AgreedAaron Gordon got robbed so bad. This is the sickest dunk of all time in a dunk contest. Leap off TWO feet over the straight up mascot who is no midget by any means, behind the ANKLES (behind the back has been done but behind the ankles?!), finishing with his LEFT hand with force...and I love his reaction, like wind it back, wind it back.

Channing Frye --> Cleveland
Anderson Varejao --> Orlando
I don't care what's being said on ESPN, Channing Frye is not a player who NBA teams should consider.
What do you guys think of the trade deadline today?
Ah damn, got the Magic trade wrong.
Cavs get Frye
Magic get a draft pick from Blazers and Cunningham from the Cavs
Varejao in Rip City
I think that's how it goes...
I must say I'm peed that Varejao was traded for IMO a player that pretty much serves in the NBA as a role player. I don't see him doing well in the NBA at the Cavs unfortunately, I reckon he'll be out at season's end.
just ridiculous!My gawd. Steph with a 32 foot three pointer to win it in overtime!
which begs the question. Is Steph Curry more unguardable than MJ,Kobe or LBJ in their primes? We all know how good those other 3 guys are but with Curry playing 10 feet+ behind the line??My gawd. Steph with a 32 foot three pointer to win it in overtime!
Tough to compare, MJ had more versatility in that he could post, shoot the fadeaway, drive and finish with his height and vertical leap. Curry is straight up the best shooter and dribbler amongst those guys if you are going to make a comparison in those aspects. LBJ is just a freak of nature, can drive hard to the rim and finish with either hand under control, while taking contact but his real strength lies in his all around game, passing and rebounding. Curry is fearless though, I've said it time and time again, but in regards to creating off the dribble and getting into a shot from anywhere, he's the best I've ever witnessed at finishing those off balance shots off the dribble. A lot of these shooters are one dimensional, they'll pop off a screen, catch and shoot. Crowd them and force them to take a dribble and they're off their rhythm and can't make a basket. Curry? Damn. He hoists up more "bad" shots in a game, than Lance Stephenson does in a month but makes most of them.which begs the question. Is Steph Curry more unguardable than MJ,Kobe or LBJ in their primes?

But are they bad shots? For most player they would be but if u make as many of them as he does they are becoming just normal shots. The thing with curry is u have to play him hard anywhere in the front court and its just you defending him. PLayers like MJ, LBJ and Kobe you can funnel them to the teeth of the D. That extra distance Curry has to hurt u from is just killer. I'm a major Kobe and MJ fan but Steph is just crazy. That shooting and those handles = pretty damn close to unguardable.Tough to compare, MJ had more versatility in that he could post, shoot the fadeaway, drive and finish with his height and vertical leap.

Exactly, they are "bad" shots for just about everyone except Steph because he makes most of them. You can live with someone shooting 30 footers because their percentage goes down, but Steph knocks those down like a normal shot. He's completely redefining the game, that's for sure.But are they bad shots? For most player they would be but if u make as many of them as he does they are becoming just normal shots.
