Ugh. Steve Nash. Worst MVP winner in NBA history.

LOL at judging someone's career when they are 27.

I'm not ready to call Curry one of the best point guards ever yet either, but I think you're underrating his first few years in the league.

He averaged 18 points, 6 assists, 4.5 boards, and 2 steals a game in his first and second seasons on shitty teams. He had ankle problems during his third season. He's been right around 23+ points, 7 assists, 4 boards, and 1.5-2 steals a game since. He's never shot worst than 42.5 percent from 3 and he's never made less than 2 per game.

For comparison purposes Chris Paul's numbers his first three seasons were around 18 points a game, 4 boards, 9 assists, and 2 steals per game.

Considering Curry didn't even play point guard until his last college season I would say he started off alright.

This year I've been streaming Spurs game online, but listening to the radio broadcast from SA. Do anyone else do that?

Luckily, SA's WOAI has a 50,000-watt transmitter and it comes in crystal clear after sunset in PHX.

I've always had a hard time following what is going during a radio broadcast of basketball.

Thibs era Bulls absolutely would upset this warriors team. I just hope Opie can guide the ship to a respectable loss tonight.

Rose came out hot....Opie puts him on the bench 6 minutes in for the Eatone Moore experience. Bulls are going to get killed if the game continues at this pace anyway.

His jump shot also looks funny.
