Despite amazing scoring still, Steph's playmaking metrics have completely fallen through the floor this year so far

The assists are down because of CP3. He’s playing off ball more when he plays with CP, who has started about half the games this season.

The turnovers are fueled by dementia that’s been spurred on by his old age

The first half of your comment: 100% correct, all the assists are going to CP and the rest go to Draymond

The second half: LOL

Literally the only Warriors players getting big minutes who are shooting above average from 3 are Dario Saric (38%) and Draymond (46%, but he’s only 11/24 on the season and being left open). Klay is up to 36%, but CP is only 33% and Wiggins is a pathetic 27% lol. So he’s getting fewer playmaking opportunities, while also having his teammates shoot poorly when he passes to them. I’m sure Dray and CP’s assists are boosted substantially because they can pass to Steph. The Warriors really don’t have a great roll-man either, so Steph is just stuck passing to sub-par shooters and a slumping Klay.

Steph’s on-off numbers are negative but still the best of the starting lineup. He’s -2, Klay and Dray are a -3 and Wiggins is -7.5 lmao. CP3 is a +5.6, it almost makes me wonder if Kerr should just bench Wiggins and start CP and Steph together, then have Steph anchor the bench units while CP rests.
