Is Steph Curry on his way to passing up Zeke & Stockton & being the 2nd best PG after Magic?

Who cares?

Curry is literally on another planet than Zeke as a scorer.

23.8 (63% TS) on Zeke's 21-23 PPG (52% TS).

The difference between Curry and Zeke's scoring is like...the difference between Prime Lebron and Paul George before the injury.

Honestly, it's hard to put into words at exactly how big a difference 10% is when you're talking about TS% but imagine Paul George vs. Prime Lebron or even Rudy Gay vs. Prime Lebron.

Curry scores more on VASTLY, VASTLY, VASTLY higher efficiency and while playing less minutes.

The game is tailored to perimeter players today.

Put Zeke in the league today and there's no reason why he can't average 27-11 in his prime. The pistons shared the ball as well and played team basketball.

Defenses were a lot less complex back then plus a much higher pace and a lack of transition defense...Curry could average 30-12 if he played 38 minutes a game back in that day.

Curry is so much more efficient than Zeke that it's stupid to even compare them when it comes to scoring. The difference is like comparing Lebron to Paul George or Durant to Pippen. You wanna argue against Curry, you gotta do something that isn't PPG, because it's not even worth discussing scoring.

1 great season and dudes really want to crown him GOAT:mjlol: The LeBron/MJ argument is more valid and i don't think LBJ is on Jordan's level. If Curry can play like this the majority of his career then yes he'll be better than Stockton & company, but until then let's be patient and let his career play out.

He isn't 1/2 the defender that Stockton was ...

He isn't 1/2 the passer Magic was...

He needs to get another ring before he's in the same class as Zeke...

His assist to turnover ration was horrible in The Finals, but "Chicks dig the long ball" :skip:

If being a great PG has evolved into "n1gga that makes a gang of 3's" then he should be #1 on everybody's list...

It should be measured by how much impact you have on a game. :ld:

Steph getting ready to hit overrated status.

Got the title, MVP.

Commercials, Video Game cover. No longer the underdog.

He made it.

injuries are going to get Curry real soon, you dont start your career injury prone and become durable as you get older.

I give him credit for improving so much in so little time.
