Why is Steph the Greatest PG of all time


Why is Curry the Greatest PG of ALL TIME

Stephen Wardell Curry is always the hate that he doesn’t deserve. Steph might not be the fastest player on the court, most athletic, tallest, and a great defender. But what Steph separates from others is his offense, his shooting, limitless range, of & on the ball movement, handles, gravity that he gets from his players, and how he is a threat when steps half court. He is a cheat code where even he is in a slump everyone is still guarding him like a Monstar. Curry is the greatest shooter to ever live, and by that he doesn’t make himself better but his teammates better. Because of his gravity Steph: Andrew Wiggins is an all star, Poole has learned the ways of a Splash Bro, KD joins the Warriors, Draymond Green is in the Spotlight with Steph & Klay, the Warriors have the best record in the NBA in 2016, Warriors even won the 2015 finals with Green and Thompson entering their Prime and a few end of the tail vets. Like if you compared the 2015 Warriors vs 2022 Lakers that has the same constructed roster, GSW is the better team.

I mean just look at the roster.

The case for the GREATEST PG OF ALL TIME IS BETWEEN CURRY & MAGIC JOHNSON. I don’t think Oscar Robertson should be in this discussion, don’t get me wrong he is a triple double machine but because triple double is not much important in today’s generation and the NBA has change the way of playing, I put Oscar at the Top 3 spot. Now skill wise, I think Steph there is so many things that we need to discuss about, so in short I created the summary in this chart.

Curry Skill Johnson Better Outside shooting
Better Midrange shooting
Better Handles
Better Playmaking
Passing Better Stealing Better Defending Better Blocking Better Accolades Better

In skill wise, Curry is better in the offensive end but Magic is better in the defensive end. But how the game is played this generation Steph is more impactful to a team than Magic, Magic is a terrific player but if we put Magic’s prime in the NBA today I think he is a Ben Simmons with no ego. But hey Magic has won more championships than Curry and Curry’s championship doesn’t have a finals MVP, well yeah but in the 80s we can all agree that there were few superstars that made the game much easier because Superstars wasn’t a thing in the 80s, well if Steph might have KD won those championships, Magic had Kareem. Maybe KD have all those creditability but Curry has the gravity which makes KD less of a threat than Curry.

With all that being said, Steph is just better maybe not on defense, but he is better. People may not believe on this take, but if Steph won another chip without KD and a finals MVP, Steph might have it with a slight edge.
