The debate regarding the best point guard of all time often centers around Magic Johnson and Steph Curry. The debate gained more momentum after Curry referred to himself as the greatest point guard in league history on Gil’s Arena. Many have disagreed with him, but recently, Michael Jordan, the greatest player ever, weighed in by texting Stephen A. Smith that he believed Magic was the best point guard.
Many people argue that Magic Johnson is the best because he has a better resume, in a 12-year career that came to an unfortunate halt, he won 5 Championships, 3 MVPs, and earned a Finals MVP in just his rookie year, making him a sensation. Magic’s resume overshines Steph’s, but the argument for Steph is that he changed the way a point guard plays by being a score-first player who creates opportunities for his teammates through assists and off-ball movement, resulting in a lot of space.
Someone who has closely observed Stephen Curry’s journey to the top is Brandon Payne, his personal development coach since 2011. Payne has played a crucial role in Steph’s growth, and while discussing his rationale for considering him the best point guard, he mentioned that the Golden State Warriors star is possibly the most skilled basketball player to have ever played the game.
“He’s quite possibly the most skilled basketball player that has ever played. He has the combination with his skill level, his decision-making ability and his level of conditioning. As his career has gone on, he has had an increasing level of strength. You have a player that is great at all of those things.” Payne said.
Twitter trolls Steph Curry’s coach for his comments where he called him the most skilled player ever
The discussion between the two basketball greats regarding who is the superior point guard continues unabated. With Steph’s trainer’s praise, Twitter erupted into amusement among fans and himself. Here are a few:
Although Steph excels in shooting and off-the-ball movement, there are other aspects of the game where he requires development. The situation left Payne’s comments in an embarrassing position, with fans fiercely attacking him.
Payne and Steph have been seen working out a lot this offseason, refining Steph’s skills and working to ensure that he stays in the best condition and at the peak of his skills so that he can make true on his promise of winning another championship next season.
