re: Steph Curry is the best player in the NBA

Michael Jordan didn't need a great shot because he could get any shot any time he wanted from anywhere. Curry can MAKE any shot from anywhere, there is a difference. A layup/dunk/FT/10 footer any time you want any of them is still a superior skillset.

Well in most cases you're absolutely right. But Curry shoots 47% from 3, which is more points than a 2 I think.

I mean stats back this up. Curry has a true shooting % of 64.3. MJ's best ever was 54.7. And yes this isn't taking defense into account, and I'm not discussing careers, but it absolutely destroys your assertion that MJ's offensive skill set was better than Curry (who is also a better passer).
