So, anyone gonna fix that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.170.166.138 (talk) 19:05, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Last two paragraphs of "Reception" seem slanderous (not NPOV)

[edit]

Focusing on Andrew Wiggins (who's an average player) and the 2015 FMVP discussion (NBA hasn't clearly proven that Curry received 0 of 11 votes) makes the article seem biased towards the Warriors and against Nick Wright.

Focusing on less ambiguous criticisms such as his overconfident attitude on the Chiefs or stark criticisms of Jokic would be more appropriate. Tranquid (talk) 21:18, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did not add this information but it's not slanderous. It's cited properly and accurately describes these situations. Also, yes actually there has been clear documentation that Curry received 0 of 11 votes for the 2015 NBA Finals MVP award. Sports Illustrated source here, also from The Athletic: "The final vote was 7-4, with none for Steph Curry..." And yes the NBA (via their Senior VP of Basketball Communications) has actually weighed in on that situation see source here.
That being said, I'm unsure if we should remove this information though, on one hand it does sorta kinda give me WP:CRUFT vibes, but on the other Wright has come out and addressed both situations directly - he has apologized for his misinformation about the 2015 Finals MVP voting situation, and has owned up to his cold take on Wiggins. That Wiggins is an average player (which is already subjective and perhaps underrating him as he is an All-Star), is also irrelevant in the context of if this information should be included.
I do agree that adding information about his Chiefs fandom would be appropriate though. Soulbust (talk) 19:20, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
