    I guess it's cool to try to discredit Curry now

    I ain't never think he was the best but he still the man. He got mauled all series...? last 2

    Klay the one who let them down. He had a terrible series and he ain't better than Harden

    you mean the same Klay that guards his man so he can focus on shooting wild 3s and throwing behind the back passes in crunch time

    The same Klay who got cooked by Kyrie and wasn't hitting shots/aggressive

    He took no pressure off Curry the series....Klay played a game and a half worth of good ball in 7

    A lot of dudes called him the best SG in the league after game 6 in OKC, he didn't show up as the 2nd option

    Harrison Barnes let them down too but it's Harrison Barnes

    Klay needs to become a better ball handler or learn to post up. Jefferson, JR, and Kyrie would've got embarrassed on Harden for a whole series

    Smh... I do believe it was Curry who was getting cooked all series. Klay "D" up on Bron, Kyrie, JR, and Love and he played better than Curry in the series. His 37 pt battle against the 41 pts of both Bron and Kyrie....


    Steph was getting that work ... But so was Klay; especially by Kyrie.

    Take the blinders off, my friend.

    You don't see me denying that, Bruh.


    We can discuss Curry playing poorly without pretending everyone else on the court played flawlessly.


    Y'all so paranoid, that you pretend that the only time Kyrie scored is when Curry was on him ... When in reality Klay was his primary defender.


    "But but Klay was awesome on Defense, it's all on Curry!!!!"


    It's called objectivity, fam. That's the reason you get these responses. Y'all aren't objective.

    Guess what happens when lebron's jumper is off.......Everything else happens. His signature play of the finals was a block. He was supposed to be Magic Johnson. Nah....That ? is Lebron James.

    LESWISSARMY JAMES.

    Can scor like Jordan
    Can rebound like Rodman
    Can assist and pass like Magic,Stockton
    Can post up Nearly ERRBODY like Shaq
    Can be unstoppable like Shaq
    Can block like Dikembe
    Can steal easy like he 6.3
    Is top 3 when he is in Cruise control mode


    Reads the the game like Greg Popovich
    Can bring a nobody team to the finals by himself

    Can play point guard for 5 seconds, then post up for 6 seconds, then kick out to the perimeter, Grab the rebound and score. In cases he will follow the fastbreak for a chaseblock.

    For for a DECADE !!!!

    WILL WE SEE THAT AGAIN?

    Arent some people that BLIND?

    I never said he didn't get beat at times but he played defense against four different guys and did pretty well and forced Kyrie to take some bad shots

    You're being passively agressive... Not everyone is looking at it like how you're portraying it

    Steph on some otherworldly ? but I feel like ? just got LeBron fatigue. Like how they couldn't give Michael the MVP trophy every season just because.

    Bron still the best overall player, imo but I can't knock anybody voting Steph

    No choice but to officially switch my vote.

    Cheph Curry that ? right now

    I be in these threads hedging like a mfer smh

    Klay still played a better series than Curry.
    I don't see it....and they were both getting cooked by Kyrie.

    Curry 22.6ppg 4.9reb 3.7assts 40%FG 40%3Pt
    Klay 19.6ppg 3.0reb 1.9assts 42%FG 35%3Pt

    Even though he was getting chopped up, Klay still played MUCH better defense than Curry

    As the games went by, it was who ever Curry guarding offense.

    He played better defense by "default"...They were both getting killed (just Klay less)....at that point it doesn't even matter...bad defense is bad defense.

    i still stand by my vote..

    wasnt gonna argue then and damn sure aint about to now..
    but if u think Curry is better then LeBron at anything other then shooting from the dressing room ur a ? idiot..

    cause when he steps on the court ITS THE KIIIIIINNNG BIIIIITTTTCHH!!

    I like how Curry stans never address this

    No sane person denies that Lebron is a better all around player than virtually anyone who ever lived.

    But when a player shoots THAT good and his team sets records and wins titles because of it, you have to give him the edge.

    If Lebron didn't find his jumpshot, these Finals would have ended differently.

    Lebron with a jumper is an unstoppable basketball player.

    But lebron did tho. You can't argue hypotheticals when there was a real world result. This whole entire thread you were ridin Steph Currys ? like a camel jockey and when your light skinned savior didn't show up, you move the goal posts.

    Stop it my ?

    NH.

    Y'all love talking about men's ? . Chill out.


    I am not arguing hypotheticals. I am talkin what's real.

    Lebron with a consistent jumpshot is unstoppbale. He didn't have one during the regular season, and frankly he hasn't for the last few years...



    Contrary to popular believe, a series isn't won or lost with one person. And NBA players ... even HOFamers, Who have accomplished much more than Steph; have performed poorly...

    And *gasp* ... They've lost in the playoffs, too.

    Shout to Magic, Micahel, Wilt, Shaq, Lebron, Hakeem, KAJ etc etc



    Tripple teaming and roughing up Steph completely took him off his game. That's on him.

    But that doesent erase what he's done.

    Man I used to be just like you
    Hell at 3-1 in the finals I was getting my "it's hall of fame ? with 0 rings but a ? gon scoff at 2?! He'll be back next year anyway! Lebron ain't the only ? that gotta show up for them to win!!!! Blah blah blah feelings emotions feelings!!!"
    Feels good to have a summer of ? talking at my convenience

    Lol

    Y'all still in your feelings. He WAS the best player in the league that year.

    Period.

    Ain't just me saying it ... the record books and the entire NBA said as much with their votes.





    But IMO he choked in the Finals two years in a row...
    Wasn't the first to do it, won't be the last either.

    But, he gets knocked down a few pegs because of that.

    I love Kawhi, but he's top 4 at best. Can't put him ahead of KD, Lebron or Westbrook yet. Even Curry and AD are debatable.
