Didn't Curry's career almost get derailed by injuries in his first few years?
Ofc Chris is again schooling Rob about the fundamentals of Basketball. Rob is dumb af.
Steph has an elite skill set so he would be great in any era, but he would've absolutely taken a beating. His entire offensive game would be more similar to his early years anyway as the game was drastically different.
Steph would be riding the bench with the other specialists
What didn't you say if LeBron would hold up for 20yrs playing like that!! Stupid to say that because LeBron would have to battle down low night in and night out!!
Steph would have been a better version of his dad.
That's it.
Respectfully, Ky doesn’t have the “most street” game in the league. His fundamentals are next level. He has a lot of flair, but players like Bones Hyland and even D Rose have more of a playground friendly game.
Bron is from the hood and he aight no killer
Sports is a mindset thing. So KD and Curry can play the old school basketball. If you go into the the game knowing the rules and how they play. But since the game is played now by calling little fouls. They expect the call. If you play and you expect them not to call a foul on a hard hit you will play through it
"Mo Cheeks took the beating…" 😂 ayo pause
Drazen Petrovic, Mahmoud, Reggie Miller, Craig Ehlo, Hornacek etc
Only looking from one side. Nobody shot the ball like Steph Curry.
People forget Curry is very strong for his size. In 2016 he could bench the second heaviest amount only behind Andrew bogut. He has also added a lot of muscle between 2020 and 2023.
He may not have been able to play in the late 80’s early 90’s because his ankles were weak, but I have no doubt that if you take 2021 to present Curry and put him against the bad boys he would do fine.
There’s gonna be lots of traveling calls if the play in the 80’s and 90’s
That's my only problem with that Era is they never explain how they would play defense chuckster basically said they would just flagrant foul Steph curry the entire game That's not defense
You just hacking the better player isn't defense 🤦💯
Charles always talking nonsense. Nothing he says ever is right. He loves to always talk about how past was so much more tough to now. He just compares everything to back in the day which is just dumb but he’s dumb so makes sense that he would do that
You think that in those older days where everyone packed the paint Steph couldn’t get off his shot by running off screens? He might not be able to finish inside as easy but he wouldn’t need to because he would have a lot more space on the perimeter. And if you foul him? 90% free throw shooter.
Besides Charles Barkley being a menstrual the only problem I have with this argument is that superstars of the 80’s or 90’s wound be great in any era, where as players of today would struggle is past eras. Old timers gotta let the hate go and appreciate the great talent of today.
Leave it to Rob to always change the subject to baseball lol & leave it to Chris to take a shot at Kobe any chance he can.. smh
Steph takes beatings all the time and NEVER gets the whistle and still drops 25-30 efficiently every night!!!!
