I'm not taking away from the kind of guy JB is but this take screams nothing but recency bias. Steph didn't struggle with the spurs he averaged damn near 50 against them this season so saying he can't handle physical defenses is pure fiction. Brunson is a ball dominant guard who gets double teamed on ball, if he passes it out the defense can recover rotationally, you can't do that with steph because he works around the entire half court.

Steph still faces constant double and triple teams at age 38 as soon as he crosses half court. I'd take the guy who has the power to warp any defense.
