I see it a lot here, but this NBA board is a ridiculous place as a whole with hatred being slugged around like nothing — so maybe I'm over-analyzing.
But, seriously, why the hate? He's a good role model for younger kids, doesn't have a bad history with crime like a lot of other NBA stars in the past, and he's exciting and remarkable to watch as a skilled player.
Aside from "LOL WARRIORS SUCK", I don't see a lot of reason to hate the guy, seems like a lot of Spursfans are upset here and taking it out on someone who is probably the best star that has next to no grime on his resume.
Spurs fan always want to hate the next up and coming team (:cry chimpbrook beats his chest after a dunk, :cry Steph celebrates like won the championship after every 3, etc) but I actually like him. He's very overrated though. He wasn't the MVP this season either. (harden)

It happens with every basketball player, there's always gonna be someone who hates professional basketball players. Anthony Davis is liked right now, but give it a few years and the haters will be showing up criticizing him to no end. It's sad but true. So much hate online

That's faulty logic to me. Who, in the NBA, was ever a great shooter that wasn't ever a "chucker"? Sometimes you'll get shots that make it in and sometimes you won't: it happens to the best of them. To me, a "chucker" is someone who consistently gets less shots in than out, and Curry has had an historically great season and to compare him to players like Marbury and others who were well-known at throwing up shots and blanking them is insulting to the game of basketball.
He had a bad game, yes, but to think that one game encapsulates his style of play is wrong — he is usually a great shooter as opposed to one who just throws up shots that don't make it in.

No one here hates him. We take shots at everyone given the opportunity. The fluffing section is upstairs.

Steve Nash instantly came to mind. Great shooter but rarely forced as many dumbass threes early in the shot clock like Curry and also had one of the best midrange games I've ever seen from a point guard. To me a chucker takes dumb shots at ill-advised times without even thinking of running a play or getting someone else a shot. Their mind is already made up that they're going to launch it as soon as they have daylight. Curry strikes me as that kind of player.

Curry absolutely has the same mindset attributed to most chuckers. So did Michael Jordan. What separates Jordan, and to a lesser extent Curry, is that they have the talent and system around them to make being such a high-usage player into a positive for their team.

Here is the main difference between Curry and Jordan chucking
- MJ always had proper form and played the situation correctly [Enabling his teammates to rebound]. He was confident in his skill set and teammates. He didn't resort to trying to trick the opponent with quick shots. Some of those chucks yesterday were mind blowing. The quick shot/alley oop toss was a head scratcher

Yeah, I don't know. I think a lot of people feel like he's not as good as people say he is, so now he deserves to get shit on.
Not really surprising, given that he just set an NBA Finals record for missed 3s. I mean, you have to admit that's pretty ironic for the guy who won the 3-point shooting contest, had one of the greatest shooting seasons of all time, and was MVP of the league. :lol Come on.

Curry has brought posing and slow walking after every shot to the nba game. Dude poses after shots in the middle of the second qtr. it's like nfl players getting up with a celebratory dance after a tackle on a guy that just got three yards on a 1 & 10 in the 1st qtr.
Now it's infecting other players and shits getting old. Or I'm getting old. Not quite sure at this point.

No he wasn't. That would be Lebron James. Going from missing the playoffs 4 consecutive years to 2nd seed in the East proves it, and if that doesn't get it, him sweeping the Hawks single handed should.

Harden is more valuable to the Rockets. Who takes over the reigns? Terry or Josh Smith [Yikes]
Cavs still had Irving/Love and completely reconstructed their roster adding talent

The media literally didn't say a damn word when Harden put up 45 on 13/22, 7/11, 12/13 in game 4 :lmao That was the best individual performance in the playoffs up until that point.
If Curry has another night like that in Cleveland in game 3, the media will begin to turn on him. One game is allowed, don't want to look like idiots for voting him MVP after all while James was making movies in Miami.

Please. When your people weren't hopping into bed with each other's husbands & wives & running to TMZ they showed Parker's wife & Duncan's wife all the time + Barry's wife in that juicy little blue teddy...bitch.

The MVP award is and always will be simply "player of the year".
The throw the word "valuable" in there to add ambiguity but the "player of the year" usually wins it.

Curry's value has actually been even more evident than usual in the playoffs, tbh..the Warriors being a "stacked" team has become a really vanilla take..they have a lot of good to great role players and Thompson is a good #3 guy on a title team, but they struggle immensely when Curry isn't dominant..

In '06 Nash did as much with cast off teammates as anyone in a much tougher conference. Lost Amare for the year. Lost Joe Johnson to free agency and still lead a very injured, rag tag bunch to the WCF where they were very competitive with the Mavs. I had no problem with him winning MVP in '06.
