Curry is a representative star of the small ball era and a well-deserved Hall of Fame player. Curry has been elected regular season MVP twice in his career and twice won the NBA leading scorer. Curry was the NBA's best-in-form star at the start of the season, but as the season progressed, Curry encountered some problems and suffered from injuries. There is currently no clear time for return. Curry's honor also suffers when these factors come together, and without injury Curry is likely to lock in a one-time slot.
Basically missed this season
At present, 28 media people have announced their first-wave votes, curry has only received 2 first-wave votes, and 11 second-team votes. This means that Curry has only 7% of the votes in one burst, and his chances of being selected are basically 0. So far in his career, Curry has won 4 first-team games, less than Durant and Harden. Durant and Harden have been selected for a total of 6 times in their careers. The best team is also a very influential honor, and the second and third teams are generally ordinary stars. But to be selected for a team, you have to be a true superstar. Curry's 4 career selections are not small, but fans know that with Curry's strength, he has been selected at least 6 to 7 times. Why does Curry have fewer selections than stars like Harden and Durant? The article next tells you the answer.
Plagued by injuries
First, Curry suffered some injuries in his career, and it wasn't until 2015 that Curry reached his peak. Curry's career selections were made in 2015, 2016, 2019 and 2021. Curry was injured in 2018 and missed more than 20 games, and attendance had a big impact on the selection of the best team. In 2020, Curry was plagued by serious injuries and played only five games in the entire season. In the third season of his career, Curry suffered a major injury, which shows that the injury hazard has been lingering in Curry's career. Without injuries, Curry would certainly have been selected more often.
Lineup luxury leads to a weakening of influence
Second, Curry only got two of them after 2016, for the simple reason that Durant's addition affected his stats. It's important to have data and team performances at the time of a bout. As the Warriors formed a luxurious lineup at the time, Curry's influence was invisibly weakened. Durant got some votes and attention. If Curry and another star have the same numbers and team results, the judges will definitely favor other stars because the Warriors' roster is too strong. Curry and the Warriors only ranked eighth in the West in the regular season last season, but Curry alone brought the team to eighth in the West, and the data is still very good. Naturally, it was indisputably selected for a while.
Curry missed a game this season or injury is a problem, if Curry is selected once this season, he will have five firsts in his career. In fact, most Hall of Fame star careers can be selected multiple times, and it is not easy for Curry to get 4 ones.
Fans don't have to worry about it, and the Warriors' current roster is still competitive. Young players are growing rapidly, even if Curry is 34 years old, considering his style of play and form, as long as he remains healthy, Curry can still play eye-catching performances in the next two seasons. After all, he was Curry. Dear readers, how do you rate Curry's selection to the NBA All-NBA Team four times in his career? Feel free to leave a comment in the comments section below the article.
