Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[MVP]

How am I insufferable?

Not you man, sly. He circled the Lakers for some reason because of his dumb logic.

 

[tyevvyotcu]

First real critical statement that's reasonable and fair.

I agree Curry does get coddled, but a lot of that is due to the nature of the current state of the NBA and his overall game. If the league was much tougher and he had more of a physical game, he'd be treated differently.

why does it bother people that he's coddled though
if you hate on someone just because everyone else likes him that's cornball **** lol

Enough said.

That doesn't address the point though.


But if the Heat did beat Dallas Lebron probably woulda got the MVP cuz for them to win he would've had to play great.


But bacl to the point...


We know got damn well if Lebron didn't win those MVP's or if Kobe didn't win those MVP's people would kill them. That ain't even a question. Steph was a babied superstar and still kinda is.

And that's all there is to it. Dudes start playing mental gymnastics when it comes to curry and his shortcomings. Lebron gets clowned for Allen and Irving hitting crucial shots in the finals, I would love to see the commentary if he didn't win the finals MVP.

All that curry is trash talk is nonsense because he's still an elite player, he's just coddled a lot, especially for a unanimous MVP.

But we haters by saying that.


He's the goat shooter but he does not get treated the same way other superstars have been treated in the past.

I don't understand all of the Curry hate. Is it due to shimming on the court when he's on (because every superstar has done something when their doin work besides players not coached by Pop).  Is it because of his wife and kids? Is it because there hasn't been any real dirt on dude or the unanimous MVP or because he's light-skinned?

I'm really trying to understand the mindset.

 

[tyevvyotcu]

dudes were saying steph was better than bron last year
but steph also doesn't catch flack because he isn't on bron's level lol
which one is it

Because he isn't as good as people lead on. Especially when people actually play defense on him. And its been showing.

There thats it

Not mutually exclusive. Steph was better than Bron last season up until the Finals. He does get a pass as well that Bron and others have been crucified for.

The league itself is complicit in this as well though. They definitely were trying to usher Bron out the door as the face of the league, plus his relatability to the younger fans.

Last year, from an offensive standpoint, I don't who you'd take over Steph Curry. Sure, Lebron overall is more complete player but Steph  sort of a breath of fresh air as to how the game is played.

He doesn't catch the same type of flack as Lebron but he was still getting flamed for not showing up in the Finals and much of that OKC series.

Add to it Steph was receiving deserved slander for his finals performance last season

He hasn't been as good this year when compared to what he did last year and the year before but this guy is elite. If he cut out all the silly passes and overdribbling, he'd probably play better.

that's reasonable and fair
I mean that ty dude said KD joining the warriors was ok because he isn't as good as bron
everyone has narratives and that isn't going to change

Steph deserves all the criticism he is due. I won't make excuses for his numerous questionable shots and the occasional boneheaded pass. But cats out here wilding though talkin about dude is trash. Some dudes on NT think in extremes and absolutes. If Steph is trash, then what does it mean for the vast majority of the league?

 

[tyevvyotcu]

yes he was but
Bron caught slander for winning the finals
please don't sit here and try to act like it's the same

I tried to steer it man....I tried

Gotta be better next time

Don't engage

There's only one saying he's trash. And really he should be on everybody's block list at this point.

Bron got slander for winning a finals?

By what rational person. You gotta learn how to decipher the difference between people who are objective and then the sly snipers of the world.

 

[captaintuxable]

Peeped Game 1 of the 91 Finals on Yoututbe. One of the greatest Finals games ever.

lmaooooo facts but yeah dudes were clowning him cause kyrie and ray hit the shots.
my overall point though is that it shouldn't bother you that a player isn't disliked lol
