Now when Steve Nash was asked the same question ahead of the Nets’ latest encounter, he suggested, “Yeah, it is hard to argue.” 

The Detroit Pistons legend who was the 2004 NBA Finals MVP has made a strong point. Kyrie Irving’s ball handling and scoring from all-around the court has no comparison. But is does he really have a better scoring prowess than Stephen Curry, who is unarguably the greatest shooter from downtown? Well, that must be a hard argument to take a stand for.

Yet, there is no denying that the Stephen Curry vs Kyrie Irving battle might have a lot of viewpoints. However, Nash concluded by stating, “There’s others in the conversation. Obviously, Steph (Curry) is incredibly skilled but just so deadly from long range in a variety of ways. But as far as the ball-handling, the movement, getting to his spots and shooting at all 3 levels, around the rim, (Kyrie is) off the charts, getting to the midrange he’s off the charts, and he’s excellent from deep as well.”
