Been a hot topic lately after Steph deemed himself has the best PG ever on a podcast.

Magic Johnson
9 finals appearances and 5 championships in a 13 year career. Underrated scorer at an efficient 52% career shooting.

Steph Curry
Built his own dynasty from the ground up. Similar to Jordan and Lebron, Steph was thrown into a a bad team and turned GSW into a dynasty. Magic joined a great team.

Magic is the best PG, Curry is the best shooter.

Its Steph. The Solo Chip vs the Celtics alone > any chip Magic won with Kareem & Worthy.

Best Shooter of all time, Greatest player without the Ball of all time, Changed how the game is played. 2x MVP, only Unanimous, its just crazy.

Magic, unfortunately, also played in a league where only 3 teams on each conference DIDNT make the playoffs & was able to get a lot of accolades that don't really hold as much weight in those early years of the NBA.

Magic because having an elite playmaker is more valuable than shooting. There are so many volume shooters who can put up eye popping numbers with insane efficiency... much more rare to find a 2 way elite playmaker. The closest thing we've seen to Magic is honestly LeBron

That 2022 Celtic defense with Ime Udoka was just different. One of the best defenses ever during a playoff run. They made KD into a g-league player, Reining champion Giannis into a bum, and beat out a tough 1-seed Miami team. Celtics PG Marcus Smart won DPOY that season. This Celtics team had no answer for Steph Curry. One of the most underrated championships.
