?Michael Jordan Is the Consensus?: Stephen Curry?s Unreal Finals MVP Stat Sends NBA Twitter to a Storm

NBA superstar Stephen Curry has been the face of the league for years now. He has been one of the most influential players in recent times, perhaps even in the history of the game. With his ability to make long-range shots effortlessly, teams are now looking to attempt more three-pointers than ever. So far, he has led the Golden State Warriors to four rings in the last eight years. This has cemented the Warriors as a dynasty. With this, Curry is considered one of the best all-time players ever.

Curry and LeBron James have been battling it out in the league for years now. They have faced each other in the NBA finals four times. Curry won thrice while James won once. In recent times, there have been debates about who the better player is among the two superstars. Also, whenever someone displays greatness, there are bound to be compared with all-time great Michael Jordan.

Jordan is arguably the greatest player of all time. His ability to take over a game at a crucial juncture is one of his important traits. The bigger the stage, the better the performance from MJ.

Stephen Curry comes only behind Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan dominated his opponents throughout his career. The man has never lost an NBA finals series. He has played six finals and came out on top all six times. Furthermore, he has never let a finals series go to game 7. Adding to it, in his long and illustrious career, he has only played three game 7s ever. He would kill off his opponents without giving them a glimmer of hope. In title-clinching games, Jordan averages 33.7 points per game which is the most.

Stephen Curry comes in second with 32.5 points per game. NBA legend Hakeem Olajuwon comes in third and LeBron James comes in fourth with an average of 29.5 points per game. Fans are going wild seeing this stat on social media. Here are some reactions:

The fans are divided by this stat. While some showed support for Curry, some were clearly not impressed. Also, superstar Kevin Durant has the same average as James. Interestingly, KD has only played title-clinching games during his stint with the Warriors. This is an implication of the support Curry received.

Furthermore, Durant won the finals MVP on both occasions he won the title with the Warriors. Also, Andre Iguodala won the finals MVP award in 2015. Curry had to bide his time to win the award last season. However, this does not undermine the sharpshooter’s performance in important games. He has been one of the best players in the league ever since his rise and he is still not done yet.
