Steph really overshadowing two great seasons by Westbrook...

[MoneyTron]

...and it really is depressing because prime Russ has turned into some sort of bizzaro LeBron/Kidd combo guard and is doing some insanely impressive stuff.

Dude is at 16/8/11 tonight and its only the first half.

Last year, Durant goes down so he puts the team on his back, busts his ass, puts up 28/7/9 and wins the scoring title. Post AS break he goes off for 31/9/10. He almost averaged a triple double for half his played games.

And this year, we're talking 24/7/10 and now its even easier now that Durant is back. Kidd was pretty much the only small guard I know that could pass and board that these levels but he's nowhere near the scorer Russ is.

But what really gets me, and really Curry as well...he's putting up these numbers in 35-37 minutes worth of game time. On a per minute basis, this dude is literally a human version of the Tazmainian Devil. Guys like AI, Kobe, Bron, Jordan were all in game for 38-43 minutes consistently in their primes.

Anyway, I thought I'd just share my thoughts on Sab. I hope he gets his ring but the Warriors looking to be an all-time lineup right now.

Ehh...

 

[Ziggiy]

Russ is amazing but Curry is TRANSCENDENT...

That's the only way I can describe it

What Russ did so far tonight is more impressive but the casual fan appreciates high point totals the most. To be fair, Curry has been amazing too so far. Might be the two best individual first halves of any players of the season which just so happened to occur at the exact same time.

lol. Being a 6'3" guard with elite athleticism that stuffs the stat sheet in ways PGs absolutely should NOT is a lot more transcendent than being a really good shooter. Steph Curry is an incredible scorer, the best shooter we've ever seen, but no other parts of his game are particularly transcendent. While Westbrook can literally do everything. Basketball fans too biased towards offense and having a pretty game.

In a worst case scenario you say they're both transcendent in their own rights, but I give the nod to WB because he's doing more.

Damn, we really are in the steph curry era.

Just imagine what both could do on the same team. You wouldn't even need a defense.

RW is going to lock Curry down when they meet..

And if you think Curry is going to be able to keep up with RW

 

[Panther]

Russ is better all around imo

 

[letti cook]

shyt, tonight is just another example. Russ at 20-13-13 in the third..but Steph no.1 trending topic for dropping 36 in a half on the wiz..sheesh

 

[MoneyTron]

He's at 20/13/13 now. Granted this a game with no defense but a 20/15/15 has only been done 4 times since 1983.

2x Magic
1x Kidd
1x Bird

Yeah, I can honestly say if I had to choose between Steph and WB to start a team, I'm taking WB.

He currently has 20, 15r and 13a (and the 4th quarter hasn't begun)

Steph has pretty much ruined a lot of the other top nba players, as far as visibility goes.
