The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

According to ESPN, Curry is the 23rd greatest player of all time


1.5 seasons of greateness

They said he's 3rd behind Magic and Oscar on PGs list before.... they are complete morons.

I stopped paying attention to them when they started pumping out the CP > Magic articles a few years ago.

Of course you'll go back to loving them when Lebron is named 2nd on the list.

Hang on just seen ESPN have Curry above Wade

These twats have really short memories, like prime Wade didn't drop 30-6-7.5 on 50% with 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks and is arguably the best 2 guard outside of Kobe and MJ in history lol.

Yup list is null and void at this point.

No one takes ESPN serious anymore. They're so biased. They're muppets.

Disrespectful.. Curry's peak is pretty high, but even then it should have to be sustained for longer than this if that's what they were to go by

I would definitely put Paul ahead of Curry, he's been great for a decade ffs

I'd like to know what their criteria is

But yeah sustained level matters, it's why some people actually argue Kareem is the GOAT ( i disagree but there's substance behind it)

Let's see where Curry is in a few years before we crown him, mind you i shouldn't be surprised it's the same ESPN who were trying to compare Lebron to MJ before he even won anything.

What a night for PGs.

Curry and Wall shooting lights out. Westbrook making the record for rebounds by a PG while getting the 3rd fastest triple double ever.

Wall needs to get the *bleep* out of DC, those scrubs are not on his level and kept pulling him down.

In other news:

Sources: Zach Lavine, Andre Drummond, Will Barton and Aaron Gordon to participate in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest

Drummond might have too much bulk at this point to show out but we'll see.

he was about 260 here

They are not star guys except for maybe Drummond but all of them are really good IMO. Barton has done some really nice dunks this year and Lavine/Gordon are both freaks from an athletic point of view.

Curry shits on every version of Chris Paul.

At his best maybe, ignoring a guy who regularly sits around 20 and 10 for a decade is plain wrong though.

Curry has been amazing this season, but years of production matters.

It's the same as when Lebron came in the league and everyone acted like he was the best player before he even had a chip to his name ffs.

Let him prove it over many years before we started crowning him for shit first.

Of course at his best. What else are we talking about?

Whenever I talk about greats I'm talking prime to prime. I don't call 2003 Wizards MJ the *bleep* Goat.

Curry shitting on 2008 CP3 then

Current Curry is the arguably GOAT offensive player, only MJ, Shaq and Wilt come in the argument. Yes prime Curry shits on prime CP.

Take this L.

wat.

I just don't like how Curry performs at a ridiculous level for 6 months ( as lets be honest as good as he was last year this wouldn't even be a conversation before the season started) and now he's percieved better than a bunch of players of with much better careers from a consistency and accolade point of view.

This is all started because ESPN has him 23rd all time atm, you trying to tell me if Curry got hit by a truck tomorrow his career is 23rd all time? like the *bleep* it is. I just don't like people crowning him and putting him above what he is already.

Let's not act like this season is only 6 months. He's GOING TO KEEP THIS LEVEL THE WHOLE SEASON.

The only thing in question here is if he'll lead his team to the goat record while doing it and if he'll win a chip. He's not in some hot form. His level won't just disappear. It's not a month of great form. THIS IS HOW GOOD HE IS.

So his peak is already going to be better than a lot.

If ESPN is ranking primes, then @23 Curry is waaaaaaay too low.

No you are just underestimating how many great seasons there has been.

Tiny Archibald dropped 30 and 11 from the PG position, but no *bleep* is talking about that.

Also you are assuming, you don't know what is going to happen. Like i said your are stating things based on what you think is going to happen you don't know it.

Let him actually do all this shit first before we actually crown him, as i said it's the same as Lebron being compared to MJ before he even got a championship ffs. Y'all love jumping the gun ahead of time and crowning people above a level because you expect them to be there one day.

James, no

yes

True GOATs dominate in any setting. Where was Curry for the first 6 seasons of his career? Paul has been great in multiple settings.

Curry is a great player but he's striving because of the system. He was nothing more than a squad player on team USA like 2 years ago (right before his breakout season) lead by Kyrie .

You can put players like LeBron and KD on any team and they would dominate, I can't say the same for Curry.

All star game in Canada seems kinda like a iffy idea. 1 week out, and there are still court side seats available for like 3 grand, while last year in New York they were well sold out at this point. I would be all over that if my girlfriend wasn't graduating from university next month.

ESPN's top 10 will consist of: The Chosen One, Jordan, Duncan, Kareem, Shaq, Russell, Wilt, Magic, Bird and Hakeem..

C's rule again

I'll try to guess their order:
1. Jordan
2. Magic
3. Kareem
4. Wilt
5. Russell
6. LeBron
7. Duncan
8. Bird
9. Shaq
10. Hakeem
