Thread belongs in the rafters. No matter whether you agree or disagree, it was a pleasure to read the more rational assessments.

Nah. Better crossover and much faster first step but overall handles? Curry has him beat.

Curry uses the same behind the back move every time

Iso Handles are completely different than handles using picks and the strength of your jumpshot as assets.

Iverson was way harder to guard one on one man to man.

Curry is better at protecting the ball cause he's more of a traditional point guard than Iverson and actually has the ball in his hands more

Put Iverson with Klay, Draymond, Speights, Barnes and Iggy, his selfish ass wouldn't know what to do with talent like that. They wouldn't make it out of the 2nd round of the playoffs.

the reverse scenario of chef trying to carry ai's sixers squad to the finals is just as ridiculous

chef is better in certain situations but if i had only one option to go to i take the one man army ai

Curry wasnt off..

Cavs (mainly delly) played great d vs him

Also played good d vs him on Christmas

If they meet again healthy
Best believe cavs taking it
The looks that Curry was gettin he normally knocks down, and wit the way the Cavs Warriors and Curry been playin this season if they meet again its gon be a massacre by Golden State.

Just say you don't watch Curry. Curry combines various handles and is far more creative with how he creates space. Iverson had a lightning fast crossover but he didn't really use a bunch of dribble moves because he had such a quick first step.

Curry is a more creative and shifter ball-handler, he's much better at throwing in slight feints and fakes to get defenders to bite, and he's better at protecting the ball.

Coach of the year, 6th man of the year, elite defense, and DPOTY.

Curry is dropping 30 PPG in like 33 minutes. You don't think he could drop 35-40 if he played almost ten more minutes? Curry can also play off-ball amazingly (Iverson can't) so trying to triple Curry is just gonna make him play off-ball and he's still almost impossible to guard because his range is 37 feet in.

I always liked Iverson, but a lot of his cross overs in today's NBA would be called a carry. It seems the only way to discredit Curry these days is to say that he isn't as good as so and so 1 on 1, but if that's the argument, who really cares?
