And Isaiah played in the Physical NBA where hand checking was allowed and people were allowed to beat up on each other. ESPN just has short term memory to pump up current players..

Pistons put an azz-whuppin on the Warriors last night. First loss for the Warriors when they were at full health as well.

Steph had ankle problems that forced him to sit out most of his 3rd season and had to play second fiddle to Monte Ellis for a few years. Regardless, I'd take the current version of Steph Curry over any version of Zeke.

Obviously, nobody here has actually witnessed Zeke play for an entire game before. They just look at Shooting Percentage stats over a player who can out-assist, out-dribble, out-defense and straight out-lead. :crazy:

That's crazy, you must not have seen him play then. In his prime Thomas was an amazing talent who elevated the play of everyone around him.

Crappy GM, but great player.

I've seen Zeke play (yes, full games) but didn't follow his career. Steph Curry is having one of the most amazing seasons in NBA history. What I'm saying is not crazy. He's already a 1 time (soon to be 2 time) MVP. Career wise Zeke is ahead for now, but I'm taking this seasons Curry over him.

If it came down to one on one in a team game where their complimentary players were identical, Zeke would destroy curry. Because, Zeke would do all the things Curry can't do outside of just plain old shooting the ball. That would involve playing defense, leading, passing the ball and making those around him better.

I think curry is currently the best player in the nba, but let's not forget the team he has around him. Isiah had a good team but he willed his team to winning. On the warriors that's draymond green.

How strange is it that JJ Redick now has a full arm sleeve tattoo out of nowhere?

Holy crap!? Is that a real Woj bomb?

EDIT- Yep just confirmed it myself. Holy ****. I'm sure Lebron had a hand in this move... :lol:

King James gets what King James wants. Him and Lue are tight.

Explains why they would pull off such a classless move.

This puts Lebron's image in a negative light, again...

It's weird how he doesn't understand that, or maybe he doesn't care...

MJ was a straight up assh*le on the court, but even he didn't have this much of an overinflated ego imo...

Weird day for basketball news. JSmoove going back the Rockets, Blatt randomly fired.
