Jayson Tatum has playoff games over 50, why doesn't Stephen Curry?

[Stanley Kobrick]

in fact, stephen curry only has 2 playoff games scoring over 40 points for his career. why does stephen curry's production fall off the map when playoff physicality picks up and refs tend to swallow their whistle? yet tatum and ja morant are seamlessly putting up 47 and 50 with ease?

[Axe]

Not only that, he scored 50 and won as well. Plus, he did so without his co-star jaylen brown too.

Curry's a regular season superstar who stat pads vs lottery teams and shrivels in the post season vs real competition


Not much else to it

Curry stains have a hard time acknowledging this truth :(

Right because the 76 points he scored in the play in games were against lottery teams in blowouts.

:facepalm

I would take Tatum over curry

What does Tatum get for scoring 50 in a playoff game?

Meanwhile Curry is a living legend.

Well he just had an iconic postseason game without being on a stacked team, mr. he-who-must-not-be-named.

it seems many young players are having iconic playoff moments, which makes me wonder why we've yet to see one from 33yo stephen curry

Lebron only has 1 in over 260 games.

Where is his playoff game ring?

good point, stephen curry has rings and not a single playoff game anyone can recall. yet jason tatum already has a handful of memorable moments at the ripe age of 22yo.

originally read Jason Tatum as 22 playoff series through age 22 then realized that would be ridiculous expectation considering most players would have difficulty attaining playoffs five times in first five years, or maybe even ten years

He turned a team that drafted him into a dynasty. Lebron won 1 title in 11 years for that.

[72-10]

I'd say that Curry doesn't go for that quite as deliberately and looks to pass more.

I think Kerr is holding him back. Curry needs to turn into a chucker and the iconic playoff moments will come. I’m talking 25 shots a night anything less is a failure on the coach

no wonder he always plays hot potato in the clutch and defers to Draymond Green for the final shot :ohwell:
