Bro, you're triggered from the Laker loss. Time to log off, we're talking a regular season award, no better than LeBron's fart in the wind in season tournament stuff. Just stop and appreciate the little things instead of hating.

These little in season awards are just a bit of fun. If you want to show a player some love, say something nice and move on. If not, no need to flip out and think we're talking about something serious.

Steph had some nice 'clutch' stats however the NBA chose to define them, appreciate them and move along.

Come on, man... my posts in here were so lighthearted :lol: you just took them really to heart. That's not even on me, that's on you.

This was literally my second post in here -

What a "freak out". I'll take into account sensativity of others next time. Some may have lower tolerance than others

You're right, Steph never made a clutch shot in his life,

So long as you exclude:

1. Game tying shots
2. Lead extending shots
3. Lead cutting shots
4. Shots between 5min and 1min
5. Shots between 1min and 45sec
6. Free throws

What are we doing here :lol:

You're simply misunderstanding. I never said this. Not even once :lol: literally 0. About 12 posts in this thread and I have said it 0 times. You could say 0-12

Hear me out! I refuse to get upset about a meaningless award. Congratulations to Mr. Curry.

Went and checked the game thread, here is the first post I saw, then later I saw a 1 line DLO complaint. This seems to me like you're in a hyper-defensive mode. :wink:

KyRo23 wrote:This is all good if you know 0 context to any of the situations.

Spurs didn't "own" LeBron. One of the greatest franchises in NBA history is 2-1 vs LeBron in the finals, one being against a 22 year old with a team that was not comparable.

Warriors as a comparable franchise/team is actually 1-2 against LeBron in the playoffs.

The Nuggets are 2-1 against LeBron in the playoffs. Again with context, a 39 year old LeBron.

If we aren't going to hold young MJ accountable for losing 13 straight against Boston, why is it not the same here?

If he did a presser after that JR Smith blunder, he will always do one :lol: and walk out with his man purse after

He will do one tonight, and I don't think it'll be too short


I am very lighthearted tonight. You picked the wrong time brother. You could even say I'm especially impish and whimsical tonight

You tried this same shtick last year. I'm not sure if it's your thing or you're simply projecting your feels onto me about your teams current situation, but it's kind of old. Maybe next year

This is good and all, but how many in the playoffs?


This is exactly what you said

I counted around 70, kinda lost count, but that's only up to 2019


You wasted time counting. There are 0 game winners

Stephen Curry is now 0-12 in his playoff career on potential go-ahead shots in the final 45 seconds of the 4th quarter or overtime.

I love the "gotcha" moment requoting me. I know what I said. I said game winners. Still 0


He hit a game winner with 51 seconds left so this cherry picked stat is just one forged by people to downplay him. He's also had one of the most game-tying shots in the final minute in the playoffs including multiple in the final 10 seconds (he misses, they lose. More weight than go-ahead shots.). Has the most game tying shots in the final 24 seconds of the finals which is the most since Michael Jordan. In 2018, he got an and-1 in 2018 with 15 seconds remaining and hit the go-ahead FT which don't count as a shot.

And idk why you're just downright excluding clutch shots with 5-6 minutes left when the nba.com definition of clutch time is when the game is within 6 points in the final 5 mins of Q4 or OT. Don't argue with me, this is the official textbook definition of clutch. While I agree Steph is definitely sub-par in the playoffs in terms of go ahead shots, he is still an extremely clutch player in the playoffs. Granted, not as clutch as people like LeBron or MJ, but he's still a clutch player.

Also weird you're throwing away 10 game winners away simply because it's the RS as if they have no value. But again, cherrypicking to downplay Steph isn't new in this forum
