There were two point guards that were frequently mentioned as the greatest in NBA history prior to Stephen Curry’s arrival. John Stockton and Magic Johnson are two of the most legendary point guards in NBA history. In a legendary bаttle with another great point guard, Larry Bird, the Lakers’ icon won five NBA titles and essentially revived a flagging NBA. Because Michael Jordan was constantly standing in his way, Stockton never got the chance to win a title. But Stockton has more NBA records than anybody else, including more assists and more steals than anyone else in league history. Just looking at those two statistics should give you a good idea of his game-changing importance.

In the NBA, the Warriors hold off the Clippers, and the Splash Brothers take charge again. ‘This proves he’s not human,’ Steph Curry says as he inches away from making and impossible shot.

In addition to being widely regarded as the best shooter of all time, Stephen Curry brings a unique style to the point guard position. In addition to his legendary three-point shooting, his ball handling is second to none. Thursday he scored 26 points while grabbing 7 boards and dishing out 8 assists. With that effort, he became the first player in NBA history to surpass 325 games played while averaging 25 points and 5 assists. Just 280 games featured Magic and Stockton combining for 25+ points and 5+ assists. We predict that when Curry retires from the game, he will have more statistical lines than the two famous point guards who still outscore Steph in several categories.

We also had a once-in-a-lifetime, unforgettable date last Thursday that happened to coincide with the big three of the Golden State Warriors. The dates were November 30th, 2023, which corresponds to the jersey numbers of Draymond Green, Stephen Curry, and Klay Thompson. The marketing group from Golden State seized the chance to pay tribute to these three. It appears like another championship this season is still out of the question given the Warriors’ recent losing streak. Having said that, each team has only played roughly 20 games so far this season. The Playoffs are still quite far away.
