If Steph Curry wins another NBA League MVP and NBA Championship this year...

[Dr. Narcisse]

Nah...

Wade played ELITE defense and was putting up 30/8/5/2
Beasley was the 2nd best player on the team.
Steph was better in terms of individual offense (one of the best ever)

But Wade that year was just

Wade was never the best player in the NBA so its hard to say.
At the very least he becomes the 2nd GOAT PG alltime

So basically you're nostalgic, but have enough sense to recognize that Steph at his peak has eclipsed Wade's peak.

...is it safe to say he instantly surpasses Dwyane Wade on the ATG Lists?


I think so. 2 NBA MVPs & 2 Championships > 3 Championships & 1 Finals MVP.


I'm having this discussion right now at the barber shop & half the shop says yes while the other half is saying no.

.....wade got over a decade of hall of fame play. his finals performance is still one of the GOATS. jvg said he still considers it the greatest finals performance of all time.....steph will be there but not yet.

Better team, better offense, because of team success/PER success his season will be more memorable...













not the better all around player though

 

[Savior]

Bill Walton is considered an all-time great, he had 2 great seasons...........

An all time great but no one in their right mind would put him on a top 10, 20, 30 list.....when they call him all time great they're talking like top 100 out of respect for an old head. Wade on the other hand is clearly one of the best of all time at his position and a top 20-30 all time player. To put Curry over him after 2 great seasons is disrespectful as hell

[charmander]

the wade disrespect in this thread is appalling and revolting

 

[madness]

thats bs. wade was an absolute monster the first 8 -9 years of his career.

you can't tell the ADD-stricken kids in this reactionary in-the-moment generation shyt. they don't remember what happened 8-9 weeks ago, much less 8-9 years ago.

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

He really didn't start being exceptional until last year

As you can see, they're already starting to try to rewrite history on that

 

[Brozay]

I think Wade in 09 is better than Curry right now

edit

thought this was about LBJ. Curry needs more time b4 we start talking all time stuff but his peak there with just about anyone

Just brought back memories of 2010 playoffs Wade - dude was unstoppable. It didn't matter if Jesus, Pierce, Rondo or Allen was on him; or whether he was doubled or triple teamed, he was cookin them all. Even Garnett couldn't fukk with him in the paint.

 

[HabeeNo]

Wade would still have more titles, at the very least the same amount of Finals MVP's, more all-star & All-NBA selections, more All-Defensive selections and better overall career stats

If Curry continues at this pace then there's a very real possibility he will surpass Wade one day but instantly? Nah.

Really well said, repped
