    Default Is Curry even better offensively than Iverson?

    First off I love Curry and will say he's the greatest shooter to ever play the game. But when referring to the greatest offensive player to ever play was he even better than Iverson?

    Iverson may be the best isolation gaurd in the history of the NBA. The big difference with him and Curry is Iverson NEVER called for picks. He created his shots off of isolation. I'll admit Curry is the better player. But an idividually better offensive player?

    Anyways, watch and enjoy video:

    Nope, he's not.

    Curry = overrated. Which means LeBron beating him in the Finals is overrated as an accomplishment.

    Yes he is. But the thing is Iverson knew how to and was willing to draw fouls when the defense got physical.

    Even

    Do you aware , you're talking about top 5 scorer of all time ?

    Btw , If Ivy got close defences like Curry had ; he would average 40 points a game . That's the slashing differential on between Curry and Ivy .

    I'm telling the disrespect was wrong . But Ivy would be far better against defensive strategy of Cavs . But main reason of that strategy was about Curry and Klay . I'm not sure Ivy would guarded by Cavs like that .

    From a fundamental level, yes. No player in NBA history combines shooting, dimes, and handles like Steph. BUT below the three point line and down, Iverson is the superior player. Iverson was a great passing SG himself, was always in attack mode to the rack, and used the midrange game as a huge weapon. In certain ways, Iverson reminded me of miniature version of Jordan. Numbers wise in terms of points and assists, they are virtually even. Both are good for 30+ points and 8+ dimes in any given season.
