Is Stephen Curry the greatest point guard of all-time? 🤔
🎧: sprtspod.fox/Ep.75
Absolutely
Yes
absolutely not magic played with harder defense
He know enough tho
Y'ALL ACT LIKE NATE TINY ARCHIBALD DID NOT EXIST..........DISAPPOINTING
When Iggy retires, if he doesn't go into broadcasting or media , I can definitely see the Warriors hiring him as an assistant coach. He practically already is.
His already on the coaching staff, did you think the warriors signed him to play just 1 game all season?
He is really important in our youth players developpement, mental coach.... i think he is really useful so yhea as an official assitant coach maybe in a few years
He seems to have a lot going on business-wise though.
@@Gray.12 yup . Nigerian for a reason
@onyechimereze1840 , yeah I get that. That's I why I said he practically already is
Iggy really is Steph’s biggest fan. He is a ride or die, in interviews, his podcast, post game - there will never be one single bad word he speaks on Steph.
He robbed him of a FMVP. That’s enough to win Steph a lifetime if dickriding lol
As he should be
Steph literally got him all his rings
@@SuperHovik crazy to say about a Finals MVP
Of course he’s rude or die. Dude said Steph is the closest thing he’s seen to Jesus Christ 😂
Can we talk about how sick this set is? 👏
These seats are crazyyy
🔥🔥🔥
No
@@14isoldenough no what clown
Steph deserves to be in the CONVERSATION with Magic, it’s that simple. If you prefer Magic that’s fine but Steph has a worthy resume to compare greatness.
Absolutely! I’m picking Steph 100% I think he’s the best PG ever but if someone picks Magic I’m definitely not gonna argue.
Iggy spot on when he say Steph getting everybody's best every night and that's something people should keep in mind when we are talking about the greats. All the top players are going to get every opponents best effort and still have to produce at a high level and that's what makes the greats legendary
plus double triple teamed all the time
Who best is Steph getting? He doesn't guard the other teams best scoring guard. He gets the best night in night out it just sounds good. If KD doesn't show up there this is not a conversation.
And magic had Kareem who was the goat in that team
@D Johnson sounds like a hater, this season alone he averaging 29-6-6 in his 14th year
@@baystreamradio Cap
I became a fan of Steph because I randomly saw a sports video early in his career where the commentators said he wouldn’t be more than a spot-up shooter, he couldn’t get in the lane and a whole bunch of other stuff. I wanted to see him succeed. Then I watched him add something to his game every year to become the extraordinary player he’s become.
Facts I remember my freinds saying a gaurd that skinny can only score from 3 and can’t be fast enough to play make 😂 couldn’t have been more wrong
@@gregyyypooh *guard
watch the best of :A.I. Isiah Thomas, mark price , white chocolate , and Dominique Wilkins! you'll see these new school era players like WNBA players after. Different era , different game! They dunked the ball like daaawgs! now no one even watches NBA . proof, these purse wearing spoiled brats would get destroyed grown man style by part time plumbers and fire fighters and grave diggers, when push comes to shove. $$$ on it.
@@gregyyypooh they said the same to me in 2013 time flies
Man too bad you didn't watch him in college. There's something so captivating about a kid at a small college carrying his team through the tournament.
If Steph got assists for all the open shots and lanes to the cup his teammates gets this would be a different conversation .
They play motion.. move n cut, everybody out here is a threat... Pick n rolls one on one that's new age
Don't ever say Steph and Magic in the same sentence 🤫😳
There is no comparison.
That's not the case though so literally means nothing. Every great player has some gravity that attracts defenders that allows other players to thrive. That's usually what seperates great players from good players.
Stephen Curry just came in with a whole new way to implement that and that was with his three point shot but the simple concept of using your gravity for your teammates advantage isn't anything new.
@@nyckyfossitt432 everybody gets attention like Steph Curry.🧐Stop it
@@Jay-qn1cs why not
I hate the debate on positions. It should be Best Facilitator, Shooter, Scorer, Post, and Glue/Defender.
Steph is the most Lethal off-ball NBA player ever in NBA history. He gets assists without even touching the ball. He can just stand 30 feet out and open up a play. When he makes a cut, many times it leads to a layup, or open outside shot. This is before we talk about how he is number 1 in 3PM and 3PT% of the top 50 nba players in 3PM. He shoots the most accurate while shooting the highest volume. That is impossibly good.
I would say Reggie . But no disputing u g
Well said
@@neworleans018 steph clears
EXACTLY. This is the exact reasoning I give people when they say he isn't a point guard in the traditional sense. They're right, he's not a traditional point guard, but he passes well and on top of that his off ball movement and gravity create just as much opportunity for his teammates as a Magic with his stellar passing
He gets assists without even touching the ball .. Imma need that explained to me lol
the Steph Curry and Jesus Christ comparison, I feel that 💯 he's an angel 😇
It's impossible to compare eras. I am starting to really appreciate the evolution of basketball. Basketball is basically positionless now so to compare with other eras is challenging. Steph is unique and the entire game has changed as a result of his unstoppable jump shot. I look at guys that dominate as being equals amongst the greats because each Era has its standout players.
This was some good ball talk. One of the more insightful conversations I’ve heard.
It crazy Andre played with Allen Iverson and now stephen curry what a moments for him
Curry didn't play bad when Iguodala won MVP
He didn’t dominate either he had maybe one good game and all others were not bad but he wasn’t as bad as people make it seems
@@Reloaded_24_7 go look at what he averaged after game 2
@@Reloaded_24_7 he averaged 26
@@TheZayzkidd3 which is a lot more than iggy averaged
@@hunchogatson7056 he also averaged more points than his mvp #’s that year
Steph doesnt need the ball to run the point. His movement without the ball makes him one of the greatest playmakers of all time, just watch a warriors game and see how many easy buckets his teammates get jsut because the defense gets confused on a switch with curry or something it is actually insanely impressive.
If that classifies as playmaking then Carmelo is also one of the greatest(it doesn’t classify)
@talat aleem Melo was iso scorer. What are you talking about?
@@jakeambrose21_28 he still drew a lot of attention when he didn’t have the ball, allowing more open shots for his teammates. What are you talking about??
@talat aleem but he's not constantly moving off the ball, creating constant confusion for defenses. Nobody has ever moved off ball more or better than Curry.
@@jakeambrose21_28 my point is off ball movement isn’t playmaking. And if you think that is playmaking cuz most eyes are on him then Carmelo was one of the best playmakers too. It’s called opening up the offense
Shout out to fellow Nigerians that strive for excellence in any situation they are in and Andre embodies that salute 🙌🏾
Nigerians? I thought Iguodala was from Illinois
We outchea
@@SixPieceSuits his dad is Nigerian but he is from Springfield IL & it’s an honor to have graduated from the same HS where he showed off his freak athleticism in Track & basketball
Magic Johnson won Finals MVP as a 20yr old rookie on the road in a game 6 vs the 76ers when he started at Center for the tip-off and played both Center and Point guard
Anything was possible in his era.

@@ninobrown90 I watched em. Lol. And no, « tougher » is a myth. They couldn’t defend and offense was a 1 play for the entire game.
@Misaki bro people were not averaging 30ppg a season unless you were jordan stop it with false opinions
Igudoula is very insightful, I always enjoy listening to him!!
I’m enjoying the ride but can’t wait for Steph’s documentary when it’s all said and done
I knew Andre knows ball cos he mentioned Jason Kidd. He's in the convo with the greatest PG
My favorite PG.
I like traditional get everyone evolved point guards
You can't argue with the points that were made here about Steph's game, he's all that. Factor in that he's 6'2" and playing championship caliber basket this long in the league is nothing short of phenomenal, ...and I didn't even get to the way he shoots the basketball! One of the few truly great NBA players.
Both Magic & Steph made their teammates significantly better but in very different ways. Magic had speed, size, and uncanny vision, yet still playing point guard very traditionally as the primary ball-handler and facilitator. While Steph has otherworldly handles, his main threat is off-ball, where he uses his insane stamina to run the defense ragged with the constant threat of his 3s and his supreme finishing at the rim. I'm not even sure if you can call Steph a point guard; he's more like an extremely mobile shooting guard.
This is where I do think Steph is a more valuable player than Magic: not because Steph is a better point guard than Magic, but because Steph's skill set is so unique and so versatile, especially off-ball, that you can play Steph in any lineup, even with another point guard or shooting guards, and the offense immediately gets supercharged. In a game where there's only one ball, I think the future of the NBA will be led by players with "gravity" who can bend defenses off-ball like Steph.
Iguodala is like my favorite Warrior. Loved watching him play when he 'was' healthy.
Unc your set tough man Continue grinding
I agree with Igi, Steph is the BEST in this Generation!!
Nope
I knew Steph had a little extra sauce to him 😂😂😂💯💯💯
I like the way analyzes the game. Crazy He has played with two of the best point guards in history
playmaking really is not a 1 man game. Sure, draymond threw those passes, but Steph's playmaking ability goes beyond his passing. Steph knows how to set his guys up by barely touching the ball.
Absolutely correct about how good James Worthy was. Big Game James is the small forward everyone modeled their game after.
KD tho? In this era? KD GSW were hax.
Wonderful interview with great insight. Still rocking with Magic as the greatest point guard but I do respect valid points Iggy gave
I agree especially his shooting ability and how he makes his magic shots when he drives the ball on the ring. I don’t think anyone ever blocked him when he drives the ball. He is the best of all the best.
One of the only debates where you can agree with both sides. Love just hearing normal talk
Magic Johnson would find players for wide open shots but Stephen gets teammates open just by being on the court without the ball just because of his gravity and greatness I’ll take Stephen version of playmaking any day
😆😅🤣😂
No I would take Magic's anyday
@@rooseveltdarbey9493 Steph > Magic though
@@3fwdt247 Stop smokin sherm
@@mysterion5136 Stop talking about sports, stick to American idol or anime
Lots of great talking points. There are very few versions of a distributing dominant PG these days. Guys can shoot like off guards now and pass which has diluted the meaning of a PG. Chris Paul is probably the last of the I can shoot but prefer to pass guards left.
There's a couple of guys here and there. I think LaMelo and Garland are very good playmakers with the mind of getting others involved before getting a bucket. But I do think they're also buckets in their own right.
But if you wanted to make a book on basketball, and you wanted a TEXTBOOK point, CP3 might be the GOAT
@@KxngKUDA yeah I'd say either CP3, Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, or John Stockton just the way all them see the floor and can pick apart defenses.

Steph is a PG. Maybe not that "traditional" one whatever that means but Steph is running that offense, don't care who is holding the ball.
I love listening to Iggy talk hoop. Imma have to watch more vids of him
Still feel Steph is underrated
You nailed it Iggy,, that’s what SC30 🙌
Magic is the true definition of a true point guard pass and set up teammates better and Magic can get buckets. Magic started at center in his rookie season in the NBA final and 42 points and 15 rebounds when Kareem got hurt.Steph is more of a scoring point guard.
Because the league has changed. Look at the amount of high scoring point guards in the league right now. It is just how the sport has evolved.
Not to mention that Magic is the same size as Lebron, a player that size dominates in a different way than a 6'2 player.
I actually kinda disagree with Magic being a "true pg" simply because him attacking the basket was a huge enough threat to open up plays. That's 1st option territory. And as much as people don't believe it now, true PGs were not 1st options. For example, the media called CHRIS PAUL a scoring point when he came into the league
Flip it how you want to. Curry still greater than Magic
Calling Magic a true point is the exact same thing as saying Lebron is a point
Beautiful! Subbed!
All Time favorite interviews
Iggy is spot on he has a lot of valid point. If iggy was on espn and undisputed he wouldn’t be able to say all of that because everything is scripted they don’t talk hoop all they do is lie and politic . Steph is arguably the best PG of all time he changed the game with his unique style that we never seen before
Stop smoking bro magic is way better
MAGIC changed the game, he's the reason the likes of the PIPPENS, LEBRONS, GRANT HILLs, PENNY HARDAWAY etc are allowed to run the PG position or point forward at their size, these 30 & under cats man got me smh

Of course you never seen magic play
@@jasongordan I've seen Magic play on film, plenty of times. I grew up in the Jordan era, but I'm a Kobe fan. I'm old enough to know how great Magic was. But I'd still take Steph. In fact, "if" you've saw him play in person, it'd make you more biased. We can actually study both players because of film, and not base things off of media narrative.
Taking Magic is not a universal truth. Steph is a better shooter and scorer. Magic is a better passer. Magic is a better rebounder, but he's also taller. Defense is a wash for both. Magic was NOT a great defender, and neither is Steph.
I'm taking Steph all day.
The only way I'd take Magic is if he's on a team with a bunch of shooters.
@@TitusLennon Magic has won more in lesser time plus magic didnt fly across the country to beg another superstar to save his legacy
@Jason Gordan Lol that's the argument you're making? Wow.
Magic never had to fly anywhere, lol he came into the league playing with a Top 5 player of all time. Come on now, that's as weak of an argument as they come.
And besides...you can't compare eras as apples to apples. It doesn't work. That's media controlling your perspective. Magic has never been in Stephs position and vice versa. Magic never didn't win without a Top 5 player.
It's just a horrible argument. Both players are proven, and great. Someone isn't just automatically better because they won more rings, or have more MVPS.
I have real opinions, not media manipulated opinions based on media controlled narratives.
Someone can win a DPOY in one era and still be a worse defender than someone who's never won un another era. How? Because it depends on the season and the era and the competition.
You gotta think for yourself and stop perpetuating media's "truth". Just because they say something a lot, doesn't make it truth.
@@TitusLennon magic is better stfu
Big Guy;
Tks. much.
Unc with the tittles okay i see you!!!
Steph is a pg and I know this is not a popular opinion but let me explain if a pg is supposed to run the offense optimally the steph does that he does not past the ball too the wide open dray or a wide open Poole and some of the other players from 3 is he shoots a better percentage contested then a good chunk of the team does wide open so it still is running the offense at optimal efficiency which is what the pg is supposed to do the only difference is we never seen a player make contested shots like he does from off the dribble ..a lot of people don't understand this
It is interesting that Iggy didn’t answer Shannon’s question. Is he really a PG or a shooting guard masquerading as a point guard?
Lol cause it's a stupid question bruh
He did.. He just didn't put it in simple terms.
I got Steph Curry on my all time starting 5.
1. Michael Jordan
2. Lebron James
3. Steph Curry
4. Giannis A
5. Shaq
That place looks so nice and peaceful
I’d hate to have to pick between Steph and Magic. They played in different eras, so it’s kinda silly. I agree with Shannon that Steph is really a 2. Magic was taller, a better rebounder, post player, and much better passer. But Steph is THE greatest shooter. They were both winners. Take your pick.
I like Isiah vs Steph
@@dominiquejones3805 well that’s not an argument. Is steph easily
That's like saying magic is really a forward because he's still not your typical 6 foot guard. You guys need to step away from the traditional roles.
I’m glad he mention that steph gets everyone’s best effort every night. Imagine having a short summer from winning a chip. Imagine winning 73 when the entire league is gunning for you daily. Imagine needing 7 games to beat kd, westbrook in okc. Imagine going 7 with Lebron, kyrie, etc and it coming down to a shot. Your center is hurt and dreymond losses a game………. Why nobody want to admit, they was just exhausted. They didn’t need kd. Had they not went for 73 they would’ve had the energy to beat Lebron. Kd wasn’t necessary
The lost 3 games in a row plus remember STEPH ASKED KD TO JOIN IDK WHY YALL FORGETTING THAT
Good guy Shannon, you always get Steph curry's back in good ways and you always says the truth no matter what; God will be with you go Shannon.
Based on his analysis, I wonder what Iggy thinks of what Gil says about 80s players
The problem is that to the untrained eye (all of us) we don’t see how this “undersized” team makes it past these athletic monsters because we don’t understand how high IQ basketball really works. There’s a reason why Kerr’s system is so good and why only few could actually master it. Look at all the guys that have been traded (not due to money constraints). None of them were high level IQ players that could adopt the system. Sure they are phenomenal athletes and that got them to the show. But to play as small as they do and for how long they have dominated with all these analysts not understanding why is apparent. Minds like IGGY’s is rare and warriors have a a collection of thinking players. This is the future of basketball.
Speak for yourself bub. It’s easy to see why they have success. They play more zone than anyone in the league. They play harder than most teams on average as well. They have 2 of the best shooters of all time in a 3 pt league tand a guy that’s willing to pass up open shots to get it to them. There’s more to it but that’s the gist of it
@@Talatywotty those are all tangibles that are surface layer. The fact that you didn’t go into any other detail other than what is obvious shows me that this will be my only reply to you. No off ball screen progression to speak of? No culture analysis? You say zone but never went into any coverages worth exploring to showcase the diversity in their defense… I guess you were under that “untrained eye” I was speaking of. Kerr’s system is a master class… nuff said.
@@KMDN__ playing harder than the other team is tangible? Like I said speak for yourself. I said there was more to it implying that I was only talking on the surface(reason why I said that’s the gist). The off ball screens are another aspect that’s on the surface that I didn’t feel like typing. Idc what you reply to or not, your eye is untrained, not mine. Speak for yourself
@@KMDN__ they run a lot of the box and one that they stole from Toronto after they beat them with it. But my eye is untrained.

Steph Curry is the best basketball player to have ever stepped played the game. He literally changed the game single handedly a fact we can't deny. He is a true Legend!
Far from the best. Best volume shooter of all time sure.
magic was the first tall PG in NBA history, he birthed all these point forwards & big men dribbling running the point at times
This is a horrible take from a curry d rider.
Such a huge fan of Igu.........
I agree with Shay on that most of the Point Guards r short shooting guards now
Iggy was bout to break something down and then Shannon started over talking him again
People forget that lakers even with Kareem were a second round playoff team…
How'd they win 5 rings then?

Steph runs the point without the ball. That’s the gag. The offense runs thru him whether he has the ball in his hands or not bc of the attention he garners
Two different types of players. You cannot compare the two. They both are great, let's leave it at that. That was a great interview. Bay Area fan, we have rocked with Curry from day one of his career. I still hate the fact they left Oakland. Go Warriors.
so the goat debate is stupid
Magic greatest point guard Steph best shooter.
I like Isiah Thomas game more than Magic. Zeke got the max out The Bad Boys & b4 his wrist was injured he was scoring at will. Magic came n with a Allstars team
By the way, you don't win 4 NMA championships without great teammates surrounding the star.
1:20 Byron Scott?! I disagree with that. He would get cooked by the guards today. I just finished watching the series that the Lakers lost to the Phoenix Suns and Kevin Johnson was cooking him and going to the basket at will. When Pat Riley left and Kareem retired Magic was carrying his team most of the time and especially carried them into the NBA finals against Jordan and The Bulls. 🏀
People aye not remember Iggy was the man n Philly, then he went 2 Denver & he accepted the role of being a piece. Champion & FMVP
Steph is the better off the ball mover & shooter/scorer
Magic does everything else in the game of basketball better

If a point guard's job is to get his teammates open shots then Steph is the greatest PG of all time 🐐
It's not the passing it's his offball movement if you analyze their system it's all steph and it literally opens up his teamates and he's also a good passer.
Couldn't have said it any better 👏 Steph is definitely the best pg without a doubt
Definitely Steph just existing gets his guys open
Point guard. What does one do?? I think it's to be the team's primary facilitator and that one should have all the skills we revere in the game. Handle, passing, scoring, defense, leading the team both vocally and by example.
Did the warriors ever win a championship without Iggy? He's a genius.
Still got Magic.....
Steph is amazing no doubt, definitely in a class by himself almost as a shooter and a very smart player but better than Magic? Nah. Not as an all around player. This guy could play all 5 spots at an elite level plus coach.
Leave the coaching off he was definitely not good at that!

Magic averaged 17 that series. He had one good game after Kareem went down. Magic was words can't explain but Steph is on another planet.
My boy iggy gone hold it 👇👇👇💪💪💪🤷🤷🤷dnt talk down on his guys,💯💯💯🔝🔝🔝💐💐💐🥶🥶🥶.let dem know 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Wardell II just too good. Hater keep hating, this 3 point maker gonna keep making.
Magic is the best PG of all time and to argue Steph is, is just silly. I like Steph a lot and he’s the greatest shooter but he’s not a better pg than Magic.
it over magic steph over magic
Exactly
facts better shooter doesn't equal better PG
I have no idea how and why they are disrespecting Magic!! For more views? Which won't work. Steph is good but he ain't Magic.
@@Merkseason 😆😅🤣
Iggy did his analysis
Chris Paul definitely should be in the conversation about great Point Guards. If I remember correctly, CP was a problem for Steph in their matchups.
The thing Iggy forgets is Magic was facing other crazy teams AND two of Curry's rings were with KD... and THAT team was all-time stacked in an era where no other team was close. Just a PoV. And yea everyone has weaknesses, but the question is can you force them into playing to them. I think that was pretty tough w/ Magic, and he got 5 rings in the golden era of the NBA. MAGIC WAS A 6'9 PG. haha. Who could score...
The team has nothing to do with individual talent,Magic led a team to the chip in his rookie year and won finals MVP. How long did it take Steph to do that? You can't even mention the value of the team, there's almost a 40 year difference,economies have changed. Magic and Larry Bird made the NBA popular,come on bruh. 5 chips,3 MVPs and 3finals MVPs,much more assists. The only thing Steph does better is shoot and movement without the ball. He don't even run the offence
Magic had a Allstars team from jump, cut it out.Aint nobody taking nothing away from Magic but let's b real here
Steph is the offense
