    The great thing about Steph is that he's seen and thought about all of this that's been said. For him to be so grounded and yet so confident is dope. Character and status in the same person is something that you don't always get

    After G5 the “Wiggins should win FMVP” “conversation” got so heavy and I was like “nah bro we would have lost already if it wasn’t for Steph” gtfo😂
  • One aspect that gets ignored too often is that it wasn't just Igoudala on Lebron- Draymond was outstanding defensively in that finals & it was easier for Golden State to throw multiple guys at Lebron (not just Iguodala) because Kyrie/Love were both hurt. Add in the fact that Steph played great and they have zero chance of winning that finals without him on the floor & I think Stephs' value in that finals consistently gets underrated.

    I’m glad steph said he deserved the 2015 nba finals mvp because he definitely did. I get why iguodala got it because he guarded Lebron well but Stephs right - GS doesn’t win the finals without steph playing the way he played
  • LMAO his laugh when they say Wiggins should win MVP. Amazing.
  • Game 4 against the Celtics won Steph that finals MVP. If he doesn’t go off in 4th quarter at the Garden then they lose that series
  • I honestly questioned how Steph would motivate himself coming into this season. Now that he won without KD and has a finals MVP, it’s like he has nothing left to prove. But that’s what makes him special. He found a way to motivate himself to stay competitive and stay hungry. Much respect for that
  • @dudesayHEY
    I appreciate Curry's honesty. One of the few guys in the league that's down to earth
  • It’s insane Iggy won for his “defense”… bron Average 35 points in 13 rebounds and 8 assts…. Amazing D………………..
  • @Z.O.2929
    Media confused X factor with FMVP in 2015
  • I wasn't expecting Curry to just say it how it is. He did deserve that MVP 🤣😂 if he ain't leading who is? There is no GSW without Curry. No bulls without MJ.
  • @johnman9536
    I remember people saying Wiggins should be Finals MVP after game 5 in the 2022 Finals. I'm not saying Wiggins would have not deserved it, but Steph just played better in that whole series. They were both needed to win that series, but Steph definitely deserved it over Wiggins more. I also don't care what anyone else says, Steph should have been the 2015 Finals MVP.
  • Steph had 17 points in the 4th qtr of game and 13 points in the 4th qtr of the finals 2015 and they gave the MVP to Iggy. They need to drug test the Finals MVP voters of that year and fire them. I think they said Steph didn't have any votes for finals MVP that year in the final averaging 26, 5 and 6. smh
  • The only player who changed the NBA the same way he toyed with in college. One of the coldest ever mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Mans literally became what his pops was in video games
  • Jj is pretty good at hosting an well spoken didn’t expect it just subscribed
  • @okmoney2048
    That ending is underrated. Lmao. "I can't wait until I'm retired behind a microphone and get to pick my target from the current players."
  • @lou93000
    Im a massive celtics fan, and in the finals i absolutely hated this guy. But the class hes shown his whole career/the way he acts in this interview has left me no choice but to be a huge fan of his. Will actually be hard to describe his greatness to the next generation. Truly believe there will never be another like him…props.
  • Steph totally deserved that finals mvp award..., daylight robbery for sure..., I love iggy.., but there is no way the warriors won without steph at any level of competition
  • @strawhats100
    I wanna know his thoughts on the 2018 NBA Finals MVP. I thought he was the best player in 3 of the 4 games played in that series
