    Stephen is just Steven spelt differently. It's not Stepphharrrn

    And if you wanna shorten it you're Steve, not Steph

    Are you kidding me? He's a great role model and father and player and speaker and leader.

    He should just go with ESTEBAN for home games, StePhhan for away games.

    When you've survived the name Wardell your whole life, you can't be trusted to name a son. That's evident.

    I've never heard his pronunciation of Stephen.

    Maybe it's necessary with all the mouthpiece fondling.

    He needs to sign a fat Addidas contract and grind on big booty strippers every other night with Trolli 'diabetes' candy shoved down his mouth all day. That'll make him a more likable and better role model for the children.

    He just needs to fondle his mouthpiece more.

    I'm English. It's only in American English that spelled is the only acceptable spelling. Every other form of English, including the correct one that we use, spelt and spelled are both OK

    I grew up watching AI complain about going to practice, Malice at the Palace, Arenas pulling a gun on a teammate over a gambling debt dispute, Sprewell saying he can't feed his family while making millions and Kobe being accused of sexual assault/cheating on his wife. The NBA has cleaned up its image in the last 10 years thanks to players like Curry. If he is pretentious then ... BFD. He is one of the best players in the world and probably the best shooter of all time. I would be cocky and pretentious too. He is a much better symbol for basketball than some of the star D-Bags and thugs we had in the early/mid 2000s.

    The bulk of the Curry hate comes from his success and he is not relateable/charismatic. No way this thread doesn't get started if the Warriors are 41-41 or if Curry doesn't look like a little punk b**** or if he has Steven Adams facial hair.

    Also, a bit off-topic but oh well, since when did Adams seem to become everyone's favorite player? This guy has been dirty for years and now its forgotten because moustache and he got kicked in the sack.

    Yep, smelt too lol

    Smelt is a common past tense spelling of the verb to smell in British English. But, unlike in American English, smelt and smelled occur with roughly the same frequency in British English.

    2 time MVP, one time unanimous, 1 time champion, lead dog in a record breaking team

    He has earned the right to be pretentious. He backs it up with his play on the court.
