Melo: There’s an argument to rank Steph above Bron

[Tupac in a Business Suit]

Beat me to it

People call it the Kobe era where he was rotating between HOF to carry him to rings meanwhile Dungawd was out here getting it done with dudes who didn't speak english and Devin Brown

This Is tha Coli where logic, critical thinking and reasoning is abandoned. Still I don’t hold it against them for the same reasons, it’s the Coli and if everyone thought with the above the world would be boring. Better but boring.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Agreed with most. But Dork carried in ways that Steph never did...sir Steph as the no doubt main guy has done way more than Dork. That 2011 title has done so much to clean up that bum and how he's looked


He was viewed as a soft choker before then. Steph got a no-doubt ring and a 73-win season before his biggest choke, then followed up with a ring in 2022 with Andrew Wiggins as his number two. Have shame.

Dirk choked in 2007. Nelly knew how to stop him because he trained him. That 67 win squad wins it all if not for GSW....they swept the season series against the Mavs, so they should have been a hint when you only lose 15 games and 4 come against the same squad.

2006 - Refball. League figured Bron would be "that nikka" but he needed a foil...D-Whistle. Dallas beat em up in the regular season and through 2.90 games of the finals series. Stern didn't want a sweep. Tilted the scales towards Miami and then the floodgates opened. If not for the ticky tack calls, Dallas gets through Game 3 and finishes them off in 4 or 5.

Outside of that...when has Dirk really choked? They beat who they were supposed to beat and mostly lost when they weren't as good.

My point still stands. If Dirk had 4 rings like Steph, he would be Top 10, but NO ONE would call him GOAT....and if Prime Dirk had Klay/KD, I'm certain he wins a couple of more rings too.

Lebron is on steroids so yeah

 

[mastermind]

I'm offended by Melo's hat

 

[RedBull]

There’s an argument to rank anybody over everybody. Why yall mad? Ain’t no clear cuts no matter where you rank them.

 

[Stick Up Kid]

This is stupid.

2018 LeBron is the 3rd greatest player of all time..

Behind 1993 MJ and 2009 Kobe.

So you're saying you wouldn't even hear out someone's argument if they said Steph is higher than Bron? I just don't think it's an insane argument to throw out. For example, someone could argue their peak as players is on the table just based on how those two games played out. France left both KD and Bron wide open and Steph shot a double team contested three. No one thought it was stupid to leave a top 5 all time player and top 20 all time player open because Steph was that dangerous as a player. It's not as concrete as Bron's stats, but that level of effect on a game counts as pretty solid evidence to me. It's similar to someone arguing Moss is better than Jerry. I don't think so, but it's not insane to say.

Is Steph higher than Kobe?


If we gonna rank steph top 3 then cool.


I can't take these arguments seriously because of people's agendas

Stwph got 4 rings 3 off of LeBozo. Steph is better than LeDiva. Kobe got 5 rings, 5>4

 

[Ohene]

Steph is definitely above Kobe

 

[Torrential]

What steph did to those celtics in Boston.....Is legendary. Hit them green fakkits with the night night

Lebron never at any point in his career had more swag than that

 

[Osmosis]

Oh I know. I just wanted some a$$hole to come on here and cry about it. I love both guys but Duncan was belongs in the discussion if we are using those metrics.

Duncan and Steph are both ahead of Kobe. Media is already planting the seeds for Steph to be ranked ahead of Kobe when his career is over.

Duncan nor Steph is above Kobe. Duncan shiit the bed n the finals twice. Once he won because Rasheed Wallace is an idiot and the other he lost against Miami. He also had two teammates win FMVP. Ain't that the knock against both Steph and Kobe?
