Is Steph Curry the Greatest Shooter of All Time? | NBA on TNT Tuesday

as the michael jordan of reporting ernie johnson calls it staffordless look at that run march 29th april 19th career high 11 straight 30 plus point games four games of ten or more threes 78 total in this month of april he's made 85 which is the most for any nba player in any month and he still has two more games to go listen to this in his last 11 games he's shooting 49 percent from three this season he has six games with ten or more threes more than the rest of the league's players combined and on contested threes he's shooting 42 percent which is better than 93 percent of the league this entire segment is just to marvel about steph curry you tried to guard this man i cannot imagine why are you coming to me like that because shaq wasn't going out there and hedging on steph so i just want to know it couldn't have been fun it had to be awful no no um fear you have a little fear and not from like you're scared of a guy but just not knowing what he's what he's gonna do when a guy is coming up and obviously he has an amazing handle but when a guy can shoot from anywhere on the floor when he shoots from going left and he shoots going right and then to give the ball up he's even more deadly with his cuts with his screening with his ability to come off screens i mean he's just impossible to guard so i've not watched this guy i watched him shoot shots candice that i'm like no no that's not that's not a good shot and it's like but for steph that is a perfect shot and so what i love about steph is obviously all the highlights we see from him coming down shooting you know shooting these 50-footers but what i love about him is his ability to give the ball up the ability to play off the ball his ability to pass the ball with both hands and also his ability to go in there and like we talked about he's a great finisher people don't give him credit because we see the half court shots that he make but he's a great finisher with both hands he take contact well so i mean this guy is this guy's phenomenal i've played against the best beat the best i've only seen something like this one time for two years a fellow by the name of mahmoud i do ralph the speed the prettiness the efficiency how the ball went in hadn't seen it and steph is my favorite player because again this is something i've never seen before and when he first came in i hated him did you really i'm the guy that's sitting on the couch and when he goes to the corner and he throws it up no way that goes in and he goes in and then you know i wait he ain't gonna make this neither do i and then finally he earned my respect and he's my favorite player i wish i could shoot like that because it looks pretty i'm glad he's playing in this era because if he played the night era d-wade i would have to touch him up and and it would have hurt my heart having to touch him up because i just like watching him play like he's must-see tv like if i was the guy that didn't play basketball and had kids who wanted to play basketball when the golden state warriors come to town i'm going that's what we're going and then you know the title of the best shooter ever to play don't ask it's him by far by leaps and bounds i remember watching in 2014 when they lost to san antonio yeah in the playoffs and watching this kid put up 50. and i had watched him at davidson of course and watched a little bit of golden state a little bit my brother would be out there trying to guard stuff a little bit but that was kind of when he did that in the playoffs that was when i was like oh like this is this is going to change how people perceive basketball and now you pull up the parks and you see these kids out there shooting 50-footers and i just want to pull over hello there's only one steph curry and that's why i feel like people think they can be like him but they can't there's one of him he's one of one and i think in that way it's fun to watch him but if i have a child and they think that they're able to do the things that he does that's crazy you can't you can't teach that so if layla you saw layla out there i would knock her out like my nephew i'm like you are not steph curry like you've given this speech before a million times you know what you listen to when the hand goes like that's serious he's giving this speech before man when kids go out there and think that he doesn't over time replicate that jump shot where he finishes his shot now kids are out there doing all this like steph and that takes years and years of you know perfecting your game so i think he's one of one so would you say ice trey and steph curry like for the hawks yes yes i think but steph is still one of one what my favorite thing about this season for steph is and i played a similar role right great player in the organization another great player come down that kind of overshadows your greatness and steph took a back seat similar to what i did and we kind of forgot about steph curry when kevin durant was there and he goes through the injury last year and now he's like hello yeah two-time evp is back and he's back with you know a level that we have never seen out of a two-time mvp this is he may not get mvp this year but this is definitely for him it's probably one of one of his favorite seasons of his entire career when it's all said and done i was reading that when everybody was in the bubble he was working out the same time they were playing because they weren't there and put on five pounds of muscle to get up to their speed there is a race right now for scoring leader so last night bradley beal dropped 45 points to overtake steph curry by point one we are going to have a race to the finish for scoring leader now steph curry has already won two his last one was back there he he has won one he's looking for two 2015 was the last time he won if he were to win he would uh become the oldest scoring champion since michael jordan who did it in 97. mj did it 10 times wilt 7 kd for shaq two so he would join a list of 19 that had two and i know you would have had three if david robinson didn't drop 74. the clippers would have played some defense yeah i mean if the clipper's in point shave that's okay yeah he's not mad no i'm not mad at all i like bradley beal and see i i'm i'm not really qualified to answer this because all my points is in skype but i'm i'm one d-wade candice maybe you can answer i'm wondering as a shooter can you say i'm going out and get 50. because i know when i used to tell you to get 50 you should go out same thing with kobe and lebron so as a shooter if you say in your mind i'm going to get 50 tonight can you do it or does it just have to happen well beale shot 37 shots last night i mean the career high for curry is only 33. so he seemingly was shooting his way to that but his question to you i'm not a shooter so i can't act but as a scorer i might be the best shooter when you in this kind of rhythm like this that these guys are in 50 is not chill you averaging 30 at night 50 is like okay let's get a little hot tonight a couple

“I might be the best shooter here.”

“Chill Lefokoe.”

I really like the new Tuesday night crew.

Anyone that has an argument for anyone besides Curry is high on drugs. Steph has been the only answer for quite some time now.
