    Yeah it's pretty outrageous because if the guy that posted that actually watched the games he would know how far beyond boxscores Curry's game went.

    There is no way through traditional basic stats to track how good Curry was at his peak.

    2016 curry blew a 3-1 lead in the finals with a 73-win team, when he couldn't get past over the mighty defense of delly bt.

    Nah we aren't going to start forgetting how good prime Curry was. Very outrageous take.

    I think we all kinda know that Luka is black listed from the MVP's partly due to his age also his geography. It's going to be weird next season with Jokic definately not getting a 4th MVP

    In the regular season, sure. He could have probably had a bunch more single game records if he and the other starters werent sitting out the whole 4th so often. And yes Curry was a big part of that and deserves credit for it.

    But there's also a reason the reputation exists that in big games, it was often Curry's teammates grinding back from a deficit or building a lead while Steph disappeared, and then once the Warriors were back in the driver's seat Curry would hit a shot or two and start prancing around. Sometimes getting so excited by frontrunning he'd throw a stupidly casual behind the back pass out of bounds in a big moment.

    So let's not forget BOTH sides of the Curry coin.

    If someone wants to take the game's current leading scorer and a pure playoff killer like Doncic over a sus, prancing, skipping, disappearing, pouting, returning, shimmying, 1/5 FMVP Curry, I dont think that's "very outrageous."

    It is a ridiculous take. No different than when Harder was "the best scorer ever" during his big ppg season. Charles said that on live TV.

    Ultimately that proved to be absolutely untrue and just in the moment type shit.

    Currys brand of basketball is far superior to Luka. That will be proven once again in the playoffs - where it matters.

    Steph allows organic team play. Actually, he doesn't allow it he inspires it. Enhances it.

    Luka ball, Harden ball, that shit ball gets exposed when it's winning time. And very hard to build a super team around because one ball.

    Fultz has always made countless posts about how “hero ball” is such a detrimental style of play

    Guess his eye test lacks some consistency

    Steve Nash's "brand of basketball" is far superior to MJ's.

    Is he the better player?

    there’s 48 mins of game

    last 45 seconds is literally a fraction of the game

    if you want to boil all play down to a minute fraction and extrapolate that….

    wow

    hope you aren’t a big fan of something called “sample size”


    you got caught with your pants down right now, you can either concede, keep being intellectually dishonest, or try to play this whole thing off like you were “just joking”

    keep it consistent though

    I'm not saying anyone SHOULD take Luka.

    I'm saying dont be revisionist about "prime Curry." He was not without flaws.

    He was an important, AND flawed piece of a stacked team.

    Luka is also an important, AND flawed piece of a far less talented team.

    Those are the facts.

    There is no need to get into our feels about it.
