Is Steph Curry better than Kobe ever was?

[tmacattack33]

This is why I don't chat with dudes here. I wouldn't entertain a basketball conversation with guys in their early 20s and younger which is what most of you little girls here are.



Curry has been playing amazing ball but the guy haven't even been given the benefit to show longevity and idiots are eating up the hype and already overrating the dude. This is why there's such a drop off if said player fails to last.


And no. Current Curry is not better than Kobe ever was. Some of you were what? Younger than 10 when Kobe was doing his thing? Get the fu*k outta here.



That's all I have to say. I can't take you kids serious.

Forget about longevity.

We're talking peak play.

Why isn't current/this season Curry better than Kobe ever was?

He is a better scorer, shooter from everywhere on the floor and passer.
Currently he is the most efficient scorer ever at his position, and possibly at any position. He puts up nearly a point a minute while sitting out 4th quarters where teams usually get the ball to their main scorer even more...

He does what Kobe is best at, scoring, better than Kobe.
Ridiculous shot maker? Kobe was great at that. Curry is even better.
Efficient? Never really that great for Kobe? Curry? Out of this world.

Did you guys watch Kobe played!?

Every time a player has a good stretch/season. Without fail.

Poor KD, he's no longer the GOAT scorer like people proclaimed him to be a couple of seasons ago.

Nigguhs got extremely short attention spans on this site.

Durant fizzled out come playoffs. Curry been doing this since last season and i doubt Curry slows down like Durant did because he playing way less mins and still producing the same. He getting rest.

This season's Curry is having one of the GOAT offensive seasons. 30 ppg on 51% shooting (45% from 3). That is ****ing nuts. Inhuman mofo

Isn't even so much the 3 point percentage more so than the percentage combined with the amount of attempts from that range. 11 threes a game and you are shooting better than Kobe's career average from there?

"Oh the horror" sounds like he is withholding judgement on Curry until he can get more accolades and more all-nba teams and MVPs under his belt.

Which really just means he is too scared to go out on a limb and make his own judgement. He's gonna have to wait until Steph has 3 MVPS and 3 rings and all the experts have him on their GOAT lists.

Preach.

Is what you kids say when you get your shit pushed in. I get it junior. I get it.

Preach.

Old man yells at sky

Durant fizzled out come playoffs.

And Curry was shut down for long stretches by Matthew Dellavadova and lost Finals MVP to a bench player on his own squad.

But people tend to get carried away and lose any perspective.

Even the "professionals"

DUDE CURRY SHOOTS A BETTER PERCENTAGE FROM 30FT THAN KOBE DID HIS ENTIRE CAREER.. MYGOODNESS

[SuperPippen]

The fact that this has become a debate is, in and of itself, remarkable. It's a loaded question and I'm not sure if there's a definitive answer at this point.



Although I do honestly think that if Curry were saddled with atrocious teammates, he would be able to match, and probably exceed Kobe's gaudy '06 numbers. Is there anyone who disagrees?

Here is some highlight

https://youtube.com/results?q=kobe%2...0portland&sm=1

Great. Now go back to his game logs for 2006 and see how for every 50 point game, he had just as many 8-28 games for 19 total points.

Curry's worst games in terms of efficiency right now are as good as Kobe's best from 2006. And that's not an exaggeration.
