Stephen Curry versus Kobe Bryant: Looking at the numbers — WARRIORSTALK

Until recently, it didn’t seem appropriate to have an all-time comparison between the two. The catalyst, which sparked a firestorm on NBA Twitter, was the placement of Stephen Curry at No. 10, four spots ahead of Kobe in Bleacher Report’s all-time NBA player rankings.

To prove his point, creator of the list, Andy Bailey (@AndrewDBailey), did a blind poll on Twitter.

Player A (Stephen Curry’s career): 25.1 PTS, 7.1 AST, 4.8 REB, 3.8 3P, 1.8 STL, 0.2 BLK per 75 possessions, +8.0 rTS%, + 6.5 Box +/-, +8.9 Net Rating (+12.1 swing)

Player B (Kobe Bryant’s 10-year peak): 27.7 PTS, 5.2 AST, 5.8 REB, 1.4 3P, 1.6 STL, 0.6 BLK per 75 possessions, +3.0 rTS%, +5.1 Box +/-, +5.2 Net Rating (+7.0 swing)

Unsurprisingly, Player A won overwhelmingly 83% to 17%.

The ratio was even more one-sided when playoff numbers were used. (Side note: Curry also beat out Magic Johnson with a 90-10 margin in a six-year peak blind poll)

They got to respect it sooner or later

Maybe im blinded by all these preseason games against the lakers who are obviously a more talented team than the warriors, but I think the warriors are really gonna struggle this year. If they are .500 by the time Klay is back I would consider that a success.

Gotta be patient, 4 of our top 7 players haven't played a minute in preseason but yeah this shyt is ugly.

I wouldn't even mind if we're trash this year if it meant a high draft pick.

 

[Cladyclad]

Right??!!?? And I'm not the 'search post history and get receipts' but it's been awfully quiet on pretty much everything pro-KD since he joined the Dubs so I know some of them in those threads were just shi**ting on him last year....SMMFH.

SOHH I guess the real problem was that we were going to win.


Dubs in 6.

In their minds the Dubs are no longer an insurmountable obstacle for Bron

Bron stans getting awfully hype about these preseason games tho

Damn fu*king up my posting this morning...



A few things:

We have until Monday to make this all work. At this point, I'd like to see McKinnie waived (even though I'd like to keep him), cut Ky Bowman (even though I'd like to keep him, maybe he can sign to our GLeague team?) and sign Chriss/Toscano.

We shall see.....

Marquese Chriss questioned his love for the game. The Warriors brought it back

Warriors are fukked at SF regardless of whether we keep Mckinnie or not so to me cutting him is a no brainer. Chriss has looked way better than McKinnie and can serve as a good pick and roll partner with Russel.
