They would have figured it out pretty quickly, but there's no era where he wouldn't have been Steph Curry. I honestly wish LeBron had been around in this era because after getting used to hard contact he would have been an even better player. No one around today would question his toughness and his highlights would have been truly insane.
I'm not saying he isn't great. But he wouldn't be able to shoot all those crazy 3's. In the 90s, it would be harder for him to drive to the Lane. Because guards and bigs would be able to punish him down low. He would not have the extra step that every NBA player in the modern era has. It would be a really hard adjustment for him. He would still be great. The rules are just way different for back in the day
@@kfnccookI think you’re underestimating how strong & physical Curry is. He would tear guards apart & dish it in the lane if they overplay him. No zone defense too, Curry would COOK 1 on 1
Of course, he's strong, but he would have to play all 82 games and it would be way harder on his body than you think it would. Where in Terre is a real thing? And when there's no logic management, it would be a problem. You remember what happened when he tried to play hard? He got hurt in the beginning, so load management. Still a great player though
Stars will flourish in any era. Put lebron in the 90’s he’s eating, put Kawhi in the 90’s he’s eating. Any truly good player will still be good no matter the era
@@JosephVargas-v6h the problem with LeBron is his overacting with the flops. People equate that to lack of mental strength, and people think he'd break mentally and give up. Similar to what the Broncos did the Cam; dude is as physically impressive a specimen as there was, and they broke him mentally that he wouldn't fall on the ball; he pretty much said what's the point?
Mugsy revolutionized handles like Curry revolutionized the 3 point shot. I'm a huge 90s stan, but acting like the best shooter ever will not flourish because he was slightly below average in height is absolute madness.
It's not just the physicality. In 90's, you could not just flat out carry the ball or do some 012 crap or ask teammate to set a moving screen or double dribble like today. That's where it'd be tough for today's players to play in the 90s. Video games don't simulate that.
Damn, so curry going back in time means - MJs Goat case tarnished - Kobe and Shaq never team up -Kobe goes to the pacers -Vin Baker never becomes an alcoholic Wild
@@prince-bm4xt crazy how sending one guy back has such a huge impact on the entire future of the league haha. I wonder if there's a nobody player in today's NBA who could change the whole league if they were sent back. 😂
Well, if everyone played the way they did in the 90s Steph would have way too much talent for them and he would be by far the MVP almost every year. His defense would be average, but his shooting ability would be ridiculous.
He would've averaged 40 in his best scoring seasons in that era because the League was handicapped by the Illegal Defense and no Zone Defense rules which would've made it so much easier for him to score in 1 on 1 iso because teams weren't allowed to send help on the weak side of the floor and double the best player on the opposing team as soon as they drive to the rim or catch the ball in the mid range and if anyone allows any great player like Steph to blow by them and drive into the paint with no help then they will get scored on every single time 💯
Curry's not an iso player tho. He's not quite strong/fast enough for it. If the coach at the time runs the offense thru Curry similarly to what GS has now, then yeah, he could probably get a shot off at any time. Lots of things to consider. Fun exercise!
How did Curry not win a ring with Yao? That's crazy, would have been a dominant duo really. Also crazy that the Warriors didn't get any better players. Blazers, Twolves, Rockets, basically all the other teams got at least two great players in this.
People always say NBA has no defense now. But in 90s, the defense behind the arc was not as intense as now. They wouldn't guard Curry's 3pt from logo region.
Video games never adequately represent the Detroit Pistons of the late 80's/early 90's... You won't find guys getting mobbed by three guys when you go down the key, a hand on your face from Rodman, Laimbeer sticking his foot out further so that you'll land on it and twist your ankle, Thomas with a little elbow in your ribs, etc.
Im 59yrs old. & Since, I was always a shooter, back in the 1980s, to the 2010s, I ended up, fitting in, in the new eras... anyway, I do feel, Steph Curry a body would probably break down faster than now. He would be pushed & shoved alot more, than in the present time... I still feel that, he would have good numbers, but, less prime yrs though.
To me , steph belongs in the goat conversation. His shooting is so lethal, i have a hard time seeing pre Steph nba being able to keep up if you put him on equal teams against anyone. Hes an anomaly
Bro you know his battle scars are clearly seen right?? He's like the most harrased player now without getting called. NBA be like, be free to harass him and refs won't give a shit.
Its funny how people try to argue he gets star treatment he's one of the most disrespected stars I've seen but apparently its ok because most of it happens off ball they tug his jersey scratch his arms its like the league made different rules for guarding Steph so the rest of the league could compete
Worst narrative I've heard. Of course he could survive and smash the league back then. I am 80s kid and watched the 90s NBA. He's miles ahead of Mark Price.
The question is not would he survive the question is what coach would have had a system where he could take the shots he takes now? Half court shots made or missed would have had him benched
Don Nelson (Warriors coach at the time) would have allowed it just like Kerr did in the 2010's. The reason a coach would bench a guy for shooting like that is because every other player in the history of the game can't make it. Steph Curry isn't every other player. Curry repeatedly proves he can, and does it at a high enough rate to justify it. The NBA 3-pt line is 23'-9"......Steph Curry hits 30+ foot shots at a rate of 40.5%, which puts him on par with Reggie Miller's ability to hit 3s from anywhere. Nobody's benching a guy with that range and consistency.
freaking stupid if people don't think he can 'survive'. of course he can. he may not be able to play the way he plays today, but he'll survive. he'll find a way to be awesome. good players today will be good in the 90s in different ways.
Look, guys, I'm not saying that Steph Curry's not one of the greatest players ever. I'm just saying that he would have a hard time adjusting to that era of basketball. It doesn't matter what he does in this era. It's a totally different game back. Then people could be mean to you. He would definitely have to play through cheap shots and horrible fails. Remember he was hurt twice in this era. And there would be no resting He would still be great of course
Putting Steph Curry in the 90s on your video game to see if he could survive because he was only 6’3” was a complete useless waste of time. Muggsy Bogues played in the 90s and he was only 5’3”. Spud Webb also played in the 90s and he was only 5’6” and he could dunk
I do love Klay and Dray, but Steph with Chris Mullin and Tim Hardaway would have been fun in it's own right. It would look a little different, but I think the level of dominance would have been similar.
Not because offenses have gotten too good. The NBA has changed the rules and the way the officials call the game. They did this on purpose because they scoring is exciting.
A simulation is no comparison for the actually defense played. Also Steph would not have started at an 85 ovrl. He was barely mid 70’s in his rookie year.
Moral of the story. Curry can flourish in that era
