Kerr offers intriguing counter to Shaq’s Curry proposition

Following the Golden State Warriors’ 132-126 victory over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night at Chase Centre,

head coach Steve Kerr meets with the media.

The argument about Steph Curry’s place among the greatest NBA players of all time doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon.

But after the Warriors star sealed a 132-126 overtime victory over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday at Chase Centre with one of his trademark flurries,

Shaquille O’Neal posed a question on “Inside the NBA” following the game that enthralled both Curry fans and critics.

Shaq said, “I’m wondering is it time to putting [Steph Curry] as the best player of all-time.”

“You put him over you?” asked Kenny Smith.

Shaq said, “Yes…I’m asking the fans, is it time to start putting him in the conversation as one of the best players ever.”

“I have a question… He’s been the best shooter his entire career, so I’m not saying,

I’m just curious. Is it appropriate to declare him the greatest player of all time now that I ask? O’Neal enquired.

Shaq faced resistance right away, as fellow pundit Kenny Smith questioned him about whether he would rank Curry higher than himself among the greatest players of all time.

Indeed. Much better. Of course, Shaq replied. He’s my favourite player because of this.

I watched 20 years prior to playing 20 years. He’s unlike any guy I’ve ever seen.

He’s winning championships and doing it consistently.

I’m not placing him anyplace; rather, I’m asking:

Is it time to just include him in the conversation with all of this blabbering?

I want to know whether you guys think he’s one of the greatest players of all time already.

On Wednesday, Warriors coach Steve Kerr spoke on 95.7 The Game’s “Willard and Dibs” programme.

When questioned about Shaq’s remarks, Kerr had a thought-provoking rebuttal.

I adore that. I believe the question—which may not even be a debate—

is this: Is he the greatest player of all time? Kerr queried.

There are numerous perspectives on who is the greatest and most skilled,

among other things. You can take into account things like length,

size, and athleticism as well as scoring from inside or outside.

“Steph is the best basketball player I’ve ever seen, in my opinion.

Nobody has ever been able to shoot, handle the ball, shoot from the distances that he shoots from,

finish in the lanes with such rhythm and fluidity, or with such skill.

Nobody is as adept with the ball as Steph Curry is, in my opinion.”

Curry’s remarkable NBA career may be summed up in a variety of ways, regardless of whether he is considered the “greatest,” “most skilled,” or “most influential” player of all time.

Whatever definition you choose, though, there’s no disputing that Curry should be admitted to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
