Let's talk about Stephen Curry

[maliciousintent]

Where do you guys see his career going in the distant future?
I hope that he can become a top 5 player in the NBA one day.

 

[ricardo malta]

Another Steph Curry thread? Really?

 

[bangdak]

Top 30, yes.



Top 5? Thats reserved for KD, Melo, Wade, Lebron, CP3, Dwight, Deron etc.

He's going to be good. Real good. Let's chill on that top 5 though.

He's going to be an all star when steve Nash retires. A lot of nters are going to hold nellyball against him, but his feel for the game is undeniable.

No shot at Top 5 IMO... Very, very good career and probably a solid #2 at his peak, but he's not gonna be LeBron, Wade, etc...

 

[bruce waynee]

This dude has 17 points 12 assists 5 steals and 4 boards midway through the 3rd.

 

[jason23richardson]

Am I the only one who thinks 16 ppg is bad for Nelly's system?

No doubt though, kid can play

 

[bruce waynee]

This dude is gunning for a quadruple double

23 points 14 assists 7 steals 6 rebounds after 3

He should join Lebron or Wade when his contract expires. The amount of open looks those two will get him

Top 5?

TOP 5??!??

That tier has to be earned, you don't project somewhere there after a rookie season. There are vets who will be holding down that spot for a long time.

Curry has exceeded my expectations for sure, particularly in his court vision and how well he's done taking control. He flirts with ridiculous stat lines that 10 year pros don't come close to, and he's only a rookie. With that in mind he can definitely be a perennial All-Star, put up triple doubles with ease, and can be a top guard with time. But there are too many variables with a career, especially when they're still young. Injuries, trades, new roles, etc. Just appreciate a young player doing very well for the time being, and relax with the lofty expectations.

It's easy to get good numbers on a team that chucks up the ball, plays no defense, and he also benefits from not having the opposing team's best defender on him because he's not the go to guy on the team.

Not top 5, but he'll be a very solid player for years to come.

Bron, Melo, KD, Kobe, & Dwight have the top 5 spot for a good couple of years.
