“magic invented the triple double” guess Oscar doesn’t exist.
MJ did not text bro
Full quote from MJ:
“Good morning Sir. Although greatest of any thing is always a debate, I beg to differ on greatest point guard of all time with what you said. Magic Johnson is easily the best point guard of all time. Steph Curry is very close but not in front of Magic. You must define point-guard to really have a serious debate. Steph Curry is by far the best shooter of all time, yes his movement has created many shots for his teammates, he’s a career 43% 3PT shooter, but Magic invented the triple-double, not true invented but makes it more noticeable in terms of impact on the game. It’s a point-guard stat to be honest, Magic was the best. We can go on but I don’t wanna take too much of your time, I know you get the point. By the way, Magic has 5 NBA Championships”
That texts is as real as a story that says “…then everyone clapped”
MJ is more likely to break into SAS’s house, spit on his face, and make a sandwich than he is to call SAS “sir”
Steph and Magic might as well have played different positions. It doesn’t really make sense to compare them.
Skip is punching air right now.
In all seriousness, Steph may need another 2 rings and FMVPs to pass Magic in my opinion
(Not an NBA superfan or historian like yall)
A lot of people don’t seem to consider the talent that Curry and Magic have played with. Just looking at the top 75, it’s Durant vs Worthy, McAdoo, Abdul-Jabbar.
mj about to make warrior fans cry
Why is MJ thinking about Curry at 5 in the morning??
Basically all espn and fox sports do now is react andy to the podcasts who actually get nba players on to participate
SAS gotta stop fucking lying about everything. How does he still get to talk on tv after he’s been called out so many time about his bs and he’s clearly making shit up.
currys better than magic, i fear
How anyone can tolerate Stephen A.’s cadence and style enough to listen to him finish a thought, let alone a sentence, is baffling to me.
It’s still Magic.
He accomplished a lot more during his shorter career.
Oscar Robertson, and probably Magic, will disagree as to who invented the triple-double.
Stephen A loves that MJ sent him a text to read on air so he can show how important he is lmao
Stephen A gonna add this to his gimmick now when it comes to debates. MJ gonna be texting him to end all debates.
I can’t imagine spending time of my day watching this trash.
MJ also texted me to say that Curry starred for the greatest team to ever play, admitting that they would have swept his 72 win Bulls team.
I asked him what made him hold the Warriors in such high esteem and he texted back:
‘Warriors? I was talking about the 2023 Brooklyn Nets you clown.’
It’s hilarious to think that Gilbert Arenas forced MJ to text SAS at 5 in the morning
Is MJ also the source for the Lonzo news?
Magic is the greatest PG ever in my mind. But if I was putting together my all time starting 5 to play an actual game I take Curry purely for the shooting.
A guy like Lebron can be my distributor/primary ball handler and the spacing Curry helps provide is just invaluable.
I love MJ but he is wrong.
Magic had Kareem. Also, Robert horry has a ton of rings. Rings so ring counting is stupid.
Curry is the best
Cool response from MJ
Westbrook the GOAT PG then.
SAS received a text from the worst basketball exec of all time providing player assessments and read it on the air
Magic invented the triple double the same way Darwin invented evolution
