I get that and all but the Spurs would be considered that from #1 overall defense and biggest differential points in NBA history for the first I think 48 or 50 games or some shyt I saw
#1 opp ppg
#1 pt differential
#1 opp 3pts made per game and attempted
And some
Other shyt I saw didn't feel
Like putting up
You can't go by opponents points per game as a scale of how good a defense is - it doesn't take pace into account.
Points differential is 50/50 offense and defense
Spurs hold teams to 32.4% on 19.3 three-point attempts and the Warriors hold teams to 32.0% on 22.8 attempts

With that said, why do you think me stating that the Warriors are a historically great defensive team takes away from how the Spurs are performing on that end this season - who have been the best and most consistent team on defense up to this point?

let espn nerd statistician tell u how of a great player steph cury is brehs

like someone said b4 we live in a hype beast era..

steph is a great(one of the best in history) 3pt shooter n nothin more..

his drive to the basket ain't as smooth as tony parker, kyrie, wall or aggressive as Westbrook..

His crossover is wack as hell son..ain't really flashy like AI or Kyrie Irving.. Boy ain't got that swag what *we* black ppl identify with...Its like watchin Albino AI play bball son..

one of worst pg defender in the league, ain't as built or explosive as Alpha Westbrook or D Rose b4 the injury...His shooting makes up for all of his inadequate skills to make him into that top 25 player all time..

But let ESPN hype beast era convince you he's in the same league as a Jordan/Kobe brehs..:russell:
His drive aint as SMOOTH like
His crossover is wack and ain't really FLASHY like
He ain't as BUILT or EXPLOSIVE as


So basically instead of breaking down his perceived and pushed value/game, you talk about how he's not as aesthetically pleasing as other players :heh:

If curry is better than Iverson, Jordan, Kobe etc and runs the best team ever. Threads like these kinda matter:ld: I mean he's only giving up 40 ppg to opposing pgs.

Why is Iverson grouped with Kobe and Jordan though. And whenever anyone compares Curry to those two, it's usually an offense only (or scoring) discussion

He's not giving up remotely close to that to his matchup

It's not nitpicking when it's a trend you fukking buffoon. :mjlol:
I'm not going to call you names if I can't say to your face..

But,the dude is still nice on that court. And none of those cats can stop him either. He's dropping 30, 40 & 50 burgers on dudes too! It's the best position on the court night to night.

like i said...he's a great 3pt shooter n nothing else...once that starts to fade, you'll see how of an average player he really is.. :sas2:

Being aesthetically pleasing goes a long way.. its the essence..its what defines a great skill level player from just another average player..:martin:

if you take away steph 3pt shot, look how limited his game becomes..on the otha hand AI got so many weapons @ his disposal, it don't even matter if ain't shootin well, he can still kill you.

Espn really fukked it up for yall generations man. bunch of nerds statisticians..take that shyt back to baseball..:mjlol:
watch these n get back to me if he's in the same league as these players

If you've watched basketball pre 2013 you would know that Iverson was kinda of a big deal. But I'm sure cats like you think he's an equivalent to someone like John wall in today's era. And again offense is nice but giving up career numbers to opposing point guards your supposed to be guarding on a nightly basis is troubling. But you just keep closing your eyes and pretending like this ain't happening.
