A wise man once said “Look at Curry man so inspirational”
James Wiseman is that wise man

Curry is great but that kid ain’t wise 😂. He don’t even know basketball. He thinks Curry is as good as MJ lol

The fact that Curry’s legacy was in “question” after a few games is ridiculous. This has to be the only Era where champions and future hall of famers ( Curry, James, Leonard, Durant etc) legacies get disrespected so easily and picked apart game to game. Imagine if social media was in the 80’s or 90’s. Appreciate the legends while they’re still playing
@@justinr8790 it’s crazy and ESPN/Fox is a big reason why people think the way they do
Can we just stop all the Hate Damien Lillard and Curry may look similar but are actually not so similar. Dame is more athletic and I think a better defender when he is putting in the effort.
We're questioning his legacy as if he wasnt responsible for one of the biggest playstyle and team composition shifts in league history smh. Regardless of how bad or good hes playing we can NEVER take that away from him.
If social media was around in the 80s/90s people would be a lot harder on Hakeem Olajuwon.
Instead of bringing up his positives they would bring up how he routinely got owned by the Sonics and got bounced out of the 1st round a whopping 9 times,

*Drops 31 in the first half*

This isn't getting enough attention. He dropped 31 in the first half, then dropped 31 AGAIN in the second half. That isn't a thing. People don't do that. Kobe didn't even break 30 in the first half of his 81pt game.

Let’s be honest, has anyone ever seen a greater shooter than Stephen Curry?
That’s not even a debate. He is the greatest shooter mankind ever see
My favorite player of all-time/Hall of Famer, Drazen Petrovic - Reggie Miller even claims that Petrovic is the best shooter that he went up against. Petrovic played like Stephen Curry/Luka Doncic; his career was cut short due to tragedy, and only got to play 4 years; two full years showing his true skills as the leader of the Nets. He had the mentality like MJ and Kobe. He's a big "what-if" story had he started in the NBA and tragedy didn't take his life away.

He’s a guy with the best quick release and shooting stroke
I think Klay and Ray has a better release. However, Curry doesn't really need to be on his shooting form he just needs to be able to square his shoulders at the perfect time. That's what makes him better than the rest.
Same reasons my wife left me
Yea, his quick release is just ridiculous. It looks like a random throw, then it got in.

I am a LeBron fan and i can't understand why fellow lbj fans can't appreciate greatness where there is. LeBron is averaging 22 PPG this season/Curry with 32 PPG. Yet LeBron is getting overwhelmed and Curry is getting pressurized by the media? I understand that those are better stats in scoring, yet smh Curry is "struggling" bc the team is losing? In my opinion, Steph has no struggles. Its the team in general.

I don't watch NBA regular games as much, but he's probably the only player that I actually want to tune in if the team was playing on TV. He has that competitiveness / confidence like Jordan/LeBron, that a lot of NBA players don't have, that's what makes him so clutch and fun to watch.
