In the entire interview you could see he is a bit reserved and quiet but this was the one part where he was just giddy when talking about Curry, it was awesome to see!!
Wow you must have a lot of time on your hands don't ya? Why are you mentioning Kerr... obviously volume affects efficiency you dumb dummy. Westbrook dunks better than Curry and stat pads better - everywhere else Curry is superior. Curry's defense, by the way, is miles above Westbrook. Westbrook LED THE LEAGUE in not contesting 3-pt shots for 30 minutes played players. If that's not bad defense, I don't know what is. Jordan did not guard the best players - that was Pippen and Rodman. That's why Phil Jackson did not want Jordan to guard Magic in the finals for example. Does that make him bad? No. Klay does not need to handle the ball and has better perimeter defense than Curry, hence he guards the best player. Of course Curry can defend pretty much anyone playing position 1-2 but what competent coach would let him defend the best attackers when they already have good defenders for that role.
Curry is the most special player in the history of the NBA. He is not long like Durant, he is not strong like Lebron, he is not explosive like Westbrook but he is magic. An unbelievable player who makes average (+) size kids believe that they can make it in the greatest league in the world.
Let me fix that for you right now lol.... the Jerry West and Wilt Lakers won a single title... the year after Elgin retired. I think a lot of his stats were somewhat inflated by the era he played in (similar to Wilt averaging 50 and Oscar averaging a triple double through 5 season), and don't think he deserved a statue in front of Staples either. Just my two cents.
Curry haters: Ray Allen is the best shooter of all time Ray Allen and other hall of famers: Curry is by far the best shooter ever 😂😂I find it funny how anyone can find a way to hate on this man
Thank you Baylor. Giving the current generation some props instead of trying to downplay greatness. Curry is the best pg in the league, and will go down as one of the greatest to ever play the game. 🤷🏽♂️ Curry haters truly don’t understand his *value*
lol @ greatest player ever best SHOOTER ever but greatest player ever he not even better the durant..curry 30 years old dont even have 15k points scored and averaging 23ppg for career
The G.O.A.T No Debate it doesn’t matter bro if Curry is ranked #50 all time when his career is over. That’s still “one of the greatest to ever play this game.” but I disagree. I think Curry will be in the top 25 when his career is over.
The G.O.A.T No Debate curry will be top 25 no doubt. I don’t think he will catch magic. But he can pass Stockton and Isiah Thomas who are probably top 25.
Baylor isnt one of the oldhead player haters salute to him. I hear people talk about how great he was and Kobe saying he studied all of his moves. Wish there was more film of this legend.
I don't think he said LeBron to be nice he said LeBron because he was being honest right like why I got to be a hate though? Lol. what you said is an opinion you have no facts behind him saying it to be nice I just can't believe 82 people like that as if what you said was factual and you have no proof of that how we feel though hahahaha
You know why almost all retired players keep dissing Curry and belittling his skills? Because they're not shooters. They score most of their points close to the basket so they can't relate to beating opponents by shooting lights out. For them, the only way you can be great is if you were born with leaping ability to regularly dunk the ball, not working hard on perfecting your outside shot. The few greats who actually appreciate what Curry does include Bird, Jerry West, Baylor and you can see why - they're shooters.
That's partially true but guys like Shaq say Curry is his favorite player to watch. Rick Barry, Kareem, Garnett, Iverson, etc. are all in awe of Steph.
Did you see what Baylor's nickname was tho? It was "Mr. Inside". I think he is just very humble compared to other retired players and can appreciate greatness in this era and doesn't feel the need to talk up his own era.
Steph Curry is totally a freak of nature. It's funny: when you bring up NBA athletes, football players notice Lebron and Westbrook. But ballet dancers notice Steph Curry. Steph's a different kind of freak athlete from Bron and Russ. But in his way, he's a tremendous athlete.
Leigh Arlington nah wouldnt say he's a tremendous athlete. He's a tremendous basketball player. Average athlete, but he is a true basketball player through and through.
Haters really hate to hear ANYBODY say ANYTHING good about Curry. Yall nikkaz can not change reality. And the reality is...when Curry retires...he will be a HALL OF FAMER...a CHAMPION...a GOLD MEDAL OLYMPIAN...and one of the ALL TIME GREATS. No amount of hate from u haters will change that.
It’s actually great to hear past-legends opinions on today’s game, gives you a peep on how good players are today in relation to what they’ve seen and how we really should appreciate players of today
I just became a fan of his after watching this and then checking his stats I understand why he has a statue. How come his name never comes up when discussing all time SFs. Dude averaged 27+points and 11.5 rebounds for his career And I like the way he gives props to the current guys not talking about "if he had played in my days bla bla bla..." Awesome!
Elgin Baylor, the best I've ever seen. This man could actually "Float". I first saw him as a Minneapolis Laker coming down the court with that patented head bob. Mr. Elgin Baylor!!!
Stephen Curry is 1 of the Best nba players of all time. It's a joy 2 see him play. Papapapa Sharpest shooter ever 1 of the best handles ever 1 of the best scorers ever 1 of the best passer ever. What can't he do expect playing 1 of the best defense ever. Ma favorite player truly inspirational. 🦇🥇🌋🏀🏆
captain save LeHoe Hes Best player in nba. LeBron cant compare to currys in +/-, net rating, TS%, obpm, efg%. Also Curry avereges more points, assists, Steals than LeBron in playoffs While playing the same times. LeBron plays more minutes so he can get little better stats.
captain save LeHoe bruh iguodala brought them to victory not curry... btw they bacame champions because kyrie and love got injured and lebron has no help while the gsw is stacked of great players
deadpool 999 curry averaged 23ppg 6 rebs 6 assts in the last 3 games of 2015 he averaged 26ppg shot 40% from 3. I dnt wana hear about love and kyrie being hurt cus last year they were healthy and got whooped in 5 shpildve gotten whooped in 5 in 2016 but lbj got saved by Adam silver when he suspended green for game 5. All of a sudden klove is so important to the Cavs and kyrie too?? Ya quick to dismiss them all the other times but not when talking about lbj Ls
friend, If you are so confident they should have won and Adam Silver helped Lebron, wonder why they went and got KD or called him in the parking lot right after game 7.?. Love how you omitted that part :-) come on man everyone knows whats up. they are a great team but they wouldn't have won without KD again. they kinda cheated their way into the second ring by getting KD and third, fourth on the way....plus First one they should not have won cause it was their first and Lebron was playing alone. Kyrie was NOT important ? lol hahahaha Look what Kyrie did to Curry/Warriors in game 7, clutch plays put the dagger in their hearts. snatch that 73 win season right from them in one shot. .they were hurt so bad they went and recruited KD. and sorry 41 points in game 5 from Kyrie. come on now. that was a component that Lebron did not have. we get It you love curry, he's a great player but he kinda disappeared in 2016 finals and made HORRIBLE plays. it happens its fine but he needed KD to the rescue to take that pressure off :-)
The only old head who’s not low key bitter that Curry has changed the game they used to play lol just recognizes that he’s different and great at being his different self. No team is practicing their dunks to be like other teams but other teams def practicing their threes year after year BECAUSE of Steph and having to play against him. If you can’t give props for that you’re just a hater
People in all walks of life praises Steph Curry for his skills in shooting. The best in this category. Congratulations Steph. Those who watched you shoot will never forget this one of a kind ability. God bless you.
Elgin Baylor one of the most humble GOATS gave respect to LeBron and to Steph Curry. #realrecognizesreal. Curry's shooting ability and the different ways he can score and get his shot off makes him a freak of nature in that aspect. And impact his team the way he does in a system and doing the little things to help his team. LeBron James is the best player of his time no question and arguably the most physically built athletic freak of nature wing the league has ever seen.
I am so sick and tired of these sports people interjecting Lebron James name when talking about Steph Curry. These 2 men are not twins or even teammates. Its like when they mention Tupac, they got to bring up Biggie Smalls ,to my dismay. Please people, keep Lebron James off Steph Curry coattails and please keep Biggie Smalls off Tupac's coattails
Baylor was great throughout his career but his athleticism was off the charts before his knee injury when he was explosive going to the hoop. Elgin was one of the best improv players of all-time and had more moves than U-Haul.
Former NBA players in their 50s 60s and older respects the new gen of BBall, this era is defenitely a Lebron/Curry era, full of amazing athletes and skillful players.
We can give props to Steph all day but who really deserves props is one of the ALL-Time SF's in History. Elgin Baylor. I watched games and highlights of this man even though I'm only 20 years old. This man was one of the most tenacious and pure hearted players of his time. He was Michael Jordan before Michael, Kobe before Kobe and LeBron before Lebron.
Baylor and West carried those early 60s Lakers teams both would go off with 40 point games, West is the All Time leader in playoff 40 point games and Baylor 61 in the finals
Remember kids Elgin Baylor was the guy responsible for creating guys like Dr.J and MJ. Ridiculous control over the ball and ability to finish. There's a reason why he averaged 37 points in one season and it was in an era where you were not allowed to palm the ball.
Elgin was the first to play above the rim. At 6' 5" he was the prototype of gravity defying stars that came later like Dr. J, Dominique, Michael, Drexler, Vince Carter etc. Baylor could do everything they all could do and most of the time do it better.
It's incredibly rare that you hear Stephen Curry be called a freak of nature - and a one in a million moment when Lebron and Stephen are mentioned in the same sentence
there are people who said that "curry isnt a 2nd pg of all time bc all he can do is shoot" lmao lemme explain when people compared curry to kyrie they always say kyrie has better handles yup kyrie has better handle than curry but not by far coz curry has a better handles too we all know that, they said if you're a pg you need a passing skills (magic johnson) curry has a passing skills too if you wactched curry's youll see his passing skills no look pass etc. (like magic but magic did it better, bc thats magic's skills) curry can rebound too just like magic johnson, curry can block, curry can steals also, curry can finish inside on the paint too. the difference is CURRY IS A GREATER SHOOTER THAN THEM magic (passing skills) curry (shooting skills)
The first Julius Erving. They should've had Elgin Baylor, Julius Erving, Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins and Vince Carter judge the dunking contest one year
One of the best knows the best,,, The Legend speaks, but unfortunately there are still a lot of people that can't accept the reality of SC30 influence, impact and how great he is
I thought he'd talk shit about steph like almost all other old schoolers lol I remember when Hakeem said MJ is ten times the player than Lebron ever was, now thats accurate
LBJ is a freak of nature, but the common man can never relate to him in that sense because very few are built that way. One of the main reasons people love Steph is because, even though he is one of the best basketball players in the world, he resembles the common man. And it gives people a guy that they can somewhat relate to. "Average" size (he still is pretty ripped but relative to the majority of the NBA) guy doing extraordinary things. It's a marvel
That's special hearing the old timer marvel at the wonders of Steph Curry
In the entire interview you could see he is a bit reserved and quiet but this was the one part where he was just giddy when talking about Curry, it was awesome to see!!
Because of the way Curry play it's so Effortless just like Roger Federer and Lionel Messi
That’s so true lol he was pretty mellow during the interview before talking about Curry. It’s nice to see Curry getting the respect he’s earned.
If a Legend talks about you with so much excitement that's when you know you've done some ... aka Stephen Curry 👌🏾💯
Larry Okoye Facts😊

what a humble man, and guys its time to recognize greatness, stop hating on steph hes one of a kind #REALRECOGNIZEREAL
Irfan Kermally
Curry is the most special player in the history of the NBA. He is not long like Durant, he is not strong like Lebron, he is not explosive like Westbrook but he is magic. An unbelievable player who makes average (+) size kids believe that they can make it in the greatest league in the world.
LaissezFaire2323 Lol you said avg like curry is cp3 or Lowry height
6’3” is slightly above avg height.
That’s what makes him special.
A reg guy, dominating against the most elite athletes in the world.
saboteur57 pretty sure that’s avg pg height tho
Well said. Curry is truly a magician
hes still 6'3".. that is 2" taller than federer..1" taller than christiano ronaldo
Steph Curry is something different man... He's something special no doubt.
I've never met a single NBA fan that had a bad thing to say about Elgin Baylor. Elgin's a top shelf Hall of Famer for sure. Class act.
Rak shasa Yes ! Definitely underrated !
Let me fix that for you right now lol.... the Jerry West and Wilt Lakers won a single title... the year after Elgin retired. I think a lot of his stats were somewhat inflated by the era he played in (similar to Wilt averaging 50 and Oscar averaging a triple double through 5 season), and don't think he deserved a statue in front of Staples either. Just my two cents.
LOL. This shit is funny asf. I know everything you said was true but damn that was a tad bit harsh to expose "Mr. Baylor" like that lol.
Just Another Troll literally I’m like facts but can he hold his 8 finals loses in peace 😂
I know man I didn't want to say anything bad about him but come on we can't be giving out statues like that.
Curry haters: Ray Allen is the best shooter of all time
Ray Allen and other hall of famers: Curry is by far the best shooter ever
😂😂I find it funny how anyone can find a way to hate on this man
Exactly. When NBA greats say that then there really is no debate.
Fr
J P was just about to say that 😂😂😂
Ethan Lathon I gotta agree with that one. Why is it that only media members and fans hate on people when players don't?
Makaveli Pac you're correct
Thank you Baylor. Giving the current generation some props instead of trying to downplay greatness. Curry is the best pg in the league, and will go down as one of the greatest to ever play the game. 🤷🏽♂️ Curry haters truly don’t understand his *value*
Aaron Perry Sup Waron. Funny seeing you here.
The G.O.A.T No Debate you're deluded , stfu look at your profile name and avi.. anything you say is discredible
lol @ greatest player ever best SHOOTER ever but greatest player ever he not even better the durant..curry 30 years old dont even have 15k points scored and averaging 23ppg for career
The G.O.A.T No Debate
it doesn’t matter bro if Curry is ranked #50 all time when his career is over.
That’s still “one of the greatest to ever play this game.”
but I disagree. I think Curry will be in the top 25 when his career is over.
The G.O.A.T No Debate curry will be top 25 no doubt. I don’t think he will catch magic. But he can pass Stockton and Isiah Thomas who are probably top 25.
Spaces The Floor Moves,Without The Ball, Only Player In History That Doesn’t Have A Range, Best Shooter Ever.
thank you.STEPH is underrated.Greatest shooter ever!
Baylor isnt one of the oldhead player haters salute to him. I hear people talk about how great he was and Kobe saying he studied all of his moves. Wish there was more film of this legend.
He said lebron to be nice, pretty obvious who his real favorite player is.
I don't think he said LeBron to be nice he said LeBron because he was being honest right like why I got to be a hate though? Lol. what you said is an opinion you have no facts behind him saying it to be nice I just can't believe 82 people like that as if what you said was factual and you have no proof of that how we feel though hahahaha
He doesn’t have to pick just one. He can enjoy both players.
Steph Curry is the reason I started watching basketball. He is unbelievable.
You know why almost all retired players keep dissing Curry and belittling his skills? Because they're not shooters.

shicrapt before steph curry,two points shot,layups or dunks won championship,now 3 points shot is the most important weapon for a championship team.
Much respect Mr. Baylor. "magnet on the ball" lol, love it 😅 Steph=real life cheat code
Greatness recognize greatness
Steph Curry is totally a freak of nature. It's funny: when you bring up NBA athletes, football players notice Lebron and Westbrook. But ballet dancers notice Steph Curry. Steph's a different kind of freak athlete from Bron and Russ. But in his way, he's a tremendous athlete.
Leigh Arlington nah wouldnt say he's a tremendous athlete. He's a tremendous basketball player. Average athlete, but he is a true basketball player through and through.
He’s very skilled but not like an incredible athlete. Someone like Westbrook would be a amazing athlete
LOL someones feelings hurt
LOL Westbrook ain't shit LOL
not ballet dancers, its Lebron and WB that are noticing steph, they want to beat him, they want them rings.
Curry 🎯🐐
Haters really hate to hear ANYBODY say ANYTHING good about Curry. Yall nikkaz can not change reality. And the reality is...when Curry retires...he will be a HALL OF FAMER...a CHAMPION...a GOLD MEDAL OLYMPIAN...and one of the ALL TIME GREATS. No amount of hate from u haters will change that.
Everything is true except the Gold Medal Olympian. 2 world cup gold medal. But one has to play in the Olympics to win, which he never has.
He said LeBron but couldn’t find the right words to describe how amazing Curry is ! That’s why Curry>>>>>>LeFlop
Meek Lee Lmao shut up.
Steph is to finesse, what Shaq was to power.
Shaq knows this, which is why he's Shaq's favorite player
Curry the Greatest point guard of all time
Finally a former player with respect for Curry !
Theres more nba legends respect curry more than you think.
Shaq , kg , pp, nash etc.
@@WestbrickFansGotNoBrains also allen Iverson picks him as his all time starting pg
@@raiNjErs i mean so many people couldnt even guard allen iverson. Said they could guard curry.
Which is laughable.
Curry > Every other Point Guard
Pro Sports Central not Russ or Cp?
russ and cp are definately right behind him, but for what curry can do with his body frame and size is unbelievable
Notorious BleezyB definitely not
mrgetitdone85 he is the 2nd best behind LeBron
mrgetitdone85 well I was only talking about current NBA... but who's better?
It’s actually great to hear past-legends opinions on today’s game, gives you a peep on how good players are today in relation to what they’ve seen and how we really should appreciate players of today
Whoever thinks Westbrook is a better PG then Curry is crazy, stat padding point guard, thinking he’s a first option when the game is on the line
Gjokaj wdym thinking?
Gjokaj durant left russell for steph .
tka060681 and klay and draymond
Gjokaj he's the leading scorer on that team why wouldn't he think he's the first option
Very simple. If there are only two to choose from, would you rather pick Curry or Westbrick to be your PG in the finals? the answer is clear.
Curry = The G.O.A.T
At shooting
respect for Elgin!
Elgin baylor is so smart and very much underrated in my opinion. He hit everything right on the head
I just became a fan of his after watching this and then checking his stats I understand why he has a statue. How come his name never comes up when discussing all time SFs. Dude averaged 27+points and 11.5 rebounds for his career
And I like the way he gives props to the current guys not talking about "if he had played in my days bla bla bla..." Awesome!
Yessss, Elgin Baylor is one of the greatest 🏀
i’m a football/soccer fan and i can confirm Steph Curry is a freak. he reminds me a lot of Lionel Messi just the way they play the games. magicians.
Curry=nothing but #Net!🏀💯
Elgin Baylor, the best I've ever seen. This man could actually "Float". I first saw him as a Minneapolis Laker coming down the court with that patented head bob. Mr. Elgin Baylor!!!
Stephen Curry is 1 of the Best nba players of all time. It's a joy 2 see him play. Papapapa Sharpest shooter ever 1 of the best handles ever 1 of the best scorers ever 1 of the best passer ever. What can't he do expect playing 1 of the best defense ever. Ma favorite player truly inspirational.
🦇🥇🌋🏀🏆
meron Kesete bruh he's not even better than ben simmons
deadpool 999 come 2 me when Simmons win something then we can talk nonsense Simmons just better at defending and passing.
meron Kesete, curry was not just 1 of the best ball handler he is the BEST compare to harden, paul, wall or westbrook
deadpool 999, make simmons win something before you praise him.
meron Kesete even though he did'nt win something he is still the better player
Steph is arguably the best in the world still, should've been mvp in the 2015 finals but voters wanted to get cute.
captain save LeHoe
Hes Best player in nba. LeBron cant compare to currys in +/-, net rating, TS%, obpm, efg%.
Also Curry avereges more points, assists, Steals than LeBron in playoffs While playing the same times. LeBron plays more minutes so he can get little better stats.

curry living legend
King Steph
Elgin Baylor had a 61 point 22 rebound game in the NBA Finals. Top 10 all time. Perhaps, the most underrated superstar of all time
and no 3 pt line...
The great Elgin Baylor! And a picture of the great Wilt Chamberlain behind him
STEPH, DURANT,LEBRON all at the top the past past few years....STEPH made 97 of 100 3's in 1 practice session.
this dude hairline is blessed
Hairlines are overrated
IM BoReD watch your mouth!!!👎👎👎
It might be fake. Look at the picture of him they showed
That's why he's one of the greats :D
Sam Sheth you have to be white
Gonna miss him💔💔
I like the way that he woke up. "you guys saw Steph Curry?"
The only old head who’s not low key bitter that Curry has changed the game they used to play lol just recognizes that he’s different and great at being his different self. No team is practicing their dunks to be like other teams but other teams def practicing their threes year after year BECAUSE of Steph and having to play against him. If you can’t give props for that you’re just a hater
Greatness recognises greatness!
He said Lebron so he wouldnt receive hate but he definitely likes Steph you can see & hear the enthusiasm
You heard that Westbrook fans??? This is a LEBRON/CURRY era...
stephanie swiga calm down guy they all great
stephanie swiga not if Russ has anything to say about it
Yes...but there's levels to this.
curry isnt even top 10 rn lol. BUT he is one of the most entertaining players to watch he said. I cant argue that
Gary F2G he is the third best
He spent 3 secs (out of courtesy) talking about LeBJ... and the next 60 secs talking about Curry.
Stephen Curry>The Greatest Shooter in the history of the NBA!
Best shooter of all time
Curry is the GOAT shooter, no doubt. Very skilled on other areas as well, a special player indeed.
People in all walks of life praises Steph Curry for his skills in shooting. The best in this category. Congratulations Steph. Those who watched you shoot will never forget this one of a kind ability. God bless you.
Elgin Baylor one of the most humble GOATS gave respect to LeBron and to Steph Curry. #realrecognizesreal. Curry's shooting ability and the different ways he can score and get his shot off makes him a freak of nature in that aspect. And impact his team the way he does in a system and doing the little things to help his team. LeBron James is the best player of his time no question and arguably the most physically built athletic freak of nature wing the league has ever seen.
Elgin Baylor is one of the non salty legends out there. He's not out there saying "in our era we would have beaten bla bla bla."
props to Curry just a terrific shooter and a very good teammate
Steph consistently performs, day in day out with astronomical results = 'Freak of Nature'
Steph GOAT!
I love how the old guys talk about these new players.
It's good to see legends like him give props to players today instead of trying to downplay their greatness.
I am so sick and tired of these sports people interjecting Lebron James name when talking about Steph Curry. These 2 men are not twins or even teammates. Its like when they mention Tupac, they got to bring up Biggie Smalls ,to my dismay. Please people, keep Lebron James off Steph Curry coattails and please keep Biggie Smalls off Tupac's coattails
So what I'm hearing him say is look at curry man, so inspirational
On nba live elgin is a beast #newkid
Baylor was great throughout his career but his athleticism was off the charts before his knee injury when he was explosive going to the hoop. Elgin was one of the best improv players of all-time and had more moves than U-Haul.
That man has probably forgotten more basketball than most of us will ever know in our lives
Former NBA players in their 50s 60s and older respects the new gen of BBall, this era is defenitely a Lebron/Curry era, full of amazing athletes and skillful players.
We can give props to Steph all day but who really deserves props is one of the ALL-Time SF's in History. Elgin Baylor. I watched games and highlights of this man even though I'm only 20 years old. This man was one of the most tenacious and pure hearted players of his time. He was Michael Jordan before Michael, Kobe before Kobe and LeBron before Lebron.
A praise like that from elgin is golden if you ask me
Baylor and West carried those early 60s Lakers teams both would go off with 40 point games, West is the All Time leader in playoff 40 point games and Baylor 61 in the finals
Great praise from a great one!
i though elgin baylor was scottie pippen and was wondering what had happend to to him until i realised it was not pipen but baylor so funny.
Remember kids Elgin Baylor was the guy responsible for creating guys like Dr.J and MJ. Ridiculous control over the ball and ability to finish. There's a reason why he averaged 37 points in one season and it was in an era where you were not allowed to palm the ball.
Curry and lebron are by far the best players in the world.
Jheez the great Elgin Baylor! Scoring machine!
A Legend appreciating Legend🙌🏻
He may not be the best, although that’s subjective, but he’s definitely the most entertaining.
He isn't a freak of nature he is a freak of hard work and determination
Elgin was the first to play above the rim. At 6' 5" he was the prototype of gravity defying stars that came later like Dr. J, Dominique, Michael, Drexler, Vince Carter etc. Baylor could do everything they all could do and most of the time do it
better.
NBA LEGENDS: Steph is a great player
Fans on their couch after their 9-5 job: Steph ain't great
Keep trying to tell people these players are better than they've ever been. The Koat and the Chef
People tend to hit on Curry because of his size. Well I he's greatest to be able to dominate and impact the game at his size.
It's incredibly rare that you hear Stephen Curry be called a freak of nature - and a one in a million moment when Lebron and Stephen are mentioned in the same sentence
there are people who said that "curry isnt a 2nd pg of all time bc all he can do is shoot" lmao lemme explain when people compared curry to kyrie they always say kyrie has better handles yup kyrie has better handle than curry but not by far coz curry has a better handles too we all know that, they said if you're a pg you need a passing skills (magic johnson) curry has a passing skills too if you wactched curry's youll see his passing skills no look pass etc. (like magic but magic did it better, bc thats magic's skills) curry can rebound too just like magic johnson, curry can block, curry can steals also, curry can finish inside on the paint too.
the difference is CURRY IS A GREATER SHOOTER THAN THEM
magic (passing skills)
curry (shooting skills)
Steph/Elgin love you two goat
Rest easy Elgin.
Elgin played on a sore knee much of his career and is still in top 15 ever
Elgin Baylor, the first Michael Jordan. This man averaged 20 rebounds playing small forward, incredible.
The first Julius Erving. They should've had Elgin Baylor, Julius Erving, Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins and Vince Carter judge the dunking contest one year
One of the best knows the best,,,
The Legend speaks, but unfortunately there are still a lot of people that can't accept the reality of SC30 influence, impact and how great he is
He was underrated
Who got hair like that at 83 damn
Dude, Baylor in person!!
I thought he'd talk shit about steph like almost all other old schoolers lol
I remember when Hakeem said MJ is ten times the player than Lebron ever was, now thats accurate
Curry the greatest shooters in NBA
Curry been a top 3 player since 2016
elgin baylor is the greatest small forward ever
You can tell the set got an annoyed laugh when he stuck Curry in there at the end lollll love it
A rebound beast
LBJ is a freak of nature, but the common man can never relate to him in that sense because very few are built that way. One of the main reasons people love Steph is because, even though he is one of the best basketball players in the world, he resembles the common man. And it gives people a guy that they can somewhat relate to. "Average" size (he still is pretty ripped but relative to the majority of the NBA) guy doing extraordinary things. It's a marvel
Lmfao he right about curry
SC30 The Greatest Shooter Of All Time 🐐
