The dude is must see TV. By far the most exciting player in the game and has taken over Kevin Durant as the guy to take the crown from Lebron as best in league.

If he gets back to back MVP and titles it's going to be hard to argue for Lebron as the true #1.

    He just goes to show that the #1 skill in basketball is and always will be the ability to make shots.

    Warriors take the LOADED west then sweep the Heat. Enough said on that.

    Watching him the other night vs. Memphis was insane. He made them look like the Washington Generals.

    That's what i'm saying. He's playing at an entirely different level right now. He may not be the Alpha yet, but the gap is closing quickly. Small stature aside, he might be the most dangerous player in the league.

    If you're captain of a pick up game you pick Lebron 1st, but the team that picks Curry will probably win. He's insane.

    I'm sorry but Curry in a real pick up game would get shut down by any great defender.

    I don't mean this as a put down to Curry but the NBAs rules allow him to be great. All credit to him because everyone plays by the same rules. But if defenders could get into his body on the perimeter, like they would in a pick up game, he wouldn't be that good.

    A couple years ago the Warriors played the Clippers in a playoff series. One of the games came down to a last shot by the Warriors. Chris Paul got all up in Currys jersey because he knew they wouldn't call a foul and Curry barely got a shot off. That would be every possession of a pick up game.

    Chris Paul, for all his faults, can always get a decent shot. Curry can't.

    First, you have no idea what would happen in a pickup game. Purely speculative. Second, so if people can foul then he isn't as dangerous? Really? Third, 2015 Curry > 2013 Curry, rather easily.
