How come Steph Curry gets a pass on ball hogging

[Bay Area]

I never called anyone a chucker and I'm not trying to “school” anyone. I'm trying to find out what you believe about fga's in relation to assists because of what you posted. To answer your questions, he could cut his fga's down to the same amount as pass-first PG's like CP3, Rondo, Parker, etc, which is 10-14 fga's per game and give the rest to Klay, David, Bogut and the rest of his guys.

He averages more assists than all the PG's you listed besides CP3. Telling a 46% JUMP SHOOTER to shoot LESS is ridiculous, we are talking about someone who may go down as the best shooter of all time. Give the rest to Klay? That nikka has games where he cant throw it in the ocean, he was 6-18 last night how many more shots should he be given? Pass to Bogut? His offense hasnt been the same since the freak elbow injury on the Bucks. Lee averages 14 shots per game he is a 3rd option that is plenty of attempts. nikkas are cherry picking.

He only averages more assists than Parker; not Rondo or CP3. Everyone has bad nights but Klay is a 54.7% True Shooter on the season, so what's wrong with giving him more shots when he isn't the PG? Why is 14 attempts plenty for a 56.7% True Shooter who isn't the PG? No one's “cherry-picking”. Guys like Kobe and 'Melo are criticized for the amount of shots they take, even tho they take less than people who play PG like Lj, no matter how good they are at shooting, no matter how void their team is of reliable shooters, and regardless of the fact that they don't play the PG like Lj does.

David is averaging almost 19 points and 10 rebounds, how good do you think he is? His shots come within the flow of the game, you are stat checking rather than watching what happens IN game. David Lee would be a fukking hall of famer if he needed MORE touches and was averages like 25 points a game. Curry aka the best shooter of this generation is averaging 4 more shots than streaky Klay Thompson, I challenge you to find ANY Warriors fan or anyone who has watched most Warriors games to tell you that Klay needs MORE shots. nikkas criticize Melo and Kobe because they are seen as black holes at times, SHOW me analysts, fans, etc other than coli nikkas who dont watch Warriors games that would consider Curry a black hole. You take Currys offense off this team we probably would be in the 9th seed on the outside looking in. Stats dont mean shyt if you arent seeing the context visually from watching the actual game. You obviously have an agenda bruh but its not credible at all.

Agenda? Some sports fans are so used to being trolled that they're paranoid. How can a 5x champ be a “black hole”? Steph won't catch him; I don't care who he plays with. I do watch film and what I see is Steph is an overrated shooter. He gets most of his buckets off of screens and plays drawn up by Mark to get him open in other ways. He's no Kobe or 'Melo. He can't shoot efficiently on 1 foot over double-teams with a hand in his face consistently like those guys. Analysts? Yea, they're anal alright. There's no such thing as analysts anymore. That went out with the 80's. There's only brain-washers now, who do so to keep their jobs or move up the latter. Same with the news, TV shows, movies, and every other form of media. Do you have any idea how much money has gone into making the world believe Lj is the “best player in the world” and that “his passing skills” (which, are fair at best) got him 2 ch'ips and the fact that he's in South Beach with Wade, Bosh, and as someone said on here before, “one of the best groups of 3pt shooters ever assembled” had absolutely nothing to do with it? I would add that it's also because he was handed both rings by Stern on a silver, very rigged, platter.

You brought up Kobe not me, I was just telling you why he gets criticized.. You say Curry gets most his buckets off screens yet he takes and makes more unassisted shots than anyone on the team and at a high percentage. You have to realize that teams focus on Curry when they game plan against us. Curry draws double and triple teams almost every time and thats why David Lee and Klay are even open in the first place. Teams leave Iggy wide open at the 3 point line. This is a debate for the sake of having a debate, Curry has never shot us out of a game and when we lose it definitely isnt because other cats arent getting enough shots. Like I said Curry was 10-21 last night while the rest of the team combined for like 17-58. Next time you watch a Warriors game pay close attention. You will see Jermaine Oneal doing ISO post ups, David Lee trying to ISO from the top of the key, Harrison getting stripped off a ISO in traffic, etc.. Curry is the MVP of this team and anyone that is paying attention can see that.

I said “Curry gets most of his off of screens and plays drawn up by Mark to get him open in other ways”. Curry is not the only one who spaces the floor and draws double-teams. He's benefiting from David and Klay being good shooters in their own right. He may “take and make more unassisted shots than anyone on the team, and at a high percentage” but they don't have to be “assisted” to be open and most of Steph's shots are uncontested because of screens and other plays that are drawn up and because there is a lot of attention on Klay and David. In the same way, most of Klay's and David's shots are uncontested because of screens and other plays that are drawn up and because there is a lot of attention on Steph.

 

[TheNig]

The nikka 26 so he's not exactly a spring chicken.

This piss colored nikka chucked up some of the worst shots known to man.

Why does he get a pass on this?

Becuz he fun to watch

 

[Recca Gatsby]

Is there anybody else in the league that draws triple teams like Curry does?

Nonsense. David Lee's mid range shot has been gone this whole season, he thrives off Currys pick and roll passes. Curry isnt the only one who spaces the floor but he definitely is the only one that gets double teamed. To say most of Stephs shots are uncontested is also untrue. He has one the fastest release on his shot in the league, he gets off shots when the defender only gives him an inch to put it up. Klay is getting better at driving this season but he cannot score off the dribble, Curry sets all that up. Curry has missed like 3 games this season, look up those games and check our record and shooting percentages of Lee and Klay in those games.

Kobe (before the injury) and 'Melo.

Its obvious some people dont watch the Dubs regularly. They see one game or see some highlights of a game on tv and start running they mouth thinkin they educated bout the game.

If I'm one of the people you're referring to, and lay down your cape. I watch a lot of Warriors games because I like the team and I like Steph's game and he seems to be a good guy. That said, I consider him to be an overrated shooter. You're actually runnin' your mouth, making assumptions about info you couldn't possibly be privy to. Y'all foolishly assume that people who don't consider Steph to be the best thing that ever happened to shooting, are either trolling or they watch very few games. It's just not so. I have this problem with Lj's stanbase when I present evidence that he's only a great athlete and not a great b-ball player. Your comment about “highlights” and “seeing one game” is very ironic and very telling. You will never see a full game or any highlights of a full game where most of Kobe's or 'Melo's shots are wide open, whether from screens, mismatches, other plays drawn to free them up, another great shooter spreading the floor ( if JR came to your mind), teams falling asleep, or anything else because those 2 will go Wilt Chamberlain on you. You will see that with Lj, but not with those 2.

What's nonsense is you trying to sell that people aren't paying attention to David's shooting abilities and that they're standing around and letting him shoot. Novak has been a disaster for probably 2 to 3 years now, but teams aren't gonna just let him shoot. Steve Novak has a quick release too. That just means they can shoot before the defender can prevent their look, which you just conceded. Guys like Kobe and 'Melo don't get inches. Plenty of guys that can't put it on the floor are still able to space the floor a ton. E.G. Danny Green and Steve Novak. Steph, Klay, and David all space the floor for each other in the same way KD and Westbrook do.

David does not space the floor homie. Teams leave him open from mid range all the time, he hasnt even attempted the shot much this year. He will dribble in and try to back his man down or face up and drive. Again, you're trying to school me on my team that I watch every game on all season. Also to compare Novak to Curry is ridiculous, one is a set shooter the other shoots off the dribble and does it at a higher volume yet is still more efficient.

Look at this shooting chart and his percentages and tell me thats spacing the floor
