You guys are on pace to break the Bulls regular season record and are barely a better national TV pull than this bummy ass Cavs team. :mjlol:

And you dont even sniff LeBron era heat in terms of merchandising and TV ratings.

Everyone knows its LeBrons league, always has been always will be.
Come on. They're a west coast team and their games come on at 10:30pm our time. So, that's bias.

Horrible excuse because pre-LeBron Heat the Lakers were the prime needle mover for the NBA and put up great numbers all the while having all the same West Coast disadvantages.

Despite what the Coli WANTS you to so desperately believe, Curry cant draw viewers like LeBron or Kobe could, not even close. 3s are cool but at the end of the day casual fans want to see aggressive superstars who will put their nuts in your face when they dunk.

What does any of that have to do with popularity? You're trying to do the smart guy sarcastic thing but it doesn't work because you're terribly fukking stupid and the only thing worse than your deductive reasoning is your homerism.

Curry has a WAYS to go before he's sniffing LeBrons popularity. LeBron set back to back to back record TV ratings for the Finals we hadnt seen since the 90s. He was responsible for 4 straight most watched regular seasons. Curry is at "the helm" now and ratings have taken a nosedive. There are actual stats to back this, but you'll continue to cling onto your All Star votes which he barely won by despite playing in a huge TV market.
I keep agreeing with you and that's not good enough? You're right about Steph's popularity not exceeding Lebron's, it's not like Steph got more allstar votes the last 2 years and has made a shoe line relevant by himself. Under Armour shoe sales are a clear indication that Steph isn't more popular than LeBron. If he was he'd be able to have millions of people gravitating to a sports shoe company besides Nike and Adidas which seems impossible right?

If LeBron and Steph played at the same time against different teams I'm sure more people would tune in to watch LeBron and his exciting Cavs team.

I think the ultimate showdown between Curry and Bron is going to happen this finals :ehh:
Both teams at 100% hopefully. Not that I think it would have made much of a difference last year .

Curry came back better than ever. The GS team is better as a whole.

Id like to see them go at it now.

They went at it twice already and a coach lost his job after the last meeting.

Is Steph Curry really that well know outside of North America? I still think its LeBron (really and truthfully its probably still Kobe worldwide until he retires) as he has more international draw.

Your Warriors CANT generate impressive ratings WITHOUT their opponent being LeBron, you fukking dolt. LeBrons heat shat out great ratings regardless of who they were playing, and are still the only team to draw favorable ratings in a playoff matchup against San Antonio.

You keep cherry picking favorable news but what really MAKES THE NBA MONEY is people tuning into their games...the ratings surge they got from LeBronmania 2010 to 2015 is why they got that massive TV deal thats going to make ur princess curry a very rich man. And guess what? People are tuning in FAR FAR less with Curry being marketed as the guy.

So you're still angry that I agree with you? You said LeBron is more popular than Steph right now. I agree. Every head to head to head indication suggests you're right. I'm sure LeBron sells more jerseys than Steph and I'm sure more people like watching the Cavs instead of the Warriors.
