At this point, if you can't comprehend what Steph is doing, you'll never get it. It's no surprise the same clueless ass muh'fukkas are parroting the same nonsense about his game.

:hubie:

Everyone comprehends what he's doing. Maybe you just don't comprehend the way you've been overrating him.

You're his biggest fan though so maybe its unfair to put you in that position.


He's a PG that led the league in steals, he's good enough on defense

:ohhh: my bad. I look forward to his all defense selection this year.

You've already proven time and time again you don't know what you're talking about.

Steph lacks the athletic ability to be a great defender. It’ll only get worse once he gets older/something happens to his weak ankles. It is what it is :yeshrug:
this is ultimately what will happen, as he gets older he'll be such a defensive liability that it will basically become the narrative and threaten to overshadow his offense. Then his legacy will be average between his offensively dominate years and his defensively weak years to be a more accurate picture of the player as a whole.

It happens with everyone. In your prime your the greatest of all time like MJ but if you don't sustain that till the end (or at least until your middle 30s) the polish wears off you get an averaged out picture of your career. It happened to Iverson, (who was considered every bit as unstoppable offensively as curry. it'll likely happen to Curry and Kyrie too. The D is the key lasting legacy. In Three years John Wall will probably be considered the better of the three point guards.

i will slap and neg everybody who put curry over KOBE , LEBRON AND D.WADE

Curry surpassed Wade a long time ago. He was the first unanimous MVP, in a season where he had one of the greatest shooting efficiency of all time. Do people understand how impossible it was to drop 402 3’s in a season? Prime Wade was one of the greatest SG’s of all time, and he should have won the 2009 MVP. The problem was Wade body took too much abuse, and he fell off quicker than anyone expected. Argue PW vs Current Steph, but overall body of work? Stop it.

Kobe was the best guard since Jordan, and Curry is the best since Wade. Harden was a MVP candidate for the last 3 years, and could win his first in his 4th. That’s 4 straight years of being a top MVP candidate. He is a championship and finals MVP away from making an actual debate.

My one knock with Steph and it’s something that I used to take very seriously, the assists. With his vision and handles, he should be averaging at least 9 easy. Steph never averaged 7 or higher, and he’s considered the best PG? That’s pathetic. Same gripe with Kyrie.

Absolutely, which has been said before. I think Shaq MVP season should have been unanimous as well. Doesn’t change anything you bolded though. You’re telling me with Curry’s body of work, he’s still inferior to Wade?

So let’s play a game of hypotheticals. James Harden wins the NBA MVP, Finals MVP, and Championship. This is 4 straight years of being a top MVP candidate (2nd place in 3). Does he surpasses Wade, or is he still inferior?

I. Curry averaged 8.5 assists in '13/'14 and 7.7 the season after
II. I don't know why you take assists "very seriously" when they're a silly way to measure one's ability to set up teammates - Curry could easily average 10+ a game if he dominated the ball like other PGs do, but the Warriors offense would be worse off because of it. The success of their offense is designed around getting the best shot possible, so while Curry is most likely to generate that open look for his teammate, he doesn't get credit for it in the box score. I mean shyt, the fact the Warriors average more assists per game than nearly every team in NBA history, should tell you all you need to know.

This was never impossible just culturally taboo. Larry Bird only took 1.5 three point attempts per game most years during his career and yet is widely considered one of the best shooters of all time. If he was allowed to take 8 to 15 three's every game like todays players he wouldve passed that mark repeatedly.

This is what I get for not fact checking. Seen it myself, and was going to edit it but was too late. Like I said my knock was more personal. I think Steph and Kyrie have what it takes to win an assists title, but you’re right about the Warriors. This team is one of the best assisted team we’ve seen in years.

Bird was one of the best shooters, same with Ray Allen, but Steph still 1,2, and 3 in the list. That’s ridiculous. Bird made what, 90? You’re right about it being taboo, and today’s game is different but I don’t think Bird making 200, let alone 300/400.
