Players that ruined the sport they played for everyone else and should hang their head in shame

Should he pay with a career ending injury?

>>63860309
LeBron gets tackled on the way to the rim and that's "perfectly fine". I don't see why people don't just start running under curry when he chucks his m3m3 pointers like a faggot.

Mad because he's not giving you MUH DUNKS

This ain't NBA JAM boy, Dunking showboats are relics of the past.

People who can actually SHOOT the ball are better than tall guys who can only jump up and slam.
>>
Literally >asspained, the thread
>>
I don't get what he does so well. He definitely didn't deserve MVP over Harden, and since he didn't win Finals MVP, he's overrated
>>
Who would you rather watch on a weekly basis Steph Curry or Blake Griffin?
>>
How are people mad about a shooter, I'm personally tired of watching a show on ESPN and only seeing highlights of fucking people dunking. It's stupid
>>
>people calling him a meme

The fuck? 18-0 isn't a fluke, the dude is fucking killing it and we should be thankful we get to witness this display

It'd be so easy to hurt him. Just aim for the ankles

have to agree with this
a dunk here and there is fun but watching someone that can shoot from all over the court is impressive

Agreed. The game clock slowly ticks away to the moment CP3 chokes the game away. Compelling television.

Steph is the most entertaining player since Michael Jordan.

For the banter. I love it.

I like the Warriors but I just hate Bay Area faggots. Worst region in the country.
>>
>>63860912
I disagree, he is great but it isn't the most interesting thing to watch for me. There are a lot of worse players who have more entertaining games
>>
>>63861054

>for me

That's because you're a faggot. Noticed how my statement had no personal bias in it.
>>
>>63860912
The Warriors have tremendous team chemistry. Steph has a cast that compliments him, just like Jordan during the Bulls era.
>>
>>63859956
We all agree he's better than Jordan right?
>>
>>63861190
No. He's just playing in babby finesse loldefense era basketball.
>>
feels good watching the future GOAT in his prime. I used to be a big lebron fan but he is not on currys level i'm afraid and I am now a huge curry fan.
>>
>>63861190
If he continues to be at this level for the next 5-6 seasons and win a few more ships at least back-to-back and another MVP or so, then maybe.

He'd have to threepeat and maybe have a 80 win season to legitamately enter into any real talk. Even then, pretty sure Jordan played in a much rougher era of basketball.
>>
>>63864481
jordan didn't have to play against zone d though (it was illegal at the time allowing him to maximize production off iso plays) and had a ridiculous supporting cast. (although the warriors are pretty fucking good too)

curry can do way more than shoot

jimmer and doug mcdermott can shoot just as well as him but are nowhere near as good ballhandlers

curry is a combination of Steve Kerr, CP3, and Iverson. Curry is the most amazing talent the NBA has ever seen, accept it
>>
why do people keep up the meme that steph only shoots threes? he's elite at everything a PG should be able to do while also being the greatest shooter of all time
>>
>>63868494
Curry is single-handedly saving basketball desu.

Friendly reminder that Lebron beat this Warriors team twice in the Finals without Love AND Kyrie.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhnRtgBGMl4

watch this video (there is no audio so load up some fire jams), and then ask yourself if you'd rather watch plays like these being made, or plays like a guy dribbling up the court and draining a 3 pointer without passing to anyone.

if you would rather see a dude push off and hit a step back three than creative, artistic passes, you aren't a basketball fan. you're a fan of this newfangled "basketball."

when the 3 point line was introduced, it ceased being basketball.
>>
wow, le 2-4 meme. Lebron has made 6 Finals and has 4 MVPs, 2 FMVPs, at the age of 30. Compare his resume at 30 to litterally anyone else in the history of the NBA.

NBA champion 1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964

Born February 12, 1934 (age 81)

can you guess who? by the way 1964 minus 1934 in case your reading comprehension is poor

thanks a lot curry, you ruined local basketball
>>
>>63869571
how can someone be elite when they get all these free trips to the finals and fail twice as much as they win? soon to be 2-5 t b h
>>
>>63869890
local basketball is always shit when you play with fags. they used to yell Kobe instead but you're probably too young for that
>>
>>63869890
>things that never happened
this will never be the case, Curry can hit a shot from anywhere because hes spent literal tens of thousands of hours practicing his shot. everyday local pickup scrubs are just going to brick every shot and give up
>>
I love these threads. After having to watch shitty Warriors basketball for most of my life, it's fucking great to watch them now, and it's almost as great to see people so butthurt about it.
>>
>>63869563
curry does no look passes, random pulling the ball around his waist before dishing passes, lobs, and all sorts of cool passing shit

shut the fuck up

He also played shut down perimeter defense.

NBA general; can someone please explain how, when an offensive player is (generally traveling) towards the basket, and a defensive player is standing there, doing nothing--and then the offensive player destroys him on the way to the basket--but then it's a defensive foul for "letting the player run into you because..you didn't get out of the way fast enough to let him score?"

So the offensive player is at fault for being assaulted by the defensive player on the way to the hoop? So then in football if you sack the QB it's actually your fault and you lose 15 yards?

Yeah man, because 30 point 2nd quarter leads are entertaining. Face it, the NBA is dying, there are 27 shit teams that literally have no chance to win anything

There is a way to fix this. Make dunks worth 3 pts and layups still worth 2pts. Move the 3pt shot range out further.

Now we can slam again.
>>
>>63880970
And over half of the teams make the playoffs. That's the worst part about the NBA. The regular season means absolutely nothing. If you're decent and show up for 40% of your games you get into the postseason.
>>
>>63860530
Definitely not Blake, not on BG though, that floppin lil nigga they got at PG ruins the games.

Put Blake on a real team and he'd be legit, the clippers are holding that man back.

But as it stands, it's the warriors, they are defending champs are are destroying everyone, they'll lose eventually but for now, they are a beating, usually not even close games, everyone.

>>63880970
>He doesn't want to see the best team to hit the NBA in a long time because it's not "competitive"

Perhaps the rest of the NBA should get better. Faggot.

NBA died couple of years ago, not last year. It had a good run.

Messi and Ronaldo.

Btw, I watched Bulls vs Jazz (97) series yesterday, that was some great basketball. What are some great finals to watch? Maybe Lakers and Celtics form the 80s.

maybe he destroyed the game

or maybe
