Thanks to the Golden State Warriors' sweep of the Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference finals despite missing Kevin Durant, appreciation of Stephen Curry's value is beginning to peak again. Facing a tenacious Blazers team while missing Durant, DeMarcus Cousins and, for a significant stretch, Andre Iguodala, Curry averaged 36.5 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game while shooting 42.6 percent from deep. The entire series was a reminder that before Durant signed with Golden State, Curry was the most dangerous weapon of a franchise that terrified the NBA.
