As far as 3 point shooters, Curry is obviously the best, having made the most in NBA history. Besides the others you mention never hitting as many, they never had the same consistency and range as Steph-especially from the 'parking lot.'
Be careful, gents jk. Referring to best shooters of all time. People in Boston gonna getcha. Bird was probably the best shooter of all time, especially clutch in playoffs!! Keep on researching but better set aside a day because Larry Bird has so many it's going to take a full day to see all of them! I'm not a Bosyon fan I like the NY Nick's. But Bird was just that good!!
Many people will have different opinions where Curry is ranked as a 'greatest'. The top 3 are definitely Jordan, Bryant and James because they would be awesome in any era. The 80s NBA would smother today's NBA. 80s star players would never sit down, they always want to be on the court unlike today's. Today they would cry foul every time they got a hand check.
Great reaction. This only scratches the surface with Curry, since these highlights are all from this season. He's been in the NBA for 14 years. His last second buzzer beaters from long distance -- half court and beyond are legendary.
Been watching basketball since late 80s. Greatest & most entertaining player I’ve ever seen. Every game he takes & makes shots no one else can make, & u might have to do some research to realize how much this is true
His 3-pointer at OKC (Feb 2016) just beyond half-court with 2 seconds of the 4th quarter to tie the game and force overtime is one I can watch over and over (and it was also when Mike Breen introduced his double-bang reaction to Curry). ruclips.net/video/GEMVGHoenXM/видео.html
@@DNReacts Missed the dribble between 3 or 4 players to hit a 3 also. Curry has many more highlights that were missed here. Greatest shooter thus far in NBA history! His 4 championships can probably put him in the top 10, but there have been so many great players from previous generations, none more a freak of nature athletically than Wilt Chamberlain in my opinion, but it's hard to place Curry. The sleepy hands is usually near the end of a game or series when the team can't come back, he puts them to bed with a shot that is the nail in the coffin.
@@DNReacts he also is the only superstar ever to be up 3 games to 1 in the NBA finals and lose 3 straight. You should see all his misses in the last quarter of game 7
@@PHXNKVHXLIC he was also on the receiving end of Lebron and Kyrie, who put together possibly the best finals series by a duo in NBA history. Stop trying to disrespect the man, he's earned his place as an all time great.
Plus in 4 Finals between Curry and James teams the Warriors won 3 of them including a sweep. By the end of his career he will be top 10 if he isn't already.
Steph is high. He has changed the current game of basketball. The style of game they play has quite literally made the entire NBA follow suite and now every team is trying to play like the warriors.
Greatest shooter that ever lived. There’s no debate. He’s the best. It’s insane to watch him just turn around before the ball is even halfway to the rim because he just knows it’s going in. He’s an alien. He literally changed the way basketball is played. It’s crazy.
Kobe Bryant had the best work ethic in nba history. Steph is second but it isn’t really close. Kobe will always have the most extreme and contagious work ethic.
Steph changed the way the nba is played and coached forever. Pound 4 Pound one of the best ever. One of the most effecient shooters and scorers the greatest shooter ever The core of one of the greatest dynasties in nba history. first unanimous mvp 4 rings You cant really compare him to any other legends. The first of his kind. Keep up the nba videos! I would put steph in my top 10 (around 8-10) p.s. shooting from the corner is considered easier because its a closer shot than shooting a 3 from another position.
Something you guys have to understand, is that whenever Curry shoots the ball, you half expect him to make it. Doesn’t matter the situation, doesn’t matter the distance, doesn’t matter if he’s missed his last 10 shots. Dude hits *so many* of the wildest shots…watching him play is watching history in the making.
On one hand corner threes are more difficult because of the lack of back board supports like you said. On the other hand they are closer than straight on threes because the three point line is not a full arch. It cuts in at the corners to allow for corner threes. I’ve probably got Steph top 10 all-time. Damo: “He makes it look effortless.” No, mate. He makes it look STEPHORTLESS!
Curry had a good March Madness himself when he was at Davidson, an unheralded school that went on a decent run in the tournament. Might be a fun video for you guys to check out. He’s generally considered around #10 all-time as an NBA player. Another championship or two would move him up the rankings a bit.
Once you’re ready, please react to some of the retired greats. Jordan, Bird and Magic won’t disappoint. Bird and Magic saved the NBA. Kobe and Shaq helped move it to the level of guys today, Lebron, Luka and Curry. Then add the young guns Ja Morant, Giannis, Jayson Tatum and Ant-Man Anthony Edwards.
You’ll definitely love the Greek Freak- Giannis Antetokounmpo. He’s regarded as the best player in the league for the last few seasons and has a play style unlike any player in history.
This man is the reason I started playing ball and fell in love with this game. Later I learned there are greater players than him, steph revolutionized the game to be more 3-point dominant. He is the reason 5 year olds are also pulling us from the 3 point line.
I've been a Warriors fan since the early 90's and I gotta say, you're watching the best player to even shoot a baseketball. His buzzer beater reel is insane also.
So just to add a little info: the 3 point shots from the corners (right along the sidelines) are a bit easier than you'd think in the NBA. Because their 3-point line is further out than in college, if that line had the same circular arc all the way to the corners, there'd be nowhere to stand - so the line straightens out along the sidelines. The point being that corner 3s are a little closer to the basket than 3s taken anywhere else. They lose the help of the backboard, but because they're closer, they're made at roughly the same rate as 3 point shots taken from the middle of the 3 point arc.
You guys mentioned seeing a bit of Caitlin Clark and maybe doing a reaction. I'm glad you did this video to get a reference for how amazing Curry is. And you'll see the similarity with how Clark plays.
Warriors fan here...we LOVE Steph - he is an "alien" in his gifts and talents. He is so much more than just the greatest 3 pt shooter ever. You need to learn his story of how he started so slender and considered so undersized. As far as "all time" there are 75 top list you need to see. Curry is on it. This sport has changed and Curry is considered the reason the 3 pt became a flourishing part of the game. However that is only part of his MAGIC. His constant movement is mind boggling.
Curry is without a doubt the greatest shooter of all time. he literally changed the game; 10 years ago the kind of long 3's he takes, at the volume he takes them, would have gotten a player benched but now you see them all the time and every successful team has to have at least one sharpshooter! that being said hes still only in the top 10 GOAT conversation for a bunch of other reasons
Big warriors and Curry fan.. watch his pregame shots. He is incredible. MJ is my fave player when young but guarantee he is the goat from 3 point range. When I need an emotional pick up I watch his highlights in the playoffs/ finals. He's a wizard
hes the reason i started watching the NBA again, especially his 2015 season was insane. He is top 10 for sure, for me even top5, if he wins another title this year top3 and lets not forget about his splash brother Klay Thompson, who holds the record for most points in a quarter (37), thats also a good video to watch!
Im more on Football but i got interested in Basketball since 2015 Golden State Warriors because of this man Literally Change the Game imagine throwing from anywhere with awkward position and still got it like nothing . It seems like im so Blessed to Watch Stephen Curry 2015 and 2016 Version of him . Call me a Bandwagon Fan since 2015 but i dont care !!! He's my Lionel Messi of Basketball .
Hes top 5 all time for me MJ, LEBRON, KOBE, KAREEM, STEPH, DUNCAN, MAGIC, BIRD, HAKEEM, SHAQ, RUSSELL, WILT, DR. J, MOSES, DURANT, KAWHI, GIANNIS, DIRK, KG, BIG O
I played basketball from 9 years old till eighteen years old and I considered myself a bit of a shooter and I can tell you that shooters know the second that ball leaves their fingers whether it's going in or not. You're trying to have each shot feel exactly the same leaving your fingers each time. I never turned my back but when I was hot in practices I would scream "In" the second it left my fingers lol
Coming from an American that has followed basketball all my life, Curry is definitely top 10. He single-handedly changed the game of basketball as a whole. Before him, no team on any level, were shooting these many 3s in game. In the 90s, players took way more 2 pointers than 3 pointers. Now it is the opposite. He even has big men improving their perimeter shot because that is what it has evolved to, because of Curry
He's not just the greatest 3 point shooter, he's the greatest shooter the game has ever seen and arguably the greatest point guard. He has revolutionized the game of basketball and the way it is played. He's only 6'3 and is dominant in what he does. The game of basketball has never seen anyone like him. He's considered top 10 on the GOAT list right now but when it's all said and done he will be in the top 5 conversation and he may even be the GOAT for the younger generations that are growing up watching him.
Steph is top-10 all time. 4x champion, 2x league mvp, finals mvp, most 3s in league history both for a season and for a career. All of these highlights are from this season (I believe) which means this whole video was Steph at 34-35 years old.
As a brazillian that doesnt watch basketball at all , this guy vs lebron made me watch the 2016 finals just to get to know these 2... They made me regret not giving a f about basketball growing up. They are trully something else
You guys great reaction, I've been Curry and GSW fan for a long time now and Curry is my favorite of all time he is different from everyone else not only because of his shooting ability, you guys has a lot to learn about Curry and you will be definitely amaze on what he can do with basketball it's unbelievable......
Curry is a new entrant into the top ten all time discussion, at around #10. For 3 pt shooting and winning rings. There is no official list, that's my guess as to a reasonable consensus take. Because of the different positions and eras, a precise list is impossible - one can only really speak intelligently about a group of players. Like the GOAT debate - I believe the most precise we can be is to say these five players (your particular list) are "in the conversation." My own GOAT list, in no order, is Bird, Kareem. MJ, LeBron, and Bill Russell. Even then, people will say I'm crazy - where's Magic? Wilt? Shaq? See what I mean?
@@pyrotechnic96 I don't see it. Apart from Magic all of those guys had ELITE defence (in addition to being unstoppable scorers) and Steph is good at best on that end.
@@Kashby281 In terms of silverware he's right there with the best of them. Without counting the KD years he's still at 2 which puts him even Hakeem. He's the most revolutionary player of them all. Offensively only Wilt and Shaq can compare imo
@@pyrotechnic96 Either way that still doesn't address the point that he's a one sided player. He's probably the best offensive player of all those guys except for Jordan, Bron and Wilt but not by much. And he's WAY worse on defence.
Your top 3 are great but don't leave out those who came before: Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain (who one year averaged 50pts/game--yep!), Bill Russell (Russell won 11 NBA titles with the Boston Celtics), and the "Big O", Oscar Robertson.
Steph Curry is without a doubt top 10 all time, he’s still playing at his peak right now, just dropped 50 pts in a game 7 (Never done before) some have him as high as top 5 some have him as low as 10-8… but since he’s still in his prime (Playing wise, he’s a older player now at 35) its hard to cement him anywhere when he’s still playing at the highest level and is still regarded as the best player in the world at 35.. now as far as his potential, sheesh, if he wins the championship this year dropping 50 bombs like he did today, that would put him at 5 Rings, not even Lebron has 5 so he would be solidified as Top 5 and his potential is easily a top 3 player of all time, if he continues to win. I currently rank him 6-5Th all time Michael Jordan Lebron James Kareem Kobe Bryant Steph Curry Magic Johnson Tim Duncan Shaq Bird Hakeem
Steph Curry is without question the greatest 3-point shooter to ever touch a basketball. He's probably a top-10 player of all-time just in general. He's much more than just a great shooter. It's just Curry's shooting is soooo ridiculously good that it overlooks a lot of what he does on the basketball court
Watch curry’s March madness performance at Davidson and this video doesn’t do Steph justice he has so many highlights especially back when he won his first 3 championships.
Y’all need to watch a longer highlight reel. He has some insane shots throughout the years that you would never see someone hit on consistent basis. I think this is just this year and he is 35 this year if I believe
Steph isn't exactly in the GOAT conversation with Lebron and MJ, he's not an all-around dominant physical presence like that. He's something different and utterly unique, and you could make a good argument that he has done more to change the game than either of those guys. There is basketball before the phenomenon that is Steph Curry, and then after: different game, different demands.... It's a weird place to be in: not the GOAT , and yet more transformative than the GOAT (whichever one you choose). A unicorn.
Just for your information. He does the good night celebration when the score was getting close and his shot made it almost impossible for the other team to come back at the end of a game.
Stephen Curry introduced his "night night" gesture in the 2021-2022 NBA Playoffs and it continued through the Finals. It was his way of putting his opponents "to bed" after clutch shots towards the end of the game to indicate "game over". When he was asked about the reason, he told the press that's what he does with his son, Canon, when it's time for bed. It caught on so much last year that may athletes - even outside of basketball - imitated him. After GSW won the NBA Finals last year, Curry Brand released a "Night Night" tee shirt, which Steve Kerr wore at the Championship parade in San Francisco.
Steph is by far my favorite player ever. He is the whole package. His skills are undeniable, he changed the game for ever, he is a genuinely nice guy that plays a very selfless basketball. You just can't hate him. He is funny, respectful, a good sportsman and he also inspired a whole generation of future players because he doesn't have any physical features that make him stand out. He is small for the NBA at 6'3, he is not the fastest but also not the strongest. Just an average guy that perfected a certain skillset. I really hope you guys check him out a bit more in the future ^^ There are som amazing compilations from him and how other players talk about him ^^
6:12 Curry is (almost undisputedly) the best pure shooter of all time. He holds the all-time record for career three pointers, is the only player to be voted the unanimous league MVP, and has won four championships. I'd say the vast majority would put Curry in their top 10 players of all-time if not top five.
The 3's are actually shorter distance from the sides. If you look at the court you'll notice the 3 point arch changes to a straight line down the sidelines. Some players have made a career of making these shorter " corner 3's" Note: There is only a 3ft space between the 3 point line and the sideline on the edges.
Steph Curry is already in the top 10 greatest of all time. When its all said and done, he will be top 5 for sure. He revolutionized the game of basketball. Hes that great
read the thumbnail while scrolling quickly and i thought this would be a video on ole gunnar solskjaer and then i get surprised with steph curry hahahah
He started the night night celebration during the NBA playoffs last year. In the final moments of the series when the Warriors were about to win and move on to the next round, Curry would do that celebration. Like good night, time for bed. He has kids and that's where he picked it up
So to give context for the “night-night” celebration. He did the celebration for last year’s playoffs. And he would do it as a sign to tell the other team and the fans that the game was over. Signaling that with his shot he has put the game to bed and the opponent was finished. Aka night night.
@C Teal there is no debate. Its Jordan and then everyone else. The difference between Jordan and James in career accomplishments is a hof career. And Jordan did more in less time played
General consensus has him at top 10. And that’s honestly incredible because other than Magic and Isiah Thomas (another couple you should look into) he is the only point guard to lead a team to a championship. Especially impressive considering he isn’t especially big or imposing for his position.
Just started watching you guys and y’all give some genuine reactions so much respect. Not sure if you have yet but you should react to Damien Lillard highlights if you get the chance
Curry is def top 10 and arguably top 5. The dude is a freak of nature and changed the game forever . People discredit his standing now since he’s still playing but I think he will land himself in top 5 unanimously by the time he’s done and people start to look at his full body of work.
He is the the #1 3pt. Shooter ever in the NBA. He's almost made much longer shots than depicted in this video. There are more Curry videos out there that show him doing even better.
shots from the side are actually easier since they're a little bit closer to the rim than the front of the 3 point line. One of the most efficient shots in basketball is a corner 3.
Great video! Steph is my favorite player and he is the greatest shooter of all-time! I would suggest watching a compilation of his best 3's but there's so much for you to see about the NBA (LeBron😂). You've got a sub from across the pond 🇺🇸
You know what’s crazy is I don’t think we have this conversation enough about him. He’s got 4 nba championships two mvps one finals mvp and if he wins another championship I would seriously consider him top 5
Curry had to change his shot mechanics during high school, once he realized his release point would not work in the NBA. Also the sides of the 3 point arch are closer to the hoop, and the corner is the closest 3, distance wise.
The folded hands on the side of his face thing. He says "night night" the first few times, like he's putting the kids to bed. Aka game over. Usually happens when he hits a late 3 that effectively puts the game out of reach. Also called a dagger. 😴😴 night night
loved the video, you also have to take into account the college players in march madness don’t have free range to shoot like he does, most of these shots steph curry shoots would be considered “bad” shots but for him they’re what he looks for
On Steph being Top 10. He’s the shortest guy in that list. He doesn’t have the height, the muscle, power, explosiveness… but he is SO SMART with movement and is the greatest shooter ever. The fact that he’s in the conversation at his size is a huge achievement. Also remember - Steph Curry changed the game of basketball. He wasn’t the first to shoot so many threes. But he was so consistently amazing with it that basketball itself witnessed a revolution with shooting beyond the arc becoming a mandatory skill to be consistently top. He is the all time leader is 3 pointers and every three he makes… is a new record 😊
To answer your question boys, that celebration is called the “Night Night”.. check out the 2022 NBA Playoffs where he was exclusively delivering that CELEBRATION
Steph will go down as one of the most important players ever because he literally CHANGED the way basketball is played today with his long distance shooting. He made the 3 point shot the most important shot in the NBA.
these clips are from this season and steph is 35 years old and been in the nba since 2009 (14 seasons) and a 4 time nba champion 1 time finals mvp 2 time mvp (one mvp was a unanimous decision that’s the only time that has ever happened in nba history) and he is 1st all time in total 3 pointers made. for most people he is in the top 15 best players ever but for me he is in my top 10 but that’s a matter of my opinion. and also steph curry had an insane march madness when he was in college so if you want to watch that i would recommend it since you said you enjoyed march madness
without a doubt, best shooter of all time. No one is better. in terms of the GOAT argument, unfortunately he's not in the conversation because he doesn't do it on the defense side of the ball. He has depended on his teammates to cover his deficiency on defense, and is lucky he has had 2 of the better defensive players in the league playing with him most of his career.
Completely disagree. He is actually in the conversation. Some people put him top 10 and others have him at top 12. It all depends on how you see him. Also, his defense has improved over the last few years compare to when he first got into the nba. I believe he also lead the NBA in the number of steal in 2016 if I’m not mistaken.
Need to watch his career highlights rather than just this season! Also, it is hard to get context for how insane these shots are. Encourage you to go to a basketball court and stand as far from the basket as he is making these shots from. That will give more perspective!
You should see Curry's highlights in college during March Madness. He was doing s..t like this in college. If the 09 draft was done over, knowing what we know now... there's no question Curry would be the #1 pick in the draft. He just fell to the Warriors at #7 becuz teams worried about his size. He was really skinny coming out of college, and they didnt know if that would translate well to the NBA
Great vid! Two things: 1. As far as Steph's ranking amongst the GOATs, he's at least top 5. He's won 4 championships, 3 of which were against Lebron James. 2. You gotta see his unanimous MVP season, he was absolutely nuts. His shooting splits were something like 50% FG, 45% 3P, and 91%FT. Unbelievable.
As a fellow Brit who also follows Basketball (mainly thanks to Steph Curry), I can honestly say that the video you watched was not even close to being some of his most amazing work. He's been in the NBA since 2009 and suffered a lot of derision from scouts, analysts and fans because he did not fit the mould of what an NBA player 'should be' (6'6 and built like a brick %&^house), as well as a spate of ankle related injuries early on. Over a decade later he has not only changed the way the game is played, but has also paved the way for players of smaller stature but higher skill level, to be accepted within the game as more than a novelty. However when it comes to the 'Top 10' argument, this guy gets my number 1 spot because he has achieved everything he has (multiple championships and awards as well as reimagining the way the game is played) without the "physical gifts" a Michael Jordan, Kevin Durant or Lebron James might have. But the sports critics will constantly knock him down saying he is too small and weak. And all this with the 7' guys saying that they fear him. The man is a living legend and its only after he's gone that some of these berks will wake up and regret they didn't appreciate him when they had him.
Steph is the 2nd greatest point guard in NBA history, by quite a big gap. Him and Magic Johnson are leaps and bounds above every other point guard who has ever played in terms of accolades and accomplishments despite playing the position and game completely differently. He's one of the most efficient scorers in history and a top 10-15 player of all time.
Gents, there's only two guys in the greatest ever conversation. It's (the unbelievable) Michael Jordan and (the most dominant player to step on a court) Wilt Chamberlain. Wilt Chamberlain still holds 72 NBA records and is undoubtedly the greatest athlete to step on a basketball court. They're on a different level than the others you named. Lebron has compiled alot of stats but he's not in the conversation with the two guys I named. Kobe is farther down on that list.
To be Fair March Madness was when the whole Country found out Steph Curry could do this😮…he’s definitely top TEN where at is Preference in that and that depend on how long you been watching but …….MJ is the absolute GOAT 🐐 PERIOD….Every one is fighting for second place 🥈
I am a San Francisco native 🌁. I was too young to remember Rick Barry. I was old enough to see Chris Mullin, who was 1 of the top 3 point shooters then. Stephen Curry surpasses both Hall of Fame players! 🤯 Don Nelson was the head coach for these last 2 players. Bob Fitzgerald on much of the play by play on 95.7 The Game. Marv Albert on some of the ESPN or ABC highlights. Unbelievable shots! The Warriors won the NBA Finals in 1975🏆 The team needed to wait another 40 years to win another title. Who could have predicted this?! 🤯 Opinion. Stephen Curry belongs in the Top 10. I place him between 5 and 6.
As usual for player’s best games, you can watch playoff games or top scores regular season. NBA All Star game 2022. 50 pts 16/21 3 pointers. Average 5 3 points attempts per quarter. Watch RUclips pre game warm ups, made 103 consecutive 3 points shots. How about right before he exits into the locker room, made 4 consecutive shots just throw the ball to the other end of the court.
On top of all this, Steph is easily one of the best passers in the league. The wow factor is off the charts with him. Usually top three are considered Jordan, Lebron and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (definitely a player worth checking out. Was all time scorer until this year when Lebron passed him). Kobe was never on their level really in terms of efficiency and overall productivity, but at his best he could really wow you and his game really stayed pretty consistent as he got older. Insane work ethic and IQ. A few current players that have amazing highlights are Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Russel Westbrook, Damian Lillard, Giannis Antetokunmpo, Nikola Jokic, and Ja Morant.
People forget the ONLY center to AVG 50 points and ALSO the only Center to lead the NBA in assists 1 year. Maybe because you have to be 70+ to see him play.
@@ericjorgensen3911 right. It’s very difficult to compare players from that era, and I’ve never heard any experts say different. Trying to compare a Cousy or a Wilt to modern players just seems so apples and oranges. I’ve seen a good amount of Wilt footage though. With all the advancements since then I generally start my lists newer but it’s just because it’s conceptually easier for me. It’s why so many people have trouble placing Russell, right? And the top three i listed aren’t my top three necessarily, just what I find to be the most popular choices, especially lately.
@@TES-541 Today with all the media you instantly can see the action from all around the NBA. Back in the 60-70 you got like Game of the Week, no I Phones, no 24 hour sports network. Plus the rules have changed to make more offense. If you go by stats Wilt was such a stud. But yah, most lists are todays maybe 30 years ago as people have watched them on TV/ESPN etc.
@@ericjorgensen3911 Right but also the athletes are completely different. Nutrition, medical teams, etc. And plus there's no advanced analytics from back then it's really hard to gauge. Comparing Wilt to say, Hakeem, is incredibly tough.
Curry will literally shoot a shot from the sideline next to the opposing bench/team, turn around and talk shit to them before it even goes in because he knows it’s going in……he’s that good

As far as 3 point shooters, Curry is obviously the best, having made the most in NBA history. Besides the others you mention never hitting as many, they never had the same consistency and range as Steph-especially from the 'parking lot.'
Curry is arguably top 12 player all time some ppl have him in the top 10 but most keep him right around 11 or 12 all time
Be careful, gents jk. Referring to best shooters of all time. People in Boston gonna getcha. Bird was probably the best shooter of all time, especially clutch in playoffs!! Keep on researching but better set aside a day because Larry Bird has so many it's going to take a full day to see all of them! I'm not a Bosyon fan I like the NY Nick's. But Bird was just that good!!
You guys should check out Maxamillion711 . Makes great nba highlight videos for players
Many people will have different opinions where Curry is ranked as a 'greatest'. The top 3 are definitely Jordan, Bryant and James because they would be awesome in any era. The 80s NBA would smother today's NBA. 80s star players would never sit down, they always want to be on the court unlike today's. Today they would cry foul every time they got a hand check.
Great reaction. This only scratches the surface with Curry, since these highlights are all from this season. He's been in the NBA for 14 years. His last second buzzer beaters from long distance -- half court and beyond are legendary.
We will definitely get to those! Thank you 🙏🏼
Been watching basketball since late 80s. Greatest & most entertaining player I’ve ever seen. Every game he takes & makes shots no one else can make, & u might have to do some research to realize how much this is true
His 3-pointer at OKC (Feb 2016) just beyond half-court with 2 seconds of the 4th quarter to tie the game and force overtime is one I can watch over and over (and it was also when Mike Breen introduced his double-bang reaction to Curry). ruclips.net/video/GEMVGHoenXM/видео.html
@@thej1615 have a time out choose not to use it...
@@DNReacts Missed the dribble between 3 or 4 players to hit a 3 also. Curry has many more highlights that were missed here. Greatest shooter thus far in NBA history! His 4 championships can probably put him in the top 10, but there have been so many great players from previous generations, none more a freak of nature athletically than Wilt Chamberlain in my opinion, but it's hard to place Curry. The sleepy hands is usually near the end of a game or series when the team can't come back, he puts them to bed with a shot that is the nail in the coffin.
What’s cool about Steph is that you are actively watching a living legend. No one has shot the ball like him and you can still watch him live.
You should watch his warm-up shots at practice or before a game. Some of the greatest shots you’ll see. He makes it look easy and routine
@@emtadamd9488 proof that, for him, it IS easy and routine😂
That's true. I just wish he played better with the Golden State Warriors against the LA Lakers throughout the 2023 NBA Playoffs.
Steph is the leading 3 point scorer in the NBA. He is 35 years old and still playing great basketball. Thanks
Thank you!
@@DNReacts he also is the only superstar ever to be up 3 games to 1 in the NBA finals and lose 3 straight. You should see all his misses in the last quarter of game 7
@@PHXNKVHXLIC they should also watch curry absolutely cook the celtics with one of the greatest finals series ever
@@PHXNKVHXLIC he was also on the receiving end of Lebron and Kyrie, who put together possibly the best finals series by a duo in NBA history. Stop trying to disrespect the man, he's earned his place as an all time great.
Plus in 4 Finals between Curry and James teams the Warriors won 3 of them including a sweep. By the end of his career he will be top 10 if he isn't already.
Steph is high. He has changed the current game of basketball. The style of game they play has quite literally made the entire NBA follow suite and now every team is trying to play like the warriors.
He’s so so good!
The impressive thing is how quick his release is. He barely gets set before he shoots the ball!
That’s what I noticed! Very impressive!
Greatest shooter that ever lived. There’s no debate. He’s the best. It’s insane to watch him just turn around before the ball is even halfway to the rim because he just knows it’s going in. He’s an alien. He literally changed the way basketball is played. It’s crazy.
There's a video of Steph making 105 straight 3's in practice from the right corner
His work ethic is second to none. Good guy, family man, works his ass off. Changed the game forever. What he did for Under Armour is crazy.
Kobe Bryant had the best work ethic in nba history. Steph is second but it isn’t really close. Kobe will always have the most extreme and contagious work ethic.
Steph changed the way the nba is played and coached forever.
Pound 4 Pound one of the best ever.
One of the most effecient shooters and scorers
the greatest shooter ever
The core of one of the greatest dynasties in nba history.
first unanimous mvp
4 rings
You cant really compare him to any other legends. The first of his kind.
Keep up the nba videos!
I would put steph in my top 10 (around 8-10)
p.s. shooting from the corner is considered easier because its a closer shot than shooting a 3 from another position.
Pay attention to how hard people guard him, even way past the 3 point line.
Players know, and guard him, sooo deep.
the way basketball is played today (lots of pull up 3s) is all cause of this man right here.
Lowkey ruined the way basketball is played in courts now 😂 when I was younger I was the kid who shot 3’s cause I couldn’t drive
Something you guys have to understand, is that whenever Curry shoots the ball, you half expect him to make it. Doesn’t matter the situation, doesn’t matter the distance, doesn’t matter if he’s missed his last 10 shots. Dude hits *so many* of the wildest shots…watching him play is watching history in the making.
On one hand corner threes are more difficult because of the lack of back board supports like you said. On the other hand they are closer than straight on threes because the three point line is not a full arch. It cuts in at the corners to allow for corner threes.
I’ve probably got Steph top 10 all-time.
Damo: “He makes it look effortless.” No, mate. He makes it look STEPHORTLESS!
Appreciate the comment Roger 🙏🏼
Lmao I was gonna say he makes it look… stephortless 😂
😂
Curry had a good March Madness himself when he was at Davidson, an unheralded school that went on a decent run in the tournament. Might be a fun video for you guys to check out. He’s generally considered around #10 all-time as an NBA player. Another championship or two would move him up the rankings a bit.
Thank you for bringing up his college career. That's when I became a fan
Once you’re ready, please react to some of the retired greats. Jordan, Bird and Magic won’t disappoint. Bird and Magic saved the NBA. Kobe and Shaq helped move it to the level of guys today, Lebron, Luka and Curry. Then add the young guns Ja Morant, Giannis, Jayson Tatum and Ant-Man Anthony Edwards.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Luka shouldn't be anywhere near any of these names whatsoever. LeBron and Curry are top 10 all time. Luka has done literally nothing.
You’ll definitely love the Greek Freak- Giannis Antetokounmpo. He’s regarded as the best player in the league for the last few seasons and has a play style unlike any player in history.
@@derpderpin1568 Possibly but he did single handedly end The Suns’ playoff run last year. That might be more of me not being a Chris Paul fan.
Larry and magic ultimate mixtape !!! Been recommending for like 2 weeks !! 👍🏽
He literally changed the game.
This man is the reason I started playing ball and fell in love with this game. Later I learned there are greater players than him, steph revolutionized the game to be more 3-point dominant. He is the reason 5 year olds are also pulling us from the 3 point line.
I've been a Warriors fan since the early 90's and I gotta say, you're watching the best player to even shoot a baseketball. His buzzer beater reel is insane also.
He's in the top 5 all time. Number of rings and records set dictate that. Best 5 in no particular order - Jordan, Lebron, Bird, Russel, Steph.
So just to add a little info: the 3 point shots from the corners (right along the sidelines) are a bit easier than you'd think in the NBA. Because their 3-point line is further out than in college, if that line had the same circular arc all the way to the corners, there'd be nowhere to stand - so the line straightens out along the sidelines. The point being that corner 3s are a little closer to the basket than 3s taken anywhere else. They lose the help of the backboard, but because they're closer, they're made at roughly the same rate as 3 point shots taken from the middle of the 3 point arc.
Thanks Adam, appreciate the context!
You guys mentioned seeing a bit of Caitlin Clark and maybe doing a reaction. I'm glad you did this video to get a reference for how amazing Curry is. And you'll see the similarity with how Clark plays.
most people would say he un debatably top 12 all time, i would personally say he’s top 10 all time
Warriors fan here...we LOVE Steph - he is an "alien" in his gifts and talents. He is so much more than just the greatest 3 pt shooter ever. You need to learn his story of how he started so slender and considered so undersized. As far as "all time" there are 75 top list you need to see. Curry is on it. This sport has changed and Curry is considered the reason the 3 pt became a flourishing part of the game. However that is only part of his MAGIC. His constant movement is mind boggling.
he's def top 15, maybe even top 10
Curry is without a doubt the greatest shooter of all time. he literally changed the game; 10 years ago the kind of long 3's he takes, at the volume he takes them, would have gotten a player benched but now you see them all the time and every successful team has to have at least one sharpshooter! that being said hes still only in the top 10 GOAT conversation for a bunch of other reasons
Completely agree with this!
Big warriors and Curry fan.. watch his pregame shots. He is incredible. MJ is my fave player when young but guarantee he is the goat from 3 point range. When I need an emotional pick up I watch his highlights in the playoffs/ finals. He's a wizard
Curry best shooter ever , nice reaction guys ! A lot of nba content to watch
hes the reason i started watching the NBA again, especially his 2015 season was insane. He is top 10 for sure, for me even top5, if he wins another title this year top3
and lets not forget about his splash brother Klay Thompson, who holds the record for most points in a quarter (37), thats also a good video to watch!
Im more on Football but i got interested in Basketball since 2015 Golden State Warriors because of this man Literally Change the Game imagine throwing from anywhere with awkward position and still got it like nothing . It seems like im so Blessed to Watch Stephen Curry 2015 and 2016 Version of him .
Call me a Bandwagon Fan since 2015 but i dont care !!! He's my Lionel Messi of Basketball .
The Zach Lavine/Aaron Gordon dunk contest would be fun to watch you guys react to
And the Vince Carter dunk contest
Such a quick release, beautiful shots, the noise of just the net 🤌
💯
His teammate, Klay Thompson is also a great 3pt shooter. Once scored 37 points in a single quarter. Was 9-9 from 3pt range
Hes top 5 all time for me
MJ, LEBRON, KOBE, KAREEM, STEPH, DUNCAN, MAGIC, BIRD, HAKEEM, SHAQ,
RUSSELL, WILT, DR. J, MOSES, DURANT, KAWHI, GIANNIS, DIRK, KG, BIG O
I played basketball from 9 years old till eighteen years old and I considered myself a bit of a shooter and I can tell you that shooters know the second that ball leaves their fingers whether it's going in or not. You're trying to have each shot feel exactly the same leaving your fingers each time. I never turned my back but when I was hot in practices I would scream "In" the second it left my fingers lol
Facts.....
I hope kids don't start start turning their backs on shots. Only Steph can do that 😂
“Green beam” 😂 I remember cause of 2K people would scream that on real courts
Coming from an American that has followed basketball all my life, Curry is definitely top 10. He single-handedly changed the game of basketball as a whole. Before him, no team on any level, were shooting these many 3s in game. In the 90s, players took way more 2 pointers than 3 pointers. Now it is the opposite. He even has big men improving their perimeter shot because that is what it has evolved to, because of Curry
Steph is insane. He never fails to impress me and he is much more likable than other big stars (besides Giannis ofc)
He is a really likeable guy!
He's not just the greatest 3 point shooter, he's the greatest shooter the game has ever seen and arguably the greatest point guard. He has revolutionized the game of basketball and the way it is played. He's only 6'3 and is dominant in what he does. The game of basketball has never seen anyone like him. He's considered top 10 on the GOAT list right now but when it's all said and done he will be in the top 5 conversation and he may even be the GOAT for the younger generations that are growing up watching him.
Stephen Curry is in my top ten and I've been watching basketball since the late 1980s
Steph is top-10 all time. 4x champion, 2x league mvp, finals mvp, most 3s in league history both for a season and for a career. All of these highlights are from this season (I believe) which means this whole video was Steph at 34-35 years old.
As a brazillian that doesnt watch basketball at all , this guy vs lebron made me watch the 2016 finals just to get to know these 2... They made me regret not giving a f about basketball growing up. They are trully something else
You guys great reaction, I've been Curry and GSW fan for a long time now and Curry is my favorite of all time he is different from everyone else not only because of his shooting ability, you guys has a lot to learn about Curry and you will be definitely amaze on what he can do with basketball it's unbelievable......
Curry is a new entrant into the top ten all time discussion, at around #10. For 3 pt shooting and winning rings. There is no official list, that's my guess as to a reasonable consensus take. Because of the different positions and eras, a precise list is impossible - one can only really speak intelligently about a group of players. Like the GOAT debate - I believe the most precise we can be is to say these five players (your particular list) are "in the conversation." My own GOAT list, in no order, is Bird, Kareem. MJ, LeBron, and Bill Russell. Even then, people will say I'm crazy - where's Magic? Wilt? Shaq? See what I mean?
One thing about that video is, those are just the God Mode moments from THIS season.
Can’t wait to see more!
@@DNReacts Look at last year's NBA finals against the Boston Celtics. Games 4, 5, 6. Steph carried the team.
Steph is definitely top 10 all time.
Definitely??? No way. Jordan, LeBron, Kareem, Bird, Magic, Shaq, Hakeem, Duncan, Kobe, Wilt, are all better.
@@Kashby281 I think he's basically in the argument with that second tier of guys. Bird, Magic, Hakeem, Duncan, Kobe, Wilt are around him to me.
@@pyrotechnic96 I don't see it. Apart from Magic all of those guys had ELITE defence (in addition to being unstoppable scorers) and Steph is good at best on that end.
@@Kashby281 In terms of silverware he's right there with the best of them. Without counting the KD years he's still at 2 which puts him even Hakeem. He's the most revolutionary player of them all. Offensively only Wilt and Shaq can compare imo
@@pyrotechnic96 Either way that still doesn't address the point that he's a one sided player. He's probably the best offensive player of all those guys except for Jordan, Bron and Wilt but not by much. And he's WAY worse on defence.
Your top 3 are great but don't leave out those who came before: Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain (who one year averaged 50pts/game--yep!), Bill Russell (Russell won 11 NBA titles with the Boston Celtics), and the "Big O", Oscar Robertson.
Steph Curry is without a doubt top 10 all time, he’s still playing at his peak right now, just dropped 50 pts in a game 7 (Never done before) some have him as high as top 5 some have him as low as 10-8… but since he’s still in his prime (Playing wise, he’s a older player now at 35) its hard to cement him anywhere when he’s still playing at the highest level and is still regarded as the best player in the world at 35.. now as far as his potential, sheesh, if he wins the championship this year dropping 50 bombs like he did today, that would put him at 5 Rings, not even Lebron has 5 so he would be solidified as Top 5 and his potential is easily a top 3 player of all time, if he continues to win. I currently rank him 6-5Th all time
Michael Jordan
Lebron James
Kareem
Kobe Bryant
Steph Curry
Magic Johnson
Tim Duncan
Shaq
Bird
Hakeem
Steph’s dad played in the league. He and his brother literally grew up on NBA courts, getting tips from nba legends since the day they were born.
Steph Curry is without question the greatest 3-point shooter to ever touch a basketball. He's probably a top-10 player of all-time just in general. He's much more than just a great shooter. It's just Curry's shooting is soooo ridiculously good that it overlooks a lot of what he does on the basketball court
Watch curry’s March madness performance at Davidson and this video doesn’t do Steph justice he has so many highlights especially back when he won his first 3 championships.
Y’all need to watch a longer highlight reel. He has some insane shots throughout the years that you would never see someone hit on consistent basis. I think this is just this year and he is 35 this year if I believe
Your baseball reactions were awesome can't wait for more of the basketball vids
Thank you Jacob!
You guys definitely need to watch his highlights from like 2014-2018/2019
2021 was literally one of his top 2 seasons.
Steph isn't exactly in the GOAT conversation with Lebron and MJ, he's not an all-around dominant physical presence like that. He's something different and utterly unique, and you could make a good argument that he has done more to change the game than either of those guys. There is basketball before the phenomenon that is Steph Curry, and then after: different game, different demands.... It's a weird place to be in: not the GOAT , and yet more transformative than the GOAT (whichever one you choose). A unicorn.
LeBron should never be mentioned in the same breath as Jordan
Just for your information. He does the good night celebration when the score was getting close and his shot made it almost impossible for the other team to come back at the end of a game.
Stephen Curry introduced his "night night" gesture in the 2021-2022 NBA Playoffs and it continued through the Finals. It was his way of putting his opponents "to bed" after clutch shots towards the end of the game to indicate "game over". When he was asked about the reason, he told the press that's what he does with his son, Canon, when it's time for bed. It caught on so much last year that may athletes - even outside of basketball - imitated him. After GSW won the NBA Finals last year, Curry Brand released a "Night Night" tee shirt, which Steve Kerr wore at the Championship parade in San Francisco.
Steph is by far my favorite player ever. He is the whole package. His skills are undeniable, he changed the game for ever, he is a genuinely nice guy that plays a very selfless basketball. You just can't hate him. He is funny, respectful, a good sportsman and he also inspired a whole generation of future players because he doesn't have any physical features that make him stand out. He is small for the NBA at 6'3, he is not the fastest but also not the strongest. Just an average guy that perfected a certain skillset.
I really hope you guys check him out a bit more in the future ^^ There are som amazing compilations from him and how other players talk about him ^^
huge nba fan here. been looking for this content
6:12 Curry is (almost undisputedly) the best pure shooter of all time. He holds the all-time record for career three pointers, is the only player to be voted the unanimous league MVP, and has won four championships. I'd say the vast majority would put Curry in their top 10 players of all-time if not top five.
The 3's are actually shorter distance from the sides. If you look at the court you'll notice the 3 point arch changes to a straight line down the sidelines. Some players have made a career of making these shorter " corner 3's"
Note: There is only a 3ft space between the 3 point line and the sideline on the edges.
Steph Curry is already in the top 10 greatest of all time. When its all said and done, he will be top 5 for sure. He revolutionized the game of basketball. Hes that great
read the thumbnail while scrolling quickly and i thought this would be a video on ole gunnar solskjaer and then i get surprised with steph curry hahahah
He started the night night celebration during the NBA playoffs last year. In the final moments of the series when the Warriors were about to win and move on to the next round, Curry would do that celebration. Like good night, time for bed. He has kids and that's where he picked it up
So to give context for the “night-night” celebration. He did the celebration for last year’s playoffs. And he would do it as a sign to tell the other team and the fans that the game was over. Signaling that with his shot he has put the game to bed and the opponent was finished. Aka night night.
There's a GOAT comparison video that breaks down both careers of Jordan and LeBron. Extremely well done and worth a watch
Thank you 🙏🏼
@DN Reacts here's the link if it makes it easier...
ruclips.net/video/tl3mR6eoEa8/видео.html
The great nba debate of our time.
@C Teal there is no debate. Its Jordan and then everyone else. The difference between Jordan and James in career accomplishments is a hof career. And Jordan did more in less time played
General consensus has him at top 10. And that’s honestly incredible because other than Magic and Isiah Thomas (another couple you should look into) he is the only point guard to lead a team to a championship. Especially impressive considering he isn’t especially big or imposing for his position.
Just started watching you guys and y’all give some genuine reactions so much respect. Not sure if you have yet but you should react to Damien Lillard highlights if you get the chance
Thanks Will, really appreciate that! Have added Lillard Highlights to our list too.
@@DNReacts appreciate it! Keep up the good work
Curry is def top 10 and arguably top 5. The dude is a freak of nature and changed the game forever . People discredit his standing now since he’s still playing but I think he will land himself in top 5 unanimously by the time he’s done and people start to look at his full body of work.
He is the the #1 3pt. Shooter ever in the NBA. He's almost made much longer shots than depicted in this video. There are more Curry videos out there that show him doing even better.
shots from the side are actually easier since they're a little bit closer to the rim than the front of the 3 point line. One of the most efficient shots in basketball is a corner 3.
Great video! Steph is my favorite player and he is the greatest shooter of all-time! I would suggest watching a compilation of his best 3's but there's so much for you to see about the NBA (LeBron😂).
You've got a sub from across the pond 🇺🇸
We intend to watch a lot of NBA so we will definitely get back to Steph! Lebron coming soon! Appreciate the support 🤝🏻
You know what’s crazy is I don’t think we have this conversation enough about him. He’s got 4 nba championships two mvps one finals mvp and if he wins another championship I would seriously consider him top 5
Curry had to change his shot mechanics during high school, once he realized his release point would not work in the NBA.
Also the sides of the 3 point arch are closer to the hoop, and the corner is the closest 3, distance wise.
The folded hands on the side of his face thing. He says "night night" the first few times, like he's putting the kids to bed. Aka game over. Usually happens when he hits a late 3 that effectively puts the game out of reach. Also called a dagger. 😴😴 night night
Ya'll should react to top NBA poster dunks or blocks.
loved the video, you also have to take into account the college players in march madness don’t have free range to shoot like he does, most of these shots steph curry shoots would be considered “bad” shots but for him they’re what he looks for
Thank you Boba. Appreciate the comment!
On Steph being Top 10. He’s the shortest guy in that list. He doesn’t have the height, the muscle, power, explosiveness… but he is SO SMART with movement and is the greatest shooter ever. The fact that he’s in the conversation at his size is a huge achievement.
Also remember - Steph Curry changed the game of basketball. He wasn’t the first to shoot so many threes. But he was so consistently amazing with it that basketball itself witnessed a revolution with shooting beyond the arc becoming a mandatory skill to be consistently top.
He is the all time leader is 3 pointers and every three he makes… is a new record 😊
Curry is literally the best 3 point shooter in the history of basketball. He shattered all records
Great reaction guy I think you would love Kyrie Irving or Ja Morant
Thanks Blake!
Yall should watch Curry college highlights as well. He came from a small school called Davison and nobody thought he would be this good in the Nba
To answer your question boys, that celebration is called the “Night Night”.. check out the 2022 NBA Playoffs where he was exclusively delivering that CELEBRATION
Steph will go down as one of the most important players ever because he literally CHANGED the way basketball is played today with his long distance shooting. He made the 3 point shot the most important shot in the NBA.
as i've seen mentioned already. THIS IS JUST THIS SEASON!! He just turned 35 years old...
these clips are from this season and steph is 35 years old and been in the nba since 2009 (14 seasons) and a 4 time nba champion 1 time finals mvp 2 time mvp (one mvp was a unanimous decision that’s the only time that has ever happened in nba history) and he is 1st all time in total 3 pointers made. for most people he is in the top 15 best players ever but for me he is in my top 10 but that’s a matter of my opinion. and also steph curry had an insane march madness when he was in college so if you want to watch that i would recommend it since you said you enjoyed march madness
without a doubt, best shooter of all time. No one is better. in terms of the GOAT argument, unfortunately he's not in the conversation because he doesn't do it on the defense side of the ball. He has depended on his teammates to cover his deficiency on defense, and is lucky he has had 2 of the better defensive players in the league playing with him most of his career.
Completely disagree. He is actually in the conversation. Some people put him top 10 and others have him at top 12. It all depends on how you see him. Also, his defense has improved over the last few years compare to when he first got into the nba. I believe he also lead the NBA in the number of steal in 2016 if I’m not mistaken.
Need to watch his career highlights rather than just this season! Also, it is hard to get context for how insane these shots are. Encourage you to go to a basketball court and stand as far from the basket as he is making these shots from. That will give more perspective!
Curry’s in the top 10 conversation
You should see Curry's highlights in college during March Madness. He was doing s..t like this in college. If the 09 draft was done over, knowing what we know now... there's no question Curry would be the #1 pick in the draft. He just fell to the Warriors at #7 becuz teams worried about his size. He was really skinny coming out of college, and they didnt know if that would translate well to the NBA
Great vid! Two things: 1. As far as Steph's ranking amongst the GOATs, he's at least top 5. He's won 4 championships, 3 of which were against Lebron James. 2. You gotta see his unanimous MVP season, he was absolutely nuts. His shooting splits were something like 50% FG, 45% 3P, and 91%FT. Unbelievable.
There is no way Steph is top 5.
Great pick for 1st NBA vid
As a fellow Brit who also follows Basketball (mainly thanks to Steph Curry), I can honestly say that the video you watched was not even close to being some of his most amazing work. He's been in the NBA since 2009 and suffered a lot of derision from scouts, analysts and fans because he did not fit the mould of what an NBA player 'should be' (6'6 and built like a brick %&^house), as well as a spate of ankle related injuries early on.
Over a decade later he has not only changed the way the game is played, but has also paved the way for players of smaller stature but higher skill level, to be accepted within the game as more than a novelty. However when it comes to the 'Top 10' argument, this guy gets my number 1 spot because he has achieved everything he has (multiple championships and awards as well as reimagining the way the game is played) without the "physical gifts" a Michael Jordan, Kevin Durant or Lebron James might have. But the sports critics will constantly knock him down saying he is too small and weak. And all this with the 7' guys saying that they fear him.
The man is a living legend and its only after he's gone that some of these berks will wake up and regret they didn't appreciate him when they had him.
Love this! Thanks for the comment, appreciate it!
Curry is sneaking in the goat convo. Greatest PG of all time
Steph is the 2nd greatest point guard in NBA history, by quite a big gap. Him and Magic Johnson are leaps and bounds above every other point guard who has ever played in terms of accolades and accomplishments despite playing the position and game completely differently. He's one of the most efficient scorers in history and a top 10-15 player of all time.
Bro curry is levels better , I love magic but he couldn’t shoot and played with THE super team (Lakers=Kareem,West,worthy,Baylor)
@@sportgeek2028 Everyone forgets about the All-Time steals/assists leader. Lack of rings people
don`t give John Stockton the props he deserves.
Gents, there's only two guys in the greatest ever conversation. It's (the unbelievable) Michael Jordan and (the most dominant player to step on a court) Wilt Chamberlain. Wilt Chamberlain still holds 72 NBA records and is undoubtedly the greatest athlete to step on a basketball court. They're on a different level than the others you named. Lebron has compiled alot of stats but he's not in the conversation with the two guys I named. Kobe is farther down on that list.
What’s crazy is this is a pretty pedestrian Steph curry highlight compilation lol
The best of the best when it comes to the 3
To be Fair March Madness was when the whole Country found out Steph Curry could do this😮…he’s definitely top TEN where at is Preference in that and that depend on how long you been watching but …….MJ is the absolute GOAT 🐐 PERIOD….Every one is fighting for second place 🥈
I am a San Francisco native 🌁. I was too young to remember Rick Barry. I was old enough to see Chris Mullin, who was 1 of the top 3 point shooters then. Stephen Curry surpasses both Hall of Fame players! 🤯 Don Nelson was the head coach for these last 2 players.
Bob Fitzgerald on much of the play by play on 95.7 The Game. Marv Albert on some of the ESPN or ABC highlights.
Unbelievable shots! The Warriors won the NBA Finals in 1975🏆 The team needed to wait another 40 years to win another title. Who could have predicted this?! 🤯
Opinion. Stephen Curry belongs in the Top 10. I place him between 5 and 6.
As usual for player’s best games, you can watch playoff games or top scores regular season. NBA All Star game 2022. 50 pts 16/21 3 pointers. Average 5 3 points attempts per quarter. Watch RUclips pre game warm ups, made 103 consecutive 3 points shots. How about right before he exits into the locker room, made 4 consecutive shots just throw the ball to the other end of the court.
Steph is 35yrs old!! currently leading the best 3pts scorer in NBA..
On top of all this, Steph is easily one of the best passers in the league. The wow factor is off the charts with him.
Usually top three are considered Jordan, Lebron and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (definitely a player worth checking out. Was all time scorer until this year when Lebron passed him). Kobe was never on their level really in terms of efficiency and overall productivity, but at his best he could really wow you and his game really stayed pretty consistent as he got older. Insane work ethic and IQ.
A few current players that have amazing highlights are Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Russel Westbrook, Damian Lillard, Giannis Antetokunmpo, Nikola Jokic, and Ja Morant.
People forget the ONLY center to AVG 50 points and ALSO the only Center to lead the NBA in assists 1 year.
Maybe because you have to be 70+ to see him play.
@@ericjorgensen3911 right. It’s very difficult to compare players from that era, and I’ve never heard any experts say different. Trying to compare a Cousy or a Wilt to modern players just seems so apples and oranges. I’ve seen a good amount of Wilt footage though. With all the advancements since then I generally start my lists newer but it’s just because it’s conceptually easier for me. It’s why so many people have trouble placing Russell, right? And the top three i listed aren’t my top three necessarily, just what I find to be the most popular choices, especially lately.

@@ericjorgensen3911 Right but also the athletes are completely different. Nutrition, medical teams, etc. And plus there's no advanced analytics from back then it's really hard to gauge. Comparing Wilt to say, Hakeem, is incredibly tough.
