If i was a player in the NBA, i would go to the same gym and do the same thing Curry is doing. Anyones skills would improve doing that.

If Steph keeps up this level of play, or God forbid improves, he WILL go down as one of the GOATs. Kids born within the past decade will mention his name along with the likes of MJ, Kobe, Lebron, etc. And I can't say that they'd be wrong.
I don't follow... But yeah, Jordan did do it for his career. And if Steph continues throughout the rest of his, he'll be right there.
He's improved from last year showing James what really is an MVP, and James responded by sucking this year.
A huge difference between Curry and Harden is, Curry plays OFF-Ball much much better. He's handling the ball less this year, the touches are going to Green which is why you see him avging like 7 APG. I'd love to see Harden run around the court around off-ball screens trying to get open, but that's probably asking too much of our superstar.
The biggest difference b/t Harden and Curry right here...Curry will beat you using the system they have in place. He can move without the ball and still beat you. Harden is great at what he does, but he's not the catch and shoot type. He will try and beat you one on one.
He's one season off from ankle injuries and people are comparing him to Jordan? Bro, you're gonna have to completely dominate far longer than that...and you're going to have to play some defense too, not just score Its the same trash people said about Kobe and he only has 1 mvp
It's hard for us because the Warriors have good passers at multiple positions. When they can throw Livingston/Curry/AI/Green, thats 4 really good passers on the floor at once. It's hard for other teams to replicate. But can you just imagine Harden rolling off an off-ball screen, someone hitting him with the pass for the catch and shoot, he fakes then drives to the hole before the defense can get set??? instead of Harden dribbling 10 seconds off the clock while the defense gets set and everyone stands around the perimeter for the PNR, that usually ends up in a contested shot or Harden driving hoping to get the foul? Differences are night and day.
I'm pretty sure that's Jordans 11th season.. and this is Curry's 7th season correct? Also, I'm pretty sure Jordan averaged 37ppg throughout that entire season correct? So, Curry has what, 69 more games to see what his average will be? Hmm...
Attempts per game Curry is a sharp shooter for sure, but compare his 3pfg attempts/game it's much higher than anyone else's ever. I'm sure if other great shooters had a team structure that required them to take so many 3's they would increase their ppgs aswell ..,just saying
GS System is tailor made for Curry. Curry is an unbelievable shooter, all he need is space, and that GS system provided that. The amount of great screen (many illegals) they create for him along with a team that will make you paid if you overplayed surround with great shooters is what make Curry unguardable. GS system is for Curry, what a great offensive line is for a running back in football.
I don't know why people keep on saying that Curry gets a great system at GS to thrive. Of course, every team's system is supposed to tailor for their franchise player, at least every good team (FO/coach) would try to create such a system. The fact that GS's offense is transcendent and Houston's sucks is a testament of (1) our FO/coaching sucks for not building a system that tailor to our franchise player, or (2) the kind of system our franchise player needs sucks, or both (1) and (2).
