I had this take a few posts earlier, Steph really is underrated.  I think it's hard to truly quantify how much effect his shooting has on everyone else.  (not me, i get it, i'm a stable genius and like, really smart)

Just as a for instance, since Durant went to Golden State, the Warriors have played 3,418 possessions with Steph on the court and KD off.

Offensive Rating: 120.6
Defensive Rating: 104.2
Net Rating: +16.2

They've played 2,569 possessions with KD and without Steph

Offensive Rating: 110.7
Defensive Rating: 106.6
Net Rating: +4.1

They've also played 6,458 possessions with both on the court

Offensive Rating: 125.3
Defensive Rating: 108.4
Net Rating: +16.9

Basically, when Steph plays without Durant, they are nearly  just as good as when Steph and Durant play together.  But when Steph is off the court, they are much, much worse.

Here's one more, 644 possessions when Steph  sits and the other big 3 all play

Offensive rating: 110.1
Defensive Rating: 100.3
Net Rating: +9.8
