Will Stephen Curry not winning the FMVP hurt his legacy?

[keep-itreal]

Will it?

[AnaheimLakers24]

Why?

Who?

[leBron Bieber]

yes

Iggy was very deserving of it. Clearly he was the best warrior on both ends throughout that series, but that was by design. Delly and Iman did really well against Curry and Klay.


I don't think it hurts his legacy because he isn't in the same category as guys who can will their team to victories ala Kobe or Jordan.

Just another loser with a championship and tons of money. I swear these NBA All-Star millionaires are pathetic. I'll donate a few coins to his change jar if I see him in the street.

I wouldn't. I would avoid eye contact and keep walking.

What legacy?

Not winning the FMVP is really an argument people selectively use when comparing certain players. Usually those players are in the top 10 all time conversation.

I thought he was the Finals MVP though. He came up clutch late in games almost every time. Without his late game scoring they stand no chance. Who really fell through was Klay Thompson what a loser. Laying an egg Harden style.

Steph Curry with the game is played will have many more chances to win.

[Wally450]

Nah, he'll continue to break 3 pt records across the NBA and other NBA records probably. Possibly win another title or 2, but if he doesn't win a Finals MVP in either of those 2, then yea probably diminishes it a little.

[Legends66NBA7]

Nah.

He was the best player on the best team, along with a MVP trophy and setting the 3 point record in the regular season and playoffs. He's already probably considered the GOAT 3 point shooter. Barring any injuries, he should add more to his resume for another decade or so.

You think not winning a Finals MVP is going to effect that , especially considering he can certainly have an opportunity to do so in the future ? It would be worse for his legacy if he never won a chip at all.

Sadly (because I really like him as a player) Iguodala is likely to be remembered as the answer to a trivia question.

Stephen Curry is pretty much a household name already, and he's only getting started… I'd imagine that when people bring up the 2015 championship Warriors in the future, the first player that comes to mind will be Steph.

[Kblaze8855]

On places like this. Not in the real world. nobody gives a shit.

I think most people understand that without the attention needed to cover Curry, the Warrior's offense couldn't have done the things it did.

He didn't produce as much as you'd expect from a FMVP, and Iggy did a great job of covering Bron. However, with the constant traps and double teams that Curry drew, it freed up the rest of the team for easy buckets. Iggy shot a lot of wide open J's, and had easy lanes to the rim.
