    He'll be 28 in a couple of weeks. I'm pretty sure that's his ceiling (game wise) and it's a damn impressive one. Now about his career accolades, rings and legacy it remains to be seen. He could definitely enter top10 if he can stay at this level for 4-5 years and keep getting rings.

    Number 1 ceiling. If he maintains his 2016 form for 3+ years.

    If he keeps this up, they need to review the 3 point shot, which will put him into the MJ/Shaq need to overhaul the game category.

    Top 15 if he plays at an elite level for a long time. He don't even have to replicate this season, he just needs more great seasons.

    He will take Magic's spot in the top 5. Curry is a better defender than Magic.

    Wut? Why do people act like curry never averaged 28ppg in the playoffs? And the only reason why he wasnt a 30 ppg scorer last season was minutes

    Curry has 2 years he spent rehabbing and not playing an 82 game season which means his knees have two years less mileage than players the same age as him. This, combined with his low minutes per game, and all time great fitness and medical team and he can be sustaining this peak level of play for a long time yet. He is only going to get smarter and better at decision making the more experienced he gets.

    As he continues to practice his 35+ foot jumpers I would not be surprised if he shoots them more often next season, which makes him even more impossible to guard.

    What? How do you think I'm pissed?

    We almost beat them without 2 all stars behind Lebron's legendary finals performance, if not for FMVP Iguodala we would have won.

    With that kind of resume, top 30 would be too low. If this guy sustains anywhere near this level of play for another 4-5 years and wind up with the accolades above, top 15 is the minimum you're going to be looking at.

    No one in the history of basketball has been this good at 22 or 23. Better yet, no one in basketball has been this good in terms of efficiency.

    He is already overachieving please this is his Ceiling individually he will never come close to playing better than he is now..

    Oh and it's not early in his career he is 27 years old already..4years younger than Lebron who feels like he has been around forever already.
    How is he overachieving? Based on what? He just got that much better.

    Yes, he'll be 28 by years end, and he'll have 2 MVPs. That means he will be one of 13 players in NBA history with 2 or more MVPs. That is elite by any measure, and on the same note, he is only 28. You're talking about the age 27 as if it is the end of a basketball career. Lebron only won a title at 27... Guess his career was over by then too. Your logic only sits right with you when pointed at other players, yet you can't apply it to the guy you worship.

    With the way things stand, he will undoubtably have 2 MVPs by seasons end, and more than likely 2 titles as the best player. On top of that, he is in a great position to win a few more in the coming years based on his team and his own level of play. All this at 28.

    Reasonable post.
