It's funny, first nikkaz wanted to say Laker and Kobe stans were tryna bandwagon Steph. Now that LeBron is an afterthought they start doing fukk shyt like this. Steph's the GOAT shooter, but he's not and never will be Prime Kobe. Only Jordan and Wilt had comparable or better ability on the offensive end, that's no slight on Steph.

I remember how all the Kobestans used to say Kobe was a better scorer than Jordan because he had more range, even though he was equal or worse percentage wise from everywhere on the floor - including 3's, he just shot more of them.

Now we have Curry who has infinitely more range than Kobe, shoots better from anywhere on the floor and his points per 36 minutes is higher than Kobe's in any season, and he's taking several fewer shots to do it, yet those same Kobestans won't appreciate it. Be thankful Curry doesn't need the 4th quarter.

Curry is

Hate the nikka took LeBron's 3rd ring away, but that nikka is pretty good. Need him to get traded to Philadelphia and fade away into obscurity.

Offensively the numbers tell you he's having a better season than anyone not named Wilt.

Then double him all over the court like they did with Kobe. they focus the entire defense in on curry like they did kobe. they go all out trying to stop one guy like they did with kobe.

oh wait, curry's team is FAR AND AWAY BETTER THAN ANY TEAM KOBE PLAYED WITH IN HIS PRIME.

He was surrounded by garbage aside from Odom. He was single handedly carrying the team, Curry could do that alone and has his off nights where STILL win because he has Klay, he has green, he has random role players go off for 20+ points.



He's right :manny: More efficient too.


Prime Kobe would not win a ring with the Warriors as presently constituted. :manny:

Shut the fukk up you ignorant fakkit.

Can't believe anyone would be stupid enough to say Kobe couldn't win with this squad like he didn't win 5 rings in his career.

Prime kobe was an overrated chucker, a taller, more efficient allen iverson.

Curry is not easily compared to any prior players. He has Tim Duncan esque efficiency and is (normally) dedicated to the team game.

Kevin Durant and Curry are both better offensive talents than Kobe.

Kobe was not in his prime as a 22 year old. :martin:
What do you consider his prime? Personally for me 8 > 24.

I guarantee you Steph, right now with the way he's playing can win titles back to back with that lakers squad from 08-10.

Why are people bringing up shot attempts?

Did you want Smush to get more shots up? Is Smush Klay now? Is Kwame=Bogut?

His second leading scorer in 05/06 was Odom at 14 PPG and then Smush and Mihm had 10 a piece. I dare you to compare these rosters and try bringing up this Curry bullshyt.

I mean he's not lying:manny:

But then again you have to consider that as whole the Warriors are shooting about 40% from 3. That's insane. If you double Curry then you're only gonna give another good 3 point shooter daylight. Kobe didn't exactly have that kind of luxury during the 05-06 season.

Steph is playing out of mind right now but also credit the Warriors organization for building an incredible team around his strengths
