It's funny, being prisoner of the moment. I mean, Jordan dropped 40 and 50 points on a regular bases. More often than Curry. Right? Yet, if Curry score 40 points, since it just happened, then he's the greatest offensive player of all time. If things were in reverse. If Curry played 25 years ago with the Current rules, and Jordan scored a typical 40 points last night with the old rules, then people would not be saying that about Curry.

And MJ was putting up Godly numbers on bad, good and great teams. Gotta go with MJ. Curry does things so effortlessly though that it just shines harder.

Jordan family recognizes Curry's greatness. He can sit in the same table as MJ. LeBron is not invited.

Indeed. You need to be at least 1/10th of what MJ was to sit at the table and Curry is allowed to sit at the big boy table, but there is no room at the table for 2/6 losers. Originally Posted by ClipperRevival

Nope. 2/6 losers get no love from the MJ family. Originally Posted by Straight_Ballin

Wow some of these replies are bad Curry is amazing offensively still take about 10-15 players over him on offense people are jumping gun as usual after brillant 4th quarter and OT by Curry.

Re: After waiting all these years for someone to be 1/10th the player MJ was....
It's really crazy. The guy is amazing but is on a stacked team and can't be doubled. Not sure how that makes him a better offensive player than guys that scored just as much with defenses all over them... Originally Posted by oh the horror

Yeah and scoring in more ways like driving and finishing at rim dunking over players its impressive for how small Curry is and only being average athlete at best while being this dominate. Originally Posted by konex

It's not hard to be dominant when you can't play defense on the 3 point shooters unlike past eras where you can play defense. Originally Posted by Cold soul

Phil Jackson did say Jordan could average 40 points a game in this era I wouldn't doubt it. Jordan 91-93 is best most compete player I have ever seen play. Curry isn't even half the player prime Jordan was. Originally Posted by Straight_Ballin
