Underneath Boston's historic championship banners and on the Celtics' hallowed parquet floor, Curry didn't just put another ring on it but he cemented his ...

After Memphis blew out Golden State in Game 5, Curry had 29 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists to eliminate the Grizzlies in Game 6. "This is an era of play that will be defined by LeBron James, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant," Thomas said. If he doesn't, wherever he is at, he's been great." If he gets to the top 10, God bless him. "As [Boston's] Cedric Maxwell said to me the other night, he goes, 'There's [32 NBA Finals MVPs]. I'm one of them.' Then, you can make the argument that there's some other people who should be in the top 10, top 15. What I do know, and I do want people to realize, is the Chamberlains, the Russells, the Kareems, the Shaqs, that's four right there. All eleven voters from a national media panel chose Curry as the MVP of the 2022 Finals. Curry finished with 34 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds in the series clincher. Game 6 was also a legacy game for the point guard. "To me, this is his crowning achievement in what's already been an incredible career." And he let opponents hear it from him too during this championship run. In six games against the Celtics, Curry averaged 31.2 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.

Steph Curry leads Warriors to NBA title, earns Finals MVP: 'God is ... (sportsspectrum.com)

Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry praised God after leading his team to the NBA championship and earning his first Finals MVP award.

“My faith is tested on the court as much as it is in life,” Curry said on the show. “We know that all things God works for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose, and for me that was something I really believed,” Curry said on the podcast. While holding the MVP trophy Thursday night, he made sure to praise everyone else who helped the Warriors win another championship. Just all the work that went into it, all the faith and belief, and everybody in that locker room that’s getting to spray champagne around that locker room, everybody mattered in that process.” Curry likely has plenty more accolades that he’ll add to his name and trophies he’ll add to his collection before his career is done. “Everybody on this stage had a part in this,” he said. His faith in God is what keeps him grounded as more and more praise is heaped upon him, he said three years ago in a Facebook series called “Stephen vs. In Game 6, he hit three 3-pointers in the third quarter, including one with 6:15 left in the quarter that gave the Warriors a 22-point lead. “The ability to be able to be on this stage and play with amazing teammates against a great Boston Celtics team that gave us everything [they had] to try to get to the finish line, this one hits different for sure. And this time, it was Curry’s time to shine. In six games against the Celtics, Curry averaged 31.2 points, 6.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists. But for the first time, Stephen Curry was named the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player.

NBA top 75 players of all time: Where does Steph Curry rank now on ... (The Athletic)

What does a fourth title and first Finals MVP mean for Stephen Curry's standing among the NBA's all-time greats?

He’s aged very well and his game and conditioning should allow him to continue that trend, but if he plays at an All-Star level for a few more years, it’ll be tough to contest that he’s the greatest point guard of all time. Rob Peterson: If you’re close to the top 10 or in some people’s top 10, I think you’re already in the GOAT convo. But as a top-10 player (in my opinion) all time, he’s already in the discussion. Damon Sayles: Michael Jordan is the GOAT, in my opinion, and it will take a TON for me to change my mind. Also, I think Luka Doncić should probably be in the 75 based on talent alone and his ability to affect games. I had Giannis Antetokounmpo in my top 20 (at No. 20), and he’s No. 24 on our list. He is the omission from our list and from the NBA’s list. I’d love to place Giannis Antetokounmpo higher, but it’s really hard to jump him above Elgin Baylor considering the way the latter was the original version of many of the future high-flyers on the list – Giannis included. Jon Greenberg: Man, it wasn’t a great season for a lot of the active members of the top 75 list, was it? Curry is the greatest shooter in NBA history, one of the greatest players in terms of gravity and one of the few in history (George Mikan, Wilt Chamberlain, Oscar, Elgin Baylor, Dr. J and Magic Johnson) who can lay claim to changing how the game is played. I think he has a stronger argument now than he did a year ago, but the bulk of that argument is from 2015 to 2020 either way. I don’t want to be a prisoner of the moment.

Steph Curry epically trolls Celtics fans with posts after NBA Finals win (NBC Sports Bay Area)

Steph Curry had the last word on Thursday night after the Warriors beat the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals.

Curry told reporters on Wednesday that he enjoyed the Boston barbs. But Curry didn’t necessarily have to post those photos to get his message across after finishing Game 6 with 34 points with six 3-pointers, seven assists and seven rebounds. Then, he decided to support Boston’s cause by epically posing with one of their “Ayesha Curry can’t cook” shirts, posting it to his Instagram story with a simple message: “Bye Boston!”

Steph Curry welcomed by Magic Johnson to elite club after Warriors ... (NBC Sports Bay Area)

Steph Curry was given a warm welcome to the exclusive NBA club.

And he graduated college, an achievement Ayesha Curry doesn't want the world to forget. It has been a journey for sure, but to look at that list and realize only one other player is still playing in the NBA is absurd to think about what Curry could still accomplish. And in doing so, he joined some ultra-elite company in the process.

Ex-NBA champ eats humble pie as Steph reveals the taunt that spurred him on to greatness.

“Stand on your word, brother! You gotta stand on that. That is something you don’t want. “Boston is going to win this game in great fashion because, listen, you think you were mad when Kyrie [Irving] stomped on Lucky. Just imagine if he’s getting drowned in champagne, ok? Boston is winning. The star point guard — who won his first Finals MVP after the Warriors beat the Celtics 103-90 on Thursday night — called out “some talking heads” that said he would win “zero” championships in the next four years.

Steph is dominating NBA like never before... but one 'lazy' tag still undersells him.

The closest star -- and I got this from Steve Kerr -- that compares to Curry, in terms of his selflessness, is Tim Duncan... he’s a great playmaker and a great teammate... the defence has to pay attention to him.” “His ball movement, his ability to move off the screens… This though may be the most unlikely of them all. Curry was confident he could get the job done so why would Poole not feel that way too? “He just doesn’t get enough credit for his level of conditioning and physicality and defence. That makes the most sense.’ That was it. And I think what people don’t talk about, because he’s not longwinded in what he says, is that he’s truly an outstanding leader.” “For him to come out of nowhere and do this… That was all while also attempting the most tightly contested shots of any players in the Finals. “No, he’s one of the greatest players this league has ever seen. When it comes to Steph Curry, we are programmed to expect the unexpected.

It took 13 years, but Steph Curry's number is going to be retired by ... (Charlotte Observer)

Steph Curry made the number 30 famous at Davidson, but the number wasn't retired because of a Davidson policy. Now, due to Curry's graduation, it will be.

At Davidson, Curry was a lightly-recruited player known as the son of former Charlotte Hornet Dell Curry who blossomed into a star. He is a multi-millionaire, and yet he still takes the time to finish his education.” But the door opened when Curry graduated in May 2022, 13 years after he skipped his senior year at Davidson to join the NBA one year early.
