:what:What is he supposed to say? Its called confidence.

And no, Kerr and GM Myers were the ones that wanted to keep Klay the most. Curry is supposed to come out saying he wants Klay gone? Damn that would do wonders in the locker room :deadmanny:


*Can penetrate, *Can finish, easily one of the best mid range games and one of the best floaters in the league.

Compared to Lebron? Lebron dropped 27 PPG on 55% in the playoffs last year. Despite playing more minutes and more games. Curry went for 23 on like 44% shooting.

People drastically underestimate how good Lebron is offensively because his game is so effortlessly dominant. It is very hard to consistently and effortlessly get into the lane against NBA caliber defenses, especially ones that pretty much plan for you ever time you step on the floor, and Lebron does it all the time. Entire teams change their defensive philosophy to stop Lebron, make sure to pack the paint as much as the possible, and Lebron almost always deals with considerable physical contact yet he's able to finish at a godly level.

There's a reason dudes like David West almost in tears after losing against the Heat. There is no real way to stop Lebron who wants to score. He pretty much shot at will, against the Spurs, and made it but he couldn't overcome 8 dudes scoring 15-20 points each.

No, wasn't comparing to Lebron at all. I'm just saying Curry is good in those areas and you clearly dont watch him play if you think he isn't. I'm one of the biggest Lebron fans, hes clearly better offensively than Curry. The comparison isn't even fair. Nobody in the game is as good as Lebron offensively when you factor in his scoring and passing.

Curry is a decent penetrator but he isn't great. He's not as good as Westbrook, Rose, Wall, Kyrie, Rondo, Dragic, or even Isaih Thomas.

He has nice touch around the rim but he doesn't deal with contact well and it's easily to deny him proper positioning if you have decent length.

His mid-range is good enough to be a threat and he's crafty because he's very good at using PNR and PNR fakes to get his quick release off.

His floater is great though.

The only player I know that is better offensively than Lebron is KD and sometimes Kobe when he isn't jacking up erratic shots.

I get it
Lebrons game is more reliant on his RARE combination of size strength speed than it is elite skill
Curry should of said more SKILLED

Who's gonna say lebron has an ELITE jumper or BRILLIANT footwork and DREAM like post MOVES¿?¿?¿?

Who's gonna act like if lebron wasn't a 6'9 2HUNNID++++++POUND OX and was built say more like kd homie would be mid level all star to pedestrian even//////

But hey I don't claim to be an expert so..........
