Another Star getting a PASS

Well…Curry is playing badly but hes not alone. I think other teams can figure them out pretty easy in a series. They’re a regular season nightmare cos their style is so unorthodox. And theyve never had to play a good team in the playoffs.

To be honest there was something fishy about that 73 win season. By the end the Dubs looked off, and I saw some officiating that gifted them the wins they needed down the stretch. 

Curry is the regular season MVP but not the Finals MVP.

 Is he really getting a pass? I’ve heard plenty of criticism from the media directed his way and it is not undeserved. While you have to give credit to okc for the defense they have played against him so far, they are not really doing anything different than what curry has seen all season. He is still getting the type of looks he usually gets but, for whatever reason, he is not knocking them down. I think he needs to really look to attack the paint more, particularly when he gets a big switched on him, rather than settling for contested step back 3s which are just not falling right now. He has been way too nonchalant at times in this series with his passing and it has led to bad turnovers. He has also been too quick to gamble for steals and it has put him and his teammates  out of position defensively. I know that’s just kind of way he plays and you have to take the good with the bad but it’s not working for him right now and it’s hurting the team.

 Golden state’s problems in this series go much deeper than curry (green has been awful and bogut looks old and overmatched) but as an mvp you have to shoulder the blame and take responsibility when things don’t go well just as you would get the credit when they do. If golden state does lose this series don’t worry. Steph will definitely be hearing his fair share of criticism and it will last for awhile.

Curry has been playing bad vs OKC, it’s called…….oh being human! Credit OKC, Curry’s ankle/knee, tired, not their year! So Spaceghost, whenever you get done sucking LeBron’s dick! Please come up for some air, clean yourself off and keep in mind that Curry is human and…..still the 2016 NBA MVP!

 Way to take a 4 game sample and use to make an ignorant and absolute statement. Yes, Curry has been playing below his standards, but so has his entire team. OKC and how well they are playing has a lot to do with it. Players go through peaks and valleys, this just happens to be the worst time for them to be playing below their standards epescially when OKC is playing as well as they can. Curry has to play near his best for GS to come back in this series. Durant and Westbrook have clearly outplayed him and are two best players this series.

The better player doesn’t always play better, this isn’t determined on paper. Give credit to Westbrook and the entire OKC team playing at their apex, but quit trying to act like what Curry has done is a fluke. One bad or great series doesn’t define any player, but I guess we’re just going to be prisoners of the moment and only remember what just happend.

Also Westbrook isn’t even the best player on his own team, and he should’ve won MVP last year? You mean leading OKC to missing the playoffs, sure ok.

Also, LeBron has just lost 2 straight to the out-of-their-league Raptors, so yea just chill.

 It was just a few weeks ago after game 1 of Thunder-Spurs that there was a thread asking why Kevin Durant gets a pass. It argued that we haven’t leveled the same amount of criticism against KD that we have against Lebron when he was ring-less. How things have changed.

 Who gave kd a pass,  I didn’t when a player has a bad game I say they had a bad game it’s just easier for some guys to do more little things for their team to the result of winning than others.

See also kd got the thunder past the spurs so in the end he redeemed his bad moments, and look at him again the warriors, so at the end of the day I could give 2 fs about negs.  I’m telling the truth and I’m standing firm to it like a tree rooted in the ground.

If jordan, or kobe, or shaq, or hakeem, or magic, only played o e side of the ball would they be considered  some of the best ever no, but because  . Today’s game, more gas then ever play horible defense or no defense at all, guys run to get back on defense for lack of being able to play transition defense so more than ever offensive rebounds get missed out on, truth be told most of you are idiots.

Curry is still injured…no way he’s 100 percent right now. That being said, OKC is torching these guys!

 I don’t know you can sign that from Lebron when he has done his typical disappear move in the last two games.  So over rated in my opinion.  Great individual talent but he’s so mentally weak.  Classic case of good guy when things are good, but the second he has some adversity he folds into his shell.

Nobody can defend Russ and shut him down. Dude is relentless. He’s just too much. Not Kawhi. Not Iggy. Not PG. Not LBJ. So definitely not Steph. 

I actually thought Steph was solid against him at times and then Russ would get bailed out by a foul call. But you can just see that defending Russ is exhausting Steph. Idk if Steph is listening to the critics saying he doesn’t defend his own position or what, but it’s just unrealistic to expect him to defend Russ AND score 30.

Idk if it’s the ankle or the knee or what, BUT… This isn’t the unanimous MVP Steph we’re seeing right now. He looks like a shell of that guy. Now, he just looks like a basic player. He looks slow. Less agile. Lacking burst. Almost dead legged. 

Give credit to OKC. Even IF Steph was 100%, this series would be a tossup. I’m excited for KD/Russ to get a ring. There’s no doubt they’ll beat CLE or TOR IMO.

The officitaing favors OKC. Not saying that the refs are doing this on purpose, just saying that playoff basketball is about being physical and they are the more physical team. Theyre getting the rebounds, theyre getting the foul calls and theyre playing well overall. 

One thing I am not seeing this series between Draymond and Curry is their pick and roll, and Curry overall is being lackadaisical with the ball with his weak passes. Hes just coasting and sort of losing interest when he sees that his shot is not falling. He even missed a bunch of layups in game 4 that he usually hits. 

People are quick to dismiss Curry and the Warrior’s regular season because theyre struggling against a team that beat the Spurs last series. Those people are for the most part LeBron fans that wanna see Curry fail because they think that Cleveland would have an easier time in the Finals against OKC.

 lmao people always point to steph like he gets a pass – that’s because he’s been nearly flawless for two years now. the sensitivity to the Warriors is crazy to me

hes playing like trash this series. no one is giving him a pass, injury or not. he can play, clearly, so at this point it’s no excuse to be as bad as he has been. gotta just step up and perform.

 woah i didnt kno lebron had an account on this site

 woah i didnt kno lebron had an account on this site

 there is a lot of anectotal information here and previously about the Warriors.  a lot of fan-dueling so you will always here LBJ or RWB being brought up.  these are just my personal opinions and have been the entire year…

to the person that says Steph is better than Russ? how do you quantify that?  I dont believe so.  Steph is a mega star.  greatest shooter of all times.  very likakable guy.  a lot of ways the antithesis of RWB.  so you gotta take that into consideration in terms of hype.  RWB isnt mentioned as the best PG in the league, much less best player.  why not?  and to the person that says RWB isnt the best player on his team, I argue that.  how many games will OKC win with out KD?  how many without RWB?  its all up for debate.  there is not right or wrong here but I feel RWB is one of the most overshadowed atheletes I have ever seen besides maybe Scottie Pippen off top.  he did things this season statistically that you have to go back to Oscar Roberson days.  or maybe prime Fat Lever on steroids is a better example.  but he is winning.  and he is a FIERCE competitor.

even still, oh he is not the best player on his team.  he cant help that he has a league MVP on his team.  but Steph is a great player no doubt…but the Warriors have a great team around him.   I would definitely say he was not finals MVP last year even though he was best player.  without IGGY guarding Lebron and hitting those big shots, no way they come out that series with a W.  and LBJ put on a legendary performance but he just was out-gunned.  

not going to sit here and throw dirt on their 73 wins.  no way.  but Doc did say they were "lucky" last year.  Luck isnt the best word to use, but playoffs sometimes comes down to match ups.  the West is tough…and the right draw is crucial.  the Spurs are prime examples.  if they get to the finals, its usually just about ballgame right there, but sometimes they go out early too.  OKC has had that fire to me this year and looking like they are the team to beat.  

I dont see this being a fluke in anyway or that the Warriors are choking.  They are just running into a pretty strong team and whether you say he is getting a pass or not, Steph isnt and never was the clear best player on the planet.  Thats a matter of opinion and I believe LBJ, KD, and even RWB have some valid claim.  We shall see.

 Remember when Steph came back and scored like 50 against the Blazers a couple weeks ago? 

Or the Steph that led the Warriors to a title just last season? 

I guess I don’t know why anyone should feel the need to defend him, or rip him. He’s a great player. He’s losing this fight to Westbrook, who is a better player.
