Goes to show Curry is the most skilled player in the league. The only way to out play him is to use mma tactics

Curry vs real defense = homeless man's Reggie Miller, slihtly better version of Dell Curry.

So we're all just gonna make believe I haven't been saying this for 2 years now? :biggums:

Curry won't be a 30 ppg scorer if he plays in the 1980's. and 1990's.

[Sarcastic]

He's a product of the NBA's transformation towards becoming the WNBA.

Honestly Curry's Shot selection is what hurts him. If he'll mix it up he would be unstoppable.

This is a great insight, puts things into perspective.

Well duh. Obviously. That's by far the biggest factor that affects him in the playoffs. The added physicality of the playoffs is not something he responds to well. He needs space to operate both with a live dribble and to get his shot off. If you crowd him, you really affect his game. Contact/physicality is a fundamental part of bball and Curry needs to handle it better by bulking up or trying harder to get open off ball. Sometimes, he just gives up because it's too physical.

Both Pippen and those of you that agree are full of shit. Funny reading this though. :oldlol:

Keep patting yourselves on the back after one bad series for a player guys. Who is in fact getting surgery this off season.

Is he really?

I asked this in another thread and there were tons of replies saying that Curry mentioned he wouldn't get surgery.

A few crazy ass games, but he never quite looked the same after the MCL tear. Throughout the year, I've seen him ISO and create his shot off the dribble plenty, but this past series he was mostly relying on screens just to get clean looks. Dude looked like Reggie Miller.

SAS mentioned despite what was said at the presser, he heard some stuff saying he would. Mentioned it on first take.
For as much of an annoying personality he is, he does seem to get this kind of stuff right over and over again, and is usually on point with his info.

He most certainly didn't look himself, and a first time Olympian would not simply pull out of the Olympics if something wasn't wrong, and possibly needed time to recover from surgery or a particular injury. Says it all really.

[PJR]

Yeah, I'll contribute more to the freak MCL sprain still taking it's effect than any "physicality".

Steph Curry couldn't shake Kevin Love on a switch on a couple possessions during game 7. That wasn't the same player during the 82 game season :lol
