What version of Steph do you think is the best? (alien.top)

2016, 2021, and maybe 2017 and 2019 are the versions of Steph that immediately come to mind as peak Steph years.

Even though Steph got his Finals MVP in 2022, he had his worst regular season since like 2013, and his overall playoff numbers weren't quite as good as some of his other years so I probably wouldn't say this was peak Steph.

2016 is the best relative to the league but that's also because the league had absolutely no idea what to do with his extreme shooting ability.

It's hard to know what to do with the last 3 years. 2021 had some of that same shooting magic from earlier in his career (he had that week with 4 games of 10+ made threes). 2022 had a horrific regular season shooting slump but obviously a terrific playoff run capped off by a dominant Finals against an elite defense. 2023 had a more normal regular season but some terrible shooting against the Lakers as well as a defensive dropoff from 2022 (which I think is his best defensive season of the 3).
