I've seen enough...Curry is the greatest offensive player of all time at his peak...

[stalkerforlife]

Peak for peak, no one has ever been better. Scoring and play making combined, this shit is unreal.

I can't believe it.

Dude is 180 pounds and the greatest offensive player in NBA history.

HOW COULD HAVE YOU FORGET MICHAEL JORDAN?

Jordan won the slam dunk contest
rookie of the year
a better defensive player
could jum higher

Jordan averged 35 33 32 a game
curry only averages 30 a game
Jordan was the greatest scorer ever period!
lets see curry do a 360 dunk?:coleman:

Jordan is the GOAT two way player.

Curry's PEAK is the GOAT offensive player.

Curry could easily average 35+, but he's already sat out 16 4th quarters and only plays 34 minutes a game.

0 Defense = trash

:no: Let's see MJ do better than Kevin Hart in the 3 point contest

[moongaze]

When the person is at their best kyrie Irving is the best I've ever seen. Most insane finishes, finishes with either hand, prime tony Parker level penetrating, godly shooting.

[JohnFreeman]

Possibly.

Scary that shooting is probably only going to get better in the future

[LARRY BROWN]

:no: Let's see MJ do better than Kevin Hart in the 3 point contest


Michael Jordan set a nba playoff record for threes in the Portland series in the 92 finals!

curry was 2 for 15 and 1 for 16 costing his clubs two games:kobe:

[imnew09]

WHAT
A
TIME

:bowdown: :bowdown:

[outbreak]

:no: Let's see MJ do better than Kevin Hart in the 3 point contest
Did Jordan have a money ball rack when he participated?

[plowking]

He made less shots than Hart. :oldlol:

The fact you tried to justify it somehow also speaks volumes. :oldlol:

Jordan fam is gonna let this one slide stalker because we like you, but only this time.

Jordan's easily the GOAT.

I am just saying that this season is probably the GOAT offensive season by Curry.

[Upgrayedd]

Michael Jordan would be averaging like 40 PPG in todays league. Reggie Miller would probably be capable of doing what Curry is doing if prime Miller was playing in the NBA right now.

[Marchesk]

So I guess 50.4 a game and however many offensive boards doesn't count.

[Horatio33]

Better than Kobe ever was. Efficient and more of a team player.

:facepalm

[3ball]

Jordan could average 40 per game, especially on a bad team.. He averaged 37 ppg despite hand-checking and no spacing.

Surely he'd run roughshod WITHOUT hand-checking and with tons of wide open spacing.. Everyone knows that offense is easier WITH spacing than without... :confusedshrug:

[3ball]

:facepalm


Jordan would be a better version of 6'3" Westbrook or 6'4" Wade, who led the league in scoring with the same 3-point shot as Jordan and FAR worse midrange shooting.

MJ was essentially a rich man's Westbrook or Wade - taller, longer, bigger hands, better athlete, much smarter and much better shooter.. It would be amazing to see a rich man's Westbrook or Wade in today's game..

Like, imagine if Westbrook or Wade could double-pump from the FT line with ease... Yikes - they'd be the GOAT - they'd be MJ..

[Magic 32]

Better than Kobe ever was. Efficient and more of a team player.

So why is he in your head?

[f0und]

lets see some legendary record setting playoff performances first.

[masonanddixon]

Nah he aint that good really
Bran will put him on lockdown and spank hat ass in the finals :applause: :applause:

lol Lebron would never dare guard him. The only thing Lebron knows how to do in the Finals is to make the opposing team's small forward into the Finals MVP.

[Nick Young]

MDE Shaq is the most dominant offensive player of all time, because not only does he score at an amazingly high efficiency and percentage, he also gets the opposing teams starting front court in to foul trouble every single game, and dominates the offensive glass. On top of that he's one of the elite passing centers of all time.


Steph is great, but he is not as great as the MDE.

FAR worse? Wade shot .446% from 10-16 in 09...I highly doubt that's FAR worse than what Jordan was shooting from there.

And you call yourself a Kobe fan? Did you even WATCH 2006 Kobe? Don't bother answering. We know the answer is no. Just a troll. Probably not even a Kobe fan either.

Advice. Go back and rewatched some old game tapes.

[OldSchoolBBall]

Jordan '90-'93 was likely at 47-50% from that same zone, better from inside 10 feet (short shots), and significantly better from 16-23 feet than Wade. They're not even close as shooters when you watch them in terms of form/mechanics, confidence in their shot, or efficacy.

That's all well and good...but likely is not a fact or a statistic. They didn't keep the percentages of shots within these ranges back then, so unless you have some real concrete evidence...?

The poster PHILA compiled stats from like 150 games from 1990-1993 and Jordan was at 51% midrange. There is selection bias there (these were likely his better games), but not enough to make 51% become 44%. Pretty sure he was in the 47-49% range at a minimum.

So then he must not have been that great a finisher at the ring as claimed. The numbers don't add up.

[PP34Deuce]

I do believe the 3 point shot has completely changed the game.

I was watching early 2000's NBA games and when there was a drive and kick, it kicked out to a 3 but if it wasn't a "good" 3 point shooter, they funneled it back inside. It was completely an inside game.

Now, I watch teams purposely looking for the 3 point shot rather than taking the 18 footer or the post up Opp.

It makes a lot of sense why the 3 point shot is used.

It saves your body from pounding in the post. It's also a lazy play.

[OldSchoolBBall]

So then he must not have been that great a finisher at the ring as claimed. The numbers don't add up.

Sure they do. For instance, he shot 54% in 1991 on 22 FGA. Let's say he drove and had 6.5 FGA (29% of his total FGA/gm) at the rim per game and finished at 70% conservatively:

.29 x .70 = .203

Then say he shot 14.5 midrange shots (65% of his total FGA/gm) at 49% FG:

.65 x .49 = .322

Then he took 1 three per game, converting at 31%:

.04 x .31 = .04

.203 + .322 + .04 = ~53%

So I actually undershot it a bit. But since we don't know the exact percentage of his FGA that were in the paint, you can play with the numbers a bit. But to say the numbers don't work out is wrong.
