Why is Curry a superstar and Durant a superstar taller than Curry?

If you compare the current Curry with Durant, I don't feel that Durant's status is higher than Curry. For example, last year's selection of the top 50 NBA stars in history ranked Curry in the tenth place in history, while Durant ranked 15th.

Durant's second pick in the first round was selected by the SuperSonics, who are now the Thunder. He has enough amazing talent, a small forward, but he has the height of a center and the dribbling ability that a guard can hardly match, and what is even more terrifying is that he also has this historic shooting touch, these three talents make Durant a "one-in-a-million" offensive wizard. Taller than Durant is not as fast as Durant, faster than Durant is not as tall as Durant, and as fast as Durant is as tall as Durant to shoot accurately.

Four-time scoring champion, averaging 27 points per game in his regular season career and 29 points per game in his playoff career, this is the best evaluation of Durant.

Let's take a look at Curry, who was drafted by the Warriors with the seventh pick in the first round and will spend the next 11 years, if not all of his career, with the Warriors. We've never seen anyone with as much offensive deterrence as Curry, and most of the offensive deterrence of other stars is when they're on the ball, and Curry's deterrent is that as long as he's on the court, we can't afford to let up in the slightest. This is the legendary "Curry has gravity", although Curry's scoring ability may not be as good as Durant's, but Curry is one of the few players who can maximize the potential of his teammates while playing his own strengths, and he will benefit the team more than Durant.

Curry and his Warriors' reliance on three-pointers and defensive counter-attacks ushered in a new era for the league, and we have to admit that Curry is more influential than Durant, both off and off the court. If it weren't for frequent injuries, Curry would have achieved much more.

It was originally Durant high.

Curry can be limited, Durant can't be limited, that's the difference, and that's why the second child is so awesome in the playoffs.

I don't think it has anything to do with the game, because Durant became famous earlier than Curry, has a bigger reputation, has more fans, and has more influence in the basketball world, so Durant is a superstar.

Because Curry is the first tier player in the NBA, he is very popular and can be called a superstar, and Durant is even more popular than Curry.

Suffice it to say, without Durant's help, Curry would not have been able to win the championship. The Warriors were able to win the championship entirely with the help of Durant. Suffice it to say, Curry left Durant with no room to play at all.

Because Durant is physically stronger than Curry, the offense is more unsolvable, the playing time is long, and he can solve the team's problems better, Curry can't keep up with the defensive intensity and is easy to be targeted.

Which is stronger Durant or Curry? Different people have different opinions on this issue. Personally, I think that Durant is stronger than Curry in terms of personal ability, but in general, Curry is much more successful than Durant.

As one of the top three players in the league today, Durant's individual ability is obvious to all! It can be said that Durant's offensive ability really has no dead ends on the court. As a trailblazer in the small-ball era, Curry has excellent three-point ability, and his ball-handling skills and playmaking skills are also top-notch.

A large part of the reason why the Warriors have been so brilliant today is because of Curry's existence!

But Durant and Curry are both on the Warriors, and fans really don't have the same evaluation of them! It can be said that "Curry" is still quite likable, whether it is fans, teammates or management, they are convinced! But Durant is different.

Although he won the championship and won the FMVP trophy, no one ever recognized him! Here's why:

First, Durant was disappointed to join the Warriors. I believe everyone has a feeling about Durant joining the Warriors, that is, Durant really wants to win the championship, but he took a shortcut! Even if Durant's performance in the Finals was amazing, people didn't recognize it.

In other words, if Durant doesn't join the Warriors, he may not even make it to the Finals. What about championships and FMVPs?

Second, Durant is not as good as Curry! That's the biggest difference between Durant and Curry. I believe fans who have watched the recent Warriors games know that teams with Curry and without Curry are completely different.

Curry recently missed games due to injury. As a result, the Warriors recently suffered an embarrassing record of three consecutive defeats, and the team struggled very well in the game. The U.S. even has a graph to illustrate Curry's impact on the Warriors, which is why Durant is not as good as Curry.

Third, both Durant and Curry are doing well on the court, but Curry is obviously more popular than Durant in life! Life is bigger than basketball, it's often said! Curry is loved by fans both on the court and in life, not only because of his personal ability, but also because of his high emotional intelligence.

Although Durant is doing well on the court, he has a lot of love to compete with fans in his life. Every time someone says he's joining the Warriors, he gets excited, so that's the main reason why Durant can't be the leader of the Warriors. Curry's individual abilities are not as good as Durant's, but he has a high level of player and emotional intelligence.

To put it simply, the Warriors can do without Durant, but they must not do without Curry!

Ability-wise, Durant is stronger than Curry because Durant has a higher scoring efficiency than Curry. Durant also has a more significant advantage in terms of player confrontation ability, and in terms of court finishing ability, Durant is better than Curry.

Curry and Durant are active superstars in the NBA, both of them are very good, and from a ability standpoint, Durant is better than Curry because Durant has better talent and more scoring means.

I think Durant is still the strongest, although Curry's strength is also very good, but the comparison is still a little inferior.

Who is stronger, historical status, personal ability, Durant or Curry? The data is heart-wrenching, and the gap is huge.

Curry's greatest ability is not three-pointers, but he is happy to be his teammate.

I think Durant is better than Curry, mainly in terms of physical talent and on the court. Physically, Durant has the height of the interior line, the flexibility of the outside line, his agility and court skills are also impeccable, coupled with excellent shooting ability and excellent individual offensive ability, which few players have been able to achieve throughout NBA history. On the court, Durant has been an offensive player throughout his career.

Before he came to the Warriors, he averaged the highest assists per game (the single-core team won the MVP that season), and the Thunder averaged every game in his career. He is currently the strongest ball-handling core and the strongest player to lead the team to ensure the lower limit of the record.

Compared with Durant, Curry was first criticized for his ability to lead the team. Three championships, no FMVP. It is estimated that Curry is the only one who leads a strong team but does not have an FMVP.

If it's just that there is no FMVP, then the most incomprehensible thing about the past is that Curry often drops the chain at the most critical moment.

For example, the 73-win Warriors played against the Cavaliers in Game 7, and there was a return pass error at a critical moment. In addition, Irving sent a three-pointer on Curry's head, basically scoring to seal the win, and what was Curry's reaction? It's just that I missed and didn't go in.

It is not difficult to see from here that compared to Curry's unreliability, Durant is much stronger.

Aside from physical talent and on-court performance, Durant is stronger than Curry in another place, that is, the comprehensiveness of his own skills, Curry's strength advantage is very significant, but it is not that there is no targeted method, and in the face of Durant, whose attribute value is basically average, it is not so easy to suppress him, which has caused a phenomenon, that is, Durant's on-court existence value is higher than Curry's, and the value of this on-court existence is not only manifested in scoring, but also teamwork, personal assistance and other aspects. It can be said that it will be difficult to play without Curry on the team, but without Durant, most of them will lose. It can be seen from this that Durant is not better than Curry in one or two points.

Durant works very hard in normal times, and will have a particularly good way of exercising, always challenging some difficult moves.

His physical strength, overall ability, Durant is much stronger than Curry in these aspects, and Durant's body is also relatively healthy.

I think Durant is better than Curry in scoring efficiency, and Durant's scoring efficiency is far better than Curry's.

Durant is a stronger individual, but Curry is a stronger player on the team.

Durant has the height of the inside, the flexibility and agility of the outside and the skill set, and the projection ability is superb, and the individual offensive power of a player may be rarely compared in history, but he has always appeared as an attacker in his career, and the highest average assists per game before coming to the Warriors was the MVP that season when he led the team to win the MVP), the average per game in the Thunder career, he is more suitable as a finisher than a playmaker, so when Durant leads the team as the core of the team, he always feels that he is tired and half the effort. Compared with Durant, the second and third brothers are stronger organizers, and they lead the team better, especially the third brother, who is currently the strongest ball-holding core and the strongest player who leads the team to protect the lower limit of the record.

Curry, on the other hand, is undoubtedly the better team player. Curry has a huge threat both with and without the ball, a trait rarely seen in NBA history, which gives him great compatibility. It is based on Curry's unique technical characteristics that the Warriors' passing and cutting system can be established and form a dynasty-level combat power.

However, Curry's hard handling of the ball is indeed relatively poor at the level of historical superstars (mainly limited by physical conditions and shooting posture, but these things themselves are also Curry's characteristics, which can be regarded as pros and cons), so the Warriors really became a complete body after the addition of Durant, who has the top offensive ability.

To sum up, players of the same level have a higher attacker ceiling and a higher playmaker lower limit (this playmaker is not a simple playmaker like Rondo, but a ball-handling core like Harden Doncic, who can pass the ball and have top offensive power). Durant is an attacker, a stronger individual, Curry is an excellent playmaker, slightly inferior in ability to digest the ball (the Warriors system does not need to hold the ball core to digest a lot of ball) but has a heavy off-ball threat, plus the explosive scoring ability is the best in history (20+ times in a single quarter, the historical level), so Curry is a stronger player.

Curry is the stronger one. Because he is a very good basketball player, his strength is very strong, he has performed very well in many games, his three-point shooting ability is very strong, the shooting rate is very high, and the defensive ability is also very good.

Durant is the strongest one, Durant has a lot of excellent statistics, his performance is also very stable, and he has a very strong ability to control the court, whether it is offensive or defensive, he is very good.

Personally, I think Curry is stronger because he's very fast and won the Basketball World Cup in 2014.

Durant's strength is stronger, Durant's defensive ability can be called a must, and the level that the Warriors currently have, mostly relies on Durant's existence, although Curry is also a talented athlete with good strength, but compared with Durant, he has more mistakes and weaker defensive ability, so Durant's strength is stronger.

Durant is stronger. This is because Durant is very explosive in the game, in a very good state, relatively stable, and the overall strength is relatively strong.

I think Durant is stronger, Durant's ball control is very good, and his physical flexibility is also very strong.

We all know that Durant has a strong scoring ability, but: in the 2017 regular season, Curry was the Warriors' leading scorer. In the 2017 playoffs, Curry was the Warriors' leading scorer

477 points, Durant 428 points. In the 2016-17 season, Curry's +- value was and Durant was the season, vs 。

Curry is more important to the Warriors than Durant. The following data is interesting. Everyone says that Durant is better than Curry in the playoffs.

However, it is worth mentioning that Curry averaged 27 points per game in the playoffs throughout his career, and his true shooting rate was as high as 61%. During the Thunder period, Durant averaged 29 points per game in the playoffs and shot 58% from the field.

During the Warriors' time, Durant averaged 30 points per game in the playoffs and shot 64% from the field. Most obviously: In the 2016 playoffs, the Thunder's Durant averaged 28 points per game in the playoffs and shot 54% from the field.

In the 2017 playoffs, the Warriors' Durant averaged 29 points per game in the playoffs, with a true shooting rate of 68%. Why is there such a big increase in a year? In the third playoff game of the 2017-2019 season, when he played against Curry, Durant's true shooting rate was as high as 66%, and he scored 38 points per 100 possessions.

When not playing against Curry, he shoots 60 percent from the field and scores 43 points per 100 possessions. During the same three-year playoff period, when playing with Durant, Curry shot 65 percent from the field and scored 33 points per 100 possessions. When not playing Durant, he has a true shooting percentage of 60% and scores 41 points per 100 possessions.

From a technical point of view. I've said many times before that Durant's moves and shots are the highest, making him the best efficient killer in NBA history. But before 2014, he was afraid of small ball-carriers, which was not the lethal point of attracting attack.

Coupled with the limitation of his vision, he has always stayed in the state of the top scorer. His decisive advantage was to shoot over his opponent's head rather than to score on a breakaway. Later, after the technical success, Durant was also a dead-end killer, but not around the axis of the organizational routine.

In other words: Durant doesn't have a system.

Curry is known for his all-time unparalleled three-point threat, the all-time best off-ball sport, and his wide field of view and ball: he can output when he has the ball, and when he has the ball, he can relieve the pressure on all teammates without hindering teammates from getting the ball. Curry (and LeBron) is a system that can be taken over as a killer when needed.

Durant is a top-tier takeover killer and perhaps a better individual attacker than Curry. But he hasn't been able to prove that he's capable of creating enough welfare for his teammates on the top stage – at least not yet. So the result:

Curry doesn't have Durant, two MVPs, three Finals, and a championship. Durant didn't have Curry, an MVP, a Finals, no championship — and played two more seasons than Curry. At least so far.
