Stephen Curry has recently ignited a debate when retired NBA superstar Gilbert Arenas asked him if he thinks he’s the greatest point guard in NBA history. Boasting four NBA titles and often cited as the greatest shooter ever, Curry unequivocally declared that he is.
While Curry’s opinion is bold, it’s far from a consensus opinion. Many argue that Magic Johnson, long viewed as the best point guard ever, still holds the title. The discussion is presently intense, with Johnson and Curry both being heavily debated as the top choice.
Amid all this, Arenas has offered up a different angle to the ongoing debate. Expanding on his views, Arenas has mentioned Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, known for his point guard skills, as another player who deserves to be in the conversation for the greatest point guard of all-time.
“[Lakers] moved Norm [Nixon], they gave the ball to Magic because it was better played by a guy at that size… If you’re gonna try to use Magic as the ‘point guard’ then you have to throw LeBron as the best PG.”
