When else was it "stacked" ?

I agree. Just didn't think that argument would fly with this guy so I kept it simple lol

Imagine Klay Thompson as your 2nd best scorer and considering that team stacked. People are complaining about Jamal Murray as a 2nd option yet he's been offensively better than Klay in the playoffs. Yea Steph's teams are stacked. When Steph has a legit 2nd option like KD no one stood a chance. When Lebron has a legit 2nd option like Wade, Kyrie, and AD everyone else still beat him.


LeBron had a healthy Kyrie for two years and he went 1-1 (the 1 loss comes against the most stacked team ever).

AD has been healthy for two playoff runs with LeBron - they won the ring in 2020 and now are in a good position in the 2nd round.

The only time LeBron had a healthy 2nd option and he lost was in 2011 (outside of 2017). I love how Warriors fans talk about Curry beating Lebron and aggregate 2018 in there. Like 2018 Finals might have been the most lopsided ever in terms of talent, but yeah hurr durr Curry>>>>LeBron.

Curry has never been better or close to LeBron as a player. It is what it is.

Bron fans never could come up with reasons though, that's why they resort to muzzling people who point out the obvious. You should know shouldn't you?

Not sure what you are referring to but just FYI....mods can see your entire profile. Yeah, it's not your aggressive and abrasive posting style, it's me picking on you and I also bribed 9 other mods to give you warnings/negative feedback. :lol:

I'm surprised you stepped out of your moderated LeBron forum from which you've probably caused far more posters to quit the forums with your "moderation" than to actually solve problems. My comments and the correctness of them are an open book. It's why that forum of yours that I no longer post in cannot carry on a decent Curry conversation which all takes place here.

Case in point with your aggressive and abrasive posting :wink:

Just so you know all boards bans are decided collectively by the mod team and not one single mod. You posting and attacking me like this only validates the ban that you earned. Lastly, during these playoffs I have mostly posted on the GB board but didn't know you were so interested in where I post.

Yes and refs do an upstanding job of calling fouls fairly. The ban on that nonsensical forum that I earned by being correct? That's the place people want to go for fakery. That you are abandoning that forum you have helped to create and appearing here now instead of staying there should give a hint of how bereft of reality that forum is. But you say you are being attacked. White is black and up is down. Happens often when it comes to LeBron fans.

I enjoy that place because posters are held to a standard and have to back up their view with a reasonable argument and statistics, or else you will get called out. You can't just post some BS with a weak argument and expect it to fly.

This is pretty unhinged. You haven't talked any hoops with me, you are obviously still unhappy and emotional about your ban.

Won't be replying to you after this and try not to derail this thread any further.

Not sure why he cares about the PC board if it's so fake and not worthy of posting. Never seen this kind of forum policing before :lol:

You had the option of giving a counter as to why Curry is or was better than Lebron.

Instead you opt to randomly bring up something from another board?

Every mod on the GB is just like a user. No special privileges. But they shouldn't have to be targeted either because there's a mod tag under the username.

Appreciate you can still post on the GB. Instead of resenting whatever happened elsewhere ages ago.

1) Either talk hoops or don't post at all. Your pattern of targeting and attacking other posters for differing opinions is unhinged.
2) Your transgressions against LeBron fans ironically apply to you when it comes to Curry.
3) Bringing beef here from other forums is unnecessary.

Check your attitude and emotions, man. You tend to go nuclear when it comes to defending Steph...relax a bit...

"Jun 17, 2022" - just want to remind everyone when this thread is created.

Lesson 1: bump threads is okay but keep context in mind. This thread was created right after Curry won his 4th as one of the many hot takes, Curry vs MJ, Curry vs LBJ, Curry top 10, Curry is the new Jesus, Curry's fart smells good.

Lesson 2: don't create stupid kneejerk threads after a high to try to look good, because it often comes with eating crow later on.

so you agree Lebron has been beat with a healthy and stacked roster.

This was always one of the most ridiculous takes of All Time.

Steph's "era" is a collective of Klay Thompson (arguable Top 5 GOAT Shooter) Draymond (Top 15-20 Defender of All Time) KD (nuff said) Iggy (one of the most versatile players in the League at his prime) and HOF Coach Steve Kerr.

Vs Lebron who had Kyrie (Arguable GOAT Handles) Kevin Love (GOAT outlet passer) Anthony Davis (GOAT Inconsistent Injured Player) and Frank "punchable face" Vogel and Darvin Ham Head lineup as his coaches.

So yeah when the arguable GOAT Shooter has that on his side then yeah you could say it's "his era". Lol atrocious take.
