NBA: Lillard vs Curry

[FrostKing]

[lefty]

I would go with Steph, but if it comes down to one shot, I take Dame. When Dame is hot, there is none better. That said, Blazers with Steph would get at least to the WCF.

Kyrie is also a clutch mofo

Weird dude, but clutch

[Isitjustme?]

Steph. Steph.

[lefty]

But can Matthew Delladelodeladelova stop Lillard?

[Isitjustme?]

Well to be fair, he IS a choker not only bc of the missed shots but he blew a 3-1 lead in the finals which had never been done before in NBA history. You can’t blow that kinda lead, have the game winner hit in your eye, and not be called a choker

Good point for Dame here..cant lose in the Finals if you never get there

Well they're both Western Conference players so only Curry can be stopped by Delly in the playoffs since Dame never faces Eastern Conference teams in the playoffs.

It's not like Steph has been playing in a more stacked team while being carried by Alpha Klay and KD

CJ OutOfBoundCOllum is much better than those clowns

/s

Lillard basically copied everything Curry did, tbh.

Except clutchness imo

It's similar to the age old question, why do I still have as many finals appearances than CP3?

Truly though, Dame does deserve better. I think both franchises are failing their stars though. Maxing out Donkey was extremely stupid. Not shoring up the bench is a horrible move. Bob Meyers is mailing it in now and nobody will call him out for it even though it was Jerry West who built the damn thing. Steph and Dame are wasting their time in these places. They should move East... so the Spurs can make the playoffs

True. But my point is Lillard might've been the next Marbury instead if the league hadn't changed up their sh** to accomodate the Curry style.

except they didnt change anything to accommodate currys style, major changes happened many years before curry even came into the league

curry implemented a style of his own

feel free to back up your claim derp

I think Curry is the better overall shooter and probably better at getting his teammates involved and setting them up. So Curry, Curry for me (although I like Lillard a lot better and would always root for him against Steph).

[SpursforSix]

Lillard never had to rely on a teammate taking out the other team's best player to win a series.

Especially anything past the 2nd round.

But Lacob said their light years ahead of every other team

derp folds

thanks for playing

I like Lilland and I'm sure Dame would do much better with more talent around him but his style is very "heliocentric" (the term the stat nerds use for an offense where one guy does everything aka like Luka in Dallas but Dames not as good as Luka obv). So maybe his talents wouldnt translate as well as Steph seeing as how Curry can do both the heliocentric thing but also like the Reggie Miller/Ray Allen running all around the halfcourt with multiple screens to get open and drawing the defenses attention . Dame could do that too but I dont think hes of the elite level shooter skills that Curry, Allen, and Miller are. Defense freak out and overreact to every move and set of screens those type of guys make when running around to get open and it makes everything easier on their offense. Curry is also not great on D but better than dame since he has good instincts (he led the league in steals twice while Dame's career high is 1.2 steals per game).

Lillard has made it to the conference finals one time, where he lost to Steph's team 4-0. Steph's been to the conference finals five times, won all five, won three les, been the MVP twice, won 73 games in a season, and won 67 games twice-- all things Lillard hasn't come close to doing. His career shooting percentages are much higher, as are his playoff and regular season averages. Lillard's a damn good player, but it's like comparing Pascal Siakam or Al Horford to Tim Duncan... good players for sure. Not Tim Duncan.

Wow imagine if Curry had the better team
