Offensive Box Plus/Minus, PER & True Shooting %

MJ was great but Curry beats him in every category and handily in OBPM and TS%.

Alternative facts

Steph does have a better OPBM and TS%

 

[tyevvyotcu]

you could actually argue that peak tmac is equal to peak wade
also hot take:
harden will eventually surpass dwade

 

[awwsome]

Fun fact, Nikola Jokic is shooting 62% on 2's this season. :x

He's also the only big in modern history to have a True Shooting % over 60 while having an Assist rate over 25% besides..........



























Giannis this year.




Jokic is 21, Giannis is 22, what a time.

 

[awwsome]

30 pts in only 34 mins. Only 5 free throws a night.

Best we've seen. Curry himself probably won't ever top that even if KD never came.

Yea that type of peak only happens once.

You knew while you were watching it.

You talking to K2 smokers on a Thursday afternoon?

I'm tripping. Look at this

yea barbershop talk.

A rookie Wade got further than Mac ever has, Vince was being held in check by Sasha Pavlovic

I love them but nah

Peak T-Mac was only 1 season in 03' but it was better offensively than anybody sans MJ/Bron/Curry.

Nope.

But he is the 2nd or 3rd best PG of all time

 

[freddy fig]

Who?

 

[the collector]

When I say adjust for era I'm not talking about defense from Jordan's era but how physical the game was. I can't picture Curry styling on those Pistons teams. They would have literally beat him up. None of that physical play is allowed in today's game. Maybe I'm selling Currys toughness short.

 

[freddy fig]

Curry wouldnt last a quarter with joe dumars sticking him

 

[hardens beard]

Here we go with 90's nostalgia ball.

Great players are great in any era. Curry would be just fine.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Jack twyman would've put the clamps on steph

 

[wavycrocket]

Mark Price got busy in the MJ era

Imagine what Steph would do :x

Sorta playing Devil's Advocate here

Curry would be great, sure. But would he be able to put up the historically great numbers he did last year?

I mean we'll never know, but I can see both sides of the argument.

 

[addict4sneakers]

In the fast paced 80s? Steph would have ate.

Only like three guards in the 80s had sauce. Steph would have been fine

Exactly.

****** always sound crazy saying this ****.

Seriously, if Stockton made it out at 6'1 and 175 Steph wouldn't have had a problem. Lightskin bias

 

[bonafide101]

Out of prime Wade, Carter and Mcgrady, I'm taking Wade. He'd give me the same offensive production as the other two while shooting a better percentage and playing better defense. He would make up for the lack of a 3pt shot by giving me 3's the hard way. Aka D-Whistle...ask the 2006 Mavs, lol.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Curry and his bag, gravity included, are timeless in any era

 

[addict4sneakers]

Mark Jackson averaged 17/8 one year and he moved like he played in timbs.

 

[freddy fig]

yall got ur money on steph curry with the shot this yr?

 

[the collector]

Neither Mark Price or John Stockton were elite scoring threats the likes of what MJ or Curry are. They wouldn't have gotten the attention Curry would have as a elite all time great scorer.

Those examples of Price and Stockton don't work in comparison to Curry. Neither Price or Stockton ever averaged 20 points in a season.

 

[Proposition Joe]

Agreed, I've always hated that "back in the day he wouldn't have did that" talk

 

[the collector]

Mark Jackson averaged 17/8 one year and he moved like he played in timbs.

17 PPG isn't comparable to Curry.

Obviously but if mark Jackson could average 17, what do you think a mutant like Steph could do?
