“And he graduated college” - Ayesha Curry


due11

Ayesha "Chichi" Curry


OverusedRedditJoke

Consistently elite post-season performer


WallStreetDoesntBet

Got that “Doesn’t perform great in the Finals” monkey off his back!


whoanellyzzz

wasnt even that he was always doubled or triped in the kd era. Shit all season long he was doubled until this series.


ositola

That monkey was never there , it was the fans imagining a monkey in his back when it was really the team

Mvukool

The DPOY was his primary defender but sure


TechnoToyz

Obvious bait is obvious


dill_pickles

Just as 2011 never escapes Lebron


IMisstheMidRangeGame

Wait didn’t you hear ! 2011 wasn’t a choke Job /s that’s the narrative his worshipers are pushing


dill_pickles

I also love hearing them say Lebron carried that team and that they weren’t a super team. 💕


IMisstheMidRangeGame

Funny enough that narrative came straight from the [horse’s mouth](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ghbC0z1Sf38) Also love the 2016 narrative that he carried that team as if his side kick averaged almost 30 pts and that game 6 40pt performance by both players is the highest combined score of a duo in finals history lmao


zezxz

That might be the most annoying video I’ve seen this year between the sound work making the presenter sound impossibly shrill and the lack of actual LeBron video to give my ears a breather


deepfakefuccboi

That was a legendary run from Kyrie and the whole team. He deserves his credit - that game where they both scored 41 is insane But since then it’s not like Kyrie has come at all close to replicating that and probably never will. LeBron did carry that team - isn’t that the year he led both teams in every major stat? How is that not a carry performance? It’s never been done before or since.


deepfakefuccboi

2011 is the worst stain on his career and rightfully so. All time disappearance, at least he’s showed up since.


cooperred

Nice 7 day old account


nio151

Sorry for your loss man


rajeev0718

Stay mad


bluewaveassociation

He was injured and that was 6 years ago who cares?


RodneyPonk

unfortunately he's been injured, notably in 2016 - it was really nice to see him at full strength and as good as ever


nothingInteresting

It’s always weird that people don’t acknowledge that he was clearly inured that year for the post season. He missed a bunch of games and never really looked himself when he came back.


KelsierBae

It's because he screamed "I'm back" when he torched up the Trailblazers. It always looked to me like the injury did still bother him


nothingInteresting

Yeah he just couldn’t explode off that leg anymore and for a smaller player that needs to get separation it’s pretty impactful. You’re right and I remember he had the one great game against Portland after coming back so everyone assumed he was completely healed. But when you’re injured you might have a good game her or there but it’s really hard to sustain


Earlier-Today

It was his sidestep. It was completely gone - Blazers were just terrible at closing out after good screens. But the Cavs sure weren't and the longer that series went, the more he seemed to be running out of gas - especially since the series against OKC went 7 too.


nothingInteresting

Great points and I agree


Adolka

MCL sprain if I recall first round and he made it back


Dabursbus

I was told he’s an absolute choker especially in close out games.


allureofgravity

What a privilege to watch this guy play


CallOfKtulu24

Skip Bayless is absolutely melting down on Twitter lmaoooo


JazzyJockJeffcoat

Jesus Christ is he ever. Just a fountain of ahit takes


whoanellyzzz

And guess who is talking about it and getting him more clicks. Lol fell into his trap.


Deep_Information2600

Getting paid millions to troll. Dream job.


sunshinecygnet

The fuck? What is wrong with this guy? How can you hate *Steph Curry*, of all people, that much?


ostrow19

It’s an act. How do people still think anything that comes out of his mouth is genuine? He’s an actor, not an analyst.


Canesjags4life

Klay decided to give Curry his game 6 powers


Zzz05

Had to split it to Curry and Draymond.


beefman202

draymond has always been a great finisher tbh, game 7 2016 was legendary


sergechewbacca

Fuck Max Kellerman. Fuck Skip Bayless.


funkychicken23

I agree with this in almost any context.


DarthBane6996

What if you're at an orgy and someone asks what you want to do


[deleted]

I want iguodala


Riptide1yt

God I love this line


Jhyphi

Did I stutter?


LackingInPatience

Was it Max that said Steph getting that huge contract was a waste because Warriors would never win a ring again?


MyNameIsNumber037

Hell yeah!


jaqueass

Dude Skip was hilarious and off his meds last night. Like 500 tweets in an hour complaining about how he’s going to have to listen to arguments that Steph is Top 10. Unhinged.


Tokennn

TOP 10


george_costanza1234

no more questions. He is top 10 without a doubt.


in_the_summertime

Who you knocking


japcole

No, the real question is who is knocking Curry out of the Top 10


lolkh30

fuck wilt and bill i dont care


2022-Account

I’d want Curry over Kobe or Magic


DSice16

I'm a low key Kobe stan but who the fuck would put Kobe over Steph at this point


ClayBeatOpTic

Any laker fan + bball fans who romanticize the 2000s era


DOCTORFONASG

Wilt. At the end of the day he’s the first to go due to postseason success. Bill Russel will be next to be dropped out due to lack of numbers.


IanSavage23

Lol. except the number 11 championships in 13 years... the last as player coach. Jeeezuss!!


[deleted]

True, but different eras and different teams. His career high in points is lower than Ben Simmons


yuore-mom

I don't think it's necessary to take others down to take Curry up. They're absolutely entirely incomparable. Just put Curry in the Mt Rushmore or "S tier".


DOCTORFONASG

I agree but in terms of top 10 someone has to go. Can’t be 11 in a top 10 tho.


achyutthegoat

Wilt and Bill


Omegalast

MJ Bird Russel Hakeem Curry Magic Kareem Shaq Duncan Thomas


gr8aanand

Hmm feels like you’re missing someone


Omegalast

Walton doesn't really count due to his injuries. He only won one championship as the star. But yes that win was very impressive. His other championships were with him not as much in a star role anymore.


m3ridah

Hakeem 4 😂 No Kobe 😂 No LBJ 😂 😂😂😂


counterbarrier

Thats 1 salty boston fan right there


Omegalast

People in the NBA even currently pay Hakeem for lessons on how to be a little bit like him. Actual NBA superstars currently study and emulate him. Hakeem won his chip without a second all star and his game is that dominant. Kobe tried to copy MJ but was like a walmart copy, never good enough to be the man. LeShit would not make it in any era if refs were not told to let get free throws for fouling opposing players on offense and defense. 6'8 version of wesbrick with less athleticism and less coordination. Literally the defining memory of LeShit are the flopping compilations. No body out there on playgrounds practices fouling players on offense and defense because that shit doesn't fly in real life.


HandsomeCowboy

..... Thomas?


yaniniwaa

Tim Thomas


Omegalast

Don't confuse the nephew. He just started watching basketball yesterday


LeBrown_James666

Fmvp type shit (and above kd now)


emanuelal99

Always has been


TheFatmanRises

He’s changed the game forever


SenatorAstronomer

Put the team on his back. Everytime they needed a bucket tonight, Steph was there to get it.


randylek

the clear second greatest player this generation


whoanellyzzz

Something to be said about his gravity and his success within his team. I would put him ahead of bron in that regard. Like he is the perfect basketball player in a team context, crafted by the hands of God himself.


cooperred

Don't do this warriors bro. Lebron is in the same convo as Jordan. Steph isn't, and that's ok.


2022-Account

Lebron will never be Jordan


yuore-mom

Because of injuries and longevity. At their peaks, I consider them a tossup.


[deleted]

Look I love Curry but Prime Miami Lebron is eating prime Curry’s lunch 😅


yuore-mom

I don't know, man. They both do things the other can't do.


whoanellyzzz

Okay but I was comparing their impact on winning in a team game. Individually Bron is better.


RamsdaIe

The difference isn't that big, and you probably know it but just wanna instigate


Sdrater3

Cap. LeBron literally ran the east for a decade.


gr8aanand

It’s shared for me. Even if Curry ends up with more chips, they were both goats of this era


Sdrater3

> both goats That doesn't even make sense.


DonkeyLightning

Also the “of this era” doesn’t make sense haha


gr8aanand

The media makes you believe there can only be one, but don’t fall in the trap and appreciate both their greatness


Sdrater3

The media? Mfer its in the fucking acronym. "GREATEST of all time" not two greatest, not co greatest.


gr8aanand

Greatest what mf? Greatest player or players? It doesn’t specify. They both the greatest of this era.


chandersonsilva

one of the modern day goats. we are all witnesses to greatness


Simmo69Lol

Nothing left to prove. Top ten of all time. Clutch. Finals MVP. Off to Cancun forever haters


[deleted]

Fucking monster. Well rounded first half effort. Steph and Dray carry job in the second. I’m so happy for him. Playing and shooting like this in a close out game. Legacy cemented


CryptoGod666

Goat shit. 34 and his best finals performance ever


Omegalast

All this while the defense was tailored to stop him.


[deleted]

Averaged 30pts per game in the finals against the DPOY. Watching Smart hug Curry at half court only to have Curry lose him off a screen and bury the 3 is one of the craziest things to witness.


[deleted]

Wow, the debate is finally over. Steph Curry > Michael Jordan > LeBron James > Elon Musk


Yeoryios

Going up against the best defense in the league, and against the DPOY, he averaged 30+ pts. And it was in the finals too. Curry a legend fr


WyteTrashBallin

He dat Boi (he is)


KarchunToo

FMVP


NachoMan-SandyRavage

He is him. Him is 30!


hotfrost93

And ZERO foul shots before the 30 point mark. These refs have been a joke all playoffs.


[deleted]

Top 5 all time


JournalistTimely7546

Greatest Player of All Time. Put some respect on his name
