STEPH CURRY CHOKED LMAOOOO. HES A FRAUD

one star thread.
you can't say someone chocked when his entire roster is INJURED. not a little hurt. INJURED. Your center is coming back from two horrible injuries, your SF went down with a calf injury(so they said) and is now done for next year with an Achilles injury, klay is down with a torn ligament in the knee, looney has a broken bone/cartilage issues in one of his upper ribs.
No team is winning with that many hurt dudes. it aint happening. and the refs still had to help toronto to most of their close loses and close wins.
I aint mad at Tdot for stealing a shady ring. get yours cause you aint never going back there again. But lets be real about what happened. You know how hard someone has to pray for all those things to occur during the finals? How many breaks do you have to go your way to pull that off?
Why are you focused on Isaiah when this is about steph? Why don't you explain why you have steph so high? What has he done outside of put up pretty stats on the most talented teams in the league? When has he shown that he can be transcendent when faced against teams with comparable talent? Focusing on zeke is a deflection.
I'd love to see guys from his era haven the opportunity to shine in this era. Zeke would be a completely different player in this era.
Dumb logic.
Vanvleet was balling late, Lowry seasonsings was balling early(for a change). But how many players were guarding Van and Lowry? ONE
WHy? because the other guys had to stay on their man. Why? because the raptors were not injured like the warriors were.
How is it that the raptors could Double Team steph all game long, traps, and run a Box and 1? Because steph's teammates were dropping like flies with injuries.
Once you understand basketball. You understand the strategy. If you just look at box scores and assume steph choked. You dont understand the game at all, and you're a casual fan of the sport. admit that and dont make threads about the sport. just reply to people that know better. it will save you a lot of negs and one stars.
You dont put a box and 1 on chokers. Lowry has never seen a box and one in his life. Only the super scorers see that kind of defense. Ask Kobe what boston did a few years back.
Another bad post. read my post

and see thats what Im saying with you dumb nikkas.
anyone who isnt a idiot(alot of you nikkas in here) know Curry did not fold/choke in this series. struggle in a few spots(which you can only argue for in like G6 and maybe G2)? sure but not chokebut like I said continue on with this stupidity.

True, but Klay also is rarely if ever double teamed.
yall are exposing yourselves as either haters or not knowing much about basketball beyond the box score. and this is coming form a lakers fan that knows real MVPs and championship teams when he sees them.
yall need to stop the hate and pay attention to the game.
You dont double/trap/box and 1 a dude that is trash or aint top 50 of all time. you do that to the greats only IF and when they have no one else to pass it too. His guys went down and they abused it. thats it and thats all. If curry could've passed it to a Prime derek fisher, that would've been better than nothing. he didnt need stars. he just needed two more guys that would be ready to take and make shots. Iggy is half hurt too. dray aint a scorer.
Because that's literally the only other player that you could possibly put in that spot.
Point guard is a historically weak position in all-time rankings as is shooting guard. You don't have to grab every award to be a top player at the position unlike small forward or center which are stacked with all-time greats.
Oscar doesn't have the success. Hard era to make comparison to as well. Definitely not Stockton. After that its CP3, Nash, and Kidd in any random order. Did you want to suggest someone else?
You can deem his stats "pretty" but they're also effective and all-time elite. GS has had some of the top offenses of all-time. His impact on the league and style of play have been revolutionary. That's where he's been transcendent.
You're arguing that he has to be a top all-time talent to be 2nd all-time. I'm just saying that he has more qualifications than anyone else.
But he didnt choke. just because you say he didnt doesnt make it true.
I'll keep repeating it. You tell me what kind of bad logic makes someone a choker who is getting doubled, trapped, box and 1 all game long? BAD LOGIC.

Yes it does.
You typing a bunch of words but you aren't saying anything. Your argument is basically "since it's decided to run a box and 1 at times curry gets a pass". fukk outta here.
This "steph gets a pass because he was being doubled and tripled" talking point doesn't fly because steph isn't a 1on1 iso capable player. You cant give him a pass for playing poorly because teams have more than 1 guy helping to guard him when all of his teammates are literally working to get him open. Steph is constantly running through screen after screen to get him open for a 3. A big part of golden state's offense is based on taking advantage of the attention that steph draws. They kept the game close while he struggled even after Klay went down.
Bottom line, steph got several looks that he should've knocked down and he didn't knock them down. Plus he was getting smoked on defense.
I didn't quote you to debate your all time point guard rankings. I don't give a fukk what your rankings are because you're clearly tryna rank guys who you didn't actually see play.
I quoted you because you were making excuses for curry's subpar finals. All that bullshyt about him changing the league and all that is fanboy spin and it's an irrelevant deflection. Curry had a subpar finals. He didn't look like an all time great player. No excuses.
Stating that 2 starters went down and that the team didn’t succeed due to those injuries isn’t an excuse, its fact.
Stating that if the Warriors were built around Steph without those players in the first place, things would be different isn’t an excuse.
You obviously don’t agree. I really don’t care. My opinion of him as an all-time player still stands.
