Is there a bigger fraud? Guy didn't even had it tough, his dad was in the NBA and he probably had all the resources and facilities he needed to growing up to chase his passion, while his opponents had to experience the roughness of the streets to make it out of the hood

>condoning shortcuts

There is no story to his success, no struggle, no passion, no nothing. Just a privileged kid whose dad was in the NBA and peaking 5 years into his career and now he's supposedly "the GOAT"

Don't make me laugh
>>
>>66784279

He's mad because some the "street" black star athletes went to a school in the first world suburbs, got a bunch of special privileges, then a full ride to a top tier university where they got free everything and got to live like it was a resort 4 year vacation. Then they got some tats and drafted by the NFL. Those are the "real niggas" that "made it out the hood".
>>
He's not a fraud, he's just a player who blossomed later in his career.

The frauds are the people who consider him to be among the all time greats.

Fun Fact: all time greats were all good from the first or second year, without exception. Curry was a literal who for his first FIVE years. That means he is not an all time great, and people should just shut up about it.

Haters everywhere

I would say half of professional athletes are 'privileged' and wouldn't be professional athletes if the resources weren't available to them when they were younger
>>
You faggots don't get it. Sports is a working class thing, you have to juggle lots of hardships to make it.

Little Stephen here probably had a court yard in his garden practicing 3s all day while the family chef was cooking his clean meal. That's a luxury many people don't have, and I think it made it easier for him to get where he is today.

While other people had to give up sports, to live real life and have jobs so they could get by, this faggot just needed to focus on basketball and make it his priority day in, day out.

>Sports is a working class thing

It is, but only to a certain point. Watching sports as a spectator is a clear-cut working class thing, but if you get scouted at the age of 7-8 by some FA scout, you pretty much leap from 'working class' to 'privileged' just because you have access to a good training facility and proper coaching

Even if a kid isn't privileged at home, if he's scouted he is privileged in terms of his athletic development, so the playing field pretty much evens out

Being the son of an NBA star makes it pretty easy to succeed if you want to follow in your dad's footsteps.

If growing up wealthy and having access to stellar coaching was all that it took to play in the NBA the league would be 90% white so privilege isn't everything.

I'm happy that Curry succeeded through living the Caucasian lifestyle because it stops the "we wuz" people from trying to claim cultural superiority.

GREAT WHITE HOPE

>>66784590

I always loved this attitude, because only working class people think this way. I had every possible advantage in my sport of choice; wealthy parents, good genetics, a wealthy high school with a good tradition in my sport of choice and a great coach with a consistent program and lots of resources. Good facilities, the best gear money could buy, healthy home cooked meals, expensive supplements, private coaching in the offseason, you get the picture.

In my sport, you compete with people head to head. A lot of the working class guys I competed with and against always embraced that identity; scruffy beards, long hair, no frills. On competition day, I would treat it like a business meeting; haircut the day before, fresh shave that morning, I even wore cologne to compete. And nothing was more fun than being the rich, clean shaven, pretty boy douchebag who put those working class boys in their place.

I feel like Lebron is 4chan and Kobe is reddit. Kobe is kind of annoying and whiny while Lebron is just an all round bad ass. Has anyone else noticed the similarities between Kobe and reddit/Lebron and 4chan?

I don't think you understand how pampered basketball "prospects" are in America.From the ages of 13 up to draft day even a player that turns out to be an invisible average player in the NBA is taken across the country and world to camps, clinics, training facilities, televised events, scouting events, tournaments and go to the best private schools in their area.Seriously, Every star in the NBA was once a teen being lavished in attention and preparation for the big league.You really think Lebron was just like any other high schooler?I bet you even the shittiest bench player in the NBA even went to a shit ton of skills camps sponsored by their Nike, McDonalds and Reebok overlords.This pretty much applies to every professional athlete.Today there is no such thing as a "built from the ground up" player I can find.If you can please tell me but it's just something I've noticed.

Any professional athlete has had his ass kissed his entire life, from the time he was ridiculously better at his sport than every other kid in his county through high school and college. I admire any professional athlete who isn't a spoiled prick despite their upbringing.

m question is why people are acting like steph is literally this entirely new kind of player that we've never seen before? he's scoring in similar ways that kobe did, but does a little more shooting than driving. he's a fantastic scorer, and some of his shots are straight up disrespectful, but we've seen players through each decade now that are able to score no matter what...so why is everyone acting like he's jesus?

jordan>kobe>curry

and this we'll see how long the curry spice will continue

Kobe was raised with basketball in fucking Italy with both his father and uncle playing in the NBA. Now look at him.
>>
>>66793383

i havent seen too many people claiming curry is on the level of jordan or kobe, championships are generally considered the most important thing and curry still has a few championships to go before hes in that conversation

the most wild claim you see is that curry is better than lebron, which isnt that crazy if you're talking about individual seasons or postseasons
>>
>>66793383
Because it's resulting in way, way more wins than in Kobe's case? Are you deliberately being a retard by not knowing the obvious answer?
>>
>>66790995
Not at all. If anything reddit is Curry and 4chan is KG. Additionally, FB would be Kobe, Twitter is LeBron, and the YouTube comment section would be Josh Smith.

What does that have to do with anything being discussed right now? The reason people are acting like Curry is an entirely new phenomenon is because of the sheer amount of wins his play is resulting in.

Huh? If anything, his speech sounds white - not dindu/ghetto as fuck like most blacks.

It's ok, I understand you blacks are very insecure and in denial of the fact the best basketball player on the planet is once again white.

This exactly, I can't really respect a sportsperson unless they grew up in some sort of poverty. Sport isn't about simply the ability and presence of the person in the game, instead it's about the person themselves.

Graduated high school?
Dropped

7th Grade Reading Level?
Dropped

What people don't realise is that true greatness can only be achieved from true suffering.

Fuck rich people.

At least he plays in the west with the rest of the competition though..
Lebeta can't even match those stats, while cruising to the finals each year because he plays in the babby east division.
