Curry going all Buddy Hield on the Blazers right now.

 

LeBron and J4L don't stand a chance. Nor does OKC/SA.

 

 

 

Fathom, I guess your wife must be really tolerant about watching so much sports, haha...

 

My wife always throws a fit when I wake her up because the weekend game times or M/W/TH day games always start between 2-5 a.m. here in China.

 

 

If I ever get married again, I HAVE to find a cool/girl next door sports addict type who looks and acts like Jennifer Lawrence, lol.

Kerr said Steph is starting Wednesday, not sure he earned that...

Huh? No, Curry, the greatest shooter the sport of basketball has ever known, went all Curry on the Blazers. Buddy Hield? haha. Stop. And yes, I've got the Warriors beating Cleveland. But it will be an epically epic series.

Odds are last season is the closest they get.

 

Then again, Love was injured and Irving as hurting.

 

Just think that the level of competition is so much fiercer in the West that it will be really difficult for the Cavaliers to turn it up because all those teams are playing at such a high level that the top four and the Clippers with Paul and Griffin would all sweep the Raptors or Heat.

No. Just so wrong.

Obviously, Curry's the best player in the world right now.

 

But Hield as a collegiate player just had some unreal shooting performances this past season. Not making any sort of argument that Hield will even be an above-average starter in the NBA.

Wow, Steph with the unanimous MVP vote. 1st time in NBA history.

how do you not understand that it is not "Steph is going all Buddy Hield" but rather "Steph is going all Steph"?

 

You dont ever compare Curry down to a college player.

Steph Curry is so ridiculous I'm not even impressed by anything he does anymore. This is not shade. I wake up in the morning and hear Curry hit like 20 three-pointers and they were all from the halfcourt line like "well I mean yeah. Of course he did."

That was the most impressive OT performance in the playoffs I can ever remember an individual player having. Wow.

I know some hate him, but Rosenbloom was hilarious this morning

The fact that he's the first ever unanimous choice is ridiculous. How Jordan and Lebron were never unanimous is crazy.

Good piece. What I'd give to see Forman go.

Those two simply never had a year like Curry has this year. Shaq was robbed by that one idiot in 2000 though.

Michael Jordan never had a year like this. Really.

Nope. At least not offensively. Curry hit 400 3's dude. That alone should make it close to unanimous.

Jordan, at least, never had a year like this relative to everyone else in the league, he was pretty much the same MJ every year doing the same numbers getting the same results. Curry played like the NBA was too easy for him.

I know it is sacrilegious to think it now, but Jordan got a lot of the same selfish flack that LeBron has in his career. He wasn't team oriented enough in some people's opinion early on. Then he got to a stage where he was so good, it was just assumed he was the best, and that the MVP should go to the next best guy.

MJ in 1996 led a record-setting team, put up a PER that was then in the top-15 all-time, had a higher win share than Steph (not that these were things back then), and made first defensive team. I'm not trying to cheapen what Curry has done, but I don't see why his season has justified a unanimous vote where that MJ season didn't. Why defend MJ's voters? They were pretty bad.

My stepdaughter watches a lot of Full House reruns for some reason, she was watching one where Stepanie was trying to get some boy to like her and pretended to like sports, and said "if Michael Jordan ever got some help, Chicago would be unstoppable." That episode was from about 1989 I think, lol.

Not really defending MJ's voters, just seems like the common reaction everywhere has been to imply Curry doesn't deserve to get unanimous MVP because Jordan never did, and that strikes me as dumb 1980s BBWAA HOF voting logic.

The MLB HoF is a similar case, and I agree with your sentiment. If a guy is the clear best choice, then I don't care if nobody was unanimous before, vote for him. But Y2J specifically expressed his disbelief over MJ or LeBron never earning the honor themselves, and I agree with that sentiment as well.

MJ had to deal with MJ fatigue from voters. Curry's season was amazing and that OT last night seals it. That it's the first unanimous MVP vote ever means very little to me. There are always a lot of stupid writers that don't take their job seriously.

I don't like the logic that because something stupid was done 100 years ago, no one else deserves better now. I just want to make the point that MJ really should have been a unanimous MVP, but because of stupid externalizes never was. He isn't the only one either. My personal favorite is Wilt Chamberlin averaging 50 points and 25 rebounds a game for an entire season, and not winning MVP.
