MICHAEL JORDAN? The greatest goddamn basketball player of time. The guy who would absolutely annihilate Curry in a 1v1 matchup.


Come on man.

Well now we're getting into a discussion of talent vs skill.

MJ's far more physically talented than Curry. No one would argue otherwise.

But one could easily make the argument that Curry's more skilled. There are many more basketball players that have more skill than MJ. But MJ's greatness came from a combination of skill and talent. When that's the comparison it's not really close.

MJ's talent just took him to places that Curry can't go, no matter how much he practices.

There is a difference between best player and most skilled player. Jordan has size, strength, quickness that can't be taught. These qualities make him a better basketball player than Curry, but I don't think he's nearly as skilled.
