This is OBVIOUSLY Steph's era- not Lebron's.

4 rings with the SAME franchise in 7 years.

Won rings with different sets of roles players whom he all made look better. Basically everyone 'fit in'.

Wiggins, who Lebron had traded away to get Kevin Love, FLOURISHED alongside a guy that beat Lebron 3x in the finals in Curry.

Literally has made EVERY TEAMMATE better by merely just his presence on the floor. From superstars like KD, to players like McGee/Nick Young/Draymond/Zaza Pachulia, to players to Poole & Gary Payton Jr. Unlike Bron, he really makes teammates better and fundamental pieces to the team regardless of the level they're at.

And most of all - NO EXCUSES. This team had major injuries earlier in the season and mid season, but weathered the storm. Him, nor his teammates, aren't in ENDLESS trade rumors during those losing slumps unlike every team Lebron is on. Truly fosters a positive work environment.

The Steph Era. Happy to be a part of it.

Yeah I would much rather build a contender with Curry then LeBron drama for sure.

This really depends on how you cut off the eras, but I obviously don't have a problem with dedicating a very lengthy period of time to Curry and this GSW core. Both very impressive and impactful to how the game is played now.

Only if you think that Curry is a top 5 players ever

Anyone remember that Billions scene where Axelrod says "Yeah... I'm more Steph Curry than Lebron" or something to that effect?

Curry literally started winning 3 years after Lebron won his 1st. Bizarre when you think about it. And considering how much effort Lebron has put in team hopping and colluding during this time frame, it makes Curry's journey look more natural and organic.

you dont have to do this. you dont think steph is a better player, and he objectively doesnt have the accomplishments. Why not just be happy for the great performance?

I always say couple more titles and Curry is the Russell to
Lebrons Wilt. It is called the 3ball era and Curry is the face of it.

Curry is probably the biggest reason why Lebron won’t ever be considered the GOAT

That's a cool graphic, but it seems like Curry is able to, you know, WIN at a faster clip.

If the goal is to win, it just seems like the gap of accomplishments are null.

It is possible to congratulate a player without lowering another player, especially when this player has nothing to do with this year

I don't understand your comparison

LeBron has 2 more titles than Wilt and Curry is 7 titles behind Russell

I don't understand. What am I 'doing'??

Curry's journey to winning has been one of the most impressive I've seen. Truly a story of resilience.

Chronic Ankle pain stemming from a crap ton of Injuries

Curry proving that he's a better long term fit than Mont Ellis.

Growing with Klay and Draymond.

Surviving the embarrassment from 2016 to overcoming injuries to teammates.

All with ONE franchise who believed in him and vice versa.

His 4 rings look and feel different than Lebron's.

Where was this Curry is better than Lebron as Klay was healing and the warriors were in the lottery?

It's impossible to 'lower' Lebron. He's Lebron. But it's possible to talk objectively about an era. Curry has beat the guy 3x. His 4th time winning is alongside a guy that Lebron didn't think was worthy playing with.

Curry literally turning trash into treasure with Lebron's scraps. Just things to think about.

It hasn’t been the “Lebron era” in some years now

If you think that Bill Russell is the best player ever I have no problem with your reasoning

But if you want to use the 1960s context, you need to use the same one as the warriors were a much better drafting team than the cavs from 2003 to 2010 and the warriors are the only team that have no problem paying a monster luxury tax year after year
to keep their team together

Wilt is defined by his stats and is the dominant force who played for multiple teams.

Russell is defined by championships with more stars playing for 1 team.

Even if Bronny will be good enough to play in the NBA I am not survhow good LeBron will be when Bronny is a rookie.
Even LeBron can’t hold off father time forever.
