I think this is an assumption though, not a fact. I think there is a huge difference between Steph not attempting a shot in the 4th (which ends up in a win), and Bron being guarded by Curry in crunch time and him giving the ball to a teammate (and ending up losing).

Bron not taking a shot in the 4th would not result in a win, so your "even if" comment can basically be dismissed. Your comparison is disingenuous, IMO.

But my point isn’t really about how the game would unfold, but how certain people in here would react to certain scenarios playing out. It’s a hypothetical to begin with, so I’m not sure how it can be disingenuous. But hey, agree to disagree.

I got you now. I see what you are saying but Bron is pretty much a consensus top 3 player of all time (some say top 1). IMO, the bar which the two of them should be measured to are not at the same level. Even the biggest Steph Curry fans out there have Bron on a higher level, individually.

You sure about that? Especially ON HERE?

Who got banned and came back as Mike dunleavy ?

is that black migo (again)?

Who’s alt acct is Mike dunleavy

Is that y’all mans @Duke330? It would make sense since the name is a relatively obscure Duke player. We need Meth/mods to confirm

me seeing yall about to hoop, knowing i cant, and havent really been able to since i had my newborn. SIGHHHHHHHHH

 

[Based Jesus]

He could have easily gone around but they needed a 3 to tie. Love didn't need to clamp him, he just needed to stay at the 3 point line.

Nah bruh...people actually do that on the court? I was I’m the ICU/Hospital for about 2.5 weeks last month and I got so many different IVs and blood draws that my arm looks like I’m a god damn heroine fiend. I’m definitely rocking long sleeves all summer.

My feeling is that the Warriors are going to be conservative and hold Klay out of game 3 because of the risk of re-aggravating his hamstring injury.

It is kinda like Steph can do no wrong in some people's eyes tho. He gets cooked on defense or has a stinker on offense and some of yall just dismiss that and highlight the other things he does. And I actually don't disagree, he does affect the game in ways other quote unquote superstars can't be bothered to do. But that doesn't mean he's still not having a bad game and could/should be doing more.

And I actually like Steph I just feel yall go overboard with the praise at times

This. I really do mess with Steph, but dudes be going OD.

 

[storm2006]

Congrats on the new born my dude. You just gotta get your kid on the Nerf hoop early. When I’m hoop deprived because of schedule/life constraints, I definitely shoot everything or lay it up into the trash/laundry bin to keep my form and layup package tight. I guess that’ll be you with all them diapers Ball is life.

Steph is one of the few offensive players who has great impact while missing shots. Missing shots is still obviously not a good thing tho but to same if he's missing shots, he's worthless is a bad take.
Currys bad games are still all star impact, that's the difference.
No one saying missing shots is a good thing.

You a good dad tek. Congrats bruh.
I remember when my kids were born I left the hospital that night to go play some pickup.
Now either

Or ima bad father.

Meanwhile Igoudala, Draymond, Demarcus, and Klay had more assists than Steph

But y’all out here trying to crown him GPGOAT

 

[monstar]

Klay hurt his left leg and in that video he is hardly moving it except when jumping to shoot, instead doing his best to put more on his right legt for the landing.

show him moving from one spot to the next then we can judge it

Fans of steph love steph and those that hate him , just hate him. LEt it be stop trying to sway people when we all know its pointless.

The man is that good for us to be having a convo, the same way we do Bron and KD I am sure a number of NBA players would love the level of attention both extreme sides have.

team assist'> one player getting alot of assist.
many of which are opened by stephs impact.
You obviously have trouble understanding things so I'll post it again..

 

[dland24]

You sure about that? Especially ON HERE?

I dont believe that if you strapped everyone up to a lie detector machine, that anyone could truthfully say that Curry is individually better than LeBron James. Lets be honest....what people post on NT arent always truthful opinions.
