The one with Minnesota was more complex than that. They couldn't draft Curry even if they want too, since Stephen Curry is adamant he doesn't want to play in Minnesota, and will demand for a trade if they do so.
When the Knicks drafted Porzingis: “WE DRAFTED PORZINGIS?!” Years later: “Porzingis is my friend” If the Knicks drafted Curry: “We drafted an undersized kid who can’t do much more than shoot the ball?!” Years later: “Curry is my friend”
Cole Lutz hind sight is always 20/20. Who’s to say Dolan wouldn’t have traded him in the first year or two. And good job making everything about you and the Knicks. It’s not 1995. The Knicks are irrelevant man. And let’s not act like this is all on Curry. They also needed some great drafting with Thompson and Green too.
Cole Lutz he’s supposed to do that smh what ever happened to common sense. 😂 you praise the people who help your team win , you don’t praise those who you think will make you lose smh
Not really, their fans (and perhaps franchise too) really wanted Steph Curry so much so they booed when GWS drafted him cause they were so disappointed
I don't think the media expected this kind of performance from steph again, especially since Durant has been there on GS. Steph really did take a back seat to Durant. So watching this, is reminding them of that unanimous, MVP level player. I say this, because the Media already sold their narratives for this years MVP, and Curry was not even in their minds.
Hard to say cause that one year with the Knicks melo took em to the playoffs. U can't deny Steph, melo, a'mare stoudemare. Could of been a finals favorite. Even with the heat full force that year.
Reeko He Made Davidson College Relevant and respectable...Their Only NBA player...He has the ability to make any team great and those that truly follow his career know this...You don’t realize how great he is I was saying he was the best player his rookie year!! I followed him in college...he went off on everyone and led his team to the longest win streak that year... Davidson College!! As soon as he signed with Davidson His coach new they would be great.... Any team Steph would’ve gone to would’ve been great! He can create his own shot with no help at all and his been that way even before leading Davidson to the elite 8 and making them relevant.... Any team he went to this was bound to happen...His team ain’t got nothing to do with him bringing the ball up the court and pulling up on 3 defenders
I understand how Stephen A feels because Steph Curry is the most exciting and most amazing player to watch ... He's also the best basketball player in the world !!!
Curry wouldn't be the same player if he was on the Knicks. Golden State's medical staff were the ones who came up with his special Ankle Braces that kept him from getting injured. Also when he was injured most teams would've traded him as projections showed he wouldn't be able to maintain his health so the Knicks probably would've traded him. We can't act like players are the player that they are no matter where they go, Oladipo wasn't close to what he was right now on the Magic or Thunder. It's about fit and Golden State was the best fit.
About half of it is the organization. But some credit to Curry too. He's personality and culture he creates as a leader makes players want to play with him and he elevates others. You look at Warriors players they always dancing and high five Curry because they enjoy playing with him. Some players bring doom and depression to their teammates I can name a few.
@@neckboneschannel Obviously Curry is a Top 10 Greatest of All-Time talent and I give him all the credit in the world for putting in the work to make that happen I'm just saying that Golden State is the reason why Curry was able to excel to that not because they made him better or anything but because they believed in him 100% and helped him as much as they could. I bet there are some NBA players that were All-Stars that could've been All-Time Greats if they were with good organizational fits. EDIT: I'm not saying he's a Top 10 player ever I'm just saying he has the talent to put himself in that position.
What Stephen A is clearly leaving out is the Knicks organization SUCKS. And I'm a die hard Knickd fan. We would've ruined Steph and never developed him properly. Or we would've shipped him out of town when he had all of the ankle injuries because this franchise has ZERO patience with their drafted players. They rather overpay other teams players instead of developing their own players. Hell...we drafted Tim Hardaway Jr..only to trade him away..watch him improve in ATL...then pay him too much to come back. FML
@@tmac29nyc TBH.. I am not sure what I'm seeing right now. Our offense is a joke. It's basically a freelance offense which allows whoever has the ball to create a shot for himself. I'm not sure what to make of Fizdale as he comes off as a PR guy more than a coach to me. I dont see any organization on offense or defense but the players are playing hard at times. I'll tell you this tho...in NY.. you can only get away with being a nice guy who says things we like to hear for so long. At some point I need to see results or all the "cool" guy shit will work against him. That's how we roll. Sorry Fiz
Bruh I absolutely love steph my favorite player of all time....also what do you mean developed? You sir cameron newton should know he always had that ability LOL. But foreal it doesn't matter how great and skilled the player is the Knicks front office are bound and determined to find a way to completely fuck up building around their best player and even worse finding a coach that will actually instill a system that best fits his skills.
You do know that the warriors were also a dumpster fire of an organization at that point too, that's how they had a lottery pick in the top 10 which grabbed them SC30 so you never know what might of been had Steph gone to New York he might have elevated them and attracted free agents with his style of play and plus it's the largest media market in the country
d antoni was the knicks coach and he would love curry! curry had to suffer from the disease of ellis! the knicks were a better fit for curry than the warriors in 2009!
His Dad wanted him to play for the Knicks too.😂 Curry didn’t work out for the team and the GM selected him anyway. Every time the Warriors play in MN there’s a fan with a sign stating the “Wolves passed on Curry twice”. It is the best thing EVER.
No if the warriors pass on steph the Knicks will definitely pick him but will surely trade him after that horrible ankle injury that hold him for 2 seasons .... the wolves are fucked up for drafting two point guards over steph
@Elton Francis Not to mention the Medical Staff. If it wasn't for Golden State's Medical Staff creating those special Ankle Braces and for management believing he could be a great player he wouldn't be close to the player he is today. Knicks would've traded him also.
I hate him and his dad cause they straight up told the Timberwolves not to draft him. He would sit out if we did. No one seems to bring that up eber tho and then laugh at Minnesota for passing on him for 2 other guards. In 2009 this is the potential lineup Minnesota couldve had Curry Derozan Brewer/Gomes Love Al Jefferson
It is 2018 and Steph Curry is STILL underrated. People have just gotten use to what he does and do not realize how rare what he is doing actually is. I went off on this on my channel today.
He's really in a different league. Because his defense is questionable at times but nobody shoots from 40 feet or off the dribble better than the baby faced assassin
Can this guy please stop saying "he's the best shooter in the world" like that's all he is? He's been the best shooter in the world since like, 2013. His trajectory is the GOAT. Get your head right.
when you get a Legend like Stephen Curry, you dont only get a MVP player and the greatest shooter of all time player, you also get a player who other great players wants to play with and be part of his team, Steph is a superstar and also a great teammate and human being 👌💕
Yeah, the problem with Jimmer is he only can shoot and shoot only. He is not crafty like Curry or Irving. He can not creates his own shoot off the dribble. Plus he is 2 inches shorter than both Curry and Irving. He is poor man's J.J. Reddick, and that's a low ceiling for a PG.
The knicks organization wouldve absolutley screwd stephs career im glad hes not on the knicks, phil jackson wouldnt have been unselfish to bring the things curry wouldve needed. Steph is matched up with unselfish ppl,which matches stephs character And this whole gsw team. Mike d antoni either He wouldnt have been able to do anything either.
He’s more than just the best shooter. He’s got that killer instinct and the most efficient in the clutch. He would knock those 2 free throws that Lebron missed. Lebron isnt good in the free throw line and even worse in clutch moments. They refs can help him by putting him in the free Throw line when he fouls his way to the basket. It’s horrible now, he’s so used to get the call that he doesn’t even finess his way to the basket, he just fouls his way to the basket and if he missed the lay up, the referee just calls the foul either way. But the refs can’t shoot the free throws for him.
I know. In 5 games Steph might have 15 free throws. In 5 games Lebron James will have a minimum of 50 free throws. Anybody who spends that much time at the free throw line as Lebron James should be able to shoot free throws better. Especially after 16 years of living at the free throw line
Here’s the issue with it even if the knicks took curry would the knicks have stayed with curry through his early injuries? I believe he had about 3 seasons of injuries idk if the knicks would have stuck with him as the warriors did
Erik Rashawn Coates yeah I was thinking the same thing. I mean if he would have signed for cheap with them then yeah, but the Knicks don't keep anyone. After they leave they do way better. Ex Ariza, Frye, Crawford, David Lee won a chip, ECT.
He only missed the majority of two seasons, including last year, from injuries. He still had a injury trend but it wasn't as bad a Joel embids first couple of years.
He technically didn't miss a "majority" of games last season, but yes, he's only had two seasons where he missed significant time due to injury. His ankle issues were a lingering problem that predate 2011-2012, though.
Former Knicks fan here. But make NO mistake about it. Had Curry gone to the Knicks, they would have UNDOUBTEDLY found a way to stifle his development and keep him from blossoming into what he is today. They DID NOT and DO NOT deserve him..........EVER !!!!
Magic? Point guard that can play 1-5 and be affective, imo the greatest point guard of all time, and don’t sleep on Oscar Robinson, Magic would slap Curry 8 times to Sunday
@@blastproof8555 Curry fits better with this lineup because he brings a deep threat, and Lebron plays the same role as Magic anyway. If you play Magic, not one person in that lineup can be a reliable marksman, and the paint gets too crowded.
for the past 4 years when i feel down i only need to look for Curry highlights and im ok thank uou for these years curry. please give this next year that is my Christmas wish early March
By the way this *ain't nothing* for Curry have you seen what better performances he has done before this is *nothing* .He has hit at least *five 3-pointers* in each game so far.Curry has *scored 30* or more points in four of the first five games so far.he hit *13 threes* in a game currant record by the way. *54 points career high* .He has multiple *11 threes* in a game.Theres *hundreds* of players that have 11 threes for a career high and Curry do it on a *daily basis* .Most threes in a *finals* .Most threes in a season. *2,162 threes* made so far in his career.He can make *77 threes* in a row look it up.This is just another game to add to the *many many accomplishments* for *Stephen Curry* .
Stephen A Smith: Now before I get started on ( INSERT NBA PLAYER NAME) let me just start by saying I personally know his father whose a great role model, great person to be around and don’t let me get started on his mother whose one of sweetest people on God’s green earth...
Damn, that genuine sad take by Stephen A.... NY is a city with such rich Basketball culture it makes me sick that the Knicks can't ever get into the conversation. If only James Dolan would sell off the franchise.
JD 1 At the time it was the better choice. The thing is curry was a injury prone player and people thought he could end up the way jimmer freddete ended up. Where as Rubio was looked at as a playmaking genius. I mean he played basketball professionally since he was 14 years old. which is crazy. I feel like he could have been a dominant point guard if he had an above average jumpshot, but we all now how he ended up.
At the time, Ricky Rubio was viewed as a point guard who was a great playmaker. On the other hand, Steph Curry at the time was very frail, crafty, and a great shooter. Many people didnt believe his game could translate to the NBA.
Darren Ezeh I know, what I meant was that they thought he wouldn’t be athletic enough on both sides of the court ,to have an impact(which turned out to be wrong). Jimmer freddette was similar in that sense that’s why I mentioned him(In his case they were right though)
He wouldve never gotten as good as he has on the knicks. The warriors played him smart and allowed him to recover from his ankle injuries, and be patient with him. The knicks wouldve worn him out and he wouldve never seen the finals. This is coming from a knicks fan
It's going on 20 years now since the Knicks last played in the Finals. As a New Yorker, I would love to see the Knicks not only winning, but playing in May and June again.
While everyone acknowledges that Steph is a great player, he is actually being under represented as one of, if not the deadliest all time offensive player ever. He get's overlooked because he isn't posterizing other players on a nightly basis, dunking is not part of his game. To illustrate this, basketball is moving towards more sabermetrics, but's it's still been slow to adapt. If you follow baseball you know that sabermetrics is all they talk about. But if you ran some kind of sabermetrics with Curry, he would probably grade out as the best offensive player ever on a per game basis. I know this season is still young, but he is shooting 55% from the field, 53% from 3 point range, and 91% from the line. Usually only big men who shoot near the room can get that high a field goal %. But Steph is doing this and he is doing this by launching balls from all over the court. He might not be as gifted a raw athlete as MJ and LBJ, but he is more efficient than both those guys and he will one day be possibly recognized as the greatest offensive player ever if you judge it by efficiency.
Warriors have made so many horrible draft picks and trades they deserved to finally catch a break. Not only with Curry but Klay drafted #11 and Dray drafted #35.
Stephen Curry aint no God pfffft... Who cares if he revolutionized the NBA despite everyone questioning if he'd even make it in the big leauges. What's the big deal if the lil' dude worked his butt off to change his shot and suddenly own every 3 pt record on the books? So what if he won several championships and is one of the best role models for our kids today. So what if he works hard? Big deal...
Bird won MVP in 83-84 playing alongside 3 HOFs Duncan won MVP in 02-03 playing alongside 3 HOFs Bill Russell won MVP in 57-58 playing alongside 6 HOFs Wilt won MVP in 59-60 playing alongside 3 HOFs Stop with this BS narrative that Steph can’t win MVP because of the talent he has around him, we all know why you don’t wanna give it to him
The Knicks will never win anything ever again until they give Patrick Ewing the Head Coaching Job. They've been cursed ever since they fell out with him in 2000! #facts
The Knicks wouldn’t have been patient because his early years he had ankle problems and you know how the knicks. I’m glad he didn’t play for the Knicks, best pg in basketball and 2nd best pg ever
After the wizards saw Steph hit that high ass floater, John wall and them boys phoned it in "Yea he ain't missing this game, get the plane ready" 🤣🤣

Aww man getting me hyped for the Christmas games!
This is absolutely true... #FACTS
Timberwolves had two chances to get Curry. Lol.
Lol
Timberwolves choose 2 guards before curry!
Minnesota hold the biggest L of 21st century

Here’s the issue with it even if the knicks took curry would the knicks have stayed with curry through his early injuries? I believe he had about 3 seasons of injuries idk if the knicks would have stuck with him as the warriors did
Erik Rashawn Coates yeah I was thinking the same thing. I mean if he would have signed for cheap with them then yeah, but the Knicks don't keep anyone. After they leave they do way better. Ex Ariza, Frye, Crawford, David Lee won a chip, ECT.
He only missed the majority of two seasons, including last year, from injuries. He still had a injury trend but it wasn't as bad a Joel embids first couple of years.
The question is "would he had gotten injured?"
JusSick24 yes. They were pre existing injuries. That’s part of why he went so low
He technically didn't miss a "majority" of games last season, but yes, he's only had two seasons where he missed significant time due to injury. His ankle issues were a lingering problem that predate 2011-2012, though.
How he shoots those 3s are jaw dropping,,wow
Portland could have had KD and Jordan but they Choked
Speaking of choking let's not forget the avengers blew a 5-1 infinity stone lead on thanos
Greg Oden would have been a beast if not for injuries
@@hozman5700 he wouldn't have been KD I can tell you that. But yh Greg was solid in Milwaukee
Biggest choke in choke history.
Pray for New York
Former Knicks fan here. But make NO mistake about it. Had Curry gone to the Knicks, they would have UNDOUBTEDLY found a way to stifle his development and keep him from blossoming into what he is today. They DID NOT and DO NOT deserve him..........EVER !!!!
Peter Paz servera y
returned to this video after steph broke ray allen's record for regular season 3s.
Actually, his name is Wardell.
His momma named him Stephen, I'ma call him Stephen
Curry actually wanted to go to the Knicks too lmao, Knicks wanted him too
All-time starting 5:
Curry
Jordan
Lebron
Duncan
Kareem
ArcadianGenesis where is Hakeem....
Your all-time rivalry starting 5:
Stockton
Kobe
Durant
Davis
Shaq
Magic? Point guard that can play 1-5 and be affective, imo the greatest point guard of all time, and don’t sleep on Oscar Robinson, Magic would slap Curry 8 times to Sunday
@@blastproof8555 Curry fits better with this lineup because he brings a deep threat, and Lebron plays the same role as Magic anyway. If you play Magic, not one person in that lineup can be a reliable marksman, and the paint gets too crowded.
Magic curry Jordan LeBron and Kareem . That's my 5.
for the past 4 years when i feel down i only need to look for Curry highlights and im ok thank uou for these years curry. please give this next year that is my Christmas wish early March
By the way this *ain't nothing* for Curry have you seen what better performances he has done before this is *nothing* .He has hit at least *five 3-pointers* in each game so far.Curry has *scored 30* or more points in four of the first five games so far.he hit *13 threes* in a game currant record by the way. *54 points career high* .He has multiple *11 threes* in a game.Theres *hundreds* of players that have 11 threes for a career high and Curry do it on a *daily basis* .Most threes in a *finals* .Most threes in a season. *2,162 threes* made so far in his career.He can make *77 threes* in a row look it up.This is just another game to add to the *many many accomplishments* for *Stephen Curry* .
What about the Wolves the Wolves got 2 Chance....Yes TWO CHANCES of Drafting Curry but instead they draft Bums and No names.....smh
Well aftey they traded rubio rubio became a top 5 pg in the league waiting for the comments
so your name is Stephen, hell this whole time I thought it was Stephen
Stephen A Smith: Now before I get started on ( INSERT NBA PLAYER NAME) let me just start by saying I personally know his father whose a great role model, great person to be around and don’t let me get started on his mother whose one of sweetest people on God’s green earth...
4:40 Just go ahead & lose😁😁😁
YaBoyCurtis 1 I almost passed out laughing. That was funny
Lmao.
Man SAS really hurt about that shit lmmfao. Look at how he was visualizing at the end then just put his head down like Damn. Lmfao
Stephen Curry would've become Stephen Marbury if he went to the Knicks 😂
wroney16 lol
He the MVP!!!!....in China 😆
Why is SAS harping on something that happened 9 years ago? #LetItGo
The Greatness of Steph Curry this season he's waking people up, greatest shooter of all time and he's still going
Damn, that genuine sad take by Stephen A.... NY is a city with such rich Basketball culture it makes me sick that the Knicks can't ever get into the conversation. If only James Dolan would sell off the franchise.
Being a Pistons fan I look back to the 2004 draft and I know exactly how Stephen A feels.
As a Knicks fan, I feel the same way
Don't let me get started on his mama words can't express how sweet she is lol
Shoutout to Stephen A Smith I seen you on west 61 st n west end
With or without his hairline?
Flashyfinancier a lil but of both
1:03 When you can't think of something to say so you just repeat something and hope you'll come up with something.
Why would anyone draft, a soft playmaker from Spain, over Steph curry? Crazy
JD 1 because hindsight is 20/20
JD 1 At the time it was the better choice. The thing is curry was a injury prone player and people thought he could end up the way jimmer freddete ended up. Where as Rubio was looked at as a playmaking genius. I mean he played basketball professionally since he was 14 years old. which is crazy. I feel like he could have been a dominant point guard if he had an above average jumpshot, but we all now how he ended up.
Jerome 355 everything you said was right accept jimmer fredette was drafted two years after Curry
At the time, Ricky Rubio was viewed as a point guard who was a great playmaker. On the other hand, Steph Curry at the time was very frail, crafty, and a great shooter. Many people didnt believe his game could translate to the NBA.
Darren Ezeh I know, what I meant was that they thought he wouldn’t be athletic enough on both sides of the court ,to have an impact(which turned out to be wrong). Jimmer freddette was similar in that sense that’s why I mentioned him(In his case they were right though)
He wouldve never gotten as good as he has on the knicks. The warriors played him smart and allowed him to recover from his ankle injuries, and be patient with him. The knicks wouldve worn him out and he wouldve never seen the finals. This is coming from a knicks fan
If curry was a knick, EVERYTHING would've changed right now.
It's going on 20 years now since the Knicks last played in the Finals. As a New Yorker, I would love to see the Knicks not only winning, but playing in May and June again.
While everyone acknowledges that Steph is a great player, he is actually being under represented as one of, if not the deadliest all time offensive player ever. He get's overlooked because he isn't posterizing other players on a nightly basis, dunking is not part of his game.
To illustrate this, basketball is moving towards more sabermetrics, but's it's still been slow to adapt. If you follow baseball you know that sabermetrics is all they talk about. But if you ran some kind of sabermetrics with Curry, he would probably grade out as the best offensive player ever on a per game basis.
I know this season is still young, but he is shooting 55% from the field, 53% from 3 point range, and 91% from the line. Usually only big men who shoot near the room can get that high a field goal %. But Steph is doing this and he is doing this by launching balls from all over the court.
He might not be as gifted a raw athlete as MJ and LBJ, but he is more efficient than both those guys and he will one day be possibly recognized as the greatest offensive player ever if you judge it by efficiency.
Word, I feel like Crying right now...
They probably wouldve traded him
I basically know this video word for word because I've watched this video like 50 times. SAS is hilarious 🤣
It would have been incredibly wonderful to see him do his thing nightly in NYC! But, how would Carmello have handled this young upstart?
Warriors have made so many horrible draft picks and trades they deserved to finally catch a break. Not only with Curry but Klay drafted #11 and Dray drafted #35.
SAS can't describe how much he loves Curry's mother huh...?
Well...she hottest momma in nba y'know
ET If Delobye was on the Warriors he would’ve probably tried to holla 😂
@ET fuck delonte
"Kevin Durant had a quiet night y'all he did... You know what he had?. 30"💀💀😂😂😭
Finally admits he is JEALOUS
LOL!!!! SAS watching the Knicks said, "Go ahead and lose." lol *crying tears*
Now he or kd dropping 60 on us tomorrow night😭. Thanks alot SAS.
wweecwwcwtnanba1928 might be Klay
No but go on a 47 to 9 run in the 4th ahaha
Stay on Golden State Warriors Stephen Curry don't ever leave
Stephen Curry aint no God pfffft... Who cares if he revolutionized the NBA despite everyone questioning if he'd even make it in the big leauges. What's the big deal if the lil' dude worked his butt off to change his shot and suddenly own every 3 pt record on the books? So what if he won several championships and is one of the best role models for our kids today. So what if he works hard?
Big deal...
big deal, media will still hype lebron's bum ass over any great player anyway xD.
@@metalsadman dripping with sarcasm.
This. This comment right here
Me too Mr. smith
I never knew you was a Knick fan‼️💯
We gonna shine soon🤟🏾💪🏾
I love when he talks about Steph ! It's just hilarious and facts at the same time 💯
I love both Stephens...never loved basketball until I watch Steph curry play but the icing on the cake is your commentary :-)
“Only person that called me Stephen was my mom” welp from now on I’m calling him Stephen (steff-in)
(Steff-en)
Am Nigerian and I love this man...🤣🤣His analysis on youtube about basket ball is hilarious and entertaining..
Why am I laughing at his pain...........Lmfao
Bird won MVP in 83-84 playing alongside 3 HOFs
Duncan won MVP in 02-03 playing alongside 3 HOFs
Bill Russell won MVP in 57-58 playing alongside 6 HOFs
Wilt won MVP in 59-60 playing alongside 3 HOFs
Stop with this BS narrative that Steph can’t win MVP because of the talent he has around him, we all know why you don’t wanna give it to him
Kd had a quiet night and ended up w/ 30. Aint nobody knocking them boys off.
Stephen A. .. you're a riot! You're on point though.
The Knicks will never win anything ever again until they give Patrick Ewing the Head Coaching Job. They've been cursed ever since they fell out with him in 2000! #facts
Stephen A..that was humbling from you and shows your true form ..kudos champ.
Dear ESPN, tell Stephen A Smith that I like that shirt. Thanks Papi.
Anyone else get annoyed when people make fun of organizations for messing up a pick? Like fr, no way anyone could know the future.
Hold on...his mama called him Stephen ima call him Stephen.
4:57
Ughhhhh .... The silence later is killing man
If curry was a Knicks player the only thing that would have happened would be LeBron getting atleast 5 rings😂😂
Exactly...!!!!!!
The Knicks wouldn’t have been patient because his early years he had ankle problems and you know how the knicks. I’m glad he didn’t play for the Knicks, best pg in basketball and 2nd best pg ever
get over it ain't nothing gonna change it lmao
Knowing the Knicks and their front office incompetence, they would have passed on Curry and he would've wound up on the Raptors.
