    it's pathetic to think he was voted unanimous. Westbrook is proving he is the real mvp and steven is the fakest mvp in the history of the NBE:mad::mad:

    Curry was on the best team, he had a great season. Deserved the MVP. Unanimous tho? I don't' think so.

    Is Russell Westbrook better than Curry? Yes. He can takeover the game physically. Curry relies on a lot of help and if that shot isn't falling, it's bye bye to his game because he has no major skill that can change the game.

    Lebron / Westbrook are animals.

    Curry has a higher ceiling than Westbrook or LeBron though. That's why he looks inhuman when he hits like 8 or 10 threes. When he's struggling though he does go into passive mode and disappears.

    Its just that we never saw him struggle in the regular season outside of a few games.

    It is very disappointing to see him fall off though. Gives a lot more firepower to those that say he would not be a star in the 90s. And frankly I'm starting to believe that.

    He's a great frontrunner and GSW ran over teams early and just piled it on.

    He never seemed to me to be this horrible when behind, but he never struck me as as good when behind (I don't have any stats to back this up, just my eye test on when I watched him).

    I think that combined with the fact the Thunder are surrounding him with length and Westbrook is forcing him to play some defense when Klay sits is all taking a toll on his shooting.

    He has the best shot ever. I will give him that but a lot goes into the teams success. Besides Robertson, the starting 5 of OKC is physically more athletic and quicker than the Warriors. They are giving more fits to the other guys, Curry can't rely on his shot to win it. It reminds me of Harden... pull up and take 1 shot. I like that this is happening to them, finally they have faced a full strength team & it's' not a cakewalk like last year.

    Great shooter, one of the best. But damn, when the shot's (rarely) off....

    Someone needs to set this section straight. Steven is a fake mvp and needs to be exposed for it

    He didn't deserve anything. He can only chuck up 3's. He doesn't run the offense and he's a pg. Westbrook leads in every catagory on his team. He avg practically a triple double with 20+pts. He deserved it. Stupid comment :mad:

    This series has really opened my eyes about OKC. I don't have any idea how we managed to be competitive and beat them when they are manhandling and out hustling the Warriors like this.

    Curry is a fantastic shooter, but like someone earlier said, his game is so team dependent on getting him those decent looks. it's obvious that he can't do what LeBron, Westbrook or even Harden can do in terms of just taking control of the game when his shot isn't falling.

    Curry is a joke. He looks like a kid out there playing against real men.

    Media is stupid. I hope the Players vote Westbrook for MVP
