Was there a moment you got ridiculed or downvoted to hell for stating your opinion or prediction at first, but later got vindicated despite the majority disagreeing with you? If you could even share the link to your comment, that would be awesome.

That factoid about Butler surprises me as he is one of the best stealsman I've ever seen.

Also yeah Curry's arms are laughably short in comparison to his body. Something is wrong with Curry or something - how is he the best shooter ever but his arms are so unusually short!? These short arms also show up on defense , look at how many times tall shooters like Danny Greens, Ingles have just risen up over Curry and just demolished him time and again. Curry just seems like a one way value player , every time I've seen Curry put in effort to stop rim rockers who can just do damage to a rim.due to their vertical and strength Curry has failed like 99% of the time. This kid CANNOT block up the backline and its kinda laughable lol. His shooting, gravity and playmaking more than make up for this lack of D only when you surround him with defensive bigs. See? This is why GSW is always hard-on for centres and big forwards(well...usually.I have no idea why GSW would put Payton II next to Curry. Won't big teams realized that they can just run big lineups that'll demolish them every time. And sure Curry and Payton ii are some of the best stealsmen ever and are defensively positive...But are they defensively positive enough to stop a team that has a bunch of size? like Denver? Like ... the lakers? -_-)
