Lebron dominated the game, Curry changed it. What do you value more?

Curry is the only one in history of NBA.
How close are the Lakers to contention as they age with little draft capital

"If you look to the media to tell you who the best player is then LeBron is your answer."
Why do you care about a media award now? Lebron was one vote short have because of one media member openly admitted to voting with bias.. What if that happened Currys year? And it's a difference of one vote, Is that more impressive thrn having 2 more MVPs?

Curry has dominated the modern era of basketball with one team, didnt hop around from team to team like a chicken and was the reason golden state became a juggernaut...2x uninaminous mvp and broke rays record. If it was lebron on golden state when they struggled for 2 years, lebron would have "took his talents elsewhere ect.." by now... only knock left on curry is that he doesnt have an FMVP yet... he has a magic johnson MVP wcf award but he needs the finals FMVP too...


Um what? How exactly can you make this claim? What metric?

Remember when Lebron missed out unanimous MVP because some **** in New York said he had to root for the home town guy and put Melo 1, Lebron 2?

He would recover his legacy.... unless he plays a hobbled Miami which would give it an asterisk.

Am I doing it right?

Maybe if Curry can go back to 2015 Curry production and have another couple of back to back MVP finally coupling those with Finals MVP, then I'm ready to discuss him being Better than LBJ. But this is not going to happen, let's face it.

He will not make my Top 15.
MJ, KAJ, Russell, LBJ, Wilt, Magic, Bird, Hakeem, Duncan, Shaq

There is no way he's better than any of these players.

Then
KG, Oscar Robertson, Kobe Bryant, K. Malone, Dirk

West, M. Malone, Mikan, J. Erving, D. Robinson, Barkley

He will move past Erving with another title but he needs a lot of longevity to break into my Top 15. The highest he can be is 14th ahead of Karl Malone. He will never make my Top 10 no matter what he do.

2 more titles as the man and he’d be in there no problem.

Lol No. It may put Curry in the top 10, but James is a top 5 lock.

Winning in the West vs. in the East dude.

Please, Curry has had not had particularly difficult playoff runs. 2015 and 2016 OKC was the only elite team they faced in the Western playoffs. In the Durant era it was just the Rockets. You think this years title run is much harder than Lebrons?

This East VS West argument is such a stupid way to prop up Curry


Do those same standards apply to LeBron when looking at his playoff competition? The best teams he faced en route to the Finals during 2015-19 were the Derozan-led Raptors. Maybe the 2015 Hawks who were without Thabo because the NYPD curbstomped his ankle.

2 more titles would give him a total of 3 as the man.

KD was very good when he played for the Steph Currys.

Yes. That was the point of my post. I didn't say Lebron had a particularly hard path. Was just addressing a poster implying curry had it harder with the east VS west argument

KD had arguably some of his best seasons overall as a player in a GSW jersey.
