A fair comparison would be LeBron's first 7 years in the league compared to Curry's first 7 years.
i never agreed with this premise

i mean just look at them overall in their life. you have a twenty eight year old man vs a twenty eight year old man. why not look at who accomplished more? doesnt bron get MORE respect for having longer time in the league?

You have no reason to believe that would work. His current team isn't even built around him. It's built around Klay and Curry and it still took the Triangle and playing no one in the Playoffs for him to get to the Finals. Take those bigs off the team to set those moving screens and he's not even Korver. You can't build around a guy who spends all night running from defenders.
:scust: at @Originalman dappin this. The unbridled hate is real.

Well if you actually believe that then you're a fukking idiot and I'd be wasting my time talking to you. :mjlol:

Impossible because you believe it too. That's why you keep "wasting your time talking to me" and still can't seem to find that real rebuttal. :camby:

That's stupid. Curry ain't gonna be the same player at 31. :heh:

How do you know that, and how is that stupid? You don't compare Curry to LeBron from a career standpoint because one is just beginning his while the other has already done enough to be crowned top 5 all time. The comparisons between them are just in recent seasons.

Either compare them at the same age or at the same point in their careers.

Every other comparison is null and void.

That doesn't make any sense. You compare players based on how they're performing today when ranking the best in the league. What they did in the past doesn't mean anything if they aren't playing up to that level now

If its a prime comparison then sure, use LBJ's best year and compare that to Curry's best. Age is irrelevant guys "put it all together" at different stages. I thought Kobe hit his peak at 29/30

No, sustained greatness is a bad thing, just like taking every team you're on to the Finals 6 years in a row is worse than missing the playoffs entirely. :troll:

I see this a lot. Why do Curry fans think he like just got drafted? :mjlol: Is it because he still looks like a little kid? Or another attempt to push the agenda of Lebron being old and Curry is the new young thing (despite there only being a 3 yr age difference)? Or is it because Curry stans started watching basketball in the last couple years so thats pretty much when Curry started playing, right? Its all about you innit? :mjlol:
