    Default Tiny had a better offensive season than Curry

    Unless you can show that Curry's offensive impact is greater. And maybe it is, but the team has to be taken in context. What would Curry's offensive impact be on a team similar to Archibald's? Better, same, a bit worse?

    Tell me when Tiny Archibald stretches the floor like Curry and has teams playing 3 on 4 from 30 feet out in attempt to stop him.

    That's really impressive, but what was Archibald doing to defenses with the kind of numbers he put up in his peak season? Obviously, they couldn't stop him either.

    That's the thing - teams currently AREN'T DOING THAT

    however, once they accept reality and make ACTUAL adjustments like the Bad Boys vs. Jordan, 1998 and 1997 Jazz vs.Shaq, like the 2004 Pistons vs. Kobe, or the 2007 Spurs vs. Lebron (22 ppg on 35%), or the 2008 Celtics (35%) 2011 Mavs..

    THEN and only then will we see how easily Curry's reliance on 3-pointers can be expoited.. Until then.. we wait..

    Those stats are terrible due to higher pace. It goes the same for Wilt's 50 ppg, it goes the same voor Oscar's triple-double season. A pace of 110 was considered below average back then. Know what the highest pace is as of today? 100.2.

    Not to mention they were empty stats as well, as the Kansas City Kings finished well below .500 (36-46). They also had a pace of 107.3, but were dead last in defensive rating (102.4). Archibald himself played 46 minutes per game.

    I don't understand these obssesive loves on Nate,Earl and Debaşşırr ..

    Why people always overrating these guys ?

    Curry is far better offensively . Nate wasn't even better than 01 Ivy . This year Curry fire with shotgun to Jordan,Magic level legends offensively right now . Even 05 Nash was clearly better than 73 Archibald .

    2015/16 Curry: 31/5/6 (52% FG, 47% 3P, 91% FT, 69% TS) in 34 minutes per game
    1972/73 Tiny: 34/11/3 (49% FG, 0% 3P, 85% FT, 56% TS) in 46 minutes per game

    Per 36:
    2015/16 Curry: 33/7/6
    1972/73 Tiny: 27/9/2

    Truly skilled players like Curry and Steve don't put up empty stats, either, Archibald FAILED to make the playoffs that year.

    36-46 Record

    Amazing! Let's compare that loser to a guy who is leading his team to a historical number of wins and potentially the best regular season of all time, where do you guys come up with this BS

    Their 100 poss numbers probably like that (when poss rating adjusted ) ;

    Nate - 37 pts , 4 reb , 12 ast , %60 TS with worse defence than lgAvg(around -2 or -3 plus minus )

    Curry - 41 pts , 8 reb , 9 ast , %65 TS with better defence than average ( around +0.5 or +1 plus minus )

    Jordan, Kareem, Wilt and Kobe all had a great a great offensive season in which their teams had losing records.

    Curry has a great team around him. I said in the OP to put Curry on a team like Tiny's. We put Curry on a lottery team, and are they looking to win 70+ games?
