Why doesn't Steph Curry get the Cam Newton criticism

[Kendrick]

For celebrating in front of the opposing team's bench after made 3-pointers like Cam does for dancing after TDs or posing for photos on the sidelines when the game has been decided?

I love both Steph and Cam. Love their post play histrionics, but Steph hasn't caused the same criticism for stunts like this below and he does it a lot.

well you know

Steph still has some "underdog" aura about him, so I guess his antics are a bit more tolerable.

 

[Blacknbengal]

He light skinned.

He's 6-3 with NBA DNA running through his veins. Curry is no underdog. Lol!

Basketball is different. Just like in baseball where you can't pause and watch your hit sail over the centerfield wall.

 

[bluedog]

When did a shooting guard become the face of the white male superiority?

 

[goodolebrave]

He light skinned.

AMEN!!! They back.

Look at his narrative.

His NBA player daddy's college didn't want him coming out of high school.

He played at Davidson. Balled hard at Davidson, but NBA folks questioned whether he could compete at the the highest level.

His durability (ankles primarily) was questioned.

Because his dad played pro ball and he is light skinned damn near white.

Imagine is Steph played during the time of the Detroit Bad Boys. LOL!!!!

He would have torched them like Tim Hardaway used to when he was at GS. A shooter with handles like Steph would have been good in any era.

Man Bill Lambeer(sp) would have jumped off the bench on his ass. LOL

Hands can't hit what your eyes can't see.

Laimbeer would have been busy fighting the bigs.

You mean this Bill Laimbeer?

 

[Devil's Gun Trigger Man]

Don't worry, it's coming. Never forget that our society builds people up to tear them down.........

I'm glad you knew who I was talking about since Kendrick had to vividly point it out even though I placed (sp) behind it. Some folks just so damn simple. LOL

 

[jag4life]

Dude didn't you see that I placed (sp) meaning misspelled? Jesus....LOL...

I think he was saying Laimbeer wasn't gon do nothin... based on that flop and posterization.

Exactly.

Kemp used to stunt on cats after dunking on them and nobody stepped to him. And this was in the violent 90s.

Yea that Laimbeer....hell this entire team!!!

 

[The Founder]

These players wouldn't stand a chance back in the day. Hell they complain about getting slapped on the hand.

 

[The Founder]

My bad Kendrick...LOL...

 

[Kendrick]

These players wouldn't stand a chance back in the day. Hell they complain about getting slapped on the hand.

And players back in the day didn't complain?

Y'all let one team (the Pistons) perpetuate the false narrative that every team in the NBA played a similar style.

They were one of the exceptions, which is why many revert to then.
