All those pgs are great but Curry transcends them in one thing ;
He Changed the way basketball is being played. He's singlehandedly inspiring a new generation of players who depend on their skills and not athleticism.
Not only that but he's the best point guard in an era where this position has the most talent ever.
Not only that but he changed the narrative ( since Isaiah thomas) that point guards can't lead championship teams in scoring.
He's also arguably the most efficient guard on offense in history

To top it up, two MVP titles (one of them unanimous) in an era where the arguable "GOAT" grin is in his prime. Come on ! Put some respek on Curry's name.

In how many games? We should also bring the number of games played so we can see how Curry that was missing 40+ games a season in his first few years is still within touching distance with the best PG. lol
I know curry was injured for a while at the start of his career and that's part of the argument clown. How many good full seasons can you say Steph has?

Nowitzki changed the game. Doesn't make him the greatest big or even PF of all time. Not even close.

So what did Lebron do in 2011 finals?

In 2016, hope you know SC played with a knee injury?

I don’t want to talk about 2015 because we know what hype train is about. That is why Kyrie that was matching points with Lebron from 3-1 down including hitting the game winning shot on game 7 got not a single vote in the FMVPs.
LeBron choked in 2011. Bounced back and is having the greatest individual playoffs run in NBA history.

Curry choked in 2016. Man couldn't even beat Kevin love who was even worse than he currently is in 2016. LOL injury my bloody foot. Just an excuse the shameless bandwagoners have come up with for their sire.

Kyrie was injured and didn't play in 2015 numbskull, and if you actually think Kyrie deserved to win finals MVP in 2016 over LeBron then... Actually I'm not even surprised, like I keep saying and you keep proving me right, you're a bloody clown.

Earlier today I was engaged in what I strongly believe to be the dumbest argument I've ever been in on this thread (I know, that's saying a lot) and going back to read some of these posts and there is actually someone liking this persons posts. Now if he's not liking them himself I'm just wondering, if this guy himself strongly had me doubting whether or not he was re tarded, imagine how dumb the person liking these comments has to be. Maybe because I'm the "villain" everyone against me is right but seriously, these posts are the dumbest posts you'll ever read anywhere and if anyone actually believed any of that winnit made an iota of sense, you need to consult a professional or go back to every educational institution you've passed through (if any) not only ask for a refund but sue them for wasting your life. cheesy

Seeing what I've seen on this thread? Should I even be surprised.

Imagine how this poster above me claimed he is a member of MENSA. grin

I said the 2015 FMVP is an indication of hype train in the NBA. Such that SC with 27ppg in the finals alone was not the MVP but Iggy was for missing FTs in clutch moments. To buttress my argument, I said Kyrie who was AS good as Lebron when Cavs went 3-1 down (including hitting the deciding 3pt shot) did not even get a vote for FMVP.

How you read that and replied what you have above shows why the IQ of your multiple personalities put together will not get 100IQ let alone 147.

Game 5

LeBron 41 7 16

Kyrie 41 6 3

Game 6

LeBron 41 11 8

Kyrie 23 3 4

Game 7

LeBron 27 11 11

Kyrie 26 1 6

Forget the numbers. Scoring run to tie the game when the Cavs where about 8 or so down. Chase down block to keep the score level. Hit a free throw to make it a two possession game. Led both teams in every single statistical category for the first time in NBA history. Forget all of that, his most impressive contribution in game 7 was on the defensive end.

A m oron will come and tell you Kyrie was as good as LeBron during this stretch. Same mo ron who said Cavs won "despite" LeBron scoring 45 points (And stuck with it). Same mo ron who claimed said 45 points didn't matter.

LMAO. Pardon me if I choose to stop replying this jester.

Two time MVP (probably didn't know that did you?), One of the greatest shooters and passers of all time amongst other things. Put some respect on the man's name.

Curry = 2 time MVP, Only unanimous MVP in history, Greatest shooter of all time, 2 rings.
1 time Scoring champion. 1 time NBA steals leader.

He's essentially an improved version of nash in almost everything.

You are all shades of unintelligent. So making one of 2 free throws (to have 1 more than Kyrie's 26) or blocking Iggy at 89 a piece was more significant than Kyrie's dagger 3?

Or Cavs would have won game 5 if Kyrie had less than 41? Or game 6 if he did not have those prime finishes when the game got close?

Hope you know Bron averaged 29.7 over the whole series to Kyrie's 27.1. LOL. And in all of these you still cannot answer why this very same player got 0 vote for FMVP.

Let me read you anywhere say MENSA again. You are not even dull enough to be called dull. With posts from yesterday to easily check and this phool is typing "despite". grin grin

Repeat after me "BarthramLestat is a useless quasi intellectual" till fades....

You lot deserve curses. In a perfect world where eugenics was instated like it should a very good percentage of all the im beciles in this thread will be castrated. You are lucky we live in a soft world so if curses is the worse you're getting you should shut your mouth and take it like a man not a b-tch. i would understand why said person would rain insults on your kind. Here's an idea, how about you refrain from reading his posts since you're such a b-tch and you can't handle it.

Welcome back Kevin Love.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 12:43am On May 04, 2018
When the raptors went ahead early on i wasnt worried because the cavs offense was clicking and they were getting some friendly rolls. The cavs usually take a while to adjust defensively but when they do that defense formidable. Its just a matter of if the hole they've dug for themselves is too deep or not and why they're so good at comebacks. Problem is against elite teams like the warriors, usually the hole is too deep and their offense too proficient to be adequately defended against.

I have maintained throughout the pacers series, the problem the cavs were facing wasnt with their defence but with their putrid one dimensional offense, the match ups were just bad for the cavs and the pacers were just collectively a very good team. The cavs offense is evolving now and so far they are reaping the results.
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:54am On May 04, 2018
What is it about the Raptors that gets the Cavs offense humming like a well serviced engine. Even during the regular season the Cavs were dropping 120+ on a regular. Pretty sure this game is going to 130 at the least
