**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[ThePeoplesChamp_]

I need to see Steph play against an elite team. As far as I’m concerned, the Warriors haven’t played anyone thus far in the playoffs. The Houston Rockets aren’t the same team they were last year, and the basketball IQ of that team isn’t great. It really tells you how bad the West has gotten if Portland made it to the WCF. The best team Steph faced in his career was the 2016 Cavs and he struggled that series and they lost.

Assists is THE defining stat of a point guard though.

Steph is an undersized shooting guard

Russ and John Wall must be your best Pgs in the game then. You must love you some Rondo.

Me, I prefer a PG who creates for his teammates and makes them better. Steph does that in about 5 different ways not including being a good passer himself.

That’s the definition of a point guard. Not a “rack up assist guard”.

So what’s NT’s consensus ?
Kawhi or Giannis?

Kawhi not getting rattled by the Canadian/Jamaican/Caribbean Spike Lee

Making plays >>> assists

Add that to the list HIM

 

[Based Jesus]

It's 2019, assists no longer need to come from a single source. No one on the warriors averages double digit assists and their offense is better for it.

You are a piece of work

 

[QU!K]

What metrics y’all using to say Steph > Magic then?

Shooting?

Cause it ain’t assists and it ain’t trophies

You see this trash, @lil fish


Say Steph doesn’t get slandered.

Steph isn't the best player in the league
Steph isn't better than Magic (and honestly there's no way for him to catch Magic imo)
Steph isn't going to catch Kobe (no way for him to do that either)
Steph isn't the best player on his own team
Steph isn't the best player of this era

That's not slander those are just facts as of right now.

Your “facts” are highly biased. You are a delusional Lakers fan boy.

Day four of our continuous Steph Curry debate. Setting up for the tears come June

 

[addict4sneakers]

Why do y’all knock Steph for allegedly not being the best player on his team when Magic wasn’t either?

Ok, ok. I can get down with this new topic. Or Kobe for that matter.

 

[wavycrocket]

I wouldn't say he's best leader in the game. Dray a better leader on that team than him.

Dray himself would tell you about Steph’s leadership

And Dray on Steph making the game easy for him, and being unselfish in his Unanimous MVP season



Literally from the horses mouth . It’s why these guys will continue to win. They get it, and are fully aware of who they are...and how they play for each other. Not dated hero ball ****.

 

[drewsone]

Magic
2 more rings
3 more finals MVP
1 more MVP
4x assist leader
6 more all star
7 more 1st all-nba
1 more steals leader

But from 85 on, Magic was the best player on the Lakers.

Big Steph thread

 

[hand2handking]

none of this who's better than who **** matters as long as they keep winning

and who needs to win by themself etc etc

decide all that when dudes are done

i think what has ppl sick is they forming a dynasty unlike we ever seen

dominance brings haters

that's the thing though

it will ALWAYS matter

mj, bron, kobe, kareem, kd, steph, magic, etc
the all-time greats will always be debated about lol

 

[jc619er]

Of course Steph makes it easier for Dray because Steph is demanding double and triple teams, but Dray is the heart and guts of that team. Period. I ain't seen Dray get locked down by K. Love in crunch time of game 7 when it matters most. Take Dray off that team and they are severely softer.

no i get that but i mean compare players playing to players playing

Steph is the most impactful player of this era. Used to be "Your best player can't be a PG (historically not true)" or "Jump shooting teams don't win chips".
Now look at this ****. Steph birthed all these ******. Sidenote: I'm not arguing Steph is better than Magic. Magic the best PG ever and probably gonna stay there.

And it's mattered in the moment as well. Dudes don't want the same banter for Steph that all the other greats had while they were still playing. It's bizarre.
