    1 day after saying Rodman a better player than Kyrie

    cheap seats need a penalty box where you gotta go outside for 2 hours for stupid post !!

    sad !

    Where did you see that ?

    i thought u were making that point since u mentioned the assist numbers for curry despite everyone knowing they run a motion offense scheme where he and Dray share facilitating duties.

    You mean transgressions? And idc bout this ? which is why I'll never comment on it. I barely like talking about bron either

    Only thing I'm interested in its establishing who the top 5 players are at their position. Today

    Curry
    Harden
    Bron
    Eyebrow (Power Foward)
    Cousins



    If you put AD at the 5, then Blake at the 4.

    Who's the 4 behind them?

    Westbrook
    Derozan
    Kawhi - would've been KD at the start of the season
    The Nut ?
    Marc Gasol

    This guy....give me FIVE at each position lol

    PS: Tommy give me style back you using it wrong

    My bad. I thought you meant the next 5. I'll get back wit you. Gotta do my calculations and basketball analytics.

    Appreciate it

    Curry
    Westbrook
    Paul
    Wall
    Irving


    Harden
    Clayface
    Klay
    Beal
    McCollum


    LeBron
    Kawhi
    Durant
    Giannis - He's a Point-Shooting-Small-Power-Center, but I'll put him here
    PG


    Eyebrow
    Blake
    Nut ?
    Love
    Millsap


    Cousins
    KAT
    Gasol
    Gobert
    Jordan

    I can't really argue with this at all. I think (and this because of the defense) I would take green>>>blake

    But besides that, unless I'm leaving out somebody (butler over PG is really debatable) I think you hit it on the head
    For me great offense>>great defense so I gave it to Blake over Draymond.


    I went back n forth with it and Butler's probably a better team player, but I've seen PG take over more games so I gave it to him.

    And yet Kyrie is not on your list

    Read my later post. I said I'd replace Lowry with him or Lillard. Kyrie just ain't a traditional PG so I forget about him sometimes.

    Curry and Irving the same type

    Curry>>>>>Irving



    And Curry's a better passer

    Curry = Irving.

    They are very much equal in all aspects

    They're not equal as passers or shooters. Kyrie a decent passer, Curry a great passer. Kyrie a great shooter, Curry an all time shooter. Kyrie has better handles.

    Curry ain't no damn great passer.

    Lol. We obviously ain't watching the same player.

    CP3
    LBJ
    Wall
    Rubio

    These are great passers.

    Curry and Irving are players that are good passers that average around 6 assist a game despite have shooters all around them.
    So you Gotta average 10 assists to be a great passer? Lebron's never came close to that and he's one of the greatest passers of all time.

    Where did you see me write that at? I gave you 4 great passer.

    Because I could have said Westbrook or Harden. Them ? average a ? ton of assist but they ain't great passers

    That's the point. You're bringing up Curry "only" averaging 6 assists when he plays in an offense that's not built for one guy to dominate the ball and create for others. And he was averaging over 8 assists a few years ago. He's a great scorer so he's gonna look to score often instead of pass. That doesn't stop him from being a great passer. Neither does someone else being a better passer.

    Look here.

    Don't just throw the word great around when it don't fit.

    He is NOT a great passer. It's very few great passer in the NBA.

    CP3 is a Great passer. Curry is a good one.

    They are the champions. If I'm not mistaken they have had the trophy in between the "C" all season long

    According to Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer, not only does the veteran guard have an interest in signing with the Sixers, that team is similarly intrigued.

    “Sources have said the North Philly native has been interested in playing for the Sixers for some time,” Pompey wrote Wednesday of Lowry. He added that “sources have always said that the Sixers planned to offer Lowry a lucrative contract this summer.”

    If the sixers sign lowry then they might trade for jimmy too.

    None of them are trditional pg besides Paul and Wall. All these guys are scorers who are too short in todays NBA to play the 2.
