That was Steph's Greatest Game

[AlternativeAcc.]

Sucks the Celtics couldn't make a shot late to really put the pressure on him

He was scoreless and turning it over per usual before Klay hit that huge shot to put them up 3 with a few minutes left. Knew the game was over right then.

Props to little steph though... best game he's ever had in the playoffs. He needs about 50 more of those to catch lebron.

Right now he's still a dame caliber player. Dame has had better games.. several actually... so I'm not gonna overreact

His cast is absurdly stacked and the Celtics can't win close games. So it's whatever.

In whose world is John Stockton on the same tier as Duncan and ahead of Curry? Only in your head.

Stockton is #1 in points accountable (points plus assists), only man to 50,000

Curry is 5 All-NBA Defense ranking spots behind John Stockton
Curry is 3 All-NBA rankings behind John Stockton
Curry is 10,000 assists behind John Stockton
Curry is 2,000 steals behind John Stockton

[Spurs m8]

You forget 2020?
You forget 2021

Shook m8

You're saying he took his soul around 2016

Curry went 8-1 against him right after 2016

You are fvcking retarded.

No wonder you don't leave the basement

Stockton is #1 in points accountable (points plus assists), only man to 50,000

Curry is 5 All-NBA Defense ranking spots behind John Stockton
Curry is 3 All-NBA rankings behind John Stockton
Curry is 10,000 assists behind John Stockton
Curry is 2,000 steals behind John Stockton

Stockton gets underrated these days. One of the greatest second options of all time.

John Stockton was not even the best player on his team - much less in the league. You must have forgotten Steph's unanimous MVP - much less the 2nd. And you totally didn't address ranking Stockton on the same tier as Duncan. Curry has 6 years ranked higher than Stockton's highest MVP voting (7th) - Duncan has 9 years.

MVP's are fine as a single metric but it's a media based award that changes with different social and cultural times. When Stockton was leading the NBA in assists they were giving MVP's to Magic so he could catch up with Bird. When Durant and Lebron were clearly the best players in the game the award was lowered for Harden and Westbrook. Chris Paul has never gotten an MVP even though he's turned around four different teams in his career.

He's literally not even one of the top twenty best second options? WTF do you mean noob?

Chris paul never deserved the award except maybe 2008 and kobe had his case too that year

He was really the third option on most of those teams....but he got 20K points being a third/fourth option. Steph is a 20K scorer and people want him ahead of Lebron and in the top ten.

They dont really want him ahead of lebron theyre just speculating

He should have three of them for three different teams (New Orleans, Oklahoma City, Phoenix) he took three teams that weren't playoff teams and put them into the playoffs.
