Curry is 4th all time in playoff career BPM. Curry's career playoff numbers
26/5/6 on 45/41/89 shooting, 60 TS%, .196 WS/48 and 7.4 BPM
Also LeBron and his janitors?
Kyrie's finals numbers
29/4/4 on 47/42/90 shooting (2017 finals)
27/4/4 on 47/40/94 shooting (2016 finals)
Kyrie was a monster in those finals. I chuckle when I hear the excuses for LeBron.
Here are a comparison to some other NBA FMVP's numbers
Dirk: 26/9/2 on 41/3798 shooting
Kobe: 28/8/4 on 40/32/88 shooting
Pierce: 22/4/6 on 43/89/83
I believe I saw a stat where Kyrie's career PPG in the finals is like 7th or 8th highest of all time. That 2016 finals with those numbers and that shot made in game 7, he wins MVP 9/10 times. He just happened to play with LeBron who played even better.
Anyways back on topic.
Curry in 2017 finals: 27/8/9 on 62 TS%
2018 finals: 27/6/7
And on the night of game 6 in 2015, I thought it was a joke that Iggy got the MVP over Curry. I feel like the further we get from that date, the bigger of a robbery it feels.
On a side note. The LeBron and his janitors comment is the exactly what KD was talking about and I think a huge reason Kyrie wanted out. Cause its not just posters on here that say things like this. Ya you have your Skip's but you have a ton of people in the media who talk just like this. One way they try to praise LeBron is by tearing down his roster, his complete roster including the likes of a guy like Kyrie.
