Did somebody seriously just say LeBron lacks ability and hasn't developed his game in 10+ years?

And to the second part, like I said, I know steph is an elite offensive player and most dangerous in the game. No need to explain that to me. I don't blame him when he does iso 3 pt ball because he's one of the only players in the league who can do it. But let's also be real that his game is built off of chucking threes, which opens up lanes for him to do everything else. |

I never said steph was a ballhog I never said golden state doesn't move the ball I never said steph was a bad player. Ive said he's the most dangerous offensive player in the game But yeah, when I'm watching a game, I don't get inspired by a guy who is extraordinarily good at hitting prayer shots, which is a big part of stephs superstardom. That's all. I get it takes skill to do that and he has an all around game unlike a pure prayer ball guy like Jr Smith but it's a very big part of what he does (just as for Jr Smith, it is pretty much the only thing Jr does) |

The stats don't lie this year he shot 52% beyond 28-ft and that was a better efficiency than shooting 2's. And it is not like he started doing that in the NBA here he is at Davidson doing the exact same thing. Even Lebron was impressed. |

But let's not blow his game up to more than what it is. A lot of his game is built off of iso dribble and a lot of ball movement is generated from him being surrounded by defenders and having ballhandling skills to dribble his way out and find wide open teammates. We've seen some of that story fall apart some when draymond looks like shit and Iguodala or Barnes don't hit their open shots. He plays with a supporting cast that is playoff caliber even without him. On defense, he plays excellent within his role, but he is not a good man defender. His supporting defense is so good that he can play a specialized role on defense. So yeah, I think his all around game is a bit overrated. But he is still an elite player in my book and the most dangerous offensive player in my book. I know kc connections laughing because I've done this same harsh critique on LeBron when I felt he was also getting overhyped. I wouldn't feel quite this way about Curry if he wasnt elevated to indefensible God status |

I'm with you on Curry, but I recommend not talking to these guys anymore. You can heap all the praise on Curry that he deserves, but if you say you just don't like the guy, you're the worst person on earth. It's like giving good reasons for not liking a movie. These guys don't understand context. All they perceive is that you're shitting on Curry, and you must be stopped! |
