Scottie Pippen : Steph is NOT a dominant player

[dem bath salts]

Listen cut all the bullshyt.

If you watched the last 2 Finals Steph was unable to impose his will in either of them. Now you can be on some nerd shyt and throw stats at me with no context for daps but it's not gonna work.

He was unable to impose his will in either series because he has no physical component to his game that would make him dominant. He has that phenomenal jumper but he was neutralized.

Not to mention the fact that he couldn't fukk with the young gawd Kyrie who was comin for him

Yeah, I feel Steph under performed both finals compared to his regular season form. You're supposed to elevate in the playoffs.
Honestly, it's the reason I don't know if they beat Cleveland. They should but us this dude going to ball out or just be ok.

Curry's effeciency from the 3 line allows the other players to focus more on the defensive side of the ball. Curry is dominant but it's a different type of dominant.

 

[MJ Truth]

I swear yall dont think a nikka is impactful unless he's tall or has muscles.

As soon as Curry's ankles got consistently healthy, GS went from middle of the pack to legendary. Stop it.

Nah breh. Not that simple.

They also had Draymond come into the starting lineup. They got a new coach with the PERFECT system. Klay developee greatly as an individual player and Barnes got drafted then improved. Plus Curry himself simply got better. This is not just a case of him being the GOAT in disguise because he was hurt.

 

[Joe Sixpack]

The Warriors don't even bother having Steph guard the other teams high powered PG they put Klay on them

In the Finals last year they made GSW switch to get Steph on Kyrie so Kyrie could crack him.

If Steph is not making mad 3s how is he dominant?

That's because Reggie wasn't one of the greatest scorers ever. Just cause he had some of the NBA's greatest moments doesn't make him one of the greatest players ever.

Reggie was ahead of his time. Would have much more impressive numbers playing in today's offenses. Ray Allen even more so

That's why I love the playoffs. Dudes can be exposed.

It's not just a coincidence that all those other players ascensions coincide with Curry's own development though. Curry's a dominant individual player (i.e he can't be stopped because he shots better than everyone who ever lived) and his impact on how defenses scheme is also a testament to his dominance.

Seriously what would make Reggie Miller much different than a Kyle Korver in today's game? He's better off the dribble but not by all that much.

 

[Primetime21]

Steph curry is a dominant player though

The disrespect

breh I really really disagree with this idea that Bron makes any team a contender a playoff contender sure, but I'd argue that if you plug Steph into any squad they'd become contenders too.

Hell no they wouldn't lol

 

[BlueHeffner]

Are yall dumb


Curry is a dominant player. His impact on the offensive end is one of the best all-time.

I mean lebron always fires up the group texts to get an all star team formed like they did before every season of the mighty ducks so I dont think its valid

 

[letti cook]

never have i wanted so badly for both teams to dominate a finals...im tired of the agendas and naysing when it comes the greatness of Steph, Lebron and KD...I want all them nikkas to eat in this series...but alas there can only be one

 

[The God Poster]

Be considered dominant while not being athletic at all and getting sonned 2 years in a row on the biggest stage brehs



Steph Curry is NOT DOMINANT. He has a certain aspect of his game the can be dominant but he can be neutralized.

You can't be a dominant player in my opinion and not have a physical component to your game

The bolded gotta be one of the biggest myths

he's saying you have to build a perfect team around steph unlike true greats lebron jordan etc

Majority of his core wasn't drafted with the intention of building around him tho. KD got you all the way in your feelings.
