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.
I mean in 2021 he was a better shooter than 2022, and still has those improvements from 2016. He was the same player, so why not say that year? Is making the playoffs the real x-factor?
