Shaq said"I wish I could shoot like that."...if Charles Barkley was there he would have said." You wish you could shoot period."
On my soul 😂😂😂😂
Practice your free throws first 😂
What happened to Kenny, Ernie, and Charles??((
@@seanannerslambert2657 they for Thursdays. This is Tuesdays group
p'r-yud
Yes and this is not even a debatable point anymore. The real debate is who the 2nd best shooter is- Klay, Reggie, or Ray Allen
It’s klay with a narrow lead over ray
They’re all spot 3 point shooters. Bird can shoot from anywhere and make his own shots as well as tougher js. Shooting isn’t limited to 3 pointers or stand still shots so I’d say him and KD are much higher on my list than most.
If you're shooting almost 70 percent of team field goal. Yeah you will be the best shooter. Haha
Petrović
@@dopexaint ? So what you trying to say? Dismiss Steph’s legacy?
Its gonna be a sad day when steph retires man really changed the game and an inspiration. Infinite respect
@Ace Ahmadzai Trae isn't steph. He can shoot, but that's where that stops.
Changed the game. Inspired a people
Hes original, all else just been a sequel
I can't wait basket ball will return to normal. This game is now one sided. I remember between all the sports if you would see a basketball highlight it was the best. the types of dunks and alley oops crossovers. Now majority of that is gone all you get is a step back 3 or side 3. I love basket ball n will continue to love it. But it was better before he got here n can't wait till he leaves unfortunately that won't happen for a long time 😭
He didnt chwnge the game, zone defense changed the game. If it was still man on man 3 points wouldnt be so attractive because the accuracy would go down.
Yeeeeaalet’s not talk about that rn...
85 3pointers in a month.. I laughed when he said “he still has 2 more games to go” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Steph is INSANE
it's 96 hahaha
How many times do we need to pretend that him being the best shooter ever is not universal already? Talk about something else guys.
Stg😂
The whole world been knowing he’s the best
Has anyone ever talked about MJ vs Lebron?
@@iguacu3517 I don’t think they have tbh you should start the debate going🤔
@@iguacu3517 the only recorded debate was between two roommates that ended in a stabbing
Shaq always sound like he got a chicken wing stuck in his throat when he talk
But why a chicken wing. No steak?
Barbecue chicken alert
@@45Dre because when he posts up a weak center and finishes strong, he says barbecue chicken.
whats wrong with having a chicken wing in your throat?
Yo how many rings you got? That’s what I thought. Only talks to champions.
Hate him, or Love him. You can't deny his Greatness and how Game changer he is.
why would you hate him tho?
Shaq real for giving props to Mahmoud Abdul Rauf. The NBA blackballed this man. Was an absolute beast.
The Blueprint!
Imagine had he not been blackballed, how that would have elevated Steph’s game due to the stats Raif would have left.
They went to college together!!! Both went to LSU
True
Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul Rauf was the best player on LSU when him and Shaq played together and he still shoots the same.
About Rauf was special. Dangerous with the rock
Two things.
1) without a doubt he is.
2) when's the original crew coming back
the crew is on wednesdays. tuesdays its always this core now....
Where'd the original crew go?, And it's Thursday actually.
@@nvisible123 no its tuesday. where do you live?
You trippin this crew lit too 😎
@@iwontletthehatersanddoubte1395 not even remotely close
Steph is without a doubt “The Most Influential Shooter of All Time”. He literally changed the game and how people want to play in the league nowadays single-handedly.
Still the best shooter
For sure
The most influential’…is that you saying 'no'?
when shaq mentioned Mahmoud Abdul Rauf i shed a tear aha
Why
underrated legend
@@marcosjuarez1490 that guy is a shooteeeeer
Shaq was on the money with that comparison.
Curry couldn’t hold Rauf’s jockstrap
What's crazy is when steph fakes a shot yet the defender jumps in the logo. The LOGO.
Bro dude will participate in the 3 point contest while getting guarded and still won it
😅😅
EVERYTIME
Yo
Man’s said I might be the best shooter here
Candace “chill” 🤣🤣🤣
He is white tho
@@soraventus4906 you're right, they got some crazy shooters if you know what I mean.
Candace prob the best shooter there if im keeping it a buck
@@faisalsalam4161 for real Larry bird Steph, young heaps of great WHITE shooters

This take is about 5 years too late, you guys using internet explorer?
Even if you Asked Jeeves he’d say yes
Ong 💀💀😭😭
Actually, there were a lot of people who refused to say that Steph was the best shooter 5 years ago.
@@wrasslin4552 u mean while he was winning chips? Lol okay if you say so
@@smittywerbenjagermanjensen5152 duh. Oh and by the way, 2015 was the first time Steph won a title .
Go back and look at the interviews. Most fans said he was the best most of the old school players and analysts would say he wasn’t.
Steph is the most interesting player to watch! His shooting is just straight up magic
If kids want to be Steph allow them to be, don't hinder them by telling them that they aren't him. Teach them the fundamentals and everything about being a complete player.
No. People need to know their limitations, you see this BS in the NBA with everyone trying to pull up from 30 feet, it’s ruining the game. Everyone in general needs to stop trying to be like Steph unless your name is Steph Curry. Steph makes it fun and beautiful, everyone else trying to do it is a complete eye sore
@@solidsnake7167 then don’t watch the game
Dainsleif - kids always did that. you got to teach them it's a team game
@@solidsnake7167 funny thing is the best shooter in history from deep limtlesss is dame he led the league every year and has all the record 3pt from limitless. If people actually watch steph theyd realize what’s makes him one of a kind his ability to ball off ball n find his shot
@@antiisolation4 Nahhhh
Appreciate Shaq name dropping Mahmoud Abdul Rauf. When I saw his highlights, i was thinking this guy closest to Steph Curry back in the 90s
Yea I was thinkin
Yeah.Ive had the pleasure of watching both,and I must say_thats a pretty fair comparison.💯
Mahmoud was nasty, and underappreciated I agree with you.
Havent watched him but his card was cheese last year in 2k20.
I remember when he went by Chris Jackson

@@josephrubio3714 you woke up salty today didn't you?
What I love about that he is phenomenal, yet humble and continues to get better
“If he played in our era DWade,I’ll have to touch em up.”🤣🤣🤣 Shaq you hit it on the nose
I love how the old heads act like Steph wouldn't have done exactly what he's doing now. They also act like Steph is tiny. Dude is a legit 6'3 190 in shoes and you know he's strong by how effortlessly he shoots from 40+ feet. Dude has some triceps on him for sure
@@pierrecausemybladdersempty1678 He would have probably taken more 3pt shots back in the day because he'd get clobbered coming into the paint. And then he'd get benched for taking too many 3s, until some coach realized that he's different and should take those shots more.
But I don't think he's god's gift to shooting. There were probably folks back in the day who would have been just as good, if not better, if there was a 3pt line and coaches allowed shooting from deep like the game today. Wilt Chamberlain would hit half court HOOK shots with ease while practicing. Just don't ask him to shoot at the foul line...
Yes he’s been the greatest shooter of all time since 2016.
🤔🤔
Of All time! Hater
This video should really be 2 seconds long. Just say "Yes"
Facts
Sometimes it's good to give a player praise before he retires.
Right 🤣
He has been the best shooter of all time since the warriors were winning their titles. Watching steph play for davidson renewed my love for basketball after ai left the sixers. Just watching him play for davidson i knew he was special and would be the best shooter of all time.
Current and former players and coaches of the time were calling him the greatest shooter ever before he even won his first ring in 2015 and I can see why. He's been transcendent for almost a decade now.
I was like Shaq back in 2014/2015. “Thats not going in” or “ that was luck”. Then I was just amazed, and he is the only player that when they shoot I assume it’s going in automatically.
"I'm not mad at all"😂😂😂😂
"..... I like Bradley Beal" 😂😭
He said “I’m not mad at all”😐…..

It's not. But I'm putting James Harden as the number 2 I've ever seen. Curry inspired him to pick up his game.
@@gutenbird Not a bad take, but in terms of pure shooting there are a few people above Harden.
Shooting percentages could also be affected by the number of players purposely guarding that said shooter. In Currys' case, he constantly have have 2 guarding him cause of his ability to shoot. Not saying that Beal is not a shooter but, he's not getting "pressure" that Curry is getting lately.
THANK YOU MR.WADE. People FORGOT who Steph was when KD went to Golden State.
Whos the show producer that thought this should be a topic of convo?
don't be a hater
@@aquaviii he kinda right though. People have been saying since 2017 that curry was the best shooter of all time.
This is been a widely accepted fact since he hit that shot against OKC back in the day
Im 48, been watching NBA & fanatical about 35 of those years. Never seen a better shooter, handles etc.
You should know that Curry is a choke artists in the playoffs then . Why you think he has no finals mvp

Look at curry man. So inspirational

When Shaq straight up says he is the player I'm taking my kids to see... Yassss 🥰🥰🥰
"people think they can be like him, but they can't"
You heard it from her kids, If you work hard, you STILL CAN'T DO IT. Don't follow your dreams just give up"
Lol like fr who says something like that 😭
You can do better though right?
It's just straight up facts, chase your dream but don't dreamt of being like SC30. You'll be even better than him, that's what you kids should believe.
@@kingarmish literally every star is told they’ll never be something. Kobe was almost a carbon copy over Mike
@@kevothegoat9891 that's the motivation they need bruv. Keep them intact and ready them for going big in future.

It's harsh but effective m
Mahmoud is the reason I got into watching college hoops. Happened to be flipping channels, stopped on ESPN for some seconds and saw him with a quick 6 points. Finished with 40+ that game and avg 30 as a freshman. Crazy crossover too!
Nobody has been sooo inspirational like steph!!!!
Including LBJ
A losing record but he has been the best player! That defines MVP!
Without a doubt. No question about it. This man has handles galore and pulls up however, whenever, and from wherever he wants off the dribble, off the pass, screen or not.
I respect every single player in the NBA y'all know for sure steph don't have no one like him when it comes to shooting ball every corner
I don't know very well the history of NBA but I've never seen a player like Steph Curry. He's the goat.
Mad respect to Curry indeed generational just like Jrue said
Glad I played gym ball with steph back in the days in Davidson before he became pro. Too see him grow is amazing.
Look at Curry man si inspirational
i know this has already been said and absolutely nothing but love for everyone there... but i miss the old tnt lineup
He reminds me Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf always,his shoots n style looks perfect n seems unstoppable eventhough he could not play in such level due to different reasons!
What a great player and humble guy! D Wade 💯💯
Flash (my hometown hero, the all-time franchise player of my home team) knows what he was and what he wasn't. He's probably the only great "shooting guard" of all time that wasn't a shooter. He was a paint player. That's how he F'ed up his knees, is he was going hard in the paint against guys half a foot taller and 50 pounds heavier than him, for the first half of his career. I'd say he was the most unique shooting guard who ever lived. A dunker, a shotblocker, etc. Later in his career he could toss up a 3 every now and then but that's not who he was. I love him so much and I miss him so much. He beat up his body with his playing style so his career feels like it went by in a flash (pun intended) but he will always be our hero here in South Florida.
Lol Candace be telling her daughter they can euro step dunk on a 10ft rim but not gunna encourage them to shoot like Steph 😂😂 might have to reavaluate that one Candace lol

@@LuisoArt123 what is that
@@kingdavid7049 im lost too
The biggest mistake people make about Steph is that he always had this kind of range. That's why you go to gyms and see kids "practicing" from 40+. But the truth of the matter is, when he was in college, during his first 5-6 seasons in the league he's 3 point range was very similar to the rest of the league. It wasn't until 2014, the year Dame got shut down in the playoffs when he got trapped at the top of the 3 point line, then came back the next season in 2015 having worked on the deep 3 as a counter to the trapping, that we saw Steph also start to really "work" on that part of his game. In both cases, for Dame and Steph, they were already great 3 point shooters before they decided to extend their range. So don't go out and start practicing from 40. Get your form right from right under the basket first, then move out.
I get what you're saying but KD said when he was around 10 he went to Charlotte and say Steph pulling and splashing from half court at the b-ball academy so.....this doesn't apply for Steph ig
Steph is like a 10th year old just playing around on the court, running aroung, joking around, dancing, shoot whenever he likes, but he score 30+ points a game, won 3 rings, and 3 MVP.
2 mvp's bruh
A comedian said this same thing to Curry at a comedy event that Boogie Cousins hosted
@@nikitakali5028 and 0 finals mvp
*gifted 3 rings. Kyrie and Love were hurt in 15 and then KD took over in 17 and 18. Steph’s rings are meaningless.
@@45ginola Kyrie and Love weren't hurt when Warriors went 73-9 and Cavs still only won by a bucket. Warriors can make excuses and say Steph had just came back from an injury during that playoff run and Bogut+Iggy were hurt, but they don't cry like you.
Congrats to your control of the Ball and your formed...Much-Love.
Candace Parker ♥️
Why is this even a question?
Maaaaaaan C.P. is FINE!!
So is d wade
and slow
“Theres only one Steph Curry” for now. His games gonna shape next gen and there will be players that’ll eclipse Steph. The bar for athletic greatness is meant to be exceeded
No argue.. Whether his the greatest shooter or not.For me I love watching nba when He is on the floor. He is fun to watch. One thing for sure, he's the greatest HEADACHE of every opponents.
The most DD (Dangerous and Deadly) player in this time Stephen Curry!. 🏀
He's been the GOAT shooter since 2016 imo
"Chill Lefkoe" wins quote of the week for sure lol
What’s crazy is more people knows who’s the best in the world at shooting then who’s the best player in the league goes to show his greatness💯
I just saw a post saying: "curry could miss his next 500 3 point attempts and still have a higher 3 point% than ray allen... now that's tough
Saw the same one like 2 days ago
@@xk302a true, but curry gets hit almost every shot and doesn't get that many foul calls. Also I just saw his contested 3 point% is like 42 or 45%
@@xk302a no the higher % of 3s is mainly because the game evolved and players have adapted to shooting more 3s. This is an era of pace and space,whole different game than the no space no zone defense era of the 80s and 90s
Next on TNT: "Is water wet?"
Thanks to the NBA, play hard and love harder .
So Steph is lowkey a living legend
Back in 2016 whenever I would play pick up games with the youth, they wouldn’t set any screens or cut to the basket. Just jack up threes
Shaq: "I wish I can shoot like that"
Woah there, Atleast shoot like Ben Simmons first
Shaq was a better shooter than Ben Simmons. Simmons is maybe the worst shooter ever.
@@specialknees6798 Simmons can shoot burhh he just afraid of shooting idk why 😪😪
So Candice, if you see a kid doing the same work that Steph did to get his shot to that level you would tell them to stop because Steph already does that. Ridiculous
I see I'm not the only one who though that was comment was ludicrous . She literally said it would take years of replicating that shot. Duh, Candice, what does a small child have at their disposal??? Years to develop!
She has a defeatist mindset. Imagine her telling a young Steph “stop it, there’s only one Ray Allen” smdh
That’s what I’m saying! Steph is a human being and because he was able to do it means ANYONE can! How could she put a negative idea into a child’s mind like that!
@@energenic9556 exactly. completely messed up, candice out here ruining kids dreams on tv.
But she is 100% right, to shoot 15 footers is a horrible strategy, this is not the right way to play the game. That's not "simple", you can't replicate this. Even a decently talented Lillard (or Trae right now in the playoffs), sometimes he can go berserk, but most of the time he can't sustain this level of play and that ends up hurting his own team. Only Steph can do it, it's just too unusual how he can handle the ball, pull up from any distance and still hit 40+%. No matter how hard you train, this is about natural talent. Look at Klay, he is a great spot up shooter, crazy efficiency, but he can't replicate Steph because he doesn't have the same handles, speed, the shot creation, etc Same goes for Allen, Reggie, Rice, etc.. to have this combination of handles + shooting, it's unreal really. And I am not a "fan", not at all, I think his numbers are boosted by a weak league with soft rules. Still, his talent is undeniable. The only reason why players are shooting so much it's because of the zone free rules + the defender can't be physical anymore, so players can run circles freely, the defense can't keep up and you end with specialists wide open. Now take these pathetic rules and allow the greatest shooter ever to run free out there? That's Steph, pretty much, the guy is at the right place, right time. This will never happen again.
There's no question he's the greatest shooter of all time no matter what decade you were born in.
Steph Curry has BEEN the greatest shooter of all time for a few years now.
i got angry at some comments in another video saying larry bird was better
@@thatze3836
But Larry Legend is a better shooter.
Steph is the unquestioned best 3pt shooter only.
@@DemonKing-oi4jd theres a reason why they call Steph the greatest "shooter" of all time not just 3
@@thatze3836
What is the reason then?
Everybody equates shooting with 3 pts now.
Is Steph a better turn around shooter, can he shoot over left and right shoulder, does he have a fade away, 1 dribble or 2 dribble pull up, bank shots, off balance 1 legged shots, etc.
That's not even including hook shots, floaters, etc.
Bird is also a way better clutch shooter...
@@DemonKing-oi4jd Currys a way better turn around shooter he litteraly can shoot anywhere on the court. And hes also a dribble pull up shooter everything u jus mention curry did with ease.

Candace has great point he was on his way after that San Antonio series that was the becoming of the shooting Legend
I love you Shaq for saying that.
Man, may just watch candace allday😋
I just wish Dražen Petrović played in this era
He was taken away from us way too soon... One of the biggest tragedies ever imo (in the sports world obviously). What an amazing player, with unlimited potential.
Man, DWade's fade is 🔥
Change the title of the segment. There’s literally NO QUESTION he’s the best shooter of all time. But we all should take time to appreciate what he’s doing like these panelists are.

Shout out to Candace for mentioning the 2014 playoffs against the Spurs. Klay and Steph both had 40 pt games. They lost 4-2 in a tight series to the Spurs, a team that should have beat the Heat except for Ray Allen. Popovich said after the series, something like 'these guys are here to stay and will be a headache for the NBA'
Im gonna say it.
Who is Candace
Yes
Name another player that shoots "terrible" shots and makes them anyways. Greatest shooter EVER.
I love that Shaq paid homage to a man who was his PG in college and the NBA blackballed. So understand Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul Raouf is the original to do this. My favorite player of all time.
Man they don't give him any credit. He was doing this same thing on Jordan. So where is he at in the conversation. I give Steph credit. But if certain players changed their games what could they do? What about Bird or Reggie playing today and only have to shoot 3s?
Legend is the name!!!!
When Candace Parker told that dude to chill 😂😂😂
I believe we will continue to see steph curry if those kids keep up their practicing .
Most of the vieos, clips and podcasts focus on Steph's 3's and his long range prowess. There are many who never get to see
his over all game and his completeness as a player. He is the GOAT shooter if only for his range and quick release. Watch him.
Even when he is double or triple teamed or is off balance he always squares up so he never takes a bad shot.
He's the best without an inch of a doubt‼️
People need to start talking about Steph as the greatest PG of all time, when it's all said and done, him and Magic will be in contention for this title. No doubt.
“I woulda had to touch em up” 😂
Shaq summed it beautifully about steph!!
Candace so fine.. I'ma cry😭😭😭
No Cap she is
Tooooo fine 😢😢
@Bald Eagle why does this bother me
Candace shaped like a blunt.
Can you imagine if Steph Curry played with Shaq? Wow.
Shaq would average 30 on 65% FG or Steph would average 30 on 50% from 3 depending on who you wanna focus on more. It'd be ridiculous lol
I can imagine how about can you?
that would be a nightmare for the team their up against lol, it will be a pick your poison situation
Chef is the best shooter of all time by a mile. Not only can he shoot, he can make his own shot and hit you from anywhere past half court.
Yes, next question please
