If colorism is why Curry is hated, why is Allen Iverson one of the most revered players of all time?

[Fenian]

It's not colourise at all. As OP said people on here love the likes of AI and carter and hate bron. shyt people love bird on this site and he's white.

Yous just need to accept some people just don't like curry for a variety of reasons.

chuck the gawd did his own dirty work
they give him his due for running head first into the fire
he was a one mane team that won and lost on his own the gift and curse of his career

the curry issue is how supporters feel that in order to back him you have to compare him with other players and diss other players to do it

we know he's a goat tier shooter playing on a great team that plays a extremely entertaining style of basketball and he's getting numbers but you still should have enough sense to separate what he can do as an individual player vs. what he's accomplishing due to team/coaching etc.

quit pitting him up against players in imaginary match ups he wouldn't win and everyone would be able to enjoy what he's doing without the arguments and beefs

so posters here gonna act like AI and Vince motherfukking Carter were loved by everybody? why do you only remember the good things and act like the bad things didn't even exist?

Carter used to be called heartless, quitter, and loser. Iverson is probably the most polarizing NBA player ever. Yeah some people really loved him, and other (including older players and coaches) really really hated him. They called him selfish, immature, and cancer in the locker room.

that wasn't even too long ago lol

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

I see people saying Ai isn't lightskinned... so what is light skinned then? AI is not exactly Manute Bol...? In Africa AI would be seen as light skinned and curry would be seen as white or coloured even though both parents are African American and his hair is natural. Curry is super light skinned AI is slightly light skinned same tone as me.

Until I saw Jason Kidd with hair I didn't even know he was black

The league, fans, and other players fukking LOVE Curry. Any "hate" he gets is understandable competitive rivalries. EVERY player worth his salt wants to come at the King and right now at this moment Curry is King. And to his credit he's kept himself pretty bulletproof. His wife is loving and loyal. His parents are cool. His daughter is an adorable angel just waiting to get her own YouTube channel. When the worst that's happened to you is that people clowned your mom for old lady twerking your doing phenomenally well in mainstream sports....



Lebron on the other hand, has had to deal with REAL shyt being thrown his way. Dude dealt with ACTUAL modern day racism from Cacs from every angle. The Cleveland Cac's, The Media Cac's, Cac Owners, Cac Coaches. Cac's calling him every name in the book while orgasming at every Heat loss. The same Cac's who judged him for YEARS for not winning a ring drug him through the mud for putting HIMSELF in the best possible situation to get the very thing everybody said he HAD to achieve to be validated. On top of that you had c00ns jumping on the bandwagon saying he was soft, making fun of him having no father growing up, calling his mother a whore, writing this ridiculous narrative that he was "scared" to be the "Man".....

Bruh we're all gunna look back, wonder why So many people hated this nikka and be blown away by it. Watch ...I can't wait for the 30 for 30 on Lebrons career.

Allen could make being ashy a trendy thing b

Allen is the realest nikka in the history of basketball

Steph is the Drake of basketball

This thread is being a little dishonest. Curry isn't hated because he is lightskinned, but it is a factor. And Curry isn't just lightskinned but he fits the narrative of what people considered 'high yellow' stereotypes. Add that to the fact the he is basically breaking every single basketbell rule as a player and on the verge of topping Jordan's single season record. AI was never a threat to do any of that.

 

[AAKing23]

There's different shades of brown between the two extremes of dark skin and light skin. I have a golden brown complexion like Trey Songz and here in the south that's automatically considered light skin

This is where I'm at it's a factor for SOME dudes that dislike him but certaintly not all.

When dark skin black girls constantly mention or say something like "light skin hoe" it's seen as insecurity....and they may have other reasons for not liking a light skin chick but that the fact the chick is light skin adds insult to injury....for some dudes I think it's the same with Steph.

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

He aight to me. I just don't like it when I see people elevate him over guys like kobe and a.i.. Too overhyped.

As far as him being light skinned he gotta a few that'll joke on him being light skinned and dominating.

I think it's more so clowning around than actual hatred.

Same here bro, I'm the same complexion as Damien Lillard and yet all my life mad ppl have considered me light skin
This shyt baffles me because my mom is a good 2 shades lighter than me, she's pretty pale so she's lightskin me I'm golden brown

 

[OG Talk]

nikka look in GS game threads and you can see the outrage cause dude is lightskin. "Lite brite" "Biege nikka" "yellow nikka" why do nikkas on the coli of all placed try to refute this

Interesting...

So do people hate LeBron BECAUSE of his hairline? Or is his hairline a constant source of ridicule because they hate HIM?


Or is it ALL just jokes at the end of the day?

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

lol, AI was an actual thug nikka playing basketball at an elite level. There was never before, or since, a more street nikka in sports as AI. Only Tyson comes close to the level of thuggish nature and even he imo don't top AI. I personally think the complexion argument is stupid, the Curry hate reminds me a lot of the hate that Kobe used to catch. It's almost like a "Hmph, this lil nikka got some nerve to try to play like he's an all time great how dare he." and it's also similar to the Kobe/LeBron hate in that the media has rushed to crown him too.

AI can't compare to that, because we were never forced to acknowledge him by the media. He forced us to simply by having to recognize game.
