this is the time Dubeta/Lechoke/Kobrick fans should unite and put an end to the cancer that is Steph Curry

Watching Curry and Klay drain crazy three pointers while fully defending them must be one of the worst feelings in basketball. No ball movement or nothing, they just dribble a couple times and chuck them


Completely sucks the energy out of the opposing team

It's hilarious how WWE this is.

People now hate Golden State that lebron haters are actually slowly wanting to root for him. The style of play has bothered a lot of people but they do have an ultimate advantage and they exploit it.

The CAVS when they play at full strength are beautiful to watch. They have inside outside game that is more "throwback"

Golden State is like a modern day NBA2K game. How many of us have been down 10-15 points in the video game only to shoot 15 3's and time the trigger to make them.

I do think OKC brought out the blue print to limit them, the issue is you have to have lengthy Ariza that can roam and play man defense.

If I were Cleveland, I would double Klay Thompson and have one defender dedicated to Curry at all times. Keep your big man in the paint with your PF quick enough to switch but get back to the basket (Lebron, Tristan)

They exploit the new rules and do it incredibly. I think some people argue that their brand of basketball at times can be just as cringe worthy as a FT shoot fest. When you see Curry and Klay move inside the 3 line only to see them move 2-3 steps back, it can be argued it's not that fun to watch.

I don't get the hate for the Warriors brand of basketball. It wins games, it is a new, refreshing brand of ball we haven't seen, a PG is leading a team to championships since the first time in forever, a team that hasn't won many championships in the past, and led by an all round good guy in Curry.

So they shoot a bunch of threes? Who cares? Do what you're good at. Since when is it cheap, or considered flukey to do that? People always loved seeing a guy catch fire from beyond the arc. Now... you just get to witness it a hell of a lot more since the guy is so damn good.

Todays new rules are meant to allow penetration by little guys into the paint, and give them favorable calls if they flop.. its why 5'9 isaih thomas can be an all star in this league. There's absolutely nothing in the rules they are taking advantage of.. theyre just making impossible shots over and over and over. and making haters furious because theres nothing anybody can do to stop it but pray they miss.

a full season consists of regular season AND Playoffs

Steph Curry has ZERO Playoff runs as the Finals MVP, Kobe has at least 3 championship runs that are better than Curry's based on stats alone, one might argue that Kobe's Playoff run in 2000 is better than Curry's based on what he did in Portland series and what he did coming back from injury in Game 4 @ Indiana.

It depends on what you value more. Either you value the stats these guys put up while facing lottery teams/bad defenses half of the season or you value their production in the Playoffs as well.

If you take both into account you can't make a case for Steph over either player. Imagine Lebron or Kobe not win a Finals MVP over their bench player in a Finals win :oldlol: he didn't even get ONE vote

Yeah, it seems that guards who took alot of threes(Reggie, Kenny etc.) are ok with it, while big guys or guys who played fundamentally sound basketball can't stand them(Big O, Chuck etc.)

My issue isn't even the threes. SA takes a ton of threes, but they have generally played inside/out over the years and a lot of them are high percentage shots created out of ball-movement. GS doesn't do that, the majority of Klay and Steph's threes are terrible shots and I hate how that gets rewarded/celebrate among fans.

It is bad basketball pure and simple.

its the same as larry bird letting cedric maxwell win FMVP .. when you have great selfless players that make everyone around them better, thats a good thing, not a bad thing. Curry was easily better player than Iggy in that series, Iggy just captured the storyline and won votes of media / journalists.


I'm a big kobe fan, but im not blind. When Kobe gets to the Finals, he turns an extra gear on his chucking, probably in anxiety of wanting to win FMVP since he was dogged for being a sidekick by guys saying the stuff you are saying now about curry. This warped his performances in the Finals pretty badly.. I mean he beasted against tougher west teams but almost always shot like shit when Finals came around.

Curry last year in the Finals averaged 4.7 turnovers and lost an OT game at home shooting 5/23 + 6 Turnovers :biggums: and he was guarded by a role player who didn't get burn for most of the year until Irving got injured

Kobe went 6/24 but guess what he rebounded the ball and got his teammates shots when it mattered and didn't try to take over Game 7, him getting 20+ shots is how the offense worked. It was the same thing with MJ during his 2nd 3-peat when he shot a low % from the field in most of his Finals games against Seattle and Utah.

Of course you won't admit it but statistics show that Kobe's 2001, 2009 and 2010 championship runs are better than Curry's run last year or his run this year up to the Finals.

And of course you're not even going to dive into the fact that Curry last year in the Playoffs faced 4 straight teams that dealt with injuries to their starting PGs. Or the fact that Curry averaged 4.7 turnovers and shot his team out of a game at home against a team missing 2 of it's 3 all-stars with a performance that made Kobe's 6/24 look efficient. That wouldn't make your boy Curry look that good, now would it?

its the same as larry bird letting cedric maxwell win FMVP .. when you have great selfless players that make everyone around them better, thats a good thing, not a bad thing. Curry was easily better player than Iggy in that series, Iggy just captured the storyline and won votes of media / journalists.


I'm a big kobe fan, but im not blind. When Kobe gets to the Finals, he turns an extra gear on his chucking, probably in anxiety of wanting to win FMVP since he was dogged for being a sidekick by guys saying the stuff you are saying now about curry. This warped his performances in the Finals pretty badly.. I mean he beasted against tougher west teams but almost always shot like shit when Finals came around.


Curry wont let your hate turn him into a selfish player like what happened to kobe though. He's too smart for that.





























he admitted it... wtf

Lebron and Kobe are better than Curry. At least their games are well rounded.
Well roundedness only matters if people can shut down one of your styles.This is why they always say "a superstar can do other things on the court when he's struggling with one thing (ie shooting or scoring), etc". But if his shot is always falling or his offense can't be stopped or if whatever he's doing is always working then it doesn't matter.

You could argue Curry is just as well rounded as Lebron because Lebron gets stifled by these zone defenses that dare him to shoot just as often as Curry struggles with length.

At this point it's not about Kobe vs. Lebron, there are bigger things at stake right now.

All-time rankings are subjective anyways...this is the future of the league we're talking about.

Kobe/Lebron fam need to put their differences aside and unite. We can do it :cheers:

.. interesting.

Curry is easily better than Iggy but Iggy was the more dangerous player in that finals series.

Iggy scored timely buckets and made timely defensive plays. when the games have been tight in the playoffs, Steph has deferred and usually starts shooting again when they have the lead. He was nowhere to be found in OKC until Klay got them the lead. Then you saw him go for the kill. Hyenas.

Iggy was really good, but he needed curry's threat to divert attention away from himself. Cavs were basically daring iggy and draymond green to shoot .. he hit some of those shots like he had to for the team to have a chance, and averaged like what, 18 ppg?

Thats pretty standard production from a second option on a title winning team. especially when you consider the guy who shouldve been the second option in klay thompson dissapeared last year in the Finals

what? Curry hit two 3's in game 6 to tie the game in the last minutes, so he definitely was somewhere to be found before klay got them the lead. He needed help before that, every star needs some from of help.. especially with warriors frontcourt being decimated.

And in game 7, Curry hit back to back 3's in a row to erase the thunder deficit in the 3rd Q and take the lead, which ended up being the last time they would lead in the game, and was effectively a knockout blow.


you expect too much ...

Of course its my opinion but I just thought Curry came off to be a little more soft than people thought. When the rims got tighter, you didn't see him chuck those 3's until Klay got them the lead. Curry this playoffs will have 30 7 and 9 and you wonder how he even got 7-9 rebounds. It's the most quiet stat line you see. But the stats aren't the whole story.

I saw a player that got frustrated and took himself out of plays at times only to come back when the opposing team was down and go for the juggular. He's like a hyena in that regard.

If you care about the game and don't want to see it become a 3-point contest you're going to root for LeBron and the Cavs to win the NBA Finals

this is the time Dubeta/Lechoke/Kobrick fans should unite and put an end to the cancer that is Steph Curry

Bran is our last hope :facepalm
