Thoughts Zo gif ?

Also think it is worth mentioning that team up happened after Steph’s team beat KD’s team in the playoffs and KD went to them.

Second biggest choke job next to what happened in the finals that same year.

 

[Based Jesus]

I'm not saying Steph is better than KD.....but I'm also not saying KD is better than Steph. Not for the GSW run.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

During the run...it was comical to see the same people hop on KD **** when it was time to hate on Steph...and then hop on Steph **** when it was time to hate on KD.

All from the usual suspects. Disgusting, disgusting behavior.

 

[MVP]

They were pretty even during the regular season, KD was slightly better during the west playoffs during their run, and KD was clearly better in the finals. Don't see where the case is for Steph but again DIFFERENT rules.

 

[don ramon]

kd is a lame ***

 

[trynafeelmink]

Damn near every team in the West could’ve used a guard, all of those GMs knew OKC was a fire-sale candidate & still let Schroeder go to the champs wild to me.

Didn't like the signing at first, dude still has some vital flaws but for the role he's in he's in this was definitely a steal for the Lakers

RE: Curry vs Durant

Eyes say Durant, brain says Curry? But not really firm with either, which was probably the beauty of the partnership.

Happens in here daily with a varying list of players.

KD was better than Steph, but he doesn't win without him or Golden State.
I would have loved to see one more match between that Cavs & Warriors Team, without KD.

It’s really a toss up. In the 2017 run...their numbers over the playoffs were identical. The idea that Steph took a “backseat” to KD is wild. Klay didn’t either. It was perfect basketball harmony...but ppl couldn’t see it.

They were 1a & 1b . Steph had the variance game and always lays a bad shooting night in the finals. When you sweeping teams and having 4 to 5 game sample sizes...it skews the numbers. Ty Lue told y’all who was the “head of the snake”.



And its a point guards duty, to get one of the best scorers ever in position to score at the highest level with the easiest shots. Steph did that. But y’all don’t care.

End of the day, it doesn’t matter. The fact that ppl argue this is absurd. Shouts to the SERVANT SLATT. They were smoking the Cavs in the finals either way. Them game 3 daggers KD hit tho (up 2-0 thanks to Steph brilliance), incredible.

No one's here to argue, especially not with yall.

I think Steph is better than KD and was better than him during the GSW tenure. Long-term things can change but I don't see it happening the way things are going, and I couldn't care less what any of yall think about it. You won't see me get into a nonsense debate about it.

The lack of appreciation would be supported by the fact that people don't acknowledge that he's better than KD but yall got it. Hit me with the laughing emojis and we can be done with it cause I surely didn't make the comment with the intent to argue in circles with yall

This really be the main thing with NT, Questioning where Steph falls in the rankings as one of the greatest of all times...... isn't appreciating him , This is like when people say Lebron doesn't get appreciated enough..... some people have literally been calling him the GOAT since his first title.

Tatum had 40+ & WON the game and i saw maybe one highlight package.... the thread for the next day & a half was Curry adulation & highlights can we please retire this narrative that he somehow isn't appreciated enough

 

[Zo gif]

Better defender and scorer but yall tryna debate.

 

[CDFTDOT]

IMO, Curry is more skilled, but KD is the better player once you factor in height and athleticism

 

[MVP]

On planet Earth there's zero argument for Steph being better than KD all time...ZERO.

 

[trynafeelmink]

Again

Better defender and scorer but yall tryna debate.

On NT Defense & Winning are both overrated things in basketball, dem the rules

 

[rolaholic]

KD ain’t forget. He just doesn’t give a ****.

 

[Based Jesus]

All time of course KD is better
Steph is a late bloomer, he can't make up for lost time

 

[wavycrocket]

One of the greatest scorers of all time joined the team, and the offense still ran through Steph

Literally out of KD’s mouth too



Wish he aint get tricked out his spot. Barbershop mentality with a blog boy skill set.

 

[HIM]

One of the greatest scorers of all time joined the team, and the offense still ran through Steph

That was just KD playing Team Offense

 

[MVP]

All time of course KD is better
Steph is a late bloomer, he can't make up for lost time

Really shouldn't be a debate during the GS run either. They were about even on offense but KD's defensive prowess was light years better.

 

[wavycrocket]

All time of course KD is better
Steph is a late bloomer, he can't make up for lost time

This is a hard concept for some to grasp. Although, if you had them like 12 or 13 all time and swapped either, I ain’t mad. I think those cats are in that 10-15 range. True toss up.

They’ve been the two best players in the nba since the beginning of the 2016 season.

 

[pums]

The warriors dont even run the offense through steph a lot of times now. They still on that equal opportunity BS

 

[B Sox]

The stats on the biggest stage in 2017 and 2018 skew incredibly in KD's favor. I personally feel like that deserves a bit more weight given what happened in 2016, but I understand there could be an argument otherwise.

Perfect pairing though.

 

[MVP]

Was still wild to see that last game in 2018 Finals where they were cheesing Wardell as much as possible in a blowout to get him FMVP and KD just casually ho hummed a triple double and win the award going away still. Peak nastiness by the Dubs organization.

 

[BIG FISH]

“Best player” in the league about to miss the playoffs two years in a row
