What is Curry's Ceiling?

[ninephive]

I know it's early in his career and he only has 1 title and hasn't won a FMVP yet, but what is his ceiling in terms of all-time ranking? Because he's not a great defender, does that keep him out of the top-5 in terms of ceiling even if he were to win 3 or 4 more titles and get a few FMVPs?

With 2-3 MVP's, and 2-3 titles, I see him being in the top 30 off the bat.

He has potential to be a top 10 all time guy due to him changing how the game is played, and also scoring dominance.

He is already overachieving please this is his Ceiling individually he will never come close to playing better than he is now..

Oh and it's not early in his career he is 27 years old already..4years younger than Lebron who feels like he has been around forever already.

Why are you so homosexually in love with bran? Are you really so brainwashed that you can't appreciate a once in a lifetime talent like curry ? You are so fcking jealous he's the best player in the world now :lol

The **** does his post have anything to do with slurping LeBron? Stop being insecure, little man.

[Riks]

Top 10 achievements is possible, but he needs a great 5 year stretch. I think he has already reached top 10 peak.

[Quickening]

He could break into the top ten but he would need to sustain this type of dominance for at least another 2 seasons... potentially leaving him with 4 mvps, 3fmvps and the best offensive peak ever.

[miggyme1]

he has no ceiling.....and that's whats so scary....I thought last season was his ceiling but after this season.....nah. Don't be surprised if next year he is shooting 50 foot jumpers with ease...opening tip....bogut tips to curry......SPLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AintNoSunshine]

He's currently over the ceiling at the roof top. I will bet my life that he will not have another season like the one he is having this year.

[AintNoSunshine]

LOL at you stupid overreacting. His current level of play is not sustainable, just like his ankle. Enjoy while it last, because it's unreal right now. His last second shot against OKC was his absolute pinnacle. All downhill from here as far as individual play. I called it here.

Exactly this..people are acting like he is 22-23 doing this he is still relatively young but definitely at his peak of his prime enjoy it now.

[HoopologyPhD]

Eddy Curry?

[fragokota]

He'll be 28 in a couple of weeks. I'm pretty sure that's his ceiling (game wise) and it's a damn impressive one. Now about his career accolades, rings and legacy it remains to be seen. He could definitely enter top10 if he can stay at this level for 4-5 years and keep getting rings.

[soots]

Number 1 ceiling. If he maintains his 2016 form for 3+ years.

If he keeps this up, they need to review the 3 point shot, which will put him into the MJ/Shaq need to overhaul the game category.

he was 27 last year....most players peak around this time but there are a lot who peaked far late in age......steve nash being one of them so don't count curry out

[greatest-ever]

Top 15 if he plays at an elite level for a long time. He don't even have to replicate this season, he just needs more great seasons.

He will take Magic's spot in the top 5. Curry is a better defender than Magic.

[BigNBAfan]

I dont know man, if he can be like jamal crawford and have the speed, handles and shot he's good for another 4-5 years of prime.

Wut? Why do people act like curry never averaged 28ppg in the playoffs? And the only reason why he wasnt a 30 ppg scorer last season was minutes

[$LakerGold]

Curry's ceiling? Curry.

[Nick Young]

Curry has 2 years he spent rehabbing and not playing an 82 game season which means his knees have two years less mileage than players the same age as him. This, combined with his low minutes per game, and all time great fitness and medical team and he can be sustaining this peak level of play for a long time yet. He is only going to get smarter and better at decision making the more experienced he gets.

As he continues to practice his 35+ foot jumpers I would not be surprised if he shoots them more often next season, which makes him even more impossible to guard.

[AintNoSunshine]

What? How do you think I'm pissed?

We almost beat them without 2 all stars behind Lebron's legendary finals performance, if not for FMVP Iguodala we would have won.

#3 ALL TIME

Damn what position you play, I didn't see you out there

[Dragonyeuw]

With 2-3 MVP's, and 2-3 titles, I see him being in the top 30 off the bat.



With that kind of resume, top 30 would be too low. If this guy sustains anywhere near this level of play for another 4-5 years and wind up with the accolades above, top 15 is the minimum you're going to be looking at.

[plowking]

No one in the history of basketball has been this good at 22 or 23. Better yet, no one in basketball has been this good in terms of efficiency.

How is he overachieving? Based on what? He just got that much better.

Yes, he'll be 28 by years end, and he'll have 2 MVPs. That means he will be one of 13 players in NBA history with 2 or more MVPs. That is elite by any measure, and on the same note, he is only 28. You're talking about the age 27 as if it is the end of a basketball career. Lebron only won a title at 27... Guess his career was over by then too. Your logic only sits right with you when pointed at other players, yet you can't apply it to the guy you worship.

With the way things stand, he will undoubtably have 2 MVPs by seasons end, and more than likely 2 titles as the best player. On top of that, he is in a great position to win a few more in the coming years based on his team and his own level of play. All this at 28.

For the first time, I actually agree with Plowking here.

People that don't agree with plowking here refuse to watch Curry play or just hate his baby-face so much they have to hate on him publicly.

[clipps]

I think this is Curry's peak and I think his peak is going to last until his early 30s and will still be a top 5-10 player in the league in his mid to late 30's. If he stays away from those ankle issues, his game should translate well when he's 40.

Who ever finds a way to take the 3 point shot away from him, will be a very rich man. He sticks to that 3 point line. I've seen him pumpfake dribble in then dribble back out for the 3.

Golden State gets mismatches consistently and it's going to take a defense time to figure out how to prevent switches.

[KungFuJoe]

Interesting stat.

Curry has launched over 600 three pointers this season.

Never been blocked once.

[stalkerforlife]

He's having the greatest offensive season in NBA history.

So um, I guess his ceiling is being the best offensive player in NBA history.
