Just revisionist history. The Lakers completely changed their teams over and over and it didn’t work. The 2020 year they changed like all but 3 players, then did it again after 2 years, they have tried it already. On top of that there is very clearly a Lakers tax. Team do not negotiate with them in good faith. When the Lakers are interested in a player they have to give up way more than other teams
@@IlltechnicaHe didn’t need to do well in the first four matches because it wasn’t important. And he’s plus minus is still leading the team after 4bad games and 2 good games . So maybe he’s doing something right there
@@Lovefact331 This is an irrelevant conclusion. If Team USA group matchups (first 3) "weren't as important," there's a chance they get a worse seeding or get knocked out by game 4. Those games absolutely mattered. Game 4, the Quarter Finals was a KNOCKOUT game. Lose, you go home. So, if the rest of the team played the way Steph did the first 4 games we're not in the Gold Medal game. We're not in the Bronze Medal game. We're talking about how this was the most epic flameout by a Team USA in history, and legacies are damaged.
@@Illtechnica The worst seeding they can get is facing 🇷🇸. Curry has good performance on all 3 games vs Serbia or France 🇫🇷. So why they won’t win? Prove that please. Even facing Brazil Curry got 7 points with 3 shots. So what is your evidence to prove that USA will be defeated
@@Illtechnica If everyone one on the team can get 12 points vs Serbia within 8 shots or 7 points in 3 shots. There is no way that USA is losing the game.
The medal and the Olympics never added anything to Steph, but Steph added a lot to the Olympics in my opinion. Not just him but the whole team to be honest but Steph there was like the icing on the cake
No way. You became a LEGEND in the sports history by achieving a gold medal, even more so on that stage (playing against the local team, in Paris, in the final)
I agree with you. He has completed everything that he needed to do in the game. The way he closed the game in the final wasn't fair on the French😂😂. If you win an Olympics gold medal you are immortalized.
Nah, it definitely added something to his legacy. The basketball finals was the most watched olympics event, so many people got exposed to cheering for, and experiencing the steph curry show for the first time. Those clutch 3s will be shown for years.
What are you talking about? Steph was cold for three consecutive games. The only reason he was able to shoot so well in the last two games is that LeBron passed him the ball to give him an open shot and he was in rhythm.
@@RaonakDM There are many players who can do what he does, its a very replicable game. Even Lebron has had big games where he doesnt miss from 3. The difference is no else does it as consistently on the big stages
@@euro51116delusional u can do what he does but it will not be the same bcus u will miss shots 😂 . U will not have the same percentages he has , shooting 3’s is easy , hitting them percentages plus the difficulty he does it is greatness , quit what u smokin’.

A bad shot is one you haven't practiced. Steph never has a bad shot. Bad positioning? Bad mechanics? Bad angles? Certainly. But the man ACTUALLY practices half- and 3/4-court shots. And double team off-balance fadeaway shots with big men all over him. And quick-release shots at EVERY angle to the basket. And finger rolls, and slipping defenses, and layups, and steals. He's an underrated stealer. He doesn't have any bad shots. He just occasionally happens to have bad timing or an off day. When he has three bad days in a row, though, you better watch out. Because he's about to go OFF. Regression to the mean - that's all this is.
@@illuminahde it's only a lower percentage shot if you don't practice it enough to be viable. And he's the only person on Earth in history who practices it enough to actually expect it to go in from that distance.
Forget whether Steph and LeBron are still among the best in the league, they are the most popular, everyone wants to see them play and win, we want the entertainment!
Can we talk about Steph without bring up bron. We know bron is great. Let Steph have his moments. Nick we know you’re in love with bron. Can we have a basketball conversation without bringing up bron or mike please

Cause to them curry is part of the lebron era not the other way around..they think curry boosts lebron legacy due to the kd move and 2016 choke ...they can't admit over the past decade or so curry has the better legacy post lebron in miami and should have 7 rings and lebron should have 0....
I guess Colin didn't watch the 2020 playoffs or 2023 warriors series...and davis in 2017 to 2018...when he was legit a top tier player just over shadowed by curry kd lebron harden russ and then giannis after that...everyone forgets he was great in a small market with bad benches...give him help he wins in new orleans imo if kd isn't a warrior.....
It's easy for me to get my brain around... Depth matters probably more than ever with the way guys need to be able to shoot to space the floor and not to mention play intense defense for those scrappy plays. If you have those guys and don't get hurt, you are set if you also have the 2 stars to back it up.
This is good for the players who haven’t won any chips recently, KD Bron, Steph (even tho he won in 22’) felt way more pride and excitement vs the other players. It’s good for them to feel that feeling of winning it all and contributing to the the last 2 games that were the most important. They will ride that feeling until the season starts. Probably more impactful to people than the Celtics winning the championship that was won just 2 months ago lol.
I would love to see Steph and Lebron on the same team at this point in their careers. I wouldn't miss a game. There would be a crazy sense of urgency because they're both in their "Final Chapters" and whoever else is fortunate enough to be on the team would be honored.
Just because a player does not score 30 every night does not mean he can't contribute in other ways. Steph is not a one dimensional players. If your shots are not going in you can contribute in other ways. Stop being so negative. smh.
Classic Bron fan media. He gets all the credit and everyone get all the blame. They didn’t talk about how Steph and KD spreading the court helped Bron get easy interior buckets. And they didn’t mention Bron having off nights the last two games and Steph exploring in the gold medal game the moment they sat Lebron.
Except you can walk bonds and pick off rick or make him get out at home plate...you can't stop steph without a hard double team at half court and staying with him and he still may score
Imaging saying Curry needed to win a gold medal to cement a damn thing. Y’all keep moving the goal post on the greatest shooter of all time and one of the all time point guards we’ll ever see.
“Played poorly” meaning he didn’t score a bunch of points. He was in the top-5 on the team in +/- and LeBron wasn’t in the top 8. ESPN even stopped showing +/- a two weeks ago because people were starting to notice.
No played poorly meaning he wasnt efficient at all offensively and that is his primary role. LeBron wasn't in top 8... what about the 4 other players on the court with him at same time? Also he was always onthe court in crunch time. You a hater
@@jasondavis2733 efficiency is what I’m talking about. He didn’t score a lot of points but his positive effect on the team was in the top 5, not my stats, the ones that the analysts track. There’s no hate on LeBron, again just stating facts. LeBron played the most minutes, which is impressive of course, but his efficiency was low because it took him way more minutes to reach the points, rebounds, and assist number than 7 other players on his team. That’s all that stat tracks, and again this ain’t hate, it’s literally just stating what the stats say. Don’t call hate when it’s just someone stating something you don’t like or agree with. It’s not hate lol Neither am I saying Steph had great games, they just weren’t high numbers. But if you watch the games, you would see the amount of wide open layups and dunks there were because Steph was double-teamed. I would say that ESPN removing the +/- stat from the box scores after it was mentioned that LeBron was #8 on the team is sus
Nobody cares about plus minus for players that play high minutes. There are 4 other players on the court that drastically will affect that. Are you 12 or new to basketball?
@@Picnic_ChickenLeBron had the highest efficiency index on the team for the whole tournament, somewhere above 23. The next player (I think it was KD) had something above 16 and so on. Steph wasn't even in the top three. Just go lie and cry somewhere else. 🤣🤣🤣
I understand it's personal for you, but he's wrong A LOT. The point isn't to be right, the point is to engage the audience. Many times that takes the form of saying outrageous things. Look at internet trolling for example. You have to get people's attention and do it quickly these days.
Best team is Steve Kerr's dream team. 1.- Steph 2.- Three-and-D Player ( Klay in Gsw or Booker with USA) 3. Wing scorer who can defend opponent best player and switch (KD-17-19-Wiggs 2021-KD USA) 4. High IQ player who can defend ,pass and made screens like (Green Gsw -LeBron without defense aand screens lol USA) . 5. Player who can defend on perimeter and/or be a lob threath ( Bogut/Looney Gsw and AD USA) .
It’s not like there’s a ton of moves out there to be made as far as trades. Lavine is pretty much the only one on the trade block. GS tried Lauri but that fell through
He said only AMERICAN player to get a triple-double. He has two. Jokic had the fifth Olympic triple-double in the Bronze Medal game against Germany. Luka had one in Tokyo and the other was some dude from the 70s.
@@26marces84 It is. You should listen more carefully. He said that LeBron got the second triple double at the Olympics in U.S. history, with the only other triple double by a team USA player being LeBron in 2012. It's at around the 1:20 mark. You either didn't listen properly or you don't understand.
Kobe's clutch performance against Spain in '08 was something he needed to show the world that he is HIM and why he was the best player at that time before LeBron took over the league. This time, Steph needed to show the world, especially around the media, it wasn't just LeBron dominating the league. It was also his for almost a decade now. It was a shared domination kinda like Magic and Bird. That last 3-pointer, we will never see anyone EVER not pass the ball to a wide open KD and LeBron 😂 Simply the greatest shooter ever 💯
so let's say how many game 7 did Jordan have 40pts? It's an invalid stat. What I am saying is that we have to factor in( if we actually watch Steph) that he wins many games in the the 3rd quarter because of his shooting. Steve Kerr is please to give him a rest if he accomplishes this early. And so this can apply to other Stars. If the star wins it in the 3rd we can't be like we'll he didn't have 4th quarter points.
Cowherd asks Nick a question about Curry, and right on cue he puts LEBRON in the convo when in essence if Steph doesn't score 60 pts the last 2 games with LEBRON having 2pts and 4 TOs in the fourth quarter of the Olympic Final, we don't win GOLD PERIOD.
@@DaReal911 He, Booker, and Holiday were the most consistent through the 6 games. However, you can tell LB23 was wearing down the last 2 games with the TOs in the 2nd halves. I blame Kerr and his rotations cuz he could have gave Tatum some of LB23's min in some of those 6 games,
Don't cherry pick the numbers! You've got to look at it in TOTALITY! How was Bron's defense, rebounding, and overall court presence? There's a reason Bron was on the floor almost the entire game! Basketball minds know he was driving the USA bus! Lebron has faults but he is one of the greatest to ever lace them up but people who don't like his politics or whatever keep trying to downplay his greatness!
GIVES CURRY’S ❗️WELCOME HERO AND RECOGNITION ‼️TO SAVE USA TEAMS… 2 xS HE DID TO WIN THE GOLD IN PARIS OLYMPICS 2024 ITS BREAKING THE RECORD HISTORY OF THE USA IN THE OLYMPICS‼️❗️
"I'm not saying you don't know what you are doing, but that's exactly what someone who doesn't know what they were doing would do" I'll have to remember that one the next time I talk to my great grand daughter..
Wilt changed the game a lot more. They changed the rules to stop him. They changed the rules to help players like Steph. Wilt is on a different planet.
This is why not landing Klay Thompson in the offseason was such an epic failure for Pelinka and the Lakers. Klay was THE perfect fit with AD and Lebron. Lebron would have averaged 20 assists a night just kicking things out to Klay. smh
The Olympic squad could rely on the older guys because the total number of games they played was in a short spurt so there was less necessary time to rest and recover. The Celtics and Thunder and other young teams are elite because they possess the stamina and durability to last 82 games and win a high enough quantity without their bodies wearing down. If the season was around ten games, LeBron and AD would be the best and most effective duo. However, the season is 82 games long and as a result players like Mikal Bridges become a lot more valuable for their consistency and availability.
Mj changed the way smaller score first wing defending speed players were seen drafted played he had an impact on how kobe d wade t mac vince ai played 100%....mj also effected the league more off the court wise but curry for sure has made kids growing up think they can shoot more and have fun doing it...not many nba players play like curry doe
The only reason Nick would want Steph and Lebron to team up is because he doesn’t want to see Steph get another ring over Lebron. Clearly Steph is still in his prime and still has a few more years left to where he can contend for another title. Curry with 5 rings in “Lebron’s era” would be a knock against for Lebron’s goat argument. You ain’t slick Nick !!!
@@Gregoryml21you do know that Steph is 36 right? He’s not winning another championship unless he teams up with someone better than him like a Giannis or Luka.
@@AR-rn8ok is he 40? Or he is Olympics MVP and still a top 5 player in the world? Bc they keep telling us the latter. But when we point out the contradictions to that, it then becomes “he’s 40, you need to adjust your expectations.” I had adjusted my expectations…until Steph Curry took over, went absolutely berserk when the team needed it the most, and ppl said, “Yeah but no, Lebron was the most valuable player on this team.”
Steph doesn't need the medal for his legacy, but showing the world all the superstars will defer to him at the biggest moment after trying everything means a lot. It's one crazy thing to leave dray and klay to double. It's a whole other level to leave LeBron and kd repeatedly!!
In other words from Nick Wright, "He went 11th all time best player to 10th all time best player." SMH This guy actually thinks he's clever with the underhanded, passive-aggressive shade. If anything this solidifies him as a top 5 player of all time and shuts up all the haters that say otherwise. THE MAN HAS OFFICIALLY DONE IT ALL
Nick just has to shoehorn Lebron into the Steph praise. To the surprise of no one he now wants Lebron and Curry to join forces under the guise of its "great for basketball", when in reality he just wants Lebron to get another championship no matter how he gets it.
@@boydnorville7053 Yeah, there was just Steph, especially in the first four games. 😏🙄🤣🤣🤣 You're literally making orhers mocking your favorite player even though otherwise we wouldn't do it.
@boydnorville7053 It's just your wish. 🤣 The MVP award is for the whole tournament, so we're talking about all the games, those where Steph was bricking hard included. Keep making us keep reminding the world about that. 😏
This is going to be a nightmare if steph and the 🐐 played on the same team I used to blame Kevin Durant for joining the warriors, but not for the same reason people judge him on OKC was up 3-1 to warriors and end up losing 3 straight and after that you team up with them because you know you're going to see Bron the 🐐
None of the American media talks about the leap the Europeans made in basketball. Literally Euroleague teams going neck to neck with the best players in the world. Just ignoring that.
Steph is obviously great; but give the ball to anyone else on the roster and they probably score to. Steph just had the hot hand so of course you keep giving it to him.

Correct. They also wouldn't have won gold without LeBron, KD, Book, Joel, AD, Jrue, White, Bam, etc
@@christaggart5687Nope. Since Lebron and KD didn’t stand out to save team USA. So you can not say that
Colin said we'll be a 5 win team 😂😂😂. JETS!!!!!!!!!!
I would love to see Steph and Lebron on the same team at this point in their careers. I wouldn't miss a game. There would be a crazy sense of urgency because they're both in their "Final Chapters" and whoever else is fortunate enough to be on the team would be honored.
The fact they can’t let Steph shine without saying LeBron says everything
Just because a player does not score 30 every night does not mean he can't contribute in other ways. Steph is not a one dimensional players. If your shots are not going in you can contribute in other ways. Stop being so negative. smh.
I see why i don't watch shows like this anymore
The question is about Curry but Nick spinned it to Lebron triple double? Keep going Nick...them Clutch Sports checks looking good! 👌🏻
Triple double because he has Steph to get assists. All boards he got are backboards even Steph got a front board
LeBron haters just can't cope. 🤣🤣🤣
@@vesnam116 LeBron believers are just blind. They will trust whatever Bron says. Even if it doesn’t make any sense.
Can you read the question?
Bro actually thinks nick gets paychecks to push an agenda
These two prove that Lebron homies only give Steph Curry credit plus negatives while always giving Lebron all the positives.
Classic Bron fan media. He gets all the credit and everyone get all the blame. They didn’t talk about how Steph and KD spreading the court helped Bron get easy interior buckets. And they didn’t mention Bron having off nights the last two games and Steph exploring in the gold medal game the moment they sat Lebron.
Barry Bonds,Rickey Henderson and Steph are all the same. You know what they are going to do and you still cant stop it.
Except you can walk bonds and pick off rick or make him get out at home plate...you can't stop steph without a hard double team at half court and staying with him and he still may score
“7th grader to be named later” is an all time chirp
Imaging saying Curry needed to win a gold medal to cement a damn thing. Y’all keep moving the goal post on the greatest shooter of all time and one of the all time point guards we’ll ever see.
Steph Curry is HIM.
This Steph curry explosion got more views than a Super Bowl and more views than any basketball game in the last ten years.
“Played poorly” meaning he didn’t score a bunch of points. He was in the top-5 on the team in +/- and LeBron wasn’t in the top 8. ESPN even stopped showing +/- a two weeks ago because people were starting to notice.
No played poorly meaning he wasnt efficient at all offensively and that is his primary role. LeBron wasn't in top 8... what about the 4 other players on the court with him at same time? Also he was always onthe court in crunch time. You a hater
@@jasondavis2733 efficiency is what I’m talking about. He didn’t score a lot of points but his positive effect on the team was in the top 5, not my stats, the ones that the analysts track. There’s no hate on LeBron, again just stating facts. LeBron played the most minutes, which is impressive of course, but his efficiency was low because it took him way more minutes to reach the points, rebounds, and assist number than 7 other players on his team. That’s all that stat tracks, and again this ain’t hate, it’s literally just stating what the stats say. Don’t call hate when it’s just someone stating something you don’t like or agree with. It’s not hate lol
Neither am I saying Steph had great games, they just weren’t high numbers. But if you watch the games, you would see the amount of wide open layups and dunks there were because Steph was double-teamed.
I would say that ESPN removing the +/- stat from the box scores after it was mentioned that LeBron was #8 on the team is sus
Nobody cares about plus minus for players that play high minutes. There are 4 other players on the court that drastically will affect that. Are you 12 or new to basketball?
@@Picnic_ChickenLeBron had the highest efficiency index on the team for the whole tournament, somewhere above 23. The next player (I think it was KD) had something above 16 and so on. Steph wasn't even in the top three. Just go lie and cry somewhere else. 🤣🤣🤣
@@vesnam116 Bro brought up another random stat as an argument for the stat he's arguing against wow so smart
Colin Cowherd, you should say sorry for what you said about Joel Embiid a couple of weeks ago. From Angola
Colin was...wrong.
Collin wasnt wrong
Who cares about embiid? From Cameroon
I understand it's personal for you, but he's wrong A LOT. The point isn't to be right, the point is to engage the audience. Many times that takes the form of saying outrageous things. Look at internet trolling for example. You have to get people's attention and do it quickly these days.
@@Obi2020-c8x😂🤡🤡don’t talk ball
KD and Lebron like…. What you doing! Is crazy
I truly believe Lakers have a good chance next year. AD is so underrated.
a chance to win the play-in game??
Best team is Steve Kerr's dream team. 1.- Steph 2.- Three-and-D Player ( Klay in Gsw or Booker with USA) 3. Wing scorer who can defend opponent best player and switch (KD-17-19-Wiggs 2021-KD USA) 4. High IQ player who can defend ,pass and made screens like (Green Gsw -LeBron without defense aand screens lol USA) . 5. Player who can defend on perimeter and/or be a lob threath ( Bogut/Looney Gsw and AD USA) .
Why don’t these two have a show together yet?
All these Olympics show me that the 2015-2022 era belong to steph regardless.
It’s not like there’s a ton of moves out there to be made as far as trades. Lavine is pretty much the only one on the trade block. GS tried Lauri but that fell through
The 2 heads of Fox Sports back on camera together.
That suit is smooth
I'd like to see KD and Steph link back up.
I cant remember a time in the NBA when everyone (media wise) was obsessed w/getting a player a Championship i.e LBJ teaming up w/Curry.
7:41 Damn, I like Josh Hart too but idk about "Legendary" Mr. Nick Wright!
Nick keep saying LeBron is the only player to get a triple double in Olympic basketball is false smh
He said only AMERICAN player to get a triple-double. He has two. Jokic had the fifth Olympic triple-double in the Bronze Medal game against Germany. Luka had one in Tokyo and the other was some dude from the 70s.
@@dylan9013that’s not what he said
@@26marces84 It is. You should listen more carefully.
He said that LeBron got the second triple double at the Olympics in U.S. history, with the only other triple double by a team USA player being LeBron in 2012.
It's at around the 1:20 mark. You either didn't listen properly or you don't understand.
It's the highlight of my week when Nick Wright joins Colin on Tuesdays! They are both at the top of the heap.
Kobe's clutch performance against Spain in '08 was something he needed to show the world that he is HIM and why he was the best player at that time before LeBron took over the league.
This time, Steph needed to show the world, especially around the media, it wasn't just LeBron dominating the league. It was also his for almost a decade now. It was a shared domination kinda like Magic and Bird.
That last 3-pointer, we will never see anyone EVER not pass the ball to a wide open KD and LeBron 😂 Simply the greatest shooter ever 💯
Nick Wright went full leprechaun. And it's not even St. Patrick's Day! 😂
Nick looks like the Notre Dame mascot today ☘️
so let's say how many game 7 did Jordan have 40pts? It's an invalid stat. What I am saying is that we have to factor in( if we actually watch Steph) that he wins many games in the the 3rd quarter because of his shooting. Steve Kerr is please to give him a rest if he accomplishes this early. And so this can apply to other Stars. If the star wins it in the 3rd we can't be like we'll he didn't have 4th quarter points.
lol nick's ensemble is giving lucky the celtics logo vibes
Cowherd asks Nick a question about Curry, and right on cue he puts LEBRON in the convo when in essence if Steph doesn't score 60 pts the last 2 games with LEBRON having 2pts and 4 TOs in the fourth quarter of the Olympic Final, we don't win GOLD PERIOD.
So what about the other 4 games?
@@DaReal911 He, Booker, and Holiday were the most consistent through the 6 games. However, you can tell LB23 was wearing down the last 2 games with the TOs in the 2nd halves. I blame Kerr and his rotations cuz he could have gave Tatum some of LB23's min in some of those 6 games,
@pierreperkins what? So how s that different when they talk about lebron they bring in Jordan.😂😂😂😂
Don't cherry pick the numbers! You've got to look at it in TOTALITY! How was Bron's defense, rebounding, and overall court presence? There's a reason Bron was on the floor almost the entire game! Basketball minds know he was driving the USA bus! Lebron has faults but he is one of the greatest to ever lace them up but people who don't like his politics or whatever keep trying to downplay his greatness!
@@leonardomoore1868 U just did sir. 🙄
GIVES CURRY’S ❗️WELCOME HERO AND RECOGNITION ‼️TO SAVE USA TEAMS… 2 xS HE DID TO WIN THE GOLD IN PARIS OLYMPICS 2024
ITS BREAKING THE RECORD HISTORY OF THE USA IN THE OLYMPICS‼️❗️
I can’t say any player changed the game MORE than Curry. But there are few players who changed the game AS MUCH as Curry fs
"I'm not saying you don't know what you are doing, but that's exactly what someone who doesn't know what they were doing would do" I'll have to remember that one the next time I talk to my great grand daughter..
No Nick looks like the Notre Dame logo dude 😂
Wilt changed the game a lot more. They changed the rules to stop him. They changed the rules to help players like Steph. Wilt is on a different planet.
This is why not landing Klay Thompson in the offseason was such an epic failure for Pelinka and the Lakers. Klay was THE perfect fit with AD and Lebron. Lebron would have averaged 20 assists a night just kicking things out to Klay. smh
The Olympic squad could rely on the older guys because the total number of games they played was in a short spurt so there was less necessary time to rest and recover. The Celtics and Thunder and other young teams are elite because they possess the stamina and durability to last 82 games and win a high enough quantity without their bodies wearing down. If the season was around ten games, LeBron and AD would be the best and most effective duo. However, the season is 82 games long and as a result players like Mikal Bridges become a lot more valuable for their consistency and availability.
Curry is the best pg ever
Magic 🎩 🪄 🔮 Johnson is
Stockton
@@evelynn4273you joking right?
Curry isn't a PG.
Magic #1, Curry #2
Mj changed the way smaller score first wing defending speed players were seen drafted played he had an impact on how kobe d wade t mac vince ai played 100%....mj also effected the league more off the court wise but curry for sure has made kids growing up think they can shoot more and have fun doing it...not many nba players play like curry doe
Can someone see if there’s a Knicks trade that works because THAT would be insane
Nick is such a Curry hater. Dude is amazing- and has been constantly (on the same team).
And more chips that his boy crush LeFraud.
The only reason Nick would want Steph and Lebron to team up is because he doesn’t want to see Steph get another ring over Lebron. Clearly Steph is still in his prime and still has a few more years left to where he can contend for another title. Curry with 5 rings in “Lebron’s era” would be a knock against for Lebron’s goat argument. You ain’t slick Nick !!!
@@Gregoryml21 , facts
@@greggibson33 they both have 4
@@Gregoryml21you do know that Steph is 36 right? He’s not winning another championship unless he teams up with someone better than him like a Giannis or Luka.
What Curry did against France made me forget what Lebron did all Olympics
That is easy to understand. I have dealt with small minded people all my life.
Don’t forget about all those turnovers
Well Lebron is 40. He was screwing up a lot those last two games but he still played great. Thank god Steph saved them.
Lebron led in turnovers. So inspirational!
@@AR-rn8ok is he 40? Or he is Olympics MVP and still a top 5 player in the world? Bc they keep telling us the latter. But when we point out the contradictions to that, it then becomes “he’s 40, you need to adjust your expectations.” I had adjusted my expectations…until Steph Curry took over, went absolutely berserk when the team needed it the most, and ppl said, “Yeah but no, Lebron was the most valuable player on this team.”
Steph doesn't need the medal for his legacy, but showing the world all the superstars will defer to him at the biggest moment after trying everything means a lot. It's one crazy thing to leave dray and klay to double. It's a whole other level to leave LeBron and kd repeatedly!!
In other words from Nick Wright, "He went 11th all time best player to 10th all time best player." SMH This guy actually thinks he's clever with the underhanded, passive-aggressive shade. If anything this solidifies him as a top 5 player of all time and shuts up all the haters that say otherwise. THE MAN HAS OFFICIALLY DONE IT ALL
Nick just has to shoehorn Lebron into the Steph praise. To the surprise of no one he now wants Lebron and Curry to join forces under the guise of its "great for basketball", when in reality he just wants Lebron to get another championship no matter how he gets it.
There was no Steph and LeBron, there was just Steph. But we expect this kind of rhetoric, don't we...😒
@@boydnorville7053 Yeah, there was just Steph, especially in the first four games. 😏🙄🤣🤣🤣 You're literally making orhers mocking your favorite player even though otherwise we wouldn't do it.
@@vesnam116 nobody's talking about the first four games bub. The discussion was about the final and semifinal games. Pay attention!
I mean Bron played great in the EXHIBITION GAMES, Steph owned the ELIMINATION ROUNDS when team USA needed saving and Bron was making silly mistakes.

This is going to be a nightmare if steph and the 🐐 played on the same team
I used to blame Kevin Durant for joining the warriors, but not for the same reason people judge him on
OKC was up 3-1 to warriors and end up losing 3 straight and after that you team up with them because you know you're going to see Bron the 🐐
A lot of ifs in these statements and d rose is a legend
None of the American media talks about the leap the Europeans made in basketball. Literally Euroleague teams going neck to neck with the best players in the world. Just ignoring that.
Probably that last win of consequence for Steph, LeBron and KD.
Love how he hyping Bron last 2 games lol
unpopular opinion: jets don’t need reddick as much as the media thinks they do + he doesn’t have much leverage
Steph is obviously great; but give the ball to anyone else on the roster and they probably score to. Steph just had the hot hand so of course you keep giving it to him.
When they took him out in the Serbia game they went from being down 6 to about 15
They just needa team up and win 2 or 3 straight
