Stephen Curry puts himself above NBA greats
Curry was asked to make comparisons between himself and basketball greats in an interview after being named Sportsman of the Year by Sports Illustrated magazine.
“I love you, Kobe, man, but I gotta go with myself, right?” Curry said.
The legendary Boston Celtics player Larry Bird was the next to be eliminated by Curry.
“That’s a great shooting competition right there, but, as you’d expect, I’m winning that one too.”
The next name suggested was LeBron James, a star with the LA Lakers. James and Curry have faced off four times in the NBA Finals, with Curry coming out on top three times.
“What do you think? What do you expect me to say? It’s me.”
Next on the list was Jordan: “Mike, I love you man, it’s me.”
For the remainder of the conversation, Curry maintained his composure and even supported himself to defeat LeBron James and Michael Jordan. Having said that, he couldn’t help but smile when questioned about Jordan, as if in jest.
