We’ve got a new argument undercutting and diminishing Steph by someone literally paid to analyze and write about the sport. You just can’t help but laugh at this point at the knots they twist themselves into. 😂

    Just crazy to think they the league still tryna catch up. He’s still the best shooter. Imagine how long it wouldve taken for the game to be like this if a shooter like him never entered the league.

  2. heliocentrist510

    Guys dunking the ball and defying gravity was happening with or without MJ. He’s just the face.

    Does he realize how stupid this sounds 

  3. asBad_asItGets

    All I saw was a wall of text and a stupid take. Anyone with half a brain about basketball can tell Curry changed the game.

  4. comalicious

    I’ve seen better takes at the bottom of my toilet, Jesus Christ. You know it’s a bad take when it pisses you off lmao

    I don’t see it as diminishing because it is true in a way, but Curry accelerating it, shows the level of influence. So what if he isn’t the most influential ever, as long as he is acknowledged as an agent of change and his presence changed the sport… it’s subjective who had the “greatest level” of influence.

    Dudes, pfp looks like he couldn’t even run across a basketball court, what does he know?

  7. I’m as open to objective critique of the Warriors as probably any fan.

    This is dumb.

  8. purplebrown_updown

    It wasn’t going to happen. Curry was the proof of concept and now every team is trying to copy.

    “The 3-Point revolution was happening with or without Curry. He’s just the face”

    Because he began the revolution LMAO wtf is this guy on ??????

  10. This is one person opinion,
    Why post this and give him what he wants? He’s wrong

  11. Sam Quinn looks like he had one too many 🍩!

    Does he even know how to shoot a basketball? Reminds me of the awkward kid in gym class that always finishes last. Poor guy…

    Trauma does that to a person.

  12. Some pathetic fat fuck taking about sports in general is hilarious, this dudes greatest accomplishment was walking to his refrigerator to get another pint of ice cream

  13. captaincloudyy

    This guy has probably never even touched a basketball in his life. What a goober.

    Some people just shouldn’t tweet or open their mouth.

  15. Ridiculous. Curry singlehandedly changed basketball strategy. Until Curry, the 3-point revolution was much more about encouraging role players to shoot 35% 3s instead of 38% midrangers. And without Curry it would’ve continued that way for a long while. Trending upward but no NBA fan would be in awe of PJ Tucker suddenly shooting 4 3s a game instead of 1. Whoopee.

    Curry showed in *thrilling* fashion that with the right skill, agility, and footwork, what were thought of as inexcusably difficult 20% 3-point-attempts could be 40% 3-point attempts and that stars could spam them en masse. James Harden (volume) and Dame Lillard (percentage) are the only primary ballhandlers who have come close to Steph did, but neither match in volume and percentage. And both took a few years after Steph’s landmark 2015 and 2016 seasons to start doing that.

    Since it’s been 10 years and no one’s matched Steph’s volume and efficiency (and of any active player only Luka seems like he even has a smidgen of a chance), it’s fair to say that Steph pushed the sport at least 15 years into the future, singlehandedly.

    I know this first hand because even though I now live in the Bay Area, I grew up in New Mexico as a Spurs fan. In that 2013 playoff series watching Steph (and Klay) genuinely felt like alien basketball. Steph was shooting shots that did not make sense in the entire history of basketball… and they were going in, over and over again. I felt like my brain was breaking.

    All evidence, statistically and aesthetically, shows Steph broke the game and *definitely* drove it’s evolution. Ridiculous and naïve of basketball history to think otherwise.

  17. The worst part of posting this type of stuff is giving guys like this publicity.

  18. Yeah it’s weird how they say something is coming, but ignoring the person who drove it. I can kind of see his point with Kobe but Steph was the reason.

    By his logic, well Kobe was coming eventually so MJ isn’t really that great. What a twat.

  19. System_Lower

    Steph Changes caused-
    Strategy.
    Valued player attributes.
    Defense schemes.
    Rotations and lineups.
    It’s pretty much every level of the game from players to front office.

    Lebron changes caused-
    Super team building culture.
    Narrative whoring.

  20. This guy desperately needs a different profession.

  21. Spaghettiisgoddog

    This chubby baby is going perfectly qualified to set the narrative for Steph Curry’s legacy. Leave him alone!!!!! 😂 

  22. Zero0Mystery

    The first statement is just one of the wildest statements ever written on the game of basketball.

    His fans hate to hear it? 🤣 bruh

    He forgot to mention Steph copied this hooper named Dell too.

  23. And yet Steph’s been doing it for 15 years since 2009. And there is no one else like him, nor anyone else looking like him coming up.
    The avg NBA draft age is around 19-20. That means players meaning these current players literally grew up watching him, yet can’t be him. You could say the last 7-8 years players “grew up” watching Steph and can’t compare.

    Also, Sam Quinn looks like he shoots a layup under the basket with both hands, and a leg kick.

  24. Zero0Mystery

    I’ve never seen a MJ jump over a moving car.

    Jimmer Fredette didn’t create Trae Young

  25. TheRealAARON831

    Lol trash takes that Kobe slander is old , but to say the games best shooter had no affect on the game is wild

  26. bucketjunky

    Who tf is Sam Quinn? Triple chin mfer has never spent a second in the gym let alone q court. Can’t even lift a basketball above his head
