    Im glad we got Gil a former player speaking realistically. I dont onock currys career at all but im old enough to have witness Ray, Nash, Dirk, Peja, Kirk, Korver etc. If they shot the ball as much as curry does bro curry would just be another name on the list if shooting assassins. Me personally i never thought he was the greatest shooter ever but he is the most efficient given the amount he shoots the ball which is probably why he is known as the greatest. Which is why we gotta respect it if he is called the greatest but in reality we all know if ray and nash wanted to turn up and avg 30+ppg cmon man it would be a whole different story.

    its true offense stops offense. its overwhelming to a team on the offensive side when the other team is scoring 10 to 12 points every 3 minutes in a quarter. that equals at least 40 points and the opposing team feels pressure to score. i would see the warriors with kd and the Brooklyn big 3 do it to even the best teams like the bucks
