Keeping my overhead low, and my understand high
I don't agree necessarily with this thread but you definitely reaching with some of these awful ass bullets :mjlol:

Especially the bolded :mjlol:


Not at all.

A person that shoots better will make more shots no matter what. So of course it's gonna seem like he's more clutch. He'll always make more jumpers than Bron Bron.

And Bron's game is aesthetically pleasing in the same way Tim Duncan or Karl Malone's games are. These are big dudes, so they're not gonna do all the fancy tricks, but someone that knows more about the game can appreciate his vision, use of his size, IQ, movements for a big player, etc.

The suburbs
  • He has a super team
  • He's a better shooter so it seems like he's more clutch
  • LBJ was the most popular player in his day and is still very popular (see Movie roles)
  • He's currently the biggest star in the league, He's done it for 2 years LBJ did it for longer
  • Steph's game seems prettier to the non-trained eye. The more you know about bball more you like watching LBJ.

  • His TEAM might beat LBJ again, but let's not pretend that LBJ didn't outplay him in last year's Finals
Lol foh, if anything its the people who barely know basketball who stan lebron.

Curry is amazing.

But as great as he's been. Nothing he's done has topped LeBron putting up 35/9/7 in the playoffs in 09 (Mike Brown blew that series)

And especially when he went hybrid Malone/Pippen/Magic for the Heat in 2012 averaging 30/10/6 with incredible defense. :wow::wow::wow::wow:


Lets enjoy Curry's greatness. I'm not forgetting what Bron has done for years.

TYRONE GA!
I don't agree at all about Curry erasing Bron's legacy but OP has a point about Steph Curry being the most popular player in all of sports right now :ohhh:



Only Cam Newton and Tom Brady comes close, people dislike both of those dudes for various reasons, so Curry it is :ehh:


And Under Armour has Cam and Tom AND Harper :wow:

Nah, I've forgotten more about the game than a lot of folks know and offensively Curry's game is more pleasing to the eye. Even a guy like Prince George has a more aesthetically pleasing offensive game, smoother handle and more fluid movements. LeBron is more exciting when he goes into freight train mode in the open court, not many guys can compete with that.

It's more pleasing to the eye than LeBron's, but you have to admit, Curry takes a bunch of bad shots......he just hits them :yeshrug:
