QUESTION: Isn't Austin Rivers basically another Stephen Curry?

[Rick Roller 10]

b-b-but they're both light skinned....haha. I see we got some Curry fans here. Yea, I watched Curry at Davidson. He was on another level, But Rivers with a green light on that same Davidson team would've averaged 20+ easily.
No one knew Curry would be this good. But I remember skip Bayless predicting it

Keep Curry's name out your mouth when comparing Rivers to someone...

I remember a time when most people thought Curry wouldn't make it in the NBA

even Austin Rivers

I think you're right about their similarities. The only true difference between the two is that Steph has a higher basketball IQ and a far better jumper.

Austin Rivers will beast. Mark my words. Fukk dook

I think he could turn into a prime Arenas

You guys obviously haven't watched much of Rivers, just going off what people are saying clearly.

+the automatic Duke hate

the kid will do fine in the NBA, in the right system he can score 20+ a game in a couple years once he polishes up his game

I think he's more like Drew Barry or Coby Karl. He's not going to as good as Damien Wilkins.

Blackthoughts why the hell did you up this thread? There is literally no reason for you to have done this, except to just have more Warriors threads on the first page. No one believes Rivers is anywhere near Curry and you know this.

Rivers is trash

I upped it because Rivers is stinking up the joint.

No.

He too slow and can't dribble

Curry isn't fast. He relies more on fluidity, dribbling and feints than raw speed. The same is true of Rivers.

Curry is an average athlete just like Rivers. They have similarly weak fukkboy bodies.

The main reason Curry does so much off the dribble and spot up shooting is because he's weak.
