Steph Curry Is The MVP

With the 2020-2021 NBA season winding down, there has been a wide debate on who should be given the award for regular season Most Valuable Player. Countless players have entered into this conversation. These include Joel Embiid, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Chris Paul, Luka Doncic, and favorite Nikola Jokic. However, a player that has been mostly left out of the conversation, one that might have the strongest case for the award is Stephen Curry.

Stephen Curry Is Having A Career Year

Steph Curry is having a career year. Curry is currently averaging 31.8 points, 5.7 assists. This is the best Curry has been playing in 5 years when he averaged 30.1 points, 6.7 assists. It should be noted that Steph Curry is 33 years old still playing at a hyper elite level in a loaded Western Conference that includes rising young stars like Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Zion Williamson, Devin Booker, and Ja Morant.

Stephen Curry Is Carrying A Less Than Stellar Warriors Team To The Playoffs.

Steph Curry Elated During A Game

It has been two years since Klay Thompson tore his ACL in Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors. After being gone for the entirety of the 2019-2020 season, Thompson suffered an achilles tear in 2020 during a pickup game in Los Angeles. So for the entirety of the 2020-2021 NBA season, Steph Curry has been playing without the second best player on his team. Essentiall Jordan without Pippen, Batman without Robin.

Currently, the second best active player Curry has on his roster is Andrew Wiggins. Now Andrew Wiggins is not a lackluster player by any means, especially in recent years. However, he does not bring that superstar quality to support the face of a franchise like Steph Curry. Wiggins is only averaging 18.6 points, which is not anywhere near the stats Curry is posting.

Curry is essentially singlehandedly leading the Warriors to the playoffs.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
