You can’t be in the goat debate if you don’t play great defense sorry

Anybody that has completely changed the game of basketball is automatically an all time top 5/10 player

Steph is definitely in the top 10 but never in the goat conversation stop it nonsense. Jordan Kobe LeBron. Thatβs the only goat debate.

I find it odd that people don’t put Curry on the GOAT list. He is the GOAT becasue players like Jordan, LeBron, Magic, Bird can be emulated. The world have never seen anyone like Steph Curry.

Bro The narrative on Stephen Curry not playing defense, needs to stop. You going to sit here and tell me that he doesn’t try on defense? He led the league in steals. At least he tries and gives his best effort on defense. You know how I know.? Because I seen him get his ankles broken more than a few times. So that means you’re literally on defense.
James Harden doesn’t play defense, Luka doncic doesn’t play defense.
Stephen Curry definitely plays defense he’s just small.

People talkin about his defense to justify he not one of the goats bro he litterally 6β2 and dominating a league full of giant. Getting double teamed and triple teamed from the half of the court, he is a beast without him there is no warriors and his game the most classy ever so yeah he is top 5 and Not fifth, the greatest pg and shooter of all time

No one can deny, Curry changed how basketball is played, not just in the NBA but globally speaking. And that is an all time great right there. Personally Iβm blessed to be able to see personally how these greats MJ, Kobe, LBJ, Shaq and Curry played

No matter who you think the G.O.A.T is…. Steph Curry can shoot the basketball better than them π

Another thing worth mentioning is the fact that heβs responsible for why LeBron is not considered to go three of his finals losses come at the hands of Steph Curry

March 8, 2025 at 2:17 am
The insanity in these comments is through the roof. The Steph glazing going on in here is completely nauseating
Steph is top 10. No higher then top 8. 9 or 10 MAX.
NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! Where were you crotch goblins when he had an 8 point game and 0 assists in multiple games? Dude was struggling this year until recently.
Stop this nonsense!
@Matt.Savage
March 8, 2025 at 2:24 am
There are simply just too many All-Time greats in the history of the game for him to be top 10 let alone top 5. I have him #12 personally!π€·ββοΈ

Its 12 to choose 10. Jordan Lebron Kareem Magic Bill Wilt Shaq Kobe Duncan Bird Curry Hakeem. Whoever disagrees dk ball

Compare Stephβs ts% with anyone else. donβt just count assists, watch the game. no one gets guarded like curry. He is the system. count the impact too. What about Kobe only having 1 mvp? What about curry being the only EVER unanimous mvp? Or the best record EVER? Stephβs resume is crazy. you canβt just say paper awards like fmvp over few games determine who should be in top ten all time. Curry shouldβve won over iggy. He outplayed Durant in 3 of 4 games in 2018 finals. So that definitely doesnβt determine that. Why you think guys like SHAQ who played against all puts him in there? Lotta guys got resume of Kobe and other player in top 10 all time. No one got Stephβs impact or his resume lol. Heβs got a few things only he has done EVER. only one to have a 50/45/90 season EVER on a highest volume ever lol. Only unanimous MVP. only player to hold 72-9 record. only 2nd player to win 2 rings wihtout a top 75 player. And letβs not even talk about the impact. Heβs the face. Number 1 in jersey sales. Warriors number 1 in tv ratings. these are subjective facts. heβs the face. Even ahead of LeBron.
