[@JustAnObserver69]

The thing with Steph is that he is a unique type of player that changes a team's playstyle to cater to him with his sheer ability to shoot the ball. GSW has perfected that by allowing him to get off the best shots possible with their screens. Even if you put him in some other team, Steph will eventually become their system(you can't ignore his scoring ability) and change the team's culture (work ethic/team mentality). There's a reason he is the first pick for most GMs to build a team around. I know if I'm making an all-time team, Steph's running the point and will probably be my first pick just because of his ability to break down a defence with his gravity & off-ball movement. The other team will also have to guard him from the half-court, which creates more space for his teammates. I've seen some people backtrack from saying Steph would be top 10/#1 point guard if he won this chip with finals MVP. It don't matter, he might never be given his flowers by other people, but real recognizes real. The legends of the game acknowledge Steph's greatness. And as long we get to witness more of this beautiful brand of basketball, that's enough

[@isaacwillis725]

Something I just thought about between MJ And Curry is that MJ had to go against the top of the Bulls organization, his tenacity and individual grit of overcoming the tension within the organization is an amazing accomplishment and for all of them to play well when Pippin was having trouble and so on, it is amazing that they were able to do that. Curry created the culture and there probably has never been a more United organization than the warriors have. Curry creates unity, MJ created a high pressure situation for his team in almost the opposite sense. So the. It just depends on what you value more: grit and the individual intensity of MJ or the Uniting power of Curry to create a team that everyone wants to play on, including Lebron right now. I would say both are so incredible.

Steph had a great finals scoring 31ppg so I just had to check who has the record. Of course, MJ with 41ppg on the 93 finals with 50% fg and 40% from 3pt. We probably won't see anyone be as dominant on both ends of the floor as MJ but Steph has really been a breath of fresh air since Jordan retired. I think Steph's shooting overshadows his amazing ball handling which is what actually allows him to get more shots up vs other great shooters who had just as pure a shot but not able to get as many looks.

No matter what great small forward you choose, there is a pretty good chance that cowrie leonard would be able to limit their effectiveness.

@maxkellerman you pick and choose. Simple if you that wilt wasn't that impressive because of his height advantage. By that same logic then that means steph height disadvantage makes him even greater. If lebron gets credit for being genetical freak of nature which give him cleat advantages. Then stephs lack of advantages makes his accomplishments that much more impressive. If you are comparing a 6'2 guy to a 6'11 guy in KD what does that honestly say about curry. When you objectively look at it. It's a guy 6'2 with stats comparable to the top. With impact as revolutionary as the top 5 doing it in the "king James era" who the beat number 2 guy 3 times at 6'2 and who you can definitively say you would start your franchise with over 50 percent of your top 10 list. It's clear he is top 5. Probably at that #5 No one in the top 5 has beat another top 5 player more than once. Bron didn't play with those guys. Magic and Kareem never beat mj in the finals. Mj only beat magic once. But curry has beat the #2 3times in his Era had more impact in the #2 guys Era has the same amount of rings in the #2 guys Era. Actually if it wasn't for curry lebron may have 7 or 8 rings and he would be the clear cut goat. He stop something prolific in the lebron Era. Curry is number 5. Period. A wise man once said " I look at greatness by how you faired against your contemporaries" Well Max his contemporary is the #2 player on that list. How has he faired?

I think Steph has been one of the top three if not the number one best player in basketball basically since the 2014-15 season. His style of play has been so unbelievably revolutionary in changing the game of basketball, it’s debatable he’s changed the game more than anyone ever. To me, Steph Curry’s a top 5 all time player, and I didn’t think he needed this other championship to be considered that, but now that he does have it, I don’t think it should be overly debatable. The least this championship does is invalidate KD, so that makes me happy too!!!

[@arjayfrancis7400]

You can’t say that first year they played Lebron he took them to six games with injuried players and scrubs..second year he came back 3-1 to beat them on there own floor..what happened next they realize year one was luck so they called kd to come help them out it took 4 all stars/hall fame players to stop an 30 year old something man if the warriors never got kd they would only have 1 wings and that’s facts curry has 1 finals mvp lmao he obviously wasn’t the best player on his team for 3 out of the 4 rings curry is the best shooter to touch a ball but he is top 12 at best

[@sambrobst6852]

Their comments about Wilt honestly make me think of KD. One of the most unstoppable forces to ever play basketball, players talk about him like he's not fair. But his career is taking the arc of Wilt's, where he just didn't get as many rings as some other guys on more talented teams.

[@darwinfinche9959]

The disrespect of Wilt Chamberlin is crazy!! The average height of players back when Wilt played is only one inch shorter than the average height of players today. Also, there was no free agency back in the day. The Celtics had a loaded team. There is no way Wilt could have beat that loaded team. For example, James could not beat the KD warriors. Wilt would dominate today's league in a way not seen Shaq. But, Wilt would be even better because he could get better players. Wilt is a top-three player all-time. Even Bill Russel has said that Wilt was better than he was. Wilt was 7'1 275lbs. He ran faster than Jim Brown; could go into the weight room and lift with Arnold.

[@johng4099]

Wilt would have been great in any era. He's in my top 5 due to how dominant he was as an individual player. Wilt always gets disrespected due to how far back he played in & the recency bias that so many fans have goes against him. The only reason I have Russell ahead of Wilt is due to the rings since 11 is so much greater than 2 rings. Russell's greatness on defense helped the Celtics' offense a lot which people tend to forget due to all the attention being on offense most of the time.

[@TeamDaemon1980]

In a couple years, Larry Joe Bird might get kicked off. I consider Larry as clutch as Michael Jordan. Deeper range. Taller. But he won 3 rings and was only good for 8 years. Prime lasted 4 (1983-1987).

I think Wilt and Bird are the players you could argue most about to overtaken by Steph. Bird was the more consistently great Player than Steph, with just a lot less injuries (9 all nba first vs 4) and he definitely was the better defender and rebounder. He is much taller and heavier though, and Steph is obviously the better scorer, shooter, on par with him in passing, but has won more chips. For Wilt. He is likely the most dominant player in NBA history, but he didn’t win many titles, his stats all dropped towards the playoffs, and he is notorious for stat padding. Yeah he was really great, but him chasing points and rebounds was a lot like Westbrook chasing triple doubles. Great stats, but doesn’t do much towards winning games. Shaq and Duncan have the 3 FMVPs, and Kobe has 5 rings. If Curry were to win another chip or another regular season MVP, we can talk about Top 5 to 8. As of now, he is 9th at best, 11th at least.

[@nonutemperor]

[@showdaKOs]

Duncan has 5 rings and dominated a lot more than people think (even faced with Shaq), too underated in my opinion.

[@bryanmcloud4121]

I could see Steph overtaking Wilt, but not Larry. As you said Larry is just the better overall player. I have Steph around #13. Number of championships is still geared towards a team achievement than an individual one, and as much as I like Steph as a 3pt shooter, there are better overall scorers than him. What hurts Steph compared to the Top 10 and Top 12 is that they are more complete players than Steph. They are better rebounders, passers, and much better defenders than him, overall. I wouldn't put Steph over say Kobe or Shaq who I have at #11 and #12 respectively, because while Steph is the better 3pt shooter, Kobe and Shaq were just better overall players, especially Kobe who was a much, much better defender than Steph.

[@nonutemperor]

You can't take Duncan out of top 10. If I put magic at PG, Jordan at SG, LeBron at SF, Duncan at PF, Shaq at C, no chance of losing to any of the other top 10 contestants.
