Curry vs peak Jordan 1 on 1

[Ca$H]

2s count as 2s and 3s count as 3s. No make it take it. Alternate possessions. 10 minute game. I think Curry could actually win. MJ would score on every possession but it would be mostly 2s. If Curry is on fire from 3 like he has been these last few games Curry would beat him.

With 2's and 3's it would be close

If it was 1's and 2's Curry would win for sure

Nobody would beat Curry under those circumstances.

Nah, Curry is the greatest shooter to ever play, but he's not winning versus Jordan 1 on 1. Jordan's skill set is perfect for 1 on 1.

Doubt Curry would even beat peak Kobe 1 on 1. Peak Kobe would probably demolish Curry 1 on 1.

Curry is on another level in team basketball. However, his skill set wouldn't translate well versus the legendary guards like peak Jordan, peak Kobe, peak Wade, etc...

Peak Wade would murder Curry.

So, no, he would not beat Jordan 1 on 1. Jordan would win 10 out of 10 times.

MJ would post him up every time

But 1-on-1 is not basketball. In a game of basketball, Curry can come off screens like nobody else, can affect the defense just by standing 30 feet away from the basket and forcing a defender to stand there with him, and can use his great passing vision.

You don't even know how strong MJ individual defensively. Curry wouldn't even able to get his rhythm on in front of him.

on current pace Curry will retire as GOAT but i will always give Jordan will beat him 1-on-1 easily by posting him up. Durant, LeBron, Jordan etc will easily post up Curry.
Stopping someone from shooting a 3 is a lot easier in 1-on-1.

[Magic 32]

on current pace Curry will retire as GOAT

He has to do this for 4 more seasons.

And he has to win at least 5 MVP's, 5 FMVP's and 6 championship.

MJ's perfection can be stifling.

And Curry has not shown to be a consistent playoff performer.

He looked very human against the Grizz and Cavs last year.

Jordan would ruin him.

Guys like Durant and Blake Griffin would ruin both him and Curry.

Those long, big, athletic 3's and 4's dominate 1 on 1's. Prime Garnett would have destroyed most all time greats in 1 on 1's but he has never remotely come close to being that go to scorer on a team.

[Phantom84]

Lol Jordan won DPOY as a guard. Also, is there a ref and do they allow hand checking and physical defense? If they do, then Jordan win every time because Curry is going to have a hard time getting his shot off and doesn't have the speed to blow by prime Jordan. Jordan would destroy Curry 1 vs 1 .

[Spurs m8]

They're both amazing offensively....

It'd basically be lost to the worst defender.

And we all know who that is....

MJ would actually wipe the floor with Curry tbh

[Marchesk]

Lettuce be real here,

Prime Oscar would beat Curry 1 on 1. So would have Sidney Moncrief for that matter.

[Foster5k]

Didn't a guy by the name of Matthew Dellavedova make Curry look human in the Finals?

0% chance of beating Jordan 1 on 1.

[Harison]

Curry wouldnt have a chance. MJ is taller, faster, smarter, meaner and can play the defense. The only thing their game is comparably good is offense.
