    I think Curry is already the greatest PG to ever play the game. I think if he wins again, he'll be one of the best overall players to ever play the game.

      That is hilarious considering Steph is a scorer and at the PG position, he's average at best. He is a one dimensional player that averages 6 assists with the ball in his hands 80% of the time. Curry over Magic is like picking Devin Booker over MJ. At the PG position I'm taking Magic (of course) Isiah, CP, Oscar, J West and John Stockton. All were better point guards, Steph was a better scorer than all mentioned not named Oscar. Unbelievable

      Kobe had more than half his chips with Shaq as his finals mvp. We seem to give him a pass for that.

      Okay let me help this narrative 1st off KD was a free agent and if u can pick up a Superstar u do that... thats dumb not 2. 2nd point he didnt beg him that deal didnt go down unless Curry said yeah which he did and agreed too. Now how about this how is it that Bron gets a pass making a Superteam u go join a Finals MVP and then add with a All star? Lets stop trying to create narratives when we can do a alot of nit picking.

      ​@Kelvin Russell Let's not forget about the part that Steph won before that "guy", with that "guy" and since that "guy". That "guy" haven't won anything without Steph. So what does that tell you?

      Durant was a luxury that they really didn’t need. Great to have, but you can do without it. They were gonna win regardless.
