We hate how players are all so friendly these days, and we want them to hate each other. Then when a player does something like this, we hate on the player for not being nicer to his opponent.

MSB gonna MSB.

All true so I’m not gonna hate on Paul for this move. But he is a bitch. Just not for this

I’m all for more genuine hate in the NBA

Paul used to have the other team’s best player to his house for dinner the night before the game when he played in NOLA. Drove me batshit.

Kick him off your home court and call him names. I love it.

Paul is my most despised player in the league, but I don’t mind this.

And then Curry kicked Paul out of the playoffs, on Paul's homecourt.

The strat worked, Curry had 0 points in first half and Rockets lost this game from poor play

Uh he had foul trouble in the first half and absolutely lit them up in the second half, particularly the fourth quarter.

Who said anything about LeBron scoring or not scoring? I am talking about winning and that the difference between those guys /generation and the current one. The Celtics would have let LeBron score at will , much like they did a young MJ. They would have locked down everyone else and physically beat on them. Lakers, similar except they would have had physically challenged him every time he came into the lane. Pistons would have assigned Rodman to him. I assure you if there is anyone in the history of the league that could check Lebron , it’s Rodman. He had the size, speed, strength and length to do it. Plus , he would have aggravated Lebron all night every night. If he made it to the lane , Mahorn and Lambier would have physically challenged every attempt. Bulls, depends on the group. Group of first three , Scottie with Ho Grant physically challenging him at the rim. Group of second 3, Rodman. No of the current players has the mental. Toughness to play through a truly physical 7 game series. Go watch those old games and observe the contact that was NOT called a foul. Harden bitches about post shot contact or lower body contact not being called.

They didn’t and wouldn’t and like Curry won championships

CP3 did and once again is a total joke sitting at home

Should tell you something about what he did.

CP3 was more concerned with GSW and trying to play mind games. Curry was more concerned about improving his game. There is a reason champions don’t resort to cheap tactics like that.

I don’t have a problem with CP trying to get in Stephs head or “protect his home court” or whatever, but if you pull that move you have to win the fricking game. Otherwise it looks like a bitch move.

I have a. Issue with it in that it was in that it was absolute stupid. CBS nailed my thoughts perfectly

quote:

There are just some giants you don't wake up when they're in a basketball slumber, and Steph Curry is one of them. Dude was in the middle of the worst shooting stretch of his career. Sure, he had a little run at the end of Game 5, but all in all this guy was sleeping on the job. And Paul just walks up to him and pokes him with a pointy stick? Seriously? You thought it was a good idea to stoke the fire of one of the fieriest competitors in the world?

Compelling responses.

Would you care to provide an actual response proving me wrong or just sticking to insults because you have nothing.

End of the day CP3 is sitting at home proving it was a stupid move.

Glad I have a fan though

And ProfFrink is a Simpsons character
