If you've ever been overseas then you know its a stupid argument to even have....Bron aint even the most popular NBA player let alone athlete....

Messi,Ronaldo,Djokovic,Federer,Nadal,and probably a couple golfers and several more soccer players are ahead of the most popular NBA player globally by a wide margin...
You have a weird obsession with hating on the NBA. This is like the 5th post I've seen from you in NBA threads talking shyt

And that asian following, he is already turning into the face of the NBA, Kevin Durant is being skipped

Durant didnt want the spot so :yeshrug:

nikka most the brehs I know are the most flaky, bandwagon, short attention span dikkriders.

Cacs are way more loyal to their teams than nikkas.

They're also way more emotionally invested.

I always side with black tho and you know when push comes to shove cacs support whichever team is disproportionately white or appears that way example the Patriots.

When it comes to Basketball, no they're not. When the Hawks/Wiz were bad, only nikkas showed up. Same thing with the Sixers now. Pistons arena is in the burbs so that's a bit different

Curry is small, has light skin and green eyes, and grew up rich. Average cacs are basically trying to half-claim him and they have told me as much. He doesnt dominate with thunderous dunks and scary blackleticism, but with jacking up ill-advised shots and playground moves. This makes every kid in America think "Hey if he can do it, why can't I? :krs:"

Entitled brats love the Warriors because they see themselves in the team.

when u say the people u mean everybody
but i can tell u whites love ur Dubs way way way more then nikkaz

What a ridiculous take.

I'm black and I love the Dubs because I think Steph Curry is the exact type of guy I want young black kids to look up to. I root for the Seahawks and Russell Wilson for the same reason. Am I a CAC/c00n now? :mjlol:


I also think Curry is good for the game. Exciting play. He's someone that people of all backgrounds can take a liking to. It's good for the game to have a clean cut star be the face of your sport. MJ in the 90s (despite having personal baggage that the general public was unaware of at the time) took the NBA to heights that it's never seen before

Okay I exaggerated. I did see you talk shyt about the NBA's ratings a few weeks back and claim that low ratings is why they didnt get a primetime spot on ABC.

Point is that Lebron is the most popular athlete in North America and that's who we're counting in the ratings, North Americans.

I didn't say black people cant love the Warriors, I explained why white fans, especially casual ones, love them and especially Curry. Its not ridiculous, its factual and I see it every day. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Disagree on Curry being the new face being good for the game. As a person he's a good role model. But a generation of kids growing up trying to play like Steph Curry is a recipe for disaster when it comes to future basketball prospects.

You're right but nikkas who are 6'7 at Age 13 and have an actual chance to make it to the league arent the ones who will be tryna Scurry Like Curry. i'm not talking about gameplay either

He is extremely relatable for people all across the board and from a pure marketing standpoint, he's good for the game. He has a Chris Brown/Beyonce/Drake/RW esque quality of being racially ambiguous enough to be loved by blacks and whites alike.

Durant isnt clean cut. He's been acting like a jackass for the past year

CP3 and Irving are stars in the Basketball world but not good enough to be transcendent talents.

MJ was darkskinned and was a great face for the league, skintone has nothing to do with it. CACs loved that bald muthafukka

Heard on the radio Stephen curry is the most popular athlete among millennials... Whatever that means

He's gonna be the league's new face tho, it's apparent

Nobody thinks they can do what Jordan or Lebron can do because it requires rare athleticism. But I bet most think they can chuck threes like Curry. :heh:
