View Full Version : Steph Curry is the best player in the NBA. About 3 years now.

Here's the thing... Michael Jordan has confused multiple generations of players into thinking that iso scoring = optimal basketball. They didn't see and don't see how good of a team player Jordan was. His impact went beyond iso scoring. Anyhow... Kevin Durant is the best 1 on 1 player in the world and it's not close. He's one of the guys that was a product of Jordan's career.

They don't understand how ball dominance a la KD can cause teammates to become less versions of themselves.

But in terms of playing in an NBA game? Steph Curry >>>>>>>>>> Kevin Durant. This game proves it. Well, a much larger sample size than this game... it's just further confirmation, really.

It sucks, and it is what it is. I wish it was still LeBron, but everyone gets old.

Curry gets trapped as he's passing the half court line. That opens up so much for his team offensively, and he doesn't dominate the basketball. He keeps it moving. And just as important as moving the ball, he moves without the ball. That's absolutely vital for his effectiveness and not letting his team get stagnant.

Oh well, **** James Harden. That guy is the biggest fraud in NBA history. No, I'm not exaggerating.

i disagree. However it's ridiculous that KD was 10% more efficient when curry was in the game compared to when he wasnt in the playoffs(jumped from 60ts% to 70ts%). Dude's impact is crazy and fits so well in so many teams

Like Ive said befor, the only players to distort defenses like that have been MJ and Shaq, they collapsed defenders to the basket, Curry brings them out 30 feet from the bucket...

Curry's offensive gravity has the same impact but in an inverse way from MJ/Shaq. Incredible.

Draymond is HUGE for the offense as well. Without his IQ, ability to put the ball on the floor, and passing, then the Warriors offense would be much worse.

He is THE OUTLET for every Steph double team and Draymond plays the role perfectly.

2016 LeBron was still the best for a series and for the playoffs... 2019, 2018, 2017... Steph.

But if you count regular season and playoffs, it's been Steph for probably 4 years, TBH. LeBron has been too old to put up a dominant regular season + dominant playoffs since about 2016. He's saved himself for the playoffs.

So I mean, we can start splitting hairs when we talk about what "best" really means but to me, it's... who is the most effective player for a regular season and postseason... and that answer to me has been Curry since the 2016 season.

This is correct, but the Warriors could drop Draymond with a lesser version of himself and be just fine. The Warriors couldn't drop Curry and be ok.

I know but Draymond has a similar effect as Curry on offense when they have the 2015/2016 lineup playing (like tonight).

Green's +- was just as high, maybe even higher than Curry's was in 2016...It's Green and Curry as a DUO on offense that is the double team combo breaker.

However I disagree with Curry being for sure the best player over since 2017...you are being a prisoner of the moment with that.

Curry has been top 3-4 though.

Bingo

Nobody sees this. Steph got the double, passed to Draymond -> Iggy -> Klay 3... wow

Which other players needed to be double teamed 27 feet from the basket?

Also, imagine if Steph got that Harden treatment... the guy is literally held onto with 2 hands on inbounds. Also gets pushed, pulled, hugged, slapped, hand checked, armbars, bumped, etc. If he got any star treatment he'd have so many FTs he'd be unstoppable

You don't get to coast the entire regular season and maintain that title.

Steph Curry has self cucked by letting Durant onto his team, and it's the only reason this is even an argument.

KD is their best iso player. Their best in a vacuum 1 on 1 player. No doubt. And this confuses a lot of people. Always has, always will. People see great 1 on 1 players and great 1 on 5 players, and they think they're the best...

But impact is the most important thing in basketball. This is why I say Bill Russell is the GOAT. Steph's impact and ability to change the game without doing it individually statistically is what puts him above KD. These guys elevates teams far beyond what they would otherwise be. KD obviously helps teams win also, but the difference in how they do it is rather dramatic. It's rather evident, if you pay attention.

Long before the playoffs started I created a thread telling everyone I'd pick Steph Curry if I want to win it all this year. He is the player that changes everything on the court. He is the hardest to plan against. Sure, you can shut him down individually but basketball being a team sport I said I'd still take him if I had to choose one player only.

So yes. He is the best player. Not the best individual player but it doesn't
matter.

In terms of impact I'd go:


Curry

Jokic

Individually Embiid would probably beat Jokic. But in a team game... no. I'm actually a fan of both. A year ago I couldn't decide who would be better beacuse I saw Hakeem kind of talent in Embiid. Jokic seems to have improved more.

95% of this board just underestimates the team game. I mean: actual basketball.

No. You underestimate the guard talent around Jokic. A healthy Embiid puts tremendous pressure on a defense. Philly has 0 speedy dynamic guards. You need those in today's league. Philly has great talent but it's useless when put together. iso mid range play of the kind that Butler provides does not distort a defense. Simmons' defender is playing free safety. This is not an environment where he can shine. The only reason to take Jokic over Embiid is health. That's it.

The 4th quarters of the last 2 games were a preview.

Well curry definitely deserves credit for playing team ball I'll give you that. He doesn't need heavy usage to be effective. I disagree with him being the best player. He's top 5 but not the best.

No, he wasn't.

LeBron was probably still the best for a single game or maybe even a series, but to me, that's not how you define best... hell, LeBron is probably *STILL* the best for a single game, maybe even a series... but I mean...

You don't get to coast the entire regular season and maintain that title.

Steph Curry has self cucked by letting Durant onto his team, and it's the only reason this is even an argument.

Curry was better than LeBron as of probably the 2016 season, which would put it at 4 years total... though obviously the Finals was a different story.

Spot on as always

Draymond says it's easy to take possessions off on offense and just hand it to Durant to go get a bucket. Durant best 1v1 player. This is much different than Warriors pre-Durant.

I watched every Warriors game (82 + playoffs) from 2014 to 2016, and most of 2017. Curry was downright special to watch. Star of the show every night and turned the team into greatness. With Durant the offense turned into a part-time all-star game.

Regardless of what Curry does on the offensive end...

Opposing teams specifically gameplan to attack him on the defensive end, because its effective and he cant guard anybody.

If Harden played defense as poorly as him, he'd be crucified.

Only star in the league that is the focus of the other teams offensive gameplan. You'll never see opposing teams try to get Lebron, Giannis, or hell, even Harden on a switch just to attack them.

Curry has been the best player the past few years. The inescapable objective conclusion despite all the noise.

Steph is not even half as good as LeBron.

He's not All-Star caliber if he isn't making threes.

Curry with Iggy and Draymond couldn't even get past Kyle Lowry's Raps

Sure Mac. Best 5-year stretch in NBA history but he wasn't the best player during any of it. This is how you know the media has successfully brainwashed you.

LeBron? Why bring up that lesser player? He should be honored he was able to scrape together a victory in one of their four finals encounters even if it needed the league swooping in to save him to happen. His fans are now touting that win and parading it all around as LeBron's greatest achievement.
