and full playoffs if true.
Then I went over to NBA Wowy and saw this. I apologize if this has already been posted. This is for the 2017 Finals:
Curry on, Durant on -----------> 125.4 ORTG; 105.9 DRTG; +19.5 NRTG
Curry on, Durant off -----------> 118.6 ORTG; 105.2 DRTG; +13.4 NRTG
Curry off, Durant on -----------> 109.6 ORTG; 106.5 DRTG; +03.1 NRTG
Durant didn't carry anyone anywhere.
Bad eye tests are why advanced stats exist. Bad eye tests and flashy stats that might not tell you everything.
Durant had a great Finals, and deserved the FMVP, but the "carry Curry" thing is a joke.
EDIT ----> This data appears flawed, as there seems something amiss currently on the NBA Wowy site. So this data may very well not be accurate.
