Anyone else think Steph wasn't as hurt as they say he was?

No it was probably just that extra time between games 2 and 3.

Me. My wife said there is no way his injury was as serious as they said and him not even be trying to protect the knee, while cutting like he was. She doesn't watch sports but I was explaining his injury and what they said and she laughed and said no.SportsAndLady;1795342 wrote:Anyone else think Steph wasn't as hurt as they say he was?

I don't remember his injury ever being recognized as that serious. They definitely had the luxury of not having to rush him back.

Yeah above Jordan, no chance. Not even above Lebron or Kobe in my opinion.Midstate01;1795320 wrote:Twitter blowing up with people saying curry better than Jordan. It's so asinine that I literally get pissed off having to argue it. The dude is 28.. has glass ankles and has 1 title. He can't even Guard his own position. Wtf

He will probably finish in the top 10 all time greats at the end of his career however.

Grade 1 mcl sprain. Not SERIOUS, but just more likely it really wasn't a grade 1. Probably less than that. She said when they diagnose someone with an mcl sprain, they could be good to go in 2 weeks. Not uncommon, what is uncommon is to not have any added support at all on the knee. The fact he wasn't wearing any kid of brace was interesting. Probably just likely that he had less than an actual grade 1 mcl sprain.friendfromlowry;1795353 wrote:I don't remember his injury ever being recognized as that serious.

I don't think he was faking or anything like that. Just think it probably wasn't even as minor as they said it was.

Well, I and many others, were wrong.
Steph is the unanimous MVP.

The next question I want to add is:
Is Lebron done winning MVPs?

got in this twitter argument yesterday, so ill bring it here.
This dude was trying to tell me Houston wasn't the worst team in the playoffs.
His argument was that they had 2 superstars. He still believes Howard is a superstar.
I told him he wasn't even the best center on an 8 seed... and he laughed and said howard is 3x the player drummond is?
I think thats absurd and I'd take drummond every single day. Howard is not only not a good player, but a cancer.
Is this just me, or is this guy just a moron?

oh and later he also used GS beating cleveland in this regular season against me.. So when I told him that ATL and DET both went 2-0 vs the GS playoff opponents in this playoff, then he told me that REG season doesn't matter..
The argument that the east is trash is stupid. People are carrying over an argument that is from years past. The top 3 in the west was really good, after that though, there is nothing there. The gap just isn't the same. And even OKC at the 3 was only 18-12 vs the east.

MVPs should have some semblance of talent on the defensive side as well....wildcats20;1795391 wrote:His 3rd place vote came from Houston's play-by-play guy.

They weren't the worst... Grizzles were definitely the worst but I mean all their stars/best players were injured lol. Now everything else that guy said was stupid but I don't believe his original statement to be incorrect.Midstate01;1795390 wrote:got in this twitter argument yesterday, so ill bring it here.

Im not sure Drummond is 3x that of Howard. Howard has an offensive game. Sure he doesn't seem to care, but how could anyone when you're on a team with Harden and get 7 shots a game???Iliketurtles;1795400 wrote:They weren't the worst...
