What I don't get is why the media likes to portray Curry as having an "aw shucks" persona when he's pretty far from that. He's one of the biggest showboaters in the game and clearly arrogant. The old timers are wrong about him but it's too bad he lacks class.

That game was amazing. I thought OKC had that game sealed until they inbounded that pass at the end of regulation. That was some bonehead head decisions by the thunder.

Stephen Curry backs up that show boating and cockiness with the shots he makes. It is sick. You just have to give the man his props, he dances around like a clown but until they shut him down and win a game against the Dubs he will continue.

They would be stupid not to milk it, tbh..

As I said in my "Warriors are pathetic" thread, last year, the media loves them and they are given a pass for their behavior due to Curry's non-threatening appearance + geographical reasons + style of play..

If the media and fans are going to love you, despite the arrogance that they usually despise from their athletes, you might as well milk it and have fun..

When you do shit like the stuff Steph does, I completely understand if you want to show off. It's really not that big of a deal. Just because Duncan is incredibly humble doesn't mean that I'm going to hate on anyone else for not being the same way.

With Curry, it doesn't really make much sense..he'll never have an off-court incident, he's fun to watch, he looks like a little kids, he's religious(if you're into that type of thing), etc..

It's just not my bag. I've been a Spurs fan since Robinson and that's because I admired the humility he always had and instilled on the franchise ever since. I'm proud the Spurs wear that proudly; that they're over themselves. Arrogance is a quality I've always despised in any shape or form. So naturally, I don't like the Dubs.

Meh, I think of Curry as more cocky/confident than arrogant. I know it's semantics, but it doesn't really seem like he talks down on his opponents and stuff like that. Just celebrates and his proud of his success (while usually including his teammates as well). I don't have any problems with that.

There are much worse characteristics you could have :lol MJ was just a flat-out asshole, for example.

The Warriors are having to play out of their minds and hit circus shots to be 53-5.

The Spurs are just playing normal ball, injured, and sit at 50-9, and not a word is being said about them. I'd be more willing to give the Warriors credit if the Spurs weren't right behind them and being this close, this late in the season, injured. The Warriors to me are still not a legit threat. Without missing Duncan the games we were without him, without missing Leonard, and Manu, those games, the Spurs could easily be 55-4.

:lol no, it's called being a realist and putting things into perspective..if the Spurs manage to beat them in a series, everybody should be aware of the magnitude of this feat, as the Warriors are historically great, right now..it would be the biggest accomplishment of the Pop-Duncan era IMO..

I used to be "homer fan" on ST in 2009 and 2010 back in my teenage years, trying to downplay the Lakers and thinking of scenarios where the Spurs could beat them..it's kind of silly to deny it, and those Lakers teams were nowhere near this Warriors team:lol

He's like his dad. Dell Curry was a nice guy, probably still is. There are some oddities happening in Golden State that boggle the mind:

1. Curry's shooting (not just ability, but results because the league is full of people with shooting ability, but they miss due to someone closing out on them or because they didn't go up straight or something, not Curry)
2. New head coach with an unknown philosophy and coaching style who was out half the season
3. AI coming off the bench, clutch as fuck (the most clutch player I've seen in a long time). He stroked those FTs like he was practicing.
4. Having the 2 best 3pt shooters in the NBA on the same team, both with short quick releases.
5. Bench that doesn't give up big leads
6. Most importantly, team that was ousted in the 1st round in 2014 turning into a juggernaut with basically only a coaching change.

Those are each individually interesting storylines but combined they are really hard to wrap your head around. So yeah, I'm enjoying their season as well. I actually stopped watching the Houston game after we went up by 20 in the 1st half and started watching the GS/OKC game instead. Great game, best I've seen in the regular season since I can recall.

How many time has LeHype been found doin the KidNPlay on the sideline? Only player that stood up to him was Joakim Noah.

Curry got his ankle jumped on, left the game, came back, broke his season 3pt record, tied Kobe's single game 3pt record - which won the game. I'd be happy too if I were him.

This game might have sealed the deal with breaking the Bulls record tbh.

Curry celebrating is annoying as hell, bit that's not what reply bothers me. It's the fact to nobody in the NBA has stepped up and put his ass on the floor. If he can do this shit after getting roughed up a little, then ill be impressed. Right now, he's out there landing triple axels and nobody has checked him into the board.

Best shooter ever no doubt, but until someone gets physical with him, its just target practice.

no point beating him in a meaningless RS game man, must exposed him in the playoffs...then if you win the series u can jump hip hop horay like a monkey

then again if you dont make the finals or win teh championship after disposing the used tampon worriers, then whats there to celebrate about?

Would you say that about TD, who will retire as the greatest power forward of all time yet also known for his stoicism? Don't get Spurs fan rationalizing this behavior when the team they claim to root for couldn't be further from that attitude.

or you know.. you could just appreciate seeing an amazingly talented player do some incredible things. get off your high horse.

He's like his dad. Dell Curry was a nice guy, probably still is. There are some oddities happening in Golden State that boggle the mind:

1. Curry's shooting (not just ability, but results because the league is full of people with shooting ability, but they miss due to someone closing out on them or because they didn't go up straight or something, not Curry)
2. New head coach with an unknown philosophy and coaching style who was out half the season
3. AI coming off the bench, clutch as fuck (the most clutch player I've seen in a long time). He stroked those FTs like he was practicing.
4. Having the 2 best 3pt shooters in the NBA on the same team, both with short quick releases.
5. Bench that doesn't give up big leads
6. Most importantly, team that was ousted in the 1st round in 2014 turning into a juggernaut with basically only a coaching change.

Those are each individually interesting storylines but combined they are really hard to wrap your head around. So yeah, I'm enjoying their season as well. I actually stopped watching the Houston game after we went up by 20 in the 1st half and started watching the GS/OKC game instead. Great game, best I've seen in the regular season since I can recall.
I'd argue that no one really paid them much attention , rather than then just coming out of nowhere.

2013 playoffs: very competitive series with Spurs where they could've easily been up 3-1 if Manu doesn't hit that insane gw iirc. David Lee was also out that series and Curry rolled his ankle in game 3? Or 4?

2014 playoffs: Bogut who was their defensive anchor at the time was out and they still took the clips to seven.

Then they acquired Shaun Livingston, Iggy(or traded for him in the 13-14 season icr), and Barbosa, got rid of some dead weight in Lee and Mark Jackson and upgraded with Steve Kerr. That combined with guys they drafted entering their prime(Curry, Klay, Barnes?) should've at least put the league on notice. They were already a solid talented team, but they fixed their two biggest issues, coaching and bench play, and somehow no one really took then seriously.

That game last night did some major collatteral damage in terms of how teams feel about competing for the rest of the season. I think everyone believes it hopeless now.

If Golden State has long ago acheived their goal by proving their doubters wrong but now....they've put the rest of the NBA in a inferiority hex. I don't think any team in league believe they can actually beat them in a 7 game series at all. This goes for any playoff team. Even the Spurs. I know your hatred spews over the pot hearing that and you dislike the taste of reality. It is what it is. This is GS

Please, maybe the Spurs don't have a chance but I doubt the team will just roll over and die. Until they beat the Spurs in 4 games in the playoffs then I'll give Popovich, Leonard and the rest of the team the benefit of the doubt that they can somehow beat this juggernaut.

Some of the antics from Curry and Green are annoying, but he's playing at such an unthinkable level that you can't do anything but respect him/them.

The difference between that team in the Warriors is that the Warriors don't rely on officiating to win games. I despise teams that get an abundant of bullshit calls rather than winning the game off skill. Even if they don't get a call, they get away with other crap.

The face of Bullshit calls is now James Harden. It use to be Wade, Pierce, James (and his teammates privilege), Chris Paul, Bosh, Durant, Westbrook, Kevin Martin at one point, Monte Ellis at one point, Kobe Bryant(and his teammates privilege), Cousins, and upcoming Wiggins and KAT; The Boston Celtics big three (and teammates privilege) and others I can't think of.

The only thing people have against the Warriors is that they set moving screens which every team in the league does. Despite that, they still are 21st in the league in free throw rate. Stephen Curry has dropped to 24th in free throws per game. Its kind of like the pushes in the back on rebounds. They'll catch it every now and then but it happens all the time.

Honestly, Curry showed last night that he didn't need a screen.

This Golden State team is a big step above that '14 Oklahoma City squad, but much like that series people will be expecting the Spurs to lose. A lot can happen for both teams before April, May and June, so I wouldn't jump to any conclusions just yet.

I agree with Harlem that this is the most daunting opponent in the Duncan/Popovich era and it will take a herculean effort from the Spurs to win. Leonard will need to channel '96 Scottie Pippen while Danny Green will need to be lights out from deep and play the best defense of his career.

agree with most of what you said. Its amazing curry can do all that with minimal charity stripe points, but when you're area of expertise is 30 ft from the basket you're not going to get fouled as much as someone that takes a beating in the lane night in and out.

Well gives us your insight you smart motherfucker you?

You just can't make a statement and not back back it up. Whatever argument you make, I'd just brush it off as complete denial because that's about half of the Spurs fans on this forums. The intelligent Spurs fans have accepted it. Then there's guys like you. The guys that make a statement but don't provide any credence to it. The same fans who wouldn't be around if the Spurs were to spiral into mediocrity for 5 to 10 years. The same fans who are spoiled as fuck by the Spurs success can't handle it when another team is in the limelight.

The Golden State Warriors are a different those fake sunshine nba media driven teams you're use to being pissed about. Golden State is actually legit. I despised the Heat(Recent and previous), Lakers(Late and Early 2000s), Suns(mid 2000's), Rockets(Recent), Thunder (Recent), Clippers(Recent); wanting the Spurs to trounce their illegitimate media boosted and/or nba rigged asses out of the playoffs. The Mavericks is a team the Spurs had owned forever and a day and that's the only team I can truly respect. That, and the Pistons. I was right there with you watching the Bullllll........shit and boy when the SPurs won, the resolve...felt...refreshing for weeks. Knowing that all the team that deserved to win won.

Could your anger be directed towards the Warrior eclipsing the Spurs historically elite season of being 50-9 and 3.5 games behind the Warriors? You of all people should know...that the SPURS..will never ever be perceived as a media darling. They will always be overshadowed. Kawhi is the best small forward in the league. People STILL don't know that. They don't even believe it. Hell they probably even forgot his name or don't know how to spell it. Jesus. You should know this shit

What are you going to argue? That the Golden State Warriors hack teams all the time play physical and knock teams on the floor? That they shouldn't celebrate their success by jumping around because they're the best team in NBA history and have shown their quality in 53-5 record? What about the that off season of everyone talking shit? They don't have any right to back that up and celebrate now that the the world knows their names? They've created an identity for themselves and people have to respect that.

What are you going to say? That they flop like bitches even when an actual player didn't flop, using hyperbole to your advantage when its convenient? I've watched 90% of their games. I can tell you if they're full of shit or not.

What are you going to call me? A bandwagon fan? A term that has been exaggerated and ill used to describe fans of other teams who praise the way Golden State performs on the court?

Are you going to go apeshit and call me the term "dickrider" or various ad hominems. The same ones that closet homosexuals are recently using around the web to describe people who give gratitude and credit where its due to sports team who deserve because throughout their miserable lives of being pathological narcissistic douche bags, they've willfully ignored what acknowledgement FUCKING IS.


Or are you going to get over your denial and face the face the mirror. The funny thing is...in a parallel universe, I'm the guy that's saying "As if free throws is the only way to get help from the officials."

No team relies on officiating to win games, and then they all do. If your defender can hold you under the basket, you're toast. You rely on officials to catch that and call the foul. If you know that you can attack the rim and the only way they can stop you is to foul you, you do that until it doesn't work. Neither of those scenarios means relying on the officiating to win games, and then both do.

That celebration at the end was disgusting. Chest bumping all about me attitude.

Im pretty sure any other player in the league would have celebrated after hitting that shot, if you can't celebrate after hitting an absurd 3 to win a game you had no business winning, then when is it acceptable to celebrate? Should he have just walked off the court with an expressionless face? Not everyone has no personality like duncan and leonard. Honestly i feel like stephs celebrations are kind of like a "eff you" to all his critics, all the "he's too small to play D1 college basketball" or "he will never be able to do that in the NBA" or "the warriors got lucky and steph didn't deserve the mvp" or the more recent "back in my day he could never make shots like that". And anyone who would say steph has an "all bout me attitude" must have never seen warriors game, because steph has no problem doing whatever the team needed him to do on any given night, sometimes that means scoring 50 and sometimes it means passing out of the double team or deferring to Klay. Either way, I don't understand why people get their panties in such a bunch when athletes celebrate their accomplishments, like when Buatista flipped his bat 45 feet after hitting bomb in the playoffs that shit was entertaining to me. But maybe I'm just a rare breed of fan that actually just watches sports to be entertained.
