"I mean Curry averaged 35 points a game and Jordan averaged the same thing" - American rapper compares Steph Curry's 2022 NBA Finals performance to Michael Jordan's in '90s

The 2022 NBA playoffs will go down as one of Steph Curry's best. The run ended in an NBA title for the Golden State Warriors and a Finals MVP trophy for Curry.

Curry averaged 31.2 points, 5.0 assists and 6.0 rebounds per game in the Finals, highlighted by a 40-point, 10-rebound double-double in Game 4.

Michael Jordan, meanwhile, averaged 33.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game in the NBA Finals during his career, eerily similar to Curry's numbers this past season.

In an interview with DJ Vlad, Boosie, an American rapper, spoke about Curry's performances in the 2022 Finals. He pointed out how similar it was to Jordan's run with the Bulls in the 1990s.

"I mean Curry averaged 35 points a game this series and Jordan averaged the same thing. Curry made 53 3-pointers, Jordan made two and they averaged the same thing, that's dominance on both ways.

"That's 53 three pointers at 35 a game, two three-pointers so how many buckets Jordan made? That's a walking bucket."

Some of Steph Curry's best games of his career came in the 2022 NBA playoffs. He produced a 34-point effort in 23 minutes coming off the bench in Game 2 of the Western Conference first-round clash against Denver.

However, he saved his best for the Finals. With the Warriors trailing 2-1 against the Celtics, Curry carried his team on his back, pouring in 43 points. He also had 10 rebounds as he guided the Warriors to a 107-97 win to even the series.

Curry made two baskets during a 10-0 run for the Warriors in the fourth quarter, which turned a four-point Boston lead into a six-point lead for Golden State. He shot 14 of 26 from the field, including 7 of 14 from 3-point range.
