    And Price did have a very quick and highly effective crossover and was lower to the floor which made it harder to guard off the dribble. Give Price today's rules and the argument is more realistic.
    Except Curry makes Contested shots too. What looks? Curry can create his own shots and he can run around screens like Reggie miller.

    They actually called carry and they were strict. AI got called for carry his very first crossover.

    Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgMbhTj8HcU

    THAT WAS CALLED A CARRY.

    Don't tell me that isn't how EVERY point guard does a crossover today?

    IT WAS NOT ALLOWED.

    The crossover that Price, Hardaway and more did, was a significantly more difficult crossover because they could not do hesitation, they had to feint with body position and speed:

    Spot the difference, because I do.
    Curry crossover isn't like Iverson bro

    think of delly on steroids - for long stretches of the regular season.

    gary payton with handhcecking & the rules circa 90s era would've made life hell for curry.

    again. nobody is saying curry wouldn't be a superstar. people thinking he's mark price? dumb as hell too - but a lot closer than curry being more effective than mike & shaq in the 90s.

    the latter is what you're arguing basically (right now he's a more effective scorer than mike & shaq at THEIR best).

    Yes because the league has never seen someone like him before. Nobody has shot like him in history. He is anomaly not the norm. He been breaking the 3 point record the last 3 years.

    I said slightly which mean he would regress some but not much.

    they're saying he would be less effective, as the rules today are softer on the perimeter.

    mark price would be even BETTER today because of said rules. greater than curry? no - but again, nobody is claiming that.
    It's not just curry, it's ALL perimeter players would be less effective. Mark Price in today's league would be just as effective as Curry because the rules are softer on the perimeter.

    No they would be on the same general level of efficiency. Also Curry isn't has efficient has Mj in the Postseason or has scored has much. I have said this before but if you put this years Curry in the 90s he would get the same stats just slightly lower.
