Has Curry overtaken LeBron yet?

Curry does not have same impact as prime Kobe on both sides of the court. I'm not sure why people are putting him in Kobe level when they are both two completely different players. Curry is getting crazy overrated now... Kobe has completely different play style than Curry anyway.

Steph Curry has a way offensive better team surrounding him than when the Lakers won those championships with Kobe. Kobe was a one man wrecking machine in his prime, its too bad most of those years were wasted on those awful mid-2000 Lakers teams.

Sure, but Lebron can't do everything and he'll probably come up short once again. Warriors have too many offensive weapons on their team and they will kill you from all sides of the court.

They're both great players. Curry has had the better season to date, but I could see it going either way by the end of the season. I think the Warriors will have a better record than the Cavs though

In my eyes
Curry = MVP Steve Nash
Westbrook = 81 point Kobe getting passed over for MVP

I'll always root for Westbrook over Curry.

It will be interesting if the Cavs are healthy and meet them in the finals again. They gave them a good run without Irving and Love, and have added Williams and Jefferson. I could see it going either way.

It is hard to compare them. Curry has great scoring ability and distorts the defense like Kobe did. I've not seen anyone draw so much attention since prime Kobe. Curry is a better passer, involves his teammates, and is much more efficient offensively on a game to game basis, so there are things he does better than Kobe. Obviously, he is not as unstoppable, however. He can't just go over the defense. Curry has become a good defender, but he will never be elite, like Kobe could be.

The poster said the next Kobe. That may prove to be true. The bottom line is that Curry will have to play at the level he is now and win more championships to be at Kobe's level of greatness. He may do it. He may not. We will see. In the meantime, he sure is fun to watch.

Curry is a few orders of magnitude better than prime Nash right now. And prime Nash was great.
