    Yes Sequence would be illegal now, but Curry wouldn’t look like a scrub even if all he did was shoot open jumpers off doubles in the post. Theres no form of basketball he couldn’t play because he can always catch and shoot and he’s generally gonna be a problem to keep from doing that. Worse off ball players than him still managed to get open and score.

    Hed be Mark Priceish once he cleaned up his modern/downright illegal handle. Worse pick and roll player but if he went back with his modern knowledge he’d be an absolute terror till everyone learned that going under screens was no longer an option.

    There sn't a single player who would abuse the 90s more than Curry if they were transported back in time. He would completely break the game until the defenses learned to play him correctly.

    Mark Price was a much better driver and dribbler than Curry.

    I imagine Curry would play more similar to Reggie Miller and probably average about the same, around 20ppg.

    Even factoring in modern disregard for rules the dribbling difference between curry and Reggie has to be the greatest between any two players ever compared style wise. Acting like there is a dribbling discrepancy between Price and Curry in prices favor making the comparison poor then replacing it with Curry and Reggie?

    Its like you wanted to create a real example of a non existent problem in the comparison I started with.

    Yes retard, the guy that gets zero calls offensively even when he's fouled would struggle the most. Not the other guards that you can't even breathe on.
