Mychal Thompson on Matthew Dellavedova: "He's trying his little heart out, but come on. It's a joke to think he can stop Steph Curry."

The arrogance of the Warrior collective is starting to show. http://www.thecoli.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/5I5s8.png

Lots of Warrior-related arrogance that in retrospect could be :lol in 2-4 games.

He's being a clown. To not give someone any credit for what's on 3 games now isn't fair, and his further statements (that Stef is prime Kobe, he's Durant, he's that type of unstoppable player) when Stef hasn't been at this level but a minute is also just way too much.

I think Delly's defense caught Steph off guard. I feel like he'll be more prepared to deal with Delly going into this game, based on what he said about seeing something in the Cavs defense he could attack.

he chucked up ridiculous shots when he had nothing to lose.

Stef is a ridiculously good shooter though. He just needs to throw them up.

How about attack the fuccing basket? Fighting over screens to chuck threes against a pesky Delly is not gonna cut it, once he attacks the basket more and gets to the line, the jump shots, assists will all start to flow better.

:coleman: Cavs are completely locked in on Curry and Thompson they are daring anyone else to beat them.

Misleading title. He didn't say his defense is a joke, he said its a joke to think its actually "stopping" curry. No one can stop curry but himself.

Unskilled, scores 7 ppg, his claim to fame is diving after loose balls

He has been very defensive when being asked about Dellys D on steph. He came on ESPN radio and was interviewed by max and Marcellus and he got defensive and a bit heated when asked about curry getting bothered by Dellys D. He doesn't give him much credit for Currys shooting woes. Just uses the excuse that everyone has off days. Continually pointing out Jordan and Kobe had bad shooting days. I'm sorry but this is just excuses. Thompson is putting absolutely zero blame on curry and his struggles. Nothing about how he is shooting low % shots and that maybe he should try to manufacture easier looks to get going. It's crazy how many people have not held Curry accountable for failing to deliver on the biggest stage. If he had a bad night on reg season I wouldn't have a problem writing it off as a off night, but this is the finals. The MVP should not struggle this hard against a undermanned team.

Black people defensive over a white guy shutting down Curry. But Curry is so light, shouldn't take it so personally.

oh the horror

A hilarious joke then because so far he's been defending him pretty damn well I'd say

One of the main reasons why the Showtime Lakers got Mychal, back in the day, was to defend Kevin McHale.

Actually I see a lot of similarities right now between Finals Steph and Finals Kobe and KD :confusedshrug:
