Kobe
Shaq
Duncan
KG

All players who would drop 40 on you while being guarding your best player and holding them to 15 points

That don't even include cats like Iverson, Kidd, Dirk, Tmac, Vince

Iverson, T-Mac, Vince, and Dirk would not be better than a prime Curry. :skip:

And let's say somehow KG is better than Curry, that would still leave him Top 5 at worst, so yeah he would be in the conversation. :snoop:

And Jason Kidd, a nikka who barely averaged 12 points and scored 40 points twice in his career could score 40 on any given night? Lay off the crack nikka. :skip:

T-Mac's 02-03 season is arguably = to Curry this season based on advanced metrics....maybe better given defense and roster:dwillhuh:

Which metrics?

Curry has a higher PER, almost as many PPG on drastically higher efficiency (Difference between AI and Durant), higher win shares, and he did this all with a lower usage rate plus playing almost 6 less minutes a game.

Iverson and T-Mac couldn't dream of putting up 30 on the efficiency that Curry is doing. :mjlol:

nikka Steph demands more defensive attention than any player since Shaq. The hell are you talking about? "Allowing him to score easier." :mjlol:

He can "score easier" because he's just as deadly off ball as he in on ball. :mjlol:

They played on worse teams where the defense was more physical for them because of hand checking and the high amount responsibility they had on the offensive end.

Curry has other players on the squad that are offensive threats so it's easier and no hand checking.

You over here talking about efficiency without mentioning the fact that the rules are different now compared to then and the actual players around Curry that helps him on the offensive end.

Use single series to judge a player rather than the entirety of a season.



Who cares?

Post the stats across an entire season. I don't care about single games, I look an entire seasons.

Curry was leading his team to record breaking seasons that no one thought would ever get beaten while winning back to back MVPs while shytting on Kobe's efficiency despite taking crazier shots.

Kobe couldn't even shut down Steve Nash in the playoffs.
Lol

Curry Age 27:
30ppg,5rpg,7apg,2spg, 2 triple doubles

Kobe Age 24:
30ppg,7rpg,6apg,2spg, 5 triple doubles

PER, DRAPM, RAPM and TMAC did it with a roster 10000000x worse than anything Steph ever played with :mjlol:

Curry's championship run is just as good as any of Kobe's championship runs plus he scores on entirely different level.

28.3 PPG on 60% TS shyts in less minutes is better THAN any scoring Kobe has done across an entire playoff run.

No, Curry wouldn't be top 5 in the Iso era.

on gawd you think cats in the l give a fukk about all that analytical shyt¿ jahahahaa

it's a simple natural measure in the eye test

nikkas know how the 1v1 match up would play out

kobe would torch lil chef and there are plenty guards that would kill him in individual match ups

the resistance is more a response to goofy disrespectful comments and comparisons

he would get his due respect without the extra shyt if motherfukkers would stop trying to put him in convos with players he isn't the same breed as

common sense ain't common blood

Lol, you so caught up on shooting. We already know curry is a better shooter.
Next.

Kobe still had a better finals series at 23 than Curry had at 26.

You keep forgetting efficiency which is Curry's biggest advantage over Kobe. He scores just as much on drastically higher efficiency,

Curry 30 PPG in 67% TS.
Kobe 30 on 55% TS

Which is like the difference between Prime MJ and Iverson.

And thats the only season you can list which is why I said 1 :russ:

I don't really judge characters off of 4 series only. Curry's season, as a whole, shyts all over any season Kobe's ever had.

Sure, Kobe has great longevity and he's higher on the GOAT list but Curry's still had a better season.

Imagine thinking that single series overrides an entire seasons with of data.

Curry had a better scoring season than Kobe has ever had. Efficiency is a part of scoring, dumb ass.

Now post the season stat lines, including efficiency, that is BETTER than what Curry did this year.

Lol, defensive advantage>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> "efficiency" advantage, fucc outta here nikka

Its easy to be efficient in this era, where you can't even touch anybody, especially when you got a top 3 shooter in the league, and the overall best shooting team in the NBA to the ball too, thus taking defensive pressure off you.

Who was taking defensive pressure off of Kobe when Shaq wasn't there? Derek fisher? Rick Fox? Smush Parker? :mjlol:

Expose your age and lack of understanding of the game of basketball brehs
