“Magic is the best point guard of all time”

Michael Jordan refutes Stephen Curry’s claim that he is the greatest point guard of all time.

In a text message to ESPN’s Steven Smith on the 23rd (local time), Jordan stressed that Magic Johnson is the best point guard of all time and asked him to read his post during the broadcast.

“The greatest things are always discussed, but my idea of the greatest point guard of all time is different from yours,” Jordan said.

“If you’re going to have a serious discussion, you have to define ‘point guard.’ Curry is the greatest shooter of all time. His movement makes a lot of shots for his teammates. He’s a career 3-point shooter with a 43% success rate. But Magic Johnson He invented the triple-double.”

He went on to add, “I didn’t invent it, but in terms of impact on the game. Magic was the best. They have five NBA championships.”

Prior to this, when Gilbert Arenas asked Curry on his podcast on the 21st, “Are you the best point guard?”, Curry pondered for a while and replied, “Yes.” Then he said, “It’s magic with me.”

As a result, basketball fans are “arguing with each other” online. Jordan fans support Jordan’s claim, while Curry fans dispute that Curry is a true point guard.

Jordan oozes the nuance that Curry sees as a shooting guard rather than a point guard.

Jordan had rivalry on the court with his contemporaneous Magic Johnson.

The Magic averaged 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 11.2 assists per career.

Curry was averaging 24.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.5 assists until last season.

If you look at the 1990s standard that a point guard’s virtue is an assist, Jordan is correct, but Jordan’s statement may be wrong in today’s standards that a point guard should also score a lot.

However, few basketball fans would dispute that both Magic and Curry are the best point guards of their time.
