Harden2Capela was right, it's the light skin treatment that Curry is receiving from the media and the hate he's getting from his peer. That's why his peer voted for Harden. Ain't no homies going to vote for light skin for MVP "That dude, that light-skinned dude. Ahhhhh, man. I never seen anything like this in my life," Iverson said on Sirius XM NBA Radio. "I was a certified serial killer, but this dude has it all."
He was the best last year too, he is just the best player to come along since Lebron, and maybe one of the best ever. Harden seems doomed to be Drexler to Jordan. DD
Hey now...Drexler was a hell of a player. He was the best 2 guard next to Jordan, nothing to be ashamed about. And he won a title. Plus the "glide" was smooth and fun to watch. No one ever said, "but yea, Drexler wasn't as good as..." other than Jordan. Now you got guys like Butler, Klay, Derozen, talking smack about "I'm the best 2 guard"
Harden is a bland of Ginobili meets Magic Johnson on a bad night meets Dantley or another near great scorer
So, clearly he's the best and MVP back-to-back is inevitable. The crazy thing about his three point shooting is that he has 10+ threes back-to-back, but also 10,11 & 12 threes all in the same month!
he definitely is. when dr naismith put that peach basket on a pole, curry's game is what he envisioned, prolific shooting touch and ball movement. The desire by his teammates to set a screen, the willingness of curry to move around looking for space like the old warriors of Yucatec fighting for the ultimate prize, dominance. . this acid trip is wearing out.
Copied this from /r/nba, Steph is just ridiculous this year. Obviously the MVP again, but could he be Most Improved as well?
Back-to-Back MVP, top scorer of the league, lead his team to best record ever, played only 34 minutes and hit 400 threes (imagine him playing all those 4th quarters). He probably broke a lot of records, tied the 12 threes in a game. Here's how crazy the 400 threes is: This is also just amazing: 50 FG%, 45 3p% and 90 FT% in only 34 minutes a game!! Please let go of your hate for one second and just acknowledge the best player in the league right now.

Haha touche! Curry did play like the best player of the game just like Harden did last year, but Lebron proved he's still #1 and it's a great thing. Still no slouch though
Lebron did the same thing to D Rose in eastern conference finals a few yrs ago. Media was saying he's the mvp and best player in the game and Lebron destroyed him
I think there were lingering effects from the injury but also you can see his lack of athleticism hurts him. Doesn't do enough elsewhere when his shot isn't falling
The Cavs were allowed to be very physical against Curry in the finals. When he was running routes, he was constantly bumped and held. Even during contested 3 point attempts, the defender was allowed to run through him. In the regular season, those would've been defensive fouls. There's no crow to eat when you're talking about a completely different set of rules.
