Rank Em: 2009 Chris Paul, 2011 Derrick Rose, 2015 Stephen Curry

Unnecessary element?

We just saw arguably the greatest playoffs performance from a PG since Magic, and you deem that an unnecessary extra element all because one of them performed badly during that postseason?

Yes

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

All their playoff games

That's not enough, even so, surely you would've see teams swarming Curry at the top of the 3-pt line in every series. And surely you would've noticed that the Warriors actually don't have an array of shooters. And surely you would've noticed that Curry was one of the very few players on the team that could create their own shot.

CP3 averaged 23ppg that season, fukk wrong with you? 23ppg 11apg and 5rpg isn't a complete game? CP3 that year was unstoppable and efficient

cp3 couldn't play off the ball. if you made cp3 a primary scorer, your team would lose.

i wanna pick Rose but Curry got a championship. Wasn't that the year Rose got hurt in the playoffs? Paul was great that year but he didn't win MVP

1. Curry
2. Rose
3. Paul

SO YOURE SAYING WITH A STRAIGHT FACE..
REPLACE BOGAWD WITH KLAY
AND ROSES NUMBERS DONT IMPROVE...

LOL




​

What numbers are you talking about specifically? Would Rose even have the opportunity to shoot the ball 23/24 times a game with Klay on his team, with the rest of the Bulls starters? What about the fact that Rose played with Boozer and Deng? 2011 Boozer although isn't the defensive player Draymond is, he's certainly equal on the offensive end. Like Deng, he was certainly close to Thompson as well. It's not as straight forward as replacing Bogans with Thompson.

One thing's for sure, Rose at 22 isn't better than what we've seen from Curry this past season. It's an unfair comparison, for that simple fact. I don't know why dudes are even mentioning Paul as the #1, since when the fukk did he show any capability of carrying the #1 scoring load in the playoffs?

Damn. I was expecting Rose to be a runaway. Athletically, he was as frightening as Curry's ability to get hot with the jumper.

1. DRose
2. Curry
3. CP3

They wouldn't improve by much if at all. Maybe a couple more assists but Rose is an inefficient scorer. The addition of Klay would take away shots & probably points from Rose

Rose got hurt in the first playoff game of the following season

U must have stop watching basketball before the playoffs started thinking rose was better than Curry

This has gotten absurd

 

[ManBearPig]

I don't think Rose is in this discussion...

The numbers tell me Chris Paul makes a great case but I always remember dude being passive in the playoffs and he was not as much a scoring threat as Curry.

So it's close but I would go with Curry. He torched teams in the playoffs (besides a few blips here and there) and won the championship.

Even Shaq in that 2000 Championship run had a couple of bad games.


More games played= more Chances for subpar performances

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

This has gotten absurd

When has Paul ever proven he can carry the scoring load in the playoffs like Curry has? Serious question. He's not that type of player, he's even admitted so.

 

[ManBearPig]

ROSE WON 62 GAMES IN 2011
AND MADE THE ECF.

DOES HE WIN 70+ AND A CHIP WITH KLAY
INSTEAD OF KEITH BOGAWD STARTING AT THE 2?




​

Doubt it since Rose was never the player that Curry currently is.

Curry surpassed Rose's career high 3 times already in one season lol.

The difference with this is, when has Paul ever had a postseason run even close to what Curry has just done? Paul typically shoots 15 times a game in the playoffs, that's simply not enough to win games.

He can't score on the level of Curry. If that's what you meant, then I agree
