To what could be a very interesting turn of events, 2015-2016 unanimous NBA MVP, Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors is said to be moving to San Antonio Spurs to join Kawhi Leonard, Coach Gregg Popovich and the rest of the team, according to the latest NBA trade rumors.
Curry has exceptionally put up good consistent numbers at the start of this season averaging 27.2 points per game while grabbing 3.7 rebounds and dishing out 5.9 assists per game. The reigning league MVP continues to play at a high level despite being teamed up with former NBA MVP, Kevin Durant who currently averages 27.7 points per game.
After coming off with a couple of disappointing losses, the Warriors' have played well ever since and looks like the team-to-beat that they formed during the off-season after acquiring Kevin Durant. One of the league's most fearful superteam is in an 8-2 win-loss record, which places them 2nd place in a tough Western Conference. This great start is credited to a dominant scoring performance by Curry and KD.
With all these positive comments, Stephen Curry is still not spared from trading rumors and is said to be moved somewhere else. However, that speculation looks impossible to happen as of this time. The more probable scenario will be Curry signing up for another team, as he will be a free agent after this season.
According to the latest report in HNGN, it is highlighted that Curry will move to the East and join the Cleveland Cavaliers if they lose again to the team in NBA Finals this season. The two high-caliber teams are the favorites to see go head-to-head again for the championship trophy this year. If this happens, Lebron James and Stephen Curry's duo will be a dangerous tandem that could lead them to another NBA finals easily.
But in the same report, it is said that Curry will be shipped to the San Antonio Spurs if they shockingly topple the Golden State Warriors during the post-season this year. This looks like a possibility as the Spurs humiliated the Warriors on the opening night, beating the Warriors horribly.
The current roster of the Spurs are stacked and they are looking absolutely fine with the continual emergence of Kawhi Leonard, a core group of Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, and new addition Pau Gasol. If this trade scenario will take place, Curry will be teamed up with reigning 2-time NBA Defensive Player, Kawhi Leonard. Having them in one team will be a problem to the other ball clubs in the league.
Stephen Curry's transfer to San Antonio will not be a big problem as he will be under the leadership of Gregg Popovich. Coach Pop is considered to be one of the league's top-performing and most respected coaches. Coach Pop's playing style emphasizes ball movement. With this, Curry will eventually evolve as a complete player under Coach Pop's guidance.
It is said that Curry plans to play for the Warriors for his entire career. However, other reports think otherwise.
