A few jumpshots that Curry cant make (of many)

[3ball]

MJ is the only player in history that routinely took hangtime jumpshots as a regular part of his game - he has hundreds of these, in addition to all the highly-contested fadeaways and pullups.

A huge proportion of MJ's league-leading scoring consisted of jumpers - he probably made more jumpshots each season than anyone else in the NBA, at elite efficiency too.. This means he's simply one of the greatest jumpshooters of all time - he's by far the best jumshooter out of anyone that could double pump from the ft line.

Maybe Stephs Jumper doesn't rely on freak athleticism and vertical?

MJ, the ultimate ballhog chucker

[J Shuttlesworth]

Curry's handle/release is too quick to bother taking difficult shots like that. He doesn't waste his time with low percentage looks like that because he doesn't need to.

Plus, it doesn't matter how hard the shot is. Curry will put 3 points on the board quicker than Jordan puts up 2

Lets be honest MJ is a poor mans Derozan.

Learn to appreciate greatness wherever it comes from and stop being so insecure about your idol...Oh and stop living in the past.

[LakersForlife]

are you retarded? you know curry doesnt have athleticism right? what a dumb post

[Round Mound]

You Cant Compare Jordans Athleticism and Strength to Curry`s For Contested Shots. Curry is a Long Distance Assasin but Jordan was a Great 2-Point Scorer.

[Rocketswin2013]

Curry is good at those little floaters around the areas Jordan is taking off from. He does them with both hands and can use the glass.

He gets them off quickly. Way quicker releases than these jumpers.

Reinforces my point that MJ would be a poor mans derozan in todays league

Perfect comparison! Derozan would have dominated MJ's chumpass short shorts gerry curl era.
