CURRY....OMG

Can't stand the guy.. I know I'll catch hell for it but he's a cocky smart a$$ on the court and thinks he's Jordan or something.. Not hating because he backs his game up for sure, there just something about him that irks the hell outta me.
Isn't that kind of the definition of hating?
honestly I had no idea what was meant until I read further into the thread......
OP would you mind giving a little synopsis of what was going on next time, so the rest of us aren't saying WTH? TIA

No, because I've givin him his props on his game.. Hating- I can't stand him, always scores 40 and hits 60%of his 3's and chews on that mouth piece like he's hard or some sh$t.. Now that's hating
Any guy that's 6'3, maybe 200 lbs. soaking wet, can barely dunk and dominates the league like he is, can act however he wants. He's a bad man.
Yeah, dominates the league. You average over 30 ppg in the NBA at his size and with his lack of athleticism (compared to most other guards in the league), you can call that whatever you want but most people refer to that as domination.
I don't understand why people want to hate on great players because they are "cocky". Obviously confidence is needed in being one of the all time greats, especially in Curry's case since he lacks prototypical size.
If anybody is dominating the league right now it's him.
Back to back MVPs, defending finals MVP, was the team leader averaging a NBA LEADING 30 PPG on a team that set the NBA record for wins w/o their coach for half the season? Yeah that's dominating the league.
To dominate the league.. You have to play both sides and he don't do that.. He shoots three's off 80% of the time illegal screens.. So no, he doesn't dominate the league.. And no, I'm not hating...
Yes, he has been dominating for the past 2 years. I don't particularly like the guy either, but he has been on a remarkable tear and doesn't seem to be slowing down with back to back MVP's.
So the domination bar is set lower for him because of his size and what you perceive to be a lack of athleticism?
I agree he's on a tear, just think to dominate the league you've gotta play "D" too.. And I think we all know that he doesn't play "D" ...players like KD & Lebron play defense and still get their points..
He's the best right now. He still ain't MJ
Yeah I know.. You know, seeing how he's a midget and all.. And in the league with hardly any athletic ability .. Lol
No defense?!?!!?! The man LED THE LEAGUE IN STEALS! But yeah...no defense right?
Steph led the league in steals this year. And Lebron's on the ball defense is one of the worst in the league. He doesn't try on defense unless he can shoot the passing lane for a steal or try for a run down block on the break.
Riverslynn just keeps digging a hole. Despite relatively average D, yes, Curry is dominating the league. Scoring titles, breaking (shattering) his own 3pt fg records, team has a historic W-L record, a title, hitting shots from 37 feet out at a better eFG% than dunking the ball... come on man, it's okay to not like him, but he and the Warriors have clearly changed the style of play in the modern NBA.
EDIT: he actually has better defensive metrics than I thought. Anyway, look at where Curry is on these lists and tell me he isn't dominating: http://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2016_leaders.html , specifially true FG%, eFG%, VORP, and BPM. When you've got offense like that, that's all you need to dominate.

You google that? Good for you... I've watched a lot of games and have never seen him play defense..and I see 5 players ahead of him in defense from gaurds..
It's fine to not like him as a player or person, but to deny that he's clearly dominating the league right now is just silly. I dislike the Steelers but I don't just willfully pretend they suck when they win Super Bowls.
It makes you sound like a Louisville fan. Everything you've said in this thread is as goofy as "Siva>Wall"
Umm, YES. Dominates the league. Absolutely. The dude just led his team to an unprecedented 73-9 record while averaging over 30 ppg with phenomenal percentages, all while also leading the league in steals on the defensive end, and while also averaging 7 assists per game, and he's about to win his second straight NBA championship and his second straight MVP award. If that doesn't qualify as "dominates the league", then nothing does.
What exactly is your problem with that word choice?
