he suddenly dropped 28 in the 3rd quarter on 10/11 shooting, 5/5 from three, and scored 24 straight points for the Warriors, and got a standing ovation on the road lol

[plowking]

28 in the 3rd quarter? fark lol...

40 points on 18 shots says enough. Then you add in the fact he went 12/13 from the field and 6/6 from 3 pointers after starting 2/5. Wow.

See how far he shoots them from? You check him past halfcourt (virtually in his range) and then he does shit like this:

Handle too good. Shooting too good. Team too good. Curry/Green PnR is seriously the most difficult thing to check in the NBA when you got players like Thompson, Barnes, and Iggy bombing from 3 at the rate they do. And those guys and Green aren't mere system roleplayers either. We have seen all of those guys (and even players like Livingston and Barbosa) takeover games by themselves. Incredible roster building job.

There's a list of games with 40 or more points with 18 or less shots.

As you can see, many of them ended up getting to the foul line A LOT. A foul line trip is equal to one possession. So 2 FT's = one "true shot". So, most of these players took around 30 "shots". Curry only went to the line twice (for 4 FT's). So, Curry only took 20 true shots.

So...it appears that scoring 40 points on Curry's TS% that he hit tonight only happened once before....Jeff Hornacek in 1994, who had almost the exact same statline as Steph Curry tonight. 14-18 FG (8-8 for threes) with 4 foul shots for 40 points...LOL.

37 in one quarter > his performance tonight

[warriorfan]

37 in one quarter > his performance tonight

What was funny is that it had the same feeling as that quarter. The thing with STeph Curry's 3rd Quarter was none of it was forced. He just casually brought the ball up every time and the offense ran and he would score, every time. With Klay's 37 point game it was at Oakland and the crowd got into it giving him energy. It was also vs the Kings too and while the T-Wolves aren't great the Kings are just a shithouse team on another lower level. It looked like a harlem globetrotter game vs the kings at one point where everyone was just force feeding Klay like it was a joke. Curry's was within the flow of the game and it felt like he had similar points to Klay's. I think CUrry didn't have as many 3's as Klay and was driving to the hoop more. Both were legendary performances however.

[Angel Face]

No one expected Curry to be this good. He's good, but not this kind of good. Ridiculous 3 point shooter. He shoots it whenever he feels like. Pulling up beyond 3 point arc from fast breaks, still makes it. Most exciting player in the league right now.

There isn't really a comparison, you're right. Very different players.

Right, Jordan is more efficient - he scores more on a per-possession basis, which is the most important efficiency measure.

Jordan is a better player then curry we know this because he has six fmvps. Now shut up 3ball u retard

According to you.

Not at all - I just know the media is going to start saying this 3-point-reliant robot can match MJ offensively, which is ludicrous.

So I'm pre-empting their stupidity in the forums by proving Curry is in a completely lower dimension from MJ.. He doesn't compare.

Honestly, Lebron compares a lot more than Curry does.. At least he isn't a bad defender like Curry is, and doesn't need the 3-point shot to be great.

[3ball]

According to you (MJ is more efficient)



Not according to me - according to the stats:


Per 100 Possessions (playoffs):

JORDAN: 43.3 pts.. 118 ORtg
CURRY:.. 32.5 pts.. 115 ORtg


It's not even close... MJ produces literally 35% more points per possession, at better efficiency.

Those are the facts - but keep denying the stats staring you in the face... It makes you look dumb and possibly crazy - not that it matters, because none of you lames have any credibility anyway.

[ShawkFactory]

Career Per 100 Possessions (playoffs):

JORDAN: 43.3 pts.. 118 ORtg

It's not even close... MJ produces literally 50% more points per possession, at better efficiency.

Curry so far this season has a 128 Ortg and is scoring over 45 points per 100 possessions.

So you lose either way, seeing as this started about Jordan's stretches vs Curry's.

And since your metric says AI is more efficient that Larry Bird.

Hint hint: a metric that seems to work for Jordan but doesn't for anyone else is not a good metric.

[3ball]

huh?

Curry so far this season has a 128 Ortg and is scoring over 45 points per 100 possessions.



I'll take MJ's entire career of superior efficiency over Curry's 20 games:


Per 100 Possessions in Playoffs:

JORDAN: 43.3 pts.. 118 ORtg
CURRY:.. 32.5 pts.. 115 ORtg


MJ produces 35% more points per possession, at better efficiency.. It's not even close..

Just think, this argument destroys Curry (and all wings, since MJ's efficiency was better than all wings), yet it's like the 89th best argument for MJ being >>>>> :roll:





as your measure makes Allen Iverson more efficient than Larry Bird.


:wtf:

Per 100 Possessions in Playoffs:

LARRY BIRD: 28.0 pts.. 115 ORtg
A. IVERSON: 32.3 pts.. 105 ORtg


Obviously, Bird was far more efficient.

Well people are talking about this 20 game stretch, not his career vs Jordan.

Iverson is more efficient in the regular season. Any metric that shows Iverson more efficient than Bird in any way is stupid. YOU know points per shot is the best measure. Quit lyin brah

Iverson is more efficient in the regular season.
