It's nice and refreshing to hear someone like Stephen Curry, on the heels of one of the greatest tourneys in recent times, dismissing the NBA and opting to return for at least another year.

This guy stands for all the things collegiate athlete should stand for.  That's why everyone's so high on him.  The piece prior to the game today illustrates what he's all about.  Class all the way around.  His parents should be congratulated for raising such an admirable young man.

This guy is too good for the NBA.

No, not
skillwise-- but he's just too smart for the primarily "me first" attitude NBA players are notorious for.  He's one of the rare stars that has his head on straight and is doing what he wants to do, not what the money says he should do.  I know I'll rub off as a huge bandwagon Curry fan but I really like this kid's attitude towards both life and basketball.

I'm sure Curry will succeed in anything he desires to pursue.

he would have been stuffed thats why he didn't take the last shot, i agree he is an unbelievable college player but Rush and someone else were all over him no one could have gotten that shot off he had to pass.

I think he should have taken it to the hoop and tried to draw the foul. All they needed was 2 points, and they were looking for a 3-ball the whole way. Curry= Amazing

First...I was really surprised that he was the one bringing the ball up the court. He is very good at coming off screens, I thought for sure he would be running off multiple screens all over the court to look for the open 3. But, it is what it is, and he had one heck of a tournament.

Second...I admire him for sticking to his guns and staying in school. His draft stock is so high right now but he is doing what he feels is best for him. I think he will have an alright pro career. The guy can flat out shoot the ball. His defense is not bad, it is definitely an area where he can improve. If he adds some weight in muscle and continues to improve his offense...he will have a nice career. I am sure there are quite a few teams out there that would like a guy on their team who has unlimited range and has the ability to hit big shot after big shot.

First, I can't help but feel heartened about this kid.  Seems like the All-American story.  He's only 19 so another year in college to get bigger and stronger and maybe learn the point position doesn't seem like a mistake to me.

For those who follow college BB closer than I do, considering that Davidson will lose their PG and 2 significant frontcourt contributors to graduation, is there a highly regarded h.s. frontcourt prospect (that could meet Davidson's academic requirements) who now might consider enrolling at Davidson to play with Curry next year?  Do you think that the fact that the team will obviously center around Curry will help or hurt them in recruiting F/C's to replace the departing seniors?

just a question...

"too smart for the primarily "me first" attitude NBA players are notorious for."

such as who?  Chris Paul? Shane Battier? Monta Ellis? Al Jefferson? Who do you have in mind there?

"He's one of the rare stars that has his head on straight and is doing what he wants to do, not what the money says he should do."  Really? Are you aware that his dad was a pro and unlike most stars he doesn't need the money.

"but I really like this kid's attitude towards both life and basketball."
do you even know the guy??? Come on man.

Go to the local corner store and buy yourself a clue.

Curry is a Class act! He has a chance to make money and he turns it down for the love of the game. You dont see this often, he wants to win and i hope he does. He is my new favorite player now haha i am jumping on the bandwagon.
