Just look at these mongrels, Roland17 and Donlittle

Can we see a top 5 PG list from everybody?

Modified:

If I want to fix Curry in a top 5, he'd definitely be at no 5. There's no way he's playing better than Harden, WB, Thomas and Wall.

Donlittle:


If you say he isn't in your top 5 but in top 10, we will say okay, but after putting him with bledsoe and kemba it's obvious you are trolling. Well done.

Really trolling

Eruditor, your posts is all about points per game like that's the measure of how good you are.

Lebron last season and this season average same number of points. Does it mean he's the same level this season?

Lebron's best season ever was 26ppg at Heat. He had averaged 30points twice at Cleveland. Does it mean he played better?

Will you say Curry this season is better than his first MVP season even with higher ppg? No

Did Kobe with 35ppg in 2006 have a better season than Nash, the MVP? No

Did Iguodala have higher points than Curry in the finals? No

Is Brook Lopez better than Gasol cos he scores 20 a game? No

Player and Media voted Curry 3rd in Western CONFERENCE and he's really behind. The two conferences weren't collated. How many good PGs are in the West? Isn't CP3 injured?


Stop all these points, points like that decides how one player is better. I can fill a 1000 page book on where points ain't a good metric. Wiggins and Melo, Hayward and George, etc .

Curry season is good, like others having good seasons. But he's definitely not better than Harden, WB, Thomas, Wall, Lowry and the injured CP3. You shouldn't average that much and be missing in almost half of your games. Antetokounpo that averages less doesn't. Look at his "rival" Lebron, lol

Eruditor:
So let's check your honest-o-meter.

Would you rate Kyrie top 5 this season?

Already said Curry is better than him this season. You can scroll up if you missed it

Smooshchn, players average 20+ ppg but they are downright inconsistent. If I use your analogy, Lillard is better than Curry cos of his higher stats, right? Lol

You downright know Curry is the most inconsistent of all those PGs. Make Lowry or Wall get one bad game and see if their teams win the game. His influence on games this season puts him outside the top 5.

Conduct your survey yourself, you'll see what I mean. Leave sentiments

Eruditor:
You would. You are only comparing him to last season hence the chagrin.

Nope. Still won't regardless of his numbers

Can you tell me which PG Curry is more consistent or have more impact than?

Wall, Thomas, WB, Harden are carrying their teams like crazy. Lowry held the Raptors steady in deRozan's absence. CP3 is CP3 and Kyrie (who Curry may be better than) has saved Cavs more this season than Curry.

Curry can go 10 games missing and Warriors would still win. But once those PGs up there play bad, the whole team does.

Curry is still good. I adore him and love it when he's on fire but without the MVP to his name, he's having a Kemba Walker peak season.

Analysts, pundits and common twitter followers rarely put him in top 5 PG this season. I've seen a lot of list and Curry hardly makes the cut.

SmooshCHN:
I swear Lola is glitching
If she picks her top 10 PG, you won't see Curry in top 5..

I wouldn't rate Curry a top 5 PG this season honestly...

Warriors fans popping out of nowhere...

Love out of All Star. Who's gonna replace him?

I'm thinking Melo...

SIRcumalot:
He should just get to the line more when his shots are not falling.

That's what Harden does. Harden will make only 7 shots but score 35 points. IT will hit 11 shots but reach 40 points even with all the missed 3 points. And both these players don't make 90% FTs like Curry

Even after the air ball, he's still shooting 3s. Attack the rim nigga and shoot your money maker.

Impressed with Wall, Jokic and Griffin so far. They are criminally underrated. Wow

I don't know why Warriors take 3rd quarter so personal.

Curry just surpassed Stojakovic for 13th in 3Points list. He'll most likely end up 10th this season above Billups if healthy. Congrats

Derozan's numbers really going up should have influenced Lowry's negatively but I'm surprised too

Anyway, top PGs for me currently
Harden
WB
Isaiah Thomas
CP3
Wall
Lowry
Curry
Irving


MVPs for me:
Harden
Durant
Leonard

Those 3 in no particular order abeg. They're playing their destinies this season

Then:
Westbrook
Lebron
I. Thomas
Derozan
Giannis
Gasol in that order

To even think he said let's do simple Maths

And he then called Oladipo, has the same career FG% as Westbrook (43%) and one other that averages 5ppg as the shooters. Dear Lord...

Curry will always be loved by the fans, no doubt about it. He has handles that thrills us day and night. However, he's not top rated this season. Everything about him is just down that the guy can't even keep up.
Efficiency, Offensive rating, Steals, FG%, decision making. He has negative +/- in games he shouldn't. The guy is not even in top 30 3Points%, even Eric Gordon schools him in his own department with less attempted. His own fuckïng department.



We all knew Curry would decline a bit probably like Lebron type last season but nope, he went down like the naira to the dollar. Who was it last season that could score 20pts with 10 shots? Now, he takes 20 to score 20. Can't even remember when Curry made 51% of his shots in a game even a blowout. Yes, that bad. Giannis averages less but way more efficient, Durant is having the time of his life but less PPG than his career. We have seen people with 20ppg endlessly not playing well e.g. Harden last season, Wiggins, Love,Lowry this season.

99.9% of NBA fans thought the sacrificial lamb in the Warriors roster will be Klay Thompson. Who would be surprised that the same guy still plays a few notches below last season? Who thought Klay would score 60 points this season? Who thought Klay's offensive rating would still be this high?

Where has Curry dominated this season? No fuckíng clue.

Curry is doing fine, agreed but is no where near the hype he is currently more so for a unanimous MVP.

ManUtd19, you just said Lowry > Irving this season. Not Wall, not Isaiah Thomas but invisible Lowry. Loooooool, Ooh Mpa is out yo[/color]

All your points are valid but you are taking too much panadol here.
It doesn't change the fact Curry will start or he'll beat Westbrook in fan votes if in coma throughout the NBA season. Kobe last 2 years come to mind.

Personally, for me WB deserves to start but unless the rules change, he'll always be benched.

Eruditor:
7. Ok the media and players vote is near unbiased? So let us do a little maths. Media and player votes account for 50% while fans vote accounts for 50%. So except Curry's Fan's vote was waay above RWs like 2:1 it is very likely that RWs media and player votes wasn't that much above Curry's. In context, you have been talking rubbish and it shows overwhelmingly that Curry deserved to start i.e even according to your "near unbiased" metric.

Actually, Westbrook flat out murdered Curry in player and media votes. Westbrook had almost thrice of Curry's votes in both categories. That gave him 25% each = 50%

Curry won the fan votes, 1.7m to 1.5m votes I think, not that wide. This gave him 50% and equal with WB. Fan votes was then used to ice the tie. Margin was not used, you win this category, you get your percentage.

Fan votes are way too biased and should be reduced sef. Last year, Kobe started. This year, Wade and Zaza coulda started

I cried that day

SIRcumalot:
phrasing .

Derozan going crazy is what happened to the Celtics.

I wouldn't give Derozan that much credit. Celtics are one of the few teams that don't relinquish leads easily, up there with Cavs and Grizzlies. They resist and just push. Derozan and Valanciunas blowing in the 4th quarter would be Celtics factor really

But Valanciunas yesternight was BOMB!!!

Roland17, what happin? Never seen Celts lose this focus before oooo

A40:
Say what? Besides the Heat which other playoff team from last season can you categorically say is out of contention in the East? From the West just look at the likes of the Jazz and Rockets and see the kind of improvements they made with a few lowkey additions. Look at Dallas on the other hand languishing at the bottom

You talk about upsets. When was the last time an #8 seed beat a #1 seed in the East. Its happened twice in the West between 2007-2016. You think Lebron would smell 6 straight Finals in the West?

Even now you are not 100% sure the Warriors would get to the Finals but we know even without Kyrie and Love the Cavs don enter Finals

You are mixing quality and competition. How many teams in the West compete for playoff spots every season? Usually 9, sometimes the 8 teams have been decided. In the East, it's different; right now, from 5th to 11 is being separated by 2.5 games. The 8th position is a battlefield.

The quality of a conference just puts the top teams against each other. We already know they're top 7 or top 8. The competition just sets everything crazily different. The 5th placed Pacers may drop to 9th with 4 straight losses. Cavs and Raptors make that conference seem one ticket but other teams bring the energy.

Saying Warriors not sure of making the finals has to do with the other teams quality. Now ask yourself this OKC is 100% sure of playoffs even in 7th but can you say the same for Bulls in same 7th?

A40:
What is unpredictable about the East?

Teams from 3 - 15 are.

The games aren't linear. Upsets are more prevalent in the conference. The last playoff spot is always a battle between 4 or 5 teams with .50 records or more.

And every single season, they have too many team changes for the playoffs. Today, it's the Bulls qualifying. Next season, they're 10th while Nets, Pistons or Wizards rise.

The West just remains fairly constant. Major changes no go pass 1/2 teams or the standings.

sapiosexual1:
I couldnt agree with you less, the quality of the East is really quesy. I mean, how is that the 3rd best team in the West is just a game and half behind the best team in the East even with 3 all stars.
Again, Houston with the 3rd best points difference in the West betters the best scoring team in the East.
I wouldn't even tune in to watch any of the Eastern playoffs, let's just wait for The Cavs in the Finals.

With due respect, the East is more competitive than the West. Think of it as the premier league

The West is the la liga. One conference has more quality, the other unpredictable.

Eruditor:
If he keeps passing up shots an averaging 14ppg will he be MVP? If he keeps throwing behind the back passes that don't hit the target? What about if he did not have the freedom to launch some of his long distance threes? What if he was not the primary scorer for the team (like he isn't this season)?

I see your point however you have to factor in that some coach gave him the freedom that his talent deserved.

Curry already averaged 22ppg and 24ppg with 8.5apg before Kerr came on board.

Curry already broke 3pts record before Kerr came on board

Curry was an All Star and was in All NBA second team before Kerr came on board.

The Warriors already had potential which Kerr took advantage of.

Curry is his hard work not Kerr's

maasoap:
I thought the same thing but I realised that they meant the denominations she was putting in the piggybox and not about how much per day.

Then it woulda been 200, 500 and 1000. The statement "In a day from 200 - 1000" totally referred to the amount.

Besides, look at that piggy box. If you've seen 489500, you'd agree that ain't close.

theimmortals:
Oga Mathematician see as you dey calculate another person money. I bet you can't even save up to half of what you calculated in 5years. This is height of jealousy. The post never said that 1000 is the maximum, rather its a range. Sometimes he/she might put 2k. And for all those likening his comment. You all should go get a big save.

The post said Starting from 200 up to 1000

You sound more stupid than you look and that's a compliment
Don't worry about my savings, bro. I got 10x that amount in btc...

Liars...

From the post, the highest she saved was #1000. Multiply that by 11 months, even 1 year:

1000 x 365 days= 365000

Where's the supposed #130000. Even the box looks small

Wolves and Warriors should play each other soon. I want to know who gets the crown for the greatest choker.

Embiid minutes limitation is hurting this team badly. It really sucks

Wall has proved his mettle this season. I still think he's the most underrated PG in NBA

SIRcumalot:
It will be really funny if Westbrook and KD start for the West all stars.

It would be, really but not going to happen. Curry and Harden will get the most votes in the backcourt.

But never underestimate these weird NBA fanatics. Afterall, Zaza Pachulia is up there

Well, if there's one thing East does better than the West is that they actually vote all stars?

The West? Not so much

lolawilliams:
He's Russell Westbrook in Kevin Durant's body.

He doesn't shoot bricks, more efficient, blocks a whole lot of shots and has way less TOs. So no...

He's Lebron in KD's body

nurey:
2. when does number become best
answer: The maybach is a top luxury car but when the NUMBER sold didnt commensurate with cost, they just jejely merged it with the S600

3. What do i need a V8 camry for?, thats the work of the Toyota supra to destroy the benz powered V8s, like you said "When does numbers become best?"

5. V8 rearity for asians, the most common V8 engine in nigeria is still toyota V8 (lancruiser, prado, LX570, Gx460) them plenty make i no waste space. And to throw in icing on the cake, they are more common and reliable than benz V8,V9, V10, V11, V12 add V13 too,
all combined together

6. And just one more thing...in ride quality and safety and technology, the S class Mercedes isn't one of the best; it is the world's standard. Countless reviews have dubbed it that , not my words. i still dont get this, the reason why presidents buy benz is because it is cheap, a base 2017 Rolls Royce will almost buy 2 of the base 2017 S600, go and check it. The bentley flying Spur (see as i close eyes dey dream inside the car) will kill the S65 AMG (W12 6xx hp 0-62 in 4.5s, i know its 0.1s faster than the AMG)


You have successfully proven that benz is still riding on old glory, and you know what they say, Time waits for no man

Bros, your problem na English. You are still typing from a janitor angle

That your 2) answer no align with the question. To outsell one car doesn't mean it's worse than it. Toyota has discontinued models no mean say the car no good, just that e no sell. Camry outsells BMW 3 series doesn't make it better than the bravarian. Your level of understanding ehn na die...

You come go 3) dey list Toyota Supra wey no dey market to surpass the Benz. If you dey see future, tell me now ooo

8. He's clearly talking about v8 sedans which are few in Asia but noooo, you turn am to efficiency, most common and best seller.

6)This one Buhari tell you for WhatsApp say na price pursue am from buying Rolls Royce, why you no ask am why hin no buy Toyota or even the kind Lexus. Afterall, its more efficient, more reliable and it is about price from your janitor angle

Bros, I want to buy Benz but a second guesser after reading your arguments go just buy 2 Tokunbo C class with extra engine.

You be "historian" but not made any good point as to why Mercedes is no longer good in car tech.

Cheers
