Big O vs. Curry

[Doctor K]

ok lets end this



Who is the 2nd greatest PG at their very peaks?

[feyki]

Oscar was better rebounder and playmaker at his peak . But This Year Curry playing insane scoring-shooting performances . I select Curry .

[Dr Hawk]

At their peaks it is not even close. Curry

[Harison]

Its not just Big O, Isiah and Stockton also have a word or two to say.

Curry obviously is the best 3PT shooter among PGs of All-time, but game doesnt end there, other greats contributed more to the table and were arguably more impactful.

At their peaks it is not even close. Curry

Thirty point tripple double. An MVP over Russell and Wilt and prime Baylor. But it's not even close, huh?

That would translate to something like 18/4/4 today. Not really impressive. Past him prime 34 year old Wade numbers.

basketball is shit back then

No, it would translate to 40-20-15 numbers in today's era.

[livinglegend]

Nobody saw big O in his prime.
Useless thread.

True

40-20-15 is no more ridiculous than 18-4-4.

[ralph_i_el]

40-20-15 is no more ridiculous than 18-4-4.

One of those is absolutely impossible. The other is clearly a possibility.

I don't think it's likely that Oscar would do worse than 20-5-5, but it's still something that actually could happen, unlike 40-20-15

Definitely, if he was playing against HS kids. :cheers:

[senelcoolidge]

I think the only advantage for Curry would be shooting it from far...that's about it. Robertson had superior court vision. Was bigger and stronger. Better in the post. Great mid range shooter. Curry might edge him out on FT % by a little probably.

18/4/4

What a Joke :lol

You don't think Oscar could get 22.0 attempts?

And you bumped his assists down that much? You do realize it was 1 step=no assist right?

Oscars stats would be more like 27-30PPG, 6-8 Rebounds, 11-12 assists

What he said recently about Steph Curry was ignorant IMO, but while I think he'd have a hell of a time guarding Curry, he'd also abuse Curry himself

The big O would be a homeless man's Draymond Green without the defense in today's league


A decent backup pg for a lottery team

[Sarcastic]

Useless thread.

So that means it obviously never happened.

[riseagainst]

taking into account pace and better quality of players of today compared to Big O's era, he'll probably average something like 22-5-5.

No, it would translate to 40-20-15 numbers in today's era.

No, it would translate to 18/4/4 today.
