Stephen Curry Sounds Off On Michael Jordan, LeBron James GOAT Debate appeared on nbaanalysis.net by NBA Analysis Network.
Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry told Willie Geist of Today there are multiple NBA GOATs and that it’s hard to compare the eras Michael Jordan and LeBron James played in.
Jordan and LeBron are universally recognized as the two greatest players in NBA history.
“I ascribe to the mindset that there are multiple GOATs,” Curry said. “And I hate that, it’s not a cop-out answer, but it’s so hard to compare eras. And getting into that conversation of, ‘Oh if you put Michael in this era or if you put LeBron in that era,’ it’s kind of unfair. It’s a great barbershop debate and it’s something that’ll never stop until the end of time.”
LeBron and Jordan have combined to win nine regular-season MVPs, 10 championships and 10 Finals MVPs. Jordan won six championships, six Finals MVPs and five regular-season MVPs with the Chicago Bulls during the ’90s. He went 6-0 in the Finals and three-peated twice. LeBron, meanwhile, is a four-time champion, four-time Finals MVP and four-time regular-season MVP.
