Yao Siabi you the real mvp

Yao Siabi I alos see him blowing a 3-1 lead. Dont know why

LeMagic James L asf

Hindsight is 20/20.

Flynn was actually good one year

Charisma313 Too True LOL! Stephen Curry's been my favorite player to watch since he bursted out on the NCAA tournament scene back in 08. I remember thinking, "I'm seeing a lot of Steve Nash in this kid's game. I hope he has a chance to play in the league and get an opportunity." It's amazing to me that he's actually where I hoped he'd be. As for Johnny Flynn, he was never better than Curry. Too many people tend to get sidetracked by athleticism. If you're young and you have it, your flaws get overlooked. If you're young and you don't have it, you have "limited upside". LOL It's always fun coming back to these kinds of videos.

I know right lol

He's one of those players that was never the same after the surgery.

Fo sure

I'd didn't think he'd be where he is now either. Now that his handle is crazy and he can play defense, he's unstoppable.

He is a so so defender at best so you got that right.

+Philip Callado me either i honestly didnt think curry would be an elite player at all i saw him as a great college player but i just didnt see him transitioning well in the nba

+HTOWNBEATDOWN420 he's actually a good defender lmaoooo

It’s really insane to look back at this

Jonny Flynn and Ricky Rubio. Lmao.

David Kahn will never be a General Manager ever again! LOL

Ouch. But then we (golden state) wouldn't have rings to look forward to.

That is the worst part of it. It is not like they passed on him for players that have been healthy and successful, they passed on him for Rubio and Flynn.

Well its part he history

holy shit u da OG

djchuckdeez this is refreshing

djchuckdeez damn

That's the same year Ellis was drafted so it wasn't that bad lol

+J.T. Roberts How were people wrong? They predicted his draft position within a few places, they all gave his massive props to his shooting game, they said he might have trouble adapting to the NBA speed, which he worked hard to improve after his NBA selection.

Hindsight

Nobody not even curry predicted he’d be this good. MVP.

J.T. Roberts same

Because Curry hides behind his teammates AKA Draymond who plays the point more than 50% of the time, and other players like Iguodala (2015 finals mvp) who can carry a point guard's load as well. Curry is just a good scoring point guard in a very well built team that can distribute the workload as a team, unlike other teams that their stars have to carry them. Curry won't even be as good if he plays in a different team. Just look at the all-star games for example. Curry never excels playing with other teammates so far

Random Dj 98? he's a 95. LeGoat is 97

Best shooter of ALL TIME.. No one has manipulated the dimensions of the court like Curry has. He's pushed at limits that most in the game never thought would be possible.

He was an 80 in 2k11

change "This era" to "all time"

you misspelled "of all time". going down as #1 pg of all time when he retires with at least 3 rings too. People that say Magic are hilarious 😂 did they watch ball in the 80s?

And yet, isn't the best player on his team.

Andrew Jones word

Andrew Jones yet he’s their most important player

Andrew Jones Yea he's the most valuable

Andrew Jones Not the best but the most integral. If Curry goes down, the Warriors aren't the Warriors anymore. Do gives his teammates so much space cause he's deadly after crossing halfcourt

+Kevin Ehsani Because they had their volume shooter in Monta already and the Knicks were too retarded to trade up for the pick

+Kevin Ehsani because no one thought the twolves with 2 picks In the top 6 would pick 2 point guards over Steph that GM better had been fired

Joshua Green Ronnie is right tho. The only reason the Warriors got him is because Minnesota chose 2 point guards before him. the Warriors needed a guard so they went with him

Ronnie Alston the GM was David Kahn,who is probably the worst GM in NBA history.

GamingGamiest Actually Larry Riley the gm of the Warriors at the time, planned to draft Curry all along. Curry and his father were told weeks before the draft that the Warriors wanted him, but both he and his father were hesitant and wanted to go to Knicks.

Hello how are you doing?

CanthonyJelly143 at the time there was monta ellis, who seemed to be their superstar at the time

CanthonyJelly143 yup

KiD stop😥

stfu Bandwagon you don't know about the NBA before 2015 LOL

@@fightnight14 he's trolling

But tbh no one truly ever knows. It's annoying when ppl call teams dumb for skipping players who later turn elite, you don't know injury, life can change everything thing also them being slept on or traded might've been that motivation they needed. Analyst are just ppl with opinion like you and me can't take any of them seriously.

Analysts weren't wrong anyway....He was a deadeye shooter who can shoot off the bounce, and was a Top 10 lottery pick....Only people who missed were the T'Wolves

Andrew Jones Thank you.....the warriors do everything that Jalen Rose said would be his strengths

werent even disrespecting him, they were just pointing out potential flaws

Grant Anderson Except skip Bayless... who was right for once 😂

It is truly his time. Now with a Finals MVP on his belt.

Not just once but twice lol that must hurt so bad!

Captain MonStar imagine matured Steph Curry with young Zach Levine, Kevin Love and KAT in one team.

Brian Fantana lavine and KAT wouldnt have been by us

And yet you would have had a better chance for a championship, Lavine is gone, and even with this all star line up you CAN TELL, those guys won't win shit, not now, not ever.

Captain MonStar Rubio and Flynn kill me NOW

dbzobsessedwiabriged He would of

He wouldn't develop into the mega star he is today tho

If we had gotten Curry maybe Dantony would not have been fired, maybe Carmelo and Stoudimire would of had a championship.

LOL, Curry would have never reached an NBA Finals in a D’Antoni offense.

@@jonathand.9555 Big Facts

The Current Year Lol

Even Flynn's coach in college Jim Boeheim didn't want Flynn to leave. It wasn't a, oh I'm losing my great player to the NBA type of don't go either. (cause Coaches were getting used to that)....It was a needs time to develop, type of don't leave...

Me too then I went and watched some of flynns best college performances and dude was playing great, shooting great and explosive, he got hurt in NBA which took away his explosiveness, it's like if Isaiah Thomas ends up losing a step he won't be nearly what he was or could have been. People always call players busts but sometimes it's just injuries

Turtle And Dad yea Flynn careee was cut short cause of a hip injury his rookie year.

Harry Garris Johnny Flynn was a problem look his highlights up for Syracuse

That was the past. Either way in the time of this draft it didn't look like it had future superstar players other than Blake Griffin.

SuperMisteryMan01 the 2009 draft was in the past? Thanks for pointing that out to me

Yep. And im a Grizzlies fan..... this was our worst Draft ever

Wow, I remember people being shaky on Thabeet at the time, terrible pick.

You think he's going to be great at 38yrs old? Come on dude, are you not familiar with human biology?

@@369pendulum Have you seen him the past couple years? With his kind of work ethic it's possible at least in the next few years

@@JasonJia11 Did you watch him last season? Of course you didn't. You watched First take & highlights. He did not play well at all last year. That was easily is worst season of his career so far. He's on a clear decline. By the time he gets to 38, he'll be coming off the bench.

@@369pendulum he could still be possible. Even in his worst year he averaged 25 5 8 I

@@369pendulum Lmao shut up...

Astonishing. Hindsight is 20/20, but it's unbelievably frustrating when your team misses on a player YOU and lots of other fans want them to pick! Kawhi should've been a Piston!!!! 😔

Perpetually Contemplating Rap Name No. The Knicks would win a ring with Melo, Amare, and Curry.

Al Phuckya mike d'antoni is a great offensive mind who's been with Steve Nash... Curry would've been great there

Al Phuckya melo is ball hog

He would have been dropped by the Knicks cuz his ankles

Youre exactly right. The knicks would have blew it 4sho.

schitaco yeah remember when Tyreke career got ruin by injuries and management

schitaco yep people don’t give the team management any credit whatsoever. The warriors had a very hungry organization and great loyal fans

Rubio’s career is not bad. Tyreke played iso ball... no playmaking or range. Never worked on his game to improve. Kings was cursed... but seems Vlade may be getting smarter. Bagley over Doncic though could be another regret.

Well said

@@gowentgonelegit Bagley not looking good!

Hello how are you doing?

+swaggyb3000 They'd still be a playoff team.

but not a championship team

Not a dynasty in the making

Monta never had this type of help lmao

User 8th seed every other year

slimboiphat it's a guessing game, even GMs make mistakes

they really didn't say anything bad about him, just that he had to prove himself.

Sonic yeah, plus, they said that the wort he'd be would be pretty much like Kyle Korver, an assassin from long range. Which is still VERY good

You're insane if you thought he would project to be this good. He was 160+ pounds soaking wet. He was a dynamic scorer, but so was Fredette, McDermott, Korver and others. Curry was nowhere near any of those guys, size-wise. Those careers are hard to project. Fredette could've been Korver, and vice-versa. Give credit to a guy working harder than everyone else in the room. His handle is infinitely better. His range goes out 4-5 feet further. A much better defender on and off the ball. Can fight through screens. His body is now built for punishment, where his college body was a question mark. He's changed the entire dynamic of how we analyze basketball and the value of the 3-pointer - who in their right mind in 2009 would've thought that Curry (along with others) would've broken the analytics scale? The experts projected him out as is. I can say (along with many others) that Michael Beasley would've been a top-20 player in the NBA if he projected out. That's just what we saw at the time.

slimboiphat analysts

Arguable? Bro at this point it isn't lol

But no finals MVP haha

+Leon Müßle because iggy won it

They didn't say ntn wrong

+Leon Müßle So what? He's got plenty of time to do that and league MVP, back to back, is better than a finals MVP.

User lmao no it's not. Finals MVP means you won the championship. That's way better than two mvp's.

the problem is twolves passing on him twice and getting another guard. which is actually weird.
