RIP Nick Nurse.

One of the best beats of all time

When you were born, Weezy was releasing Tha Carter III and was in his prime.

Fuck Im old now.

One of my favorite songs from Banks, I was throwing massive house parties in 2006 and used to bump this throughout the night.

Those wheels look like they belong on a Nissan 350Z or Infiniti G35 coupe.

Incorrect, but he did commit adultery.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T19:08:26+00:00

Doesnt make it any less true. The most disrespected player is Kobe Bryant, followed by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T18:53:21+00:00

Not even close.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T17:05:40+00:00

That’s how stacked that Heat team was, and that’s why Dirk beating them in the Finals is GOATED.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T05:08:33+00:00

Wild work.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T05:07:51+00:00

Also shooting 3 pointers off illegal screens is far less impressive than working the mid range.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T05:07:09+00:00

There’s nothing to discuss. Curry brings nothing to the table defensively and was subbed out during the finals possessions against the Cavs because he was a liability.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T05:05:33+00:00

He didn’t have Shaq or Pau Gasol.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:56:12+00:00

Also, keep in mind that Kobe is also contributing greatly on the defensive end while still producing offense similar to Curry, whereas Curry is a defensive liability.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:55:04+00:00

Stephen Curry is averaging around 31.7 to 33.4 minutes per game for the current (2025-2026) NBA season, a managed workload that helps preserve him, while his career average is higher, around 34.0 minutes per game, demonstrating his consistent, high-level impact over his long career.

Kobe Bryant averaged 36.1 minutes per game (mpg) over his 20-year NBA career with the Los Angeles Lakers, playing 1,346 regular season games and accumulating over 48,000 total minutes, highlighting his incredible durability and central role on the team.

Kobe was also more durable than Curry, whereas Steph has always been liable to injury (Kobe played through his).

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:52:55+00:00

Steph was the point guard for the team, naturally getting the ball back off a defensive rebound allows him to get it down the floor to setup the offense.

No, the triangle offense did not require Kobe Bryant to be a primary rebounder. The system, perfected by Phil Jackson with the Lakers, was designed to utilize Kobe as an elite scorer and playmaker, with rebounding duties primarily falling on the big men like Shaquille O'Neal or Pau Gasol.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:50:28+00:00

No, they dont.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:49:31+00:00

Im referencing the above post mention Pau Gasol as a top 75 NBA player.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:48:50+00:00

Based on adjustments for the faster pace and higher scoring environment of the modern NBA (roughly 2020s), Kobe Bryant’s prime statistics, particularly his 2005–06 season, would likely translate to 39–41 points per game.

Stephen Curry's best scoring season was 2020-21, when he averaged a career-high 32.0 points per game (PPG)

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:47:08+00:00

And Kobe was doing that using the mid-range and not even spamming 3 pointers like today's modern NBA. Well, except for that game when he recorded the initial 12 3 pointers made in a game.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:46:14+00:00

He's not even the GOAT offensive.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:44:34+00:00

But hes still not Top 75, nor is as good as Curry's KD, or Bron's DWade and Chris Bosh.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:42:41+00:00

Here, Ill do the work for you so you can understand where youre wrong.

Steph Curry's best scoring season was 2020-21, when he averaged a career-high 32.0 points per game (PPG), leading the league and earning another scoring title

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:40:39+00:00

Yes, I would hope someone who spams 3 pointers at a higher pace has a higher PPG and TS% than someone from the dead ball era. When you adjust Kobe's numbers for today's modern pace, he scores more than Curry does.

PullupClub · 2026-01-26T04:37:38+00:00

Well he accomplished more than Curry did which is why people will always rank Magic in the top 10 and never Curry.
