    Default How lost would Curry be against 88-91 Pistons?

    When we look at Jordan we see a man that averaged 30/7/6 on 50% against the Pistons in the 1988-1991 playoffs. He went up against Rodman and Dumars and the Jordan Rules.

    How badly would Curry get shut down in those playoff games against the pistons? What would his numbers look like?

    Please no "what the fvck you talking about man... ANYONE would be lost against them not named Jordan" type comments.

    This is about how lost Curry would be.

    Not Kobe, not Lebron, not Da Real Lambo... but Curry.

    It is so easy to shut down a guy who can shoot from 30 feet off the dribble. He would be lucky to average 10 ppg.

    So Curry would be shooting 30 feet off the dribble against all-nba defense like Dumars and Rodman and against a "Curry Rules" type defense?

    One hit in the lane in 88 that Jordan constantly absorbed and Curry would probably be injured for the entire playoffs.

    If we're talking purely defense...Riles Knicks teams were much better than the Pistons.

    Curry would be lost against "curry rules"
    One hit, he's out the entire series.

    A guy with elite handles who is arguably the best shooter in history and has a quick release isn't going to be shut down by anyone. He might have a bad game here and there but nobody is shutting him down over a 7 game series.

    He didn't do much in the Finals, did he? Against what defenders?

    He shot an efg of 54 percent, the stat you use on people who shoot lots of threes... MJ averaged 51 percent efg for his career.

    Currys a better shooter in a tougher era, he would rapein that chitty defence 80/90s

    Tougher era!?!? LOL!!! No hand checking, flagrant fouls and a 3 seconds in the paint rule to open up the lane even more for God's sake!

    This is an era where James Harden, Russell Westbrook and Jimmy frigging Butler are stars and not to long ago Dwight "the most limited offensive center ever" was the best big man in the entire league!!!

    The 1980's was a big man's physical league! A short soft jump shooting little chump like Curry wasn't winning anything in that era, just ask Michael Adams and Dale Ellis
