Will Steph Curry end up better than Jordan, Kobe, Magic, Lebron?

[Walter Sobchak]

Yes he can, he drives in the lane all the time.

And he is a 6'3 guard, why would he be so stupid to play in the paint anyway.

He is so clutch from 3 why even risk being thrown down or bumped hard in the key.

Look at Kobe, He will not drive in the lane anymore, he knows one bump and his season ends on the spot. Morons like Derrick Rose drive in and tear ligaments.

Bird was clutch as fuck, but Curry is clearly superior from mid range and 3 pt range.

I just realized you're that Quickerblade thief...

Fuck off.

Let's move on to Curry's ability to play in the paint. Curry’s ability to get in the lane is why he’s got 8.7 points in the paint per game and is drawing 5.1 personal fouls per game. Most amazing about his early-season run is Curry hasn’t sacrificed efficiency in service of getting his points. Curry has a mind-blowing 64.1 percent effective field goal percentage. That number is higher than any other starting point guard in the NBA and eighth among players who play at least 20 minutes per game. He’s also shooting over five-percent better than last season on floaters, driving shots, runners and lay ups.

The only team and person that can potentially stop Curry and the Warriors is the Kawaii Leonard and the Spurs.  Kawaii Leanard will eventually be an NBA elite or elite player. Also if you look at the history of Spurs vs. Golden State, the Spurs have an absurd record of beating them down regularly. It's going to be a great match up and I see no reason why these two wont be in the Western Conference Finals. New and improved Spurs with Aldridge and new and improved Warriors.

Curry is averaging 32 points a game and is averaging 3 quarters played a game.  That is over 10 points a quarter.

That is beyond nuts. They're still blowing people out most nights.

curry couldn't stop jordan.  period.  MJ was bigger and stronger and would have just taken him to the hole every time. 

[240 is Back]

he had solid mechanics, he's been shooting well for 10-15 years longer than any other player in the league.

There's video clips of him on an NBA court shooting jumpers when he's 5 years old.  His dad was a solid 3 point shooter.  IIRC, Del Curry didn't leave the floor when he shot?

Steph Curry has been shooting correctly, with an NBA stroke, since 1st grade.  It would me odd if he DIDNT have a perfect stroke by now.


Now, let's see him do this for a decade before blowing him.  He won 1 title and 1 MVP?   Do that for 3 more years before we talk greatest ever.  Idiot stephen A Smith is paid to overreact to everything.  grownups don't say he's better than jordan.  Curry was not amazing in 2012.  Think about that. 

[HTexan]

I've watched alot of basketball. I've never seen a person so accurate it doesn't seem real. He'll be better than Jordan at the end of his career if not injured.  I'd be cool with that. Jordan is a piece of shit. I'm still a Spur fan but Curry is the best player in the league. Only the Spurs stand in his way. If he can overcome them, the sky's the limit. I keep thinking "naw, he's just on a streak". But no, this is how he plays. He's just that good.  Unguardable, unstoppable. Even Lebron couldn't stop him last year. 6'3 190ish. Who would have thought.

Nope, dude is really good but never will be one of the greats. I hear he gets mad pussy tho. And I guess racking up the most groupies is winning.

Jordan is a freak athlete. Hard to imagine how great he was or could have been despite all of the off court shit in his life.  Fact is he could have been even better but lived an unhealthy lifestyle physically and mentally but yet was still a beast on the court.

Yup, dude still smokes cigars. MJ is supposedly a dick and shitty friend tho.

Also a horrible gambler. Apparently his 2 year baseball stint was due to gambling and his dad's death was also related.

Yeah, he should be shooting like this easy. Everyone else could be shooting the exact same off the dribble/off balance threes if they only had practiced more.......

An the press was/still hugging dude's nuts. They hidden that shit. Can you imagine if there was social media back then?

Spurs are no threat to the Warriors.

Leonard: overrated

Aldridge: history of losing and choking (former Blazer)

Rest of the team: Old. Father Time catches up eventually.

  Sorry wiggs

Back in the day, Jabbar and Dr J. played a high-profile one-on-one game. Jabbar administered a brutal owning. The game wasn't even close.

I think you are thinking of Big Smooth Sam Perkins.

If Jordan was t suspended for 2 years the Bulls would have easily won 8 straight championships.

There's no real evidence to say he was suspended, but I do get your point.

  Sorry wiggs 

You know I have a great track record with the Spurs.  You're wrong about them.  The are the biggest threat to the Warriors. I believe we will beat them in a series. Coach Pop will out coach them.

This.

Regardless of what Nurse Wiggs says.

No one said he could. No one can stop Jordan (although I think a prime Lebron would have gave him problems). My point is Jordan is not stopping Curry. Curry would break Jordan's ankles.  Jordan's been crossed up by Iverson, Kevin Johnson and one or two others and it was while he was in his prime. Curry would break Jordan's ankles regulary and shoot whatever shot he wanted at will. Jordan could do nothing, just like Lebron couldn't do anything.

You really are that far gone.

Lebron took on GS last year in the finals practically by himself. With Love and Irving in the lineup instead of Smith and Shumpert, the Cavs would have beat the Warriors soundly.

And Curry beating Jordan off the dribble.....you're smoking yourself stupid.

I don't think that would be the case.

Golden State was going to win that series no matter what.

Curry is the best offensive player in the game today.

[Wiggs]

It's not even close.  He's the best player period. The point is to win games by scoring points. He wins the most games, he scores the most points. He's the best.  Lebron is a better all around athlete. Steph Curry is the best basketball player on this planet right now.
