    Best players of all time chosen by active nba players, this was taken back in 2019 & only one player was allowed a vote
    Michael Jordan was first
    Lebron James was second
    Kobe Bryant was third
    Kareem Abdul Jabbar was 4th
    Allen Iverson / Magic Johnson were 5th

    I believe JimmyHighRoller did a vid showing that Steph has the highest % of added wins to his team than anyone in history. Lebron is #2, and MJ is #3. People will realize over time.

    Steph is pretty much the GOAT offensively. Thinking Basketball did a vid on this. And he’s a solid net positive defender, despite the media narrative against this.

    Steph will eventually be in the GOAT conversation, especially as advanced analytics continue to develop and are able to properly measure Steph’s impact on his whole team’s winning.

      Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Demarcus Cousins, Andre Iguodola

      @Kreyzaim agree. Dray should be the goat.

    I am sitting here on my lunch break, listening to you (Perk) make this absurd comment. Steph Curry is good but the greatest little man ever? I guess you never saw Nathaniel “Tiny” Archibald play. Didn’t you play for that Boston franchise where he played for five (5) years? I guess you only know about Bill Russell? Check out some old tapes on Tiny, especially when he played for the Cincinnati Royals / Kansas City Kings. Again, that is an absurd comment.

      You really gonna sit here and pretend that Nate Archibald is better than Steph. I’m sorry but Nate would get destroyed.

      I take Steph over AI any day.

      @Prince Samurai 45 AI never had the team Steph had

    • Prince Samurai 45

      July 20, 2022 at 2:00 am

      @Dimitri Hale even if he had, he wouldn’t have one a title. Most of Steph’s teammates would not be considered as good as they are without Steph. Even Klay would not have gotten to play the way he does without being on a team with The chef. AI’s ball dominant 1 on 1 style doesn’t win championships no matter who is on the team. Go skill for skill and add them up, Curry will win almost every category.

    For every small minded person in here arguing that “Steph is 6’2 that’s not small”, everyone in the top 10 list or top 15 are 6’6 or greater. They are all more physically gifted, and athleticly gifted. So yes Steph is a Lil Guy compared to his counter part greats!

      ​@BOB T played in a weak era. surely if he has the greatest bball IQ he’d have at least 3 rings as a team owner. FFS lebron can manage a team better than MJ.

      @ninjedi You mean the way Bron managed this years Superteam by not getting into the play in tournament?? That Bron??😂😂😂

      Curry was a great Robin to me !

    • BOB T

      July 20, 2022 at 6:27 pm

      @Kevin 4x Scoring Champ Durant Not this year or in 2015. Take this great robin off this 22 GS team and Boston easily sweeps GS with Poole replacing the great robin.🤷🏽‍♂️

      @Kevin 4x Scoring Champ Durant Steph’s never been a Robin dawg. He’s been that guy since 2013 no 🧢.

    To me top 3 alltime greatest little guys of the littlelest guys that I have ever seen no numerical order are Iverson, Thomas and Curry but if I’m going to pick 1 player out of the 3 to be number 1, I would say Thomas because he was player who could dominate individually if you needed him to and also he knew how to play in a system. Iverson and Curry were more one or the other especially Iverson.

    For pro basketball players they are little guys but as person in general outside of pro basketball they are tall.

    I also heard of Nate Archibald as one the best little guys but never saw him play. I heard he’s the only player in NBA history to earn a scoring title and an assists title in the same reason.

      Curry is either top 15 or top 20 alltime, he’s for sure a top 5 point guard, and he’s a top 4 little man of alltime for sure and he can probably still move up.

    • Savon Sanders

      July 20, 2022 at 9:44 pm

      Niggah he’s that dude. Can average 25 and 10 on the ball as an ball dominant PG or average 30 and 7 off the ball. He’s better than both, no matter how yall slice it cause he’s not averaging 20+ attempts like AI.

    • Savon Sanders

      July 20, 2022 at 9:44 pm

      @Bolo Curry’s top 10 y’all love trying to move the goalpost.

    I’m 30 and 6’3 (and have been 6’3 since I was 15)

    I’ve had people tell me I’m tall my whole life, but it blows my mind when NBA people say Steph (being 6’3) is little

    • delray

      July 19, 2022 at 9:28 pm

      Nba standards that is small.. reality 6’2 6’3 is tall..

    • Rich Kid

      July 20, 2022 at 7:16 pm

    He’s not a top 5 all time he’s in the top 10 but not 5 people like to jump on a bandwagon they weren’t saying that before this year.

    Bro Kendrick Perkins needs to go back to math class bro literally Mad Dog said that he’s 5’10 and now Kendrick Perkins like Stephen Curry is taller than you by 3 inches that means Steph is 6,1 so are we just going to make Stephen Curry shorter the dude is literally six three
