I might turn the “Let’s Talk About It” part of the title into a series, lmk if y’all want to see that!!
Yes plz
I like it
Good idea
I watched every second of that finals and iguodala held lebron to like 27% beyond 5 feet and 39% overall. it was insane. lebron never shot as many long contested 2s in his career as he did during that series. iggy put the clamps on lebron. he got some nice totals from stat padding. but Andre iguodala was the difference maker that series. it was actually more impressive than kawhis defense on lebron the year prior. iguodala started that series as a 6th man and finished the last 3 games starting because he played out of his mind while curry was underperforming. a lot of people say Rodman was the real 1996 finals mvp and all he did was rebound and play defense. he didn't have huge threes and big games offensively like iggy did at the same time while turning lebron into a brick machine. the cavs actually went up 2 wins to 1 for golden state before inserting iguodala in the starting lineup to defend lebron every single possession. had that not happened i truly believe lebron wins 2 more games and the title. over the last 3 wins iguodala averaged almost 20ppg on 48% fgs and 37% threes with 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. those numbers plus forcing lebron into bad long 2s every other time up the floor is more valuable than 6 more points and 2 more assists. sorry. iggy hit some HUGE clutch threes that series too. he was waaaaaaaay more important in that specific matchup. hence the mvp trophy being awarded to him... dont just look at the overall series averages with 2 losses from iggy being benched most of the game that ruined his numbers. you obviously didn't watch this finals.... sorry dude. youre wrong on this one
www.espn.com/blog/statsinfo/post/_/id/106613/iggy-makes-lebrons-shooting-iffy
"when guarded by andre iguodala in the 2015 nba finals lebron shot 24%". THATS why the warriors won the last 3 games with iggy in the lineup. MVP is an understatement.
With curry off the floor i believe warriors were -15 and with him on it +34. Smh its all cool tho curry gonna keep doing goat things

+52 actually, so even better and yes -15 is correct
Not a Curry fan but, i agree. I kinda feel bad for him, because in the future i know they will be some silly people that will say he was carried.
@Doffy Donquixote KD is not, will not, can not, do what lebron does. I agree that the same can be said for steph
KD couldn't beat lebron without the GSW, cuz he could, he would have done it with the OKC, not saying he aint good enough, also not saying he bad just saying that without help no one can win a team sport, don't make it seem like KD singlehandedly destroyed lebron in the finals
@Doffy Donquixote Lebron is better at finishing at the rim, Lebron is better at playmaking, Lebron is better at setting up an offense and getting others involved, Lebron is a better rebounder, Lebron is more efficient, Lebron is better in transition, Lebron was better defensively in his athletic prime, Lebron is a better leader. KD is more skilled at shooting the ball, Lebron is more skilled at every single other aspect of the game
@@glint6070 Lebron with 1 twisted is better than KD on defense. Other than length, KD has no defense
@Doffy Donquixote he's only "better overall" due to the fact that he had a better team support than lebron in the finals, i mean 4 future hall of famer vs 1 Fhof and 2 allstars, if he can lead the nets to a finals or at the very least conference finals, ill change my mind and ill say he drastically improve from someone who can't lead to someone who can but i won't go as far as saying he better than Bron overall i mean cmon, even normal fans would say Bron better overall like cmon Bron and KD are different, while KD is focused on scoring, bron focuses on facilitating and yet he still can score like a scorer, still bron not goat yet. anyone who isn't a hater or someone whose mind isn't clouded by the social media "a.k.a. skip bayless stupidity against lebron" can say that Bron is a top5 if not top10 overall in NBA history a feat not much can achieve and a feat KD can't achieve, well atleast while bron is playing, KD can't be the best player in the current NBA.
Durant played 2 good games and they gave him MVP, when in reality Steph was balling the whole series in 2018
He played 1 really good game and 3 so so games.
Are y’all crazy? Curry shot 3 for 16 in game 3 while Durant dropped 40 and had a triple double in game 4, Durant averaged 29, 11 and 7 for the series.
Curry was inefficient the entire series only 40 percent.
And y’all think he’s finals MVP🤣🤣
Curry wasn’t even gonna win it over LeBron who also put up better numbers
Bars
@@_1luljayyy Idk if you watched the games, but they would literally double curry over Durant any play😭I like KD more as a player tho don’t get me wrong
@@_1luljayyy the pure idiocy is evident here, whobplayed better for more games in thaf series, Steph, had 1 great game, the most important game in the series as lebron dropped 50, 1 terrible game, and 2 good games, Kd had 1 great game, and 3 so so games
We gotta remember the context to educate the kids in 15 years
I would say he was robbed 2015 & arguably 2018 as well
Why 2018
He wasn't even 2nd in the race if iggy didn't get it lebron would have
@@youtookthebait4880 lebron still average 36 and 40% that series but ok, "iggy lockdown lebron"
@@youtookthebait4880 that's exactly the reason why Iggy won the fmvp. Those who would have voted for Steph voted for Iggy instead just so Lebron wouldnt win the award. It's just stupid to vote anyone from the losing team to win the award, if youd ask me. How can you be "most valuable" if you lose the series?
@@erwinbadiola9860 Because he was the 'most valuable' player on the court. If you swapped Iggy for Lebron the series wouldn't even be close, thus Lebron was the most valuable. I think the term 'most valuable player' is deceiving, a new name should perhaps be conceived that fits the bill of 'player on the winning team who had the best series.'
Iggy only got it just because he guarded LeBron lol

Even though I'm not mad that Iggy got it I think we can all admit it should have been Steph, and I don't think this lack of a finals mvp should hurt his all time ranking because we all know what he did. PS I like your vids and started making NBA videos too😬
totally agree man btw great content
Just became ur 200th sub
@@YungMustard OMG thank you so much man I've been watching your channel for a long time.
@@YungMustard look at yung mustard man so inspirational
It sucks though, cuz no fmvp will be brought up when discussing stephs legacy.
Call it for what it is. They didn’t give Curry the mvp because of Lebron legacy. They can say “Iggy won the mvp because of guarding Lebron” to make Lebron look greater. That’s literally the only reason.
Not only did Iggy do an amazing guarding LeBron, his numbers were very solid and he came clutch in crucial moments. Also, once they rolled out the Death Lineup, the Cavs really had no answer for it.
@@urbaindelva7869 shut the fuck up. That’s any role player in any series idiot.
@@urbaindelva7869thats no excuse. Curry was just the better player. Not only in the finals, the whole playoffs, and he literally won the regular season mvp. The NBA knew they couldnt let someone overthrow lebron.
He got robbed in 2018 as well but yall not really for that discussion
THEY NOT
No he didn’t Lmaoo you people seem to just look at stats and not watch the games. He had a bad game 3 which drastically lowered his chances at the FMVP, while KD had a 20 point triple double, KD didn’t had one bad game that series.
I don’t think he should have got it
He wasn’t robbed in 2018. Y’all boys ain’t ready for that discussion yet. Just like AD playing bad in game 3 which eliminated him from MVP over LeBron, same thing for Steph.
Durant carried in game 3 and Steph shot awful for that entire series.
He was only robbed in 2015 that’s it.
abudu saaka Nice try though. I can tell your an optimistic person and just so confident but don’t look at details. Outside of game 1, Durant was more dominant than Curry. He had 11 points in game while Durant scored 40
Not robbed, Durant led the warriors he was easily Finals MVP both years
Curry wasn’t even the 2nd best player that series it was LeBron and I can argue Klay was better than Curry for at least 1 game
I hope he becomes FMVP at some point in his career
2022
Honestly Steph should've had at least 1 Finals MVP
It happened!
Iggy didn’t even rlly guard lebron good 😭
I mean he shot 40 percent but LeBron still averaged 36😂😂
Kinda like in 2014 with Kawhi
40% is decent but not at all lebron
@@_1luljayyy kawhi did not guard lebron that well at all lebron averaged almost 30 on 55% from the field
@@averagesixersfan9778 it's not particularly due to iggy. Lebron was not shooting well that series. Apart from 1st game he didn't shoot a single game above 45%. Game 1 47%, game 2 31%, game 3 41%, game 4 31%, game 5 44%, game 6 39%. I think it has more to do with kyrie injury.
the double standard for curry lack of a fmvp in 2015 and kawhii being gifted it in 2014 is disgusting. im not even sure kawhii deserved in 2019.
Casual u know nothing about basketball
Steph has a legacy similar to Kobe right now. A clear all time great talent, playing with an even more dominant player for most of his championships. Even if he was rightfully given the 2015 finals MVP, he'd have 1 finals MVP to show for his 3 wins. I'd like to see him change that in the next few seasons, but his championship window won't be open for too much longer.
So true, can't believe i never thought about this too. His next 2-3 years will probably be Kobe's 09 and '10 season
This didnt age well
@@jamesmarbibi3850 How so?
@@Zuri_SM warriors are on their way to cop that next 💍
@@jamesmarbibi3850 what part of my comment contradicts that?
As someone who watched this series I will say that Igoudala only won FMVP because of the narrative, the Cavs lost Irving in game 1 after having already lost Kevin Love in the Boston series, the warriors won game 1 and the expectation was for the Warriors to sweep the Cavs and anything else was a disappointment, they’re offense was leagues above the Cavs so the warriors defense would dictate the series, then the Cavs bounced back and won the next 2 and got a 2-1 lead couple that with Curry’s bad game 2 and it wasn’t looking good, another forgotten fact is that Igoudala didn’t start until game 4 and before that LeBron was putting up an average of 41 points on 40% shooting but as soon as Igoudala started the series turned around and the cavs didn’t get close to winning another game besides game 6 which was a 8 point spread and Lebron averaged 31 points on 38% shooting so his averages very clearly dropped after game 3 and he also shot 33% while Igoudala was his main defender, a significant drop off, like I said I believe Curry deserved it but a lot of the NBA awards are driven by narrative and that’s why Igoudala won it he had a good case whether anyone wants to admit it or not 🤷♂️
But he didn't so cry about it bitch
No way iggy won that fmvp over steph no way....
I like the way you broke that down, very insightful and well thought out. Kudos.
Steph didn’t receive a single vote for FMVP this year. He averaged the same amount of points that Dirk did in 2011.
Yes

@@ryanton3572 you are supposed to say woof
People forget how much curry was getting doubled teamed vs Toronto.they all called him washed without even watching the games. he tried his best even with the constant double teaming.
@Cameron Belanger fr, but all they'll comment on is his missed shot in game 6.
This is why I got so mad that steph didn't get it in 2018 because seph deserved it not discrediting KD performance but steph was the best player on the warriors 3 out of 4 games yes kd went off and hit a dagger 3 in game 3 but that wasn't the biggest game of the series game 1 was when lebron scored the go ahead bucket with 20 sec left in the 4th steph got the ball and drove to the rack for the and 1 and made the ft to go up 1 before that JR Smith situation happened and game 2 hit hit 9 3s which set a NBA finals record and game 4 had 37 points
I don't think the final MVP mean anything. You have 11 picking who will become MVP. And lot of them don't like Steph.
Curry = 🐐
This has been seven years now and I'm still upset over this selection. No way on this earth did I think Iggy should have ever won that award. Yes he played good defense against LeBron but Steph went out every night putting up great scoring numbers. When KD came to the team they both were putting up fantastic numbers but KD is a different kind of beast all together and he stole the Thunder and Lightening from Steph but He/KD wouldn't have won those titles without Steph. I think KD knew that the warriors was Steph Curry's team he didn't want to continue preventing Steph from winning A Finals MVP so he left. Steph gets his chance starting tonight to win the only thing not in his trophy case. Best of luck warriors and I can't end this without saying... "Warriors come out and plaaay"
even if he played “good defense” on lebron, bron still average 34 points….the defense narrative is idiotic
Plain old disrespectful, like seriously?!?!? Iggy over Curry?!?!? I hate the NBA for this
BTW: I'm a huge LeBron fan
Immaculate CAP 😂
@@whattotranslate4089 lebron averaged a 35 trip dub💀 yeah, he shot 40%, but it's only cause he didn't have any other star around him
He didn’t play in 19 fourth quarters. He would’ve averaged 35 that season if his gravity wasn’t so dominant
There's also the notion that the team only started winning when Andre became a starter, like.... No, they had already won game 1, Steph was just awful in games 2 and 3 while Klay didn't precisely show up either, as a matter of fact, Andre was the 2nd leading scorer with 17.2 ppg iirc
Yea finally somebody is talking about it
This Aged well Curry won 2021-2022 season FMVP
Warriors were down 2-1. After iggy started they won cut the deficit and won. Dumbass media didnt realize that they moved him to start so draymond could play the small ball 5. So if anything it wasnt iggy who turned it around it was really draymond. The media was so hyped up about iggy’s stat increase and sudden winning streak when he started that they gave him the finals mvp. Steph shouldve won it easily. Was the most clutch player on the floor by far as well.
Thank you!!! Finally someone who gets it. Iggy can’t start if Dray can’t handle playing the small ball 5. It was the beginning of a new era that took the league by storm the next season.
He finally won a FMVP dude
How can you win something that’s out of your control you play great and the best on your team it’s out of his control the media don’t like a small guy dominating
Thanks for the excellent video, hes my favorate too along with Dr. J and Gus Williams.
Curry Changed the Game of Basketball, is the undisputed G.O.A.T Shooter, 2x MVP (the only with a unanimous MVP), leader of G.O.A.T Regular season team (73-9), and a 3x champion. Those solidify his legacy as one of the top 15 players of all time. The lack of FMVP does hurt him a little bit but the aforementioned accomplishments more than makeup for that. If he wins another chip with a FMVP, now we are talking maybe cracking the top 10 players of all time.
Im so early it says that there's 4 comments when there are only 2
That just shows you how good Lebron was and is, the guy who mediocrely guarded him won the Finals MVP
Pffft 🤭
Um, lebron shot 40 percent against him and they literally showed a chart of people lebron struggled against and demarre Carroll iggy were on there

100k on the way bro we on top soon💯🤝
the entire voting for fmvp in 2015 was dumb anyway. iggy getting it bcs he won and guarded lebron is like saying Mat deserved it for his defense on steph if cavs won, if that had happened a lot pf people would say lebron was robbed which obviously would have been true. they bring up this fmvp bullshit cause they hate steph for reasons i can never understand. in my eyes steph doesnt need a fmvp and i also think in the 3 finals that he won he should have always gotten th fmvp. with steph out an durant on the floor warriors are worse, they dont even need kd when steph is on the court. i have always seen steph better than kd
Stephen curry is top 5 in offense and top 20 in defense Andre iguodala is top 10 in defense and not even top 50 on offense how does Steph not deserve the 2015 fmvp
I watched every second of that finals and iguodala held lebron to like 27% beyond 5 feet and 39% overall. it was insane. lebron never shot as many long contested 2s in his career as he did during that series. iggy put the clamps on lebron. he got some nice totals from stat padding. but Andre iguodala was the difference maker that series. it was actually more impressive than kawhis defense on lebron the year prior. iguodala started that series as a 6th man and finished the last 3 games starting because he played out of his mind while curry was underperforming. a lot of people say Rodman was the real 1996 finals mvp and all he did was rebound and play defense. he didn't have huge threes and big games offensively like iggy did at the same time while turning lebron into a brick machine. the cavs actually went up 2 wins to 1 for golden state before inserting iguodala in the starting lineup to defend lebron every single possession. had that not happened i truly believe lebron wins 2 more games and the title. over the last 3 wins iguodala averaged almost 20ppg on 48% fgs and 37% threes with 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. those numbers plus forcing lebron into bad long 2s every other time up the floor is more valuable than 6 more points and 2 more assists. sorry. iggy hit some HUGE clutch threes that series too. he was waaaaaaaay more important in that specific matchup. hence the mvp trophy being awarded to him... dont just look at the overall series averages with 2 losses from iggy being benched most of the game that ruined his numbers. you obviously didn't watch this finals
www.espn.com/blog/statsinfo/post/_/id/106613/iggy-makes-lebrons-shooting-iffy
"when guarded by andre iguodala in the 2015 nba finals lebron shot 24%". THATS why the warriors won the last 3 games with iggy in the lineup. MVP is an understatement.
Yeh iggy isn’t the first rotation player to have a great finals,look at Jason terry literally did what iggy did in 11 better advance stats than Dirk but who got fmvp?dirk.down 2-1 Curry went on the bar 28 and 7.Game 5 was a pivotal game and Curry 37 should have closed out the fmvp discussion.The warrior were -11 when Curry wasn’t on the court.
@@loosenup8152 Terry didn't force lebron into.shooting 24% while defending him and forcing him into highly contested long 2s cause every time he drove he'd get stripped. Terry didn't make lebron look silly. lebron made himself look silly by quitting in 2011. his efficiency was actually good vs the mavericks. he just refused to.contribute because he was either scared or was sabotaging wades impending finals mvp. iguodalas complete game.on both ends of the court is why he got finals mvp over curry
@@kennethgriffin7921 By that same logic then fred vanfleet should have won finals MVP over Kawhi, he was started off coming off the bench and then played more minutes because he was guarding Steph while hitting big shots. Steph's 2015 numbers were similar to Kawhi's 2019 as were Fred's compared to Iggy, but whatever, it's not media darling LeBron so same logic cant apply.
@@shottakidd2 kawhi didn't underperform in the finals to let someone steal the award like curry did in 2015. vanvleet only had 1 big game in the clincher. iggy had 3 in the final 3 wins. curry shot 42% but hit a ton of threes and free throws so his point per shot was actually great.. 1.43 which is actually right up there with some of the greatest ever. so curry was solid. he wasn't shut down like lebron was by iguodala hitting just 24% fgs against him. his point per shot wasn't great either at 1.09 which is on par with post Achilles rupture kobe and rookie lebron efficiency. come on man.. dont even test me
Thats an x factor, not an fmvp, warriors arent going no where vice versa using your logic, taking curry off the team and having iguodala on.
While i do think he got robbed in 2015 he kinda did himself a disfavor by allowing kd who was motivated to join up and durant just had the consistency and better stats than curry
KD had better stats and efficiency due to curry's gravity it makes things a ton easier when youre the best player in the world and teams cant even double team you
@@bilzkhan3029 He still posted better stats in 2018, and KD put up an all time performance when it was needed most and Curry shot 3-20, therefore ruining his chances. Everybody stunk it up except KD, preventing the Cavs from stealing a game.

@@daonlygoat but curry carried them in game 1 and hit the shot to send it to overtime. Game 1 was the most important game of that series because it killed any hope that the cavs might have had a chance. it was the game that had lebron sitting on the end of the bench away from his teammates. also the game where he punched the wall i believe
I won’t let the disrespect of Steph happen, I will always stand by Steph and I always will let ppl know how great Steph is and his legacy is locked regardless if he never gets a FMVP. Which in my opinion the FMVP is ALITTLEEE overrated. But that’s my PG FOREVER💛 #DUBNATIONSTANDUP💙

It matters to people who try to hold it against his legacy. I understand he will go down as an all time great but for some reason it matters to haters even though it’s clear he was the best player and deserved the award
Finals mvp does matter...every legend has at least one or more to be considered a great.
Preach bro
Well he has one now and will get another……book it!
It was solely because of Lebron bias that he lost. Iggy was his primary defender, and they decided to pick one of those two, instead of the best player on the winning team. It was ridiculous then, and it’s still ridiculous now
Great video
Honestly I’m ok with Iguodala winning it, they both deserved it imo
Keep up the Goated content
I'd like it if both of them could have won finals mvp that playoff run.
I don't know how they could have gotten this wrong.
People say he wasn’t robbed from being finals mvp because iggy played good defense against him
Played good defense against lebron
lol and lebron still averaged 35.8 ppg
This was such a disgrace. Lebron should only have 2 FMVP and Jordan only 4 if this is how they want to select a FMVP.
Who outperformed LeBron in any of his FMVPs?
Curry might win his first fmvp in 2022

im shocked you think he wont win FMVP... from what i have been seeing from the Warriors long off season they are built to win this season NBA finals.. and for people saying Clipper, Lakers, Mavs or Nuggets than you havent really kept track of Warriors have accomplished this off season...
1. they opened their cap space
2. they used it to host 3 starting players with career averages over 19 points in Klay, Curry and Wiggins
3. they gave their rookies and bench players a near season of being starter experience
4. they got a good draft pick they will trade down and get the player positions they need for cheap or draft high to get a future top player who still make a big enough impact on the court
5. they have seen what they need to fix.
6. they know how beat the whole West with only Lakers maybe having a good enough team challenge them... people talk size but when has that ever stopped the Warriors with Steph from beating those teams?
i can say with complete assurance that the Warriors will be the 2021 NBA final winner barring injuries from their starters...
don't forget the injuried Heats took the Lakers to 6 games and one those they didnt have 2 of their starters..
Agree steph deserved 1 out of the 3
While I feel bad for him, he only had himself to blame tbh. Getting locked up by Delly in game 2 & being bad through quarters 1/2/3 of game 3 (was great in the 4th quarter of that game) is what cost him the award unfortunately. He should’ve gotten it for his games 1 & 4-6 performances IMHO but I guess voters couldn’t overlook those other two games. He’s still great without one regardless, but he really should’ve had 1 out of those 3 titles
Iggy is the greatest player of all time the whole Golden State team got carried to 3 chips thanks to him 😤
You sleep on the true Goat open your 9th eye

Straight facts bro 💯
I swear if I was the one who picked finals MVP for the warriors
*I WANT IGUODALA*
So true👍 Steph Curry was robbed by his final MVP on 2015.
FACTS
It's almost like basketball is played on both sides on the floor.

Yes, but Max Kellerman wants iguodala! 😂
This is the crazy thing in the finals where Kobe won finals MVP with Ron Artest on his team Kobe shot terrible in that series and Ron Artest played good defense on Paul Pierce and averaged 15 points a game but it was a no brainer Kobe was MVP but Steph gets snubbed its ridiculous
Problem is Curry was never really head and shoulders above therest of his teammates, he was never the most important player for them in any of his Finals appearances. Had they won in '16, Draymond would've been MVP, had they won last year with Durant injured, it would've been Klay. He wasn't the guy putting them over the top, like every other FMVP in history. Kawhi's FMVP last year was nearly the same, except Toronto had a revolving doors of guys being the player of the game every game, while Kawhi was the one steady one...so he got it by default.
@@arrownoir how can you say that when the warriors' system literally revolves around Curry?
People keep saying that because of Iggy gsw won the finals as he locked up LeBron if you take out Iggy gsw loses the finals but you forget if you took out curry they would have got swept by the cavs
(Like both curry and iggy)
I remember when Iggy got that mvp, and i was a little bit surprised. But if you look backwards from game one of the series he was the most consistent member of the team both in the defensive and offensive side. He's was not the best or the greatest, but he was the veteran of that team, left after a All star nine years at the 76ers for Denver. And then for Golden State, he EARNED his place for Kerr at that playoff series.
But looking at the stats, it looks you played against Curry! So i went to basketball-reference. Iggy beats Curry, in that series in: True Shooting, Efficiency, Def. Reb.%, turnovers%(that was obvious), Off. Rating and Def. Rating, Field goal% and 3P%.
He also was the second or third best in (If curry's not the first it will be noted): points (2nd), minutes (3rd), total rebounds (tied 2nd with Barnes, Behind Green), asts (3rd) and Field Goals (2nd).
He was also guarding Lebron James! Having a better Def. Rating than Curry. Lebron off% were: 39%FG(43% v. Hawks), 30%3pt(23% v. Hawks). 21 turnovers (15 v. Hawks).
He shot +50% for the Series, being the 2nd highest scorer on the team, also being the third in assists, 3rd best from the starting line in defensive rating and in rebounds. He was all-around.
But, it amazes me how people under value Curry too. How does that man doesnt have a single finals mvp
He didn’t play the first 3 games
i know this comment is like 2 years old but i disagree with the stats because bro didnt even play the whole series...its like saying curry should win mvp because he had 3 games out of 82 where he had 50 points it doesnt make sense. and even that the field goal stat and the three point stat is irrelevant. Iggy is not the first option on a finals team bruh it makes sense that steph takes the majority of the shots gsw offense was even struggling klay was garbage thats why iggy was 2nd in scoring.
Not a Stephen Curry fan but he definitely should've won finals MVP over Iggy but not mad with the NBA for that.
2015.. the year FMVP became a thing cause of steph curry
If thats the logic and cavs wins, matthew dellavedova will be fmvp cuz he guard curry lol
Prolly same voters who got pat bev on all defensive second team
I think curry will win final mvp next year
Steph best point guard in history, change my mind
Magic made 9 finals in his 12 year career. won the chip 5 times.3 FMVP 3 MVP greatest passer ever... steph is #2
@@EPIGIBSONPHONE LOL, you know you cant change my mind right? no matter how much people debate minds dont change, If I made a case for curry against Magic you would still pick Magic thats just how it is so Im not going to debate, But yes your case for Magic is good and I can see why you think Magic is better
As a Curry Fan, We can't say yet, because his career is not over yet I agree right now he is 2 or 3, but if he wins another ring he can be the greatest Point Guard of all time.
@@israelgarcia7263 bro im not tryin to change your mind lmao you can think ricky rubio is the goat for all i care haha
@@israelgarcia7263 bro you literally said “change my mind”
Lebron goated
What’s not debatable is the fact that he’s had 4 other opportunities on the biggest stage as the best “3 point” shooter ever to stand out. And he’s just came up short each time in that regard
he wasnt robbed by Iggy but the media and voters... Iggy even said that FMVP was Steph's but what can he do... not accept the award lol... those guys voters for Lebron and he lost that final
real finals mvp curry respect
Steph should've won Finals MVP in 2018 imo. He played better than KD in Games 1 and 2 and they were both amazing in Game 4. Nonetheless, I think you're taking this too seriously.
why do the Warriors sound like the Chiefs
I agree 100% with you.
He was cheated because Bill Russel is judging him by L eBron, Russel and other players larger than Steph...plus he probably don't like Steph....
No he wasn’t.
Wait I thought victor oladipo was your favorite player
"Curry was robbed in 2018" yall clearly dont know what robbed means. Even if you think he deserved it over KD he sure as hell wasnt robbed
Game 1 curry Game 2 curry Game 3 kd Game 4 curry HE HAD ONE BAD GAME
@@Idontevenknow4t- and KD had 0 bad games
@@MikeTheNBAGuy yeah but in three of those games curry played better so
@@Idontevenknow4t- and in one of them he was straight ass. being slightly better in 3 games and really bad in 1 is not as helpful as being very good in all 4 games
@@MikeTheNBAGuy yeah but when you play better than somebody in 3 games and play worse somebody in 1 GAME it doesn’t matter you still played the better overall series I don’t want to hear it
Hot take: if Love and Irving was healthy then cavs win. Cavs would win back to bakr then durant would still go to gsw. Then would win back to back, then durant would be seen as the hero not a snake.
Durants 2 rings would mean more and durant wohld replace bron as the best player (for the 2 years).
I am a bron fan by the way and i believe that bron would be second best by carrying a 15 win team cavs ( if he wasnt there ).
This point should me made more mainstream. Please notice
Umm... if we're playing on hypotheticals then steph should be healthy in 2016 and win the finals, go on to become more dominant cuz he wasnt really in his prime yet.
2015 was arguable the win for cavs, and 2016 was a def win for gsw if curry wasnt injured.
look at curry man
I feel like everyone agrees it should of went to Steph or Bron
Curry more accomplished but KD better because be bigger to me
KD better than steph
I thought you Victor Oladipo was your favorite player.
All thanks to NIKE
You don't even know what hate is until you're a LeBron fan.
Should Curry have won the fMVP? yes. Was he ROBBED tho? no
LeBron has 4.6b rings
CE-84 not born yet
