Does Steph Curry Justify Greater Than an 99 Overall Rating?

11:47 AM - May 10, 2016 by RaychelSnr

Steph Curry had a heck of a night last night.

Not only did he score the most points in an OT effort ever (17), but he also single handedly took a playoff game over and delivered a big W for Golden State -- putting the Warriors up three games to one and certainly clinching their ticket onwards.

Quote:


	"Perhaps the best way summarize Curry's performance on Monday is with this stat: Curry missed his first nine 3-pointers and later scored 17 points in overtime -- an NBA record."

Curry can catch fire like few players in the history of the game, and when he does -- it almost seems like he may actually encapsulate what it may look like to see a player with skills beyond what we typically see.

With that in mind, are Curry's attributes (especially his offensive attributes) properly captured in NBA 2K16? Do you think that Curry should be considered for something higher than a 99 overall rating?

Which has what to do with his teammates accountability?

	2. Really? He had multiple ankle sprains and even a knee sprain in the 97 season. He also took over an NBA finals game WITH THE FLU.

You do realize "THE FLU" and "PHYSICAL INJURY" are not the same thing right

Penny and Shaq never beat Jordan in the playoffs... They DID beat the Bulls while MJ was off looking for new side pieces on the baseball circuit. Besides that, Jordan and the Bulls were the ones who knocked off the Bad Boys in the early 90's to start their own run. MJ got beat the eff up, but he still came out on top. I can't stand the man, but he was the man. Unfortunately.

I'm done with this, there's no reasoning with these guys, honestly if you want to think Curry is on Jordan's level go ahead. If you want to use Curry's "injury" as an excuse for the Warriors being knocked out before seeing the finals be my guest.

All credit to Curry, this is a season we will not soon forget, but don't be blinded because you look really dumb doing it.

Later

You do realize the Thunder haven't won yet, right?

They did beat Jordan 4-2 in 1994-1995 conference semifinals, he wasn't off playing baseball cause he was 45 and somebody on the magic said 45 Jordan ain't 23 Jordan so next game he switched to 23. The next year he came back and swept them 4-0 in conference finals

The last 10-15 posts have had nothing to do with 2K.

Use the NBA forum to discuss the WCF...otherwise, keep this about the video game.

No matter what, this thread will dissolve into real life basketball discussion. In a thread asking if Curry deserves more than a 99 overall, the real life Jordan discussions are going to come into play. It's the nature of this topic.

If you guys want those topics to not be discussed, this thread shouldn't be open.
