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 Steph was a better scorer but 2022 Steph was far more well rounded. Physically stronger, better defender, tighter handle, better passer, smarter decision maker, etc. The main thing that declined from 2016 was his speed but he improved in so many other areas

Yeah 2016 Steph was still a huge liability on D because he lacked the strength and wisdom. He improved a fair amount on the defensive end.
