Remove the scoring possessions of each top 10 scorer... what does the rest of their team's scoring efficiency look like? Golden State's 52.4 TS% outside of Curry would rank last among teams. They've also shot what would be a by far league worst 46.4 eFG% on open/wide open shots.

If Golden State outside of Steph scored at league average efficiency, their team's overall scoring efficiency would currently rank 8th rather than 24th.

OKC is good without SGA on the floor.

I used to pray for a time like this.

But yeah, Steph needs some help.

Yeah, I think it's one of the metrics that shows the overall system is working.

Good?! Dude that first game had me in awe. I’ve never seen a team stay hot literally throughout the entire game.

Just goes to show how well this team is built honestly. We’re really set up well with the roster we have
