    I've seen enough-Curry is the BEST EVER

    This is an old-school guy who always respected the Larry Birds and Magic Johnson's of the world, and of course MJ.

    Best player I ever saw in person was Magic Johnson at MSG.

    The object of the game is to deliver at the most crucial moments of the game. Stephen Curry is hitting 35 foot shots at will. Warriors never lose at home. I'm jumping on the bandwagon because I was too young to see Bill Russell and the Big O play. I saw Kareem. Sky hook was unstoppable. If I started a team ever, it would be Curry 1, MJ 2, Russell 3, Magic 4, Kareem in his prime 5 (or if pf was needed, Tim Duncan). Lebron was never at this level.

    Sorry MJ.....Stephen Curry BEST EVER!

    Curry would go on a run and turn an even game with chicago into a double figure lead, It wouldn't matter if the shots were 30 feet from the basket. M.J, just like Detroit, needed Rodmans defense. Curry is UNSTOPPABLE!

    Kerr and Paxson delivered for Jordan. Curry does it on his own and closes out games.

    C'mon Joey....I love ya bud but, this predction/opinion is a little premature.

    Curry doesn't play defense.

    JORDAN WAS AN ANIMAL ON D.

    No doubt Curry has Jordan dead to rights when it come to the long ball but otherwise it's a little early to say he's the best.
    He's the best player in the NBA right now but these comparisons can't be taken seriously.

    Really liking the MLB pre season write ups though.

    Good work..

    People always forget, ITs the warriors chemistry that makes each individual good. Coming from a warriors fan. Steph is great because of his team mates and the pieces he has around him.

    And Steph Defense is not even comparable to Micheal Jordan. Steph is just a very deadly shooter.

    Michael Jordan six rings, six NBA finals MVPs.

    Steph Curry one ring, zero NBA finals MVPs.

    Let's slow down here.

    The only thing we can say Curry does better than Jordan at this point is shoot. Jordan better in all other facets.

    Absurd. "You've seen it all"??

    Yes you've seen the greatest TWO YEAR RUN we've ever seen OFFENSIVELY. Get back to me in 5 years. Steph will never be half of what Jordan was DEFENSIVELY. Basketball players play both ways you know.

    To surpass greatness, you have to rewrite it.
    So if anyone is to pass Jordan as the #1 GOAT, they would have to do 150% of what he did.

    I agree with most here. Jordan is the best. Curry is the best right now, but let's not talk about this till his career is nearing its end. I'd put Kobe in front of Curry too. Jordan and Kobe were both great 2 way players. I can confidently say Curry is the greatest shooter of all time but not the greatest all around. To compare him to the likes of Jordan, Kobe, Etc... Is a bit premature at this point.

    The best shooter ever does not mean best player ever. Curry is not even top 10. He has got to be like this for at least 10 more years.

    I got carried away, from last night, but Curry can turn a 2 point deficit into a 15 point lead in the blink of the eye. He's playing horse out there and his shots aren't from behind the 3-point line, they're 30-35 feet away and more and he's not even thinking about it;comes natural.

    Bill Russell is the biggest winner of all time- I might have pulled the trigger too quickly with Curry, but Russell winning is a fact. Wilt liked statistics. Bill Russell liked championships!

    he has to score over 30 PPG for the NEXT 10 years before you consider him a top 10 player? ... Not saying he already is top 10, but I dont think he has to do this for the next 10 years to cement himself in the top10

    Yep. If only Curry had teammates like them, someone who puts up triple doubles like they're nothing, or scores 37 pts in a quarter with ease, who knows how great he could be. Oh, wait....

    Its as if Curry negates the things that we judged the other greats on. Jordan would ask for a clear out, post up, shake, bake, up and under, fade away, high arc'r bucket over a Ewing. Great work... Curry crosses half court and just throws it in for 3. Bottom line is putting the ball in the hoop right?
