It feels good knowing that the GOAT in my fav sport isn't a complete D-bag anymore

[tmacattack33]

Curry > MJ

What a time to be alive. That prick MJ will likely be surpassed (at least in terms of peak season) by current Steph Curry this year.

With Curry's great four games this past week or so, he can basically "just" score 25-30 ppg and 5 assists per game for the rest of March and the beginning of April and he'll have a reg season to rival MJ's best.

And i see no reason why he won't have a great playoffs after that, culminating in a ring.

Fukk yeah.

[retaxis]

Nah Michael averaged 44points a game in a single season. Don't think Curry will ever get close to 35 let alone 44.

MJ's highest was 37. Not sure where 44 came from.

Curry is at 32 ppg this year, with 12 fourth quarters sat out.

And Curry is shooting at around .70 TS%. That is truly unbelievable.

Curry is delivering historic regular season performances in basketball. It will settle down when Curry settles down. If he doesn't, it's deserved.

Curry was the first player in the history of the game to score 50 points on less than 28 shots two days ago. It was the most efficient 50 point game in the history of basketball.

Two nights later (tonight), he was 4 points away from doing it again...


...Not much more needs to be said :rockon: ...and I didn't even mention the 8 assists two nights ago or the 12 overtime points tonight plus the amazing game-winner :confusedshrug:

Cool, until the next GOAT that comes another 5 years is also a complete douchebag.


Let the cycle continue.

Curry at age 28 is more mature than MJ at age 50...making his whole hall of fame speech about attacking his high school coach and anyone who ever did anything bad to him.

28 true shots.

And I don't even have to look at that Barros game or the Delk game, and i can already tell you that they had a bunch of trips to the line on top of their 27 FG attempts, because i already looked it all up yesterday.

As you can see from my thread entitled "51 points on 28 true shots has never been done before" from two days ago here:

So now Bron stans are jumping on the Curry wagon to get at Jordan because they know Bron won't catch him :oldlol:

[tmacattack33]

To Hey Yo, nevermind the above, you are actually correct about that Barros 50 point game. It was exactly 50 points and so it didn't show up on my 51 point, under 27 FGA attempt search on bballreference.

Barros was on fire that night, 21-26 from the field and 6-8 for threes, and only had one trip to the line. So it was 27 true shots as well. Amazing.

[dazzer87]

Curry is on another level right now but lets wait a bit till we put him over MJ....:roll:

Curry even got the LeShit stains rooting for him to take LeBald to the woodshed in june:rockon:

I'll be rooting for Cleveland in the Finals. And rooting for Lebron until he retires.


...and I can also root for Curry to pass MJ as well.

There's no rules to this. Except of course the fact that both the Warriors and Cavs cannot win a ring at the same time.

So i will be upset if Lebron and Cleveland lose in the Finals. But I will be a little happier as i realize that Curry just got a ring and had a regular season (and perhaps playoff run) that passes MJ's peak year.

Yes...I'm pretty sure that is what they are going to say when they put the straight jacket on you. Just for clarification...just because I've always found Kobe Bryant overrated and I especially can't stand you/the moronic stans of him...does not make me an Lebron stan, fan or anything in between. I have NEVER liked Lebron and have made that pretty clear here many, many...MANY TIMES. Maybe it's because I'm actually an grown ass adult and you all are just teenagers so you find it hard to compute these facts...I dunno...not my problem...but it's just pathetic when you clowns think I say something to raise up a player I don't even care about...I'm not one of these ****ing mongoloids like JT or Dubeta...I spit on them as much as I spit on you.

Don't let the 30 foot shots fool you, Curry is also a great passer. And MJ was just an above average passer.

Please...the amount of time each has the ball is probably equal.

Point guard and shooting guard and small forward...these are just labels for novices to follow along.

I'm pretty sure MJ wasn't capping himself at 5.3 assists per game, just because he was a shooting guard. He couldn't get any more than that because his vision was not as good Curry's (or Lebron's or Bird's...two "small forwards" who averaged 7-8 assists per game )

He was probably around top 10 for SG's in terms of pure passing vision in any given year he was playing.

Stop trying to make him out to be a God. He was elite at many things, passing vision was not one of them.

And its not something you can even learn really.

Random wings like Igoudala have better passing vision. His own wing teammate, Pippen, had much better vision. It was on another tier, or even two.

Edit: Oh yeah, and Kukoc was on those teams too. So there's another wing with better vision and on his own freakin' team.

? Where are you getting your numbers?

He was at 5.5-6 his whole prime, besides the one year with 8.

LOL.

Furthermore, an assist is not what we are going for. Sabonis and Bird did not average so many assists. They are definitely top 5 in terms of vision ever though. On the flip side, someone like Iverson had "meh" vision and got himself up to 7 assists per game by drawing doubles and dishing.

Furtherfurthermore, vision wouldn't deteriorate with age. MJ's lack of assists in his mid 30's is easily explained by the fact that he drew less double teams.

Put Ginobli's passing vision in 1989 MJ's body and we'll have ourselves the closest thing to a 30 ppg and 10 assist player since Oscar.

The only question that remains is if he can continue this for the next 20 games, and if his playoffs can be at a similar level.

.68 TS% is unheard of. And it is literally unbelievable, as if you asked people two years ago if they believed somebody could average 31 ppg on .68 TS% for the entire year, they would have laughed and said NO.

Jordan had a peak prime, though. That's what seperates him from any other player. For any other guy you can point to a single season, but Jordan maintained peak play over a 5 year span.
