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.

    2016 for me.

    While it’s true that 21-22 wasn’t his best overall, he did start out on fire as a continuation of the ending to 20-21, so that calendar year was among his best ever.

    As a Cavs fan, 2015-2018 Steph.

    2016 Steph regular season is an offensive masterclass.

    30ppg leading the league in scoring while leading the league in efficiency as well at 67% True Shooting. His 3pt shooting has been elite in all of those years but 2016 was one of his best finishing years. Super shifty at getting downhill and hitting nearly 70% efficiency near the basket.

    On top of being a walking 4v3 for his team as he picks up defenders onto the perimeter that opens the paint for players like Iggy to get free 2 pointers

    The highest volume 50-40-90 season

    I don’t give a damn about regular season. 2022 Steph was the best player in the playoffs and I would take that Steph over any other.

    It’s 2016 Steph, shit was like watching a circus but it’s a professional athlete playing basketball. He was making shots from anywhere on the court and basically having his way on offense. Every shot that was a bad shot was going in.

    I think 2021-22 Steph was clearly the best. His dribbling was much sharper, he was far better under-pressure and when doubled, and his conditioning let him dominate all game.

    2016 Steph was insane but the league had no idea how to guard him. In 2021 or 2022 he was a better defender, passer, dribbler, rebounder, and could get past more defenses.
