Curry is better than Kobe

[CAstill]

Nash is also one of the greatest shooters ever.

You have no leg to stand on here

That's the point, you base it off percentages and that's just garbage. Nash isn't a better 3 point shooter than Kobe :roll:

[KungFuJoe]

Is someone trying to argue Kobe being a better 3 pt shooter than Nash?

My oh my the ******gers Kobe has.

what the...you can't say nut h-uggers on this site?

[CAstill]

Curry is better than Kobe ever was

So what if he never scored 81 before? He could score 80+ if he wanted to

No, he can't. He'll do it if he can.

[ShawkFactory]

That's the point, you base it off percentages and that's just garbage. Nash isn't a better 3 point shooter than Kobe :roll:
And your argument for Kobe being a better shooter is that he has won rings and Nash hasn't.

Again, you have no leg to stand on.

You're saying Kobe is a better 3pt shooter than steph fvcking curry. Stop it dude. Just be a blatant troll and stop remotely trying to portray objectivity.

No, I'm not. I'm saying when Kobe was in his prime with healthy fingers and knees he didn't miss from 3. Pulled up way beyond the arch and it didn't matter if he was covered or not. He didn't have a team that created premium spacing and still achieved ultimate results. Mike Bibby confirmed on team dime interviews that Kobe easily made over a hundred threes in a row like clockwork during summer workouts (you have to shoot a thousand threes a day to make team dime) Currys best is 88 in a row, so shut your mouth and sit down.

You're a ****ing troll...and an unimaginative one at that.

Are you RETARDED?

Nash is one of the greatest shooters of all time especially from 3.

Kobe is one of the most inefficient.

Kobe has never shot 40% from 3 in a season.
Nash has done it countless times.

[CAstill]

So you rats have nothing to say like the worthless scumbags you are. Go watch hockey because basketball ain't your speed :roll:

Once again idiotic arguments based on percentages. There can be a role player who shoots one 3 a game and makes it everytime, best shooter ever!!! Gtfoh you loser ass clowns.

Why would anyone have something to say. If someone tried to argue that the sky wasn't blue (and didn't have something philosophical and perhaps reasonable to back it up), no one would waste their time arguing with them.

No one responding isn't you winning. It's you losing so spectacularly that no one gives a fvck to give and actual argument. Because one isn't needed.

[Optimus Prime]

All of that means nothing when you shoot 45%

Meanwhile Curry's career 3pt % is pretty much equal to Kobe's FG %... Kobe better shot creator tho :lol if shot creating = chucking shots up without accounting whether or not the shot goes in.... I guess Kobe has the edge.

You're mad.

Curry is currently playing at an all time great level. He is dominating using a style that by all means shouldn't work and is honestly changing the way the game is played.

He's putting up scoring numbers similar to all of the top great perimeter players with the scoring efficiency of a top tier big while also putting up unseen efficiency/volume from behind the arc, he's the greatest 3pt shooter ever and there is no debate.

He takes those type of shots that guys like Kobe and Jordan would take and sometime make but would have you asking why when the shot left hands.

Those are the defense killing shots that absolutly demoralize any defender, when a defender has excellent defense on the guy and yet the offensive player still rises up to hit the jumper. Doing this on a consistent basis will take a team out of their game, I've seen it happen so many time with great players. It is the most important aspect of being a tough shot maker.

But this guy Curry just takes it to another level, if any player in history consistently took the type of shots he takes on a consistent basis people would think they were trying to throw the game. It feels like he is cheating.

Curry for the month is shooting 71% TS, so basically every shot he takes is equivalent to a Lebron layup (one of the best finishes ever) and Curry takes 10+ threes per game. Unreal

[raprap]

Kobe in 06 shot

56.7% from 0-10 feet
45.5% from 10-15 feet
42.1% from 15-3pnt line
34.7% from 3 point line

Curry this year is shooting

61.7% from 0-10 feet
48.2% from 10-15 feet
47.1% from 15-3pnt line
46.8% from 3 point line
End thread

You know the kobe stans are going to avoid this post like the plague :lol:

No one isn't saying Curry isn't deadly but other players have had this ability, it's just that the game plan wasn't to shoot 3s all day. Now it is and you're seeing it getting maxed out.

please name me all of the other players this season making 5 threes per game this season at 46%

I'll wait..


Nobody else could shoot like that if they tried, shooting is a skill.. it isn't some unknown strategy that people just began using, it's a specific skill that one player has mastered at a level that has never been seen before..

He's the only 30ppg scorer in the NBA so apparently he's the only one "maxing out" the "new game plan" and that is because it is a specific skill that only he has mastered at the level we are currently seeing

No one has the Warriors as a team besides Curry :confusedshrug:
Replace Curry with Durant and tell him the same and you don't think he'd have similar results?

Tell him what exactly? "Hey dude learn how to make 5 threes per game on 47%, score 30 every night, dish out 6 assist, draw double and triple teams at half court, move the ball, play team ball, be the GOAT off ball player and we'll be fine"

get real

Its just funny to me that you CAN apply logic. It just doesn't happen when Kobe is involved.

Opening up another realm of weird issues.

Tell him to shoot 10 threes a game and watch how many he hits with premium spacing. We did it with metta and told him he has the green light as long as you hit four and he was doing it. You don't think Durant would have better results?

It's really like you don't watch the Warriors play.

OTHERS have premium spacing. Curry creates that. He himself deals with doubles, triples etc

No I'm just not an idiot and realize health and spacing have extremely brought down kobe's percentages.

Who do you think creates that premium spacing? Draymond? :oldlol:

[ShawkFactory]

Yep, he's a better 3pt shooter than steph curry.

You still have no leg to stand on. It's like watching a one legged dude trying to outrun Usain Bolt. It's embarrassing mixed with a little bit of sad.

[CAstill]

Yeah at the beginning of the game and pay for it. Other greats had their bumbling teammates not finish the play which lead to constant pressure for the rest of the game because they can't finish an assist. Curry doesn't have to worry about that all game. Plus showe me triple teams coverage, double yes, triple not so much.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Better than Kobe Bryant?
Not sure if the #s have been posted yet since this was on pg 1 but Curry does have a slightly higher career FG% from 0-3 feet. Kobe's best year is 69.3% and Curry's is 68.7% which is a pretty minimal difference. Curry has to use pure skill to finish inside because of his height. That's why he puts so many crazy looking touches high off the glass.

What's the difference between a 45% shooter and 49% then, a few minimal shots?

[FKAri]

Are you suggesting a 0.6% difference is equivalent to 4%?

Like Ive said, when Steph 3ball aint falling and by extension his Teammates aren't firing on cylinders , there's not much else to his game.

He also seems to under perform vs mediocre guards. Huertas? The fucc.

[SuperPippen]

Yes, a one game sample is enough to counter the previous 60 games. As well as the fact that Steph is a better passer than Kobe even on his roughest shooting day.

The f*cked up part is that you're actually being sincere. I rarely see stupidity this confidently displayed outside of ISH.

In the very same game thread you said you'd take Harden and Demar Derozen over Klay Thompson based on this game.

You're the only kneee jerk reaction poster I see in this thread, you hop on any and every player's dick who's had a hot streak and you're constantly ready claim the next big thing is better than Bryant, which is why this thread sticks in your craw.

I bumped this thread because a lot of what I was saying is being proven true, like right now. Yea, it's only one game, but it shows just how exposed Curry can be if you take away the three.

Not much else to his game if those 3's aren't falling for he and his Teammates, they open everything else up.

Agreed. When Curry's shot isn't falling he doesn't have teammates who will bail him out like Kobe.

[Myth]

At passing and shooting.

But Kobe is the better rebounder, shot creator and defender.

Agree or disagree?
I agree with all except the bold.
