Steph Curry says he's a better offensive player than LeBron

[DoubleClutch]

LeBron can score more while doing it more efficiently and turning the ball over less. How the hell Curry better offensively?

I'll put it like this. Lebron can only score well when his shot is on. Currys shot is always on. Curry is more offensively skilled. Lebron relies on power and force not skill. When his shot isn't falling he's pretty 1 dimensional offensively.

Also when lebrons looking to pass he's pretty much focused on being a playmaker first.

Curry is always looking to shoot/score or make the assist depending on what the defense gives him so he's always a threat on both ends cause you don't know what he'll do and his release is so quick

Plus his handles are a lot better now better than lebrons easily

Really lebron can't break his defender down off the dribble or create his own shot like curry. But he doesn't need to cause he's usually bigger faster and stronger than most.

Only thing lebron is better is in post, and finishing in transition

He will never be able to get to the rim and finish the way Lebron does

Curry is NOT great at getting to the cup and finishing.

He has NO post game.

He barley even shoots mid range shots.

The ONLY thing he is better than Bron at is shooting 3's.

Curry is a better passer too

No he's not.

Yet, one look at their shotcharts illustrates Curry is a better shooter from almost everywhere on the court but the rim. Nearly two-thirds of Curry's points came from beyond the 3-point line or mid-range while only about a quarter of LeBron's points came from outside the paint, so the former might win a game of HORSE between the two. One other item on Curry's side of the ledger: 70 percent of his points were unassisted in 2013-14 as opposed to 58 percent for James.

So your saying Curry is a better SHOOTER. which EVERYBODY knows.

that doesn't mean he's a better offensive player though.

He couldn't post anybody to save his life.

He can't get to the cup consistently to safe his life and he RARLY shoots the mid-range

I want to see a breakdown of his Mid-range shots NOT lumped in with his 3 point shooting.

Lol he's more skilled scorer bron just scores more off pure athleticism

 

[King Poetic]

what he supposed to say? lebron all day everyday. that mean he would be defeated even before the game

only thing lebron has on steph is strength and ability to muscle and travel his way to the hole

shooting and ball handling skills steph better

If his shot was always on he would be able to get pass the first round.

Barkley legit thought he was better than MJ for years too

you just gotta have your head in that zone when you're the leader of your squad

 

[smitty22]

Curry wasnt even confident when he answered that. Then Dan schooled him, bron the better scorer u the better shooter.

 

[Dayco23]

Curry had the most turnovers in the league. So hes right on that hes a better offensive player, but ya gotta include the opposite team

 

[DeVanteSwing]

curry is way more dangerous offensively, but bron got the complete package

there are times when curry is completely unguardable

 

[DoubleClutch]

I think last season curry shot 45-45-90

What were lebrons percentages?
