Is Curry the only bball player ever to offensively destroy a team scoring 0 points?

He’s the only bball player to ever blow a 3-1 lead in the Finals

Steph doing Steph things.
Where other players try to win by scoring as much as possible, he won by scoring nothing.
Next level. An original.
He'll go down as the greatest player of this era and he didn't need ESPN forcing the narrative upon us.

After all, it is a team sport
Gotta respect him for that...
He always chose the team winning, over his own empty stats.
Someone else would have more titles if he did the same.
Many less embarrassments too
Maybe even some damn respect
LeSelfish has always been his own worst enemy.

He's also the only player to be 3-1 vs Lebron in playoff series.

penetrators are met at the rim with multiple defenders, so only elite jumpshooters that can blow the game open get doubled-teamed.

How he managed to beat LeBron, esp in '15 & '18, is the stuff of legends Originally Posted by hold this L

Lebron always needed an equal-scoring partner to get elite 1st option stats because Lebron himself can't win with high scoring - his high scoring is too inefficient at the higher jumpshooting volume (2015) or ball-dominant (2009)

Curry, Iggy & Dray missed 1 game combined in that series, not quite the same as Kyrie/Love playing 1 game combined in 2015 Originally Posted by warriorfan

He won in 2013 with Wade averaging 16 ppg, literally one of the lowest ppg for a title winning 2nd option ever Originally Posted by 3ba11

He needed Wade to outscore the opposing 1st option in 2013 Finals, while AD led the entire league in playoff scoring in 2020 and Kyrie matched his scoring in 2016 - so he never won a Finals while carrying the team, aka without dominant teammates
Ultimately, it's a skill deficit - Lebron always needed an equal-scoring partner against the best teams (Finals) to get elite 1st option stats because Lebron himself can't win with high scoring - his high scoring is too inefficient at the higher jumpshooting volume (2015) or ball-dominant (2009)Last edited by 3ba11; 10-15-2021 at 08:45 PM.

So yes, if Gasol counts as low production from a teammate, 2013 Wade does too
