Curry vs peak Jordan 1 on 1

[QUOTE=La Frescobaldi]Kevin Durant is not going to post Michael Jordan. Not ever happening on any planet.
Leonard destroys him regularly.
Jordan would make him cry every single possession no matter one of them which had the ball. Totally serious Durant is not remotely in that category.[/QUOTE]
:biggums:

We still talking about the same Durant? The near 7 footer, with freakish length, athletic, almost unlimited range, can put it on the floor and with a sick set of step back and fade away jumpers who also happens to be one of the best scorers ever? I am not saying he beats MJ but he would give MJ a much stiffer challenge 1 on 1 than Curry. Like I said, in 1 on 1, height, length and size matter.

yes the 6'9" in shoes guy with long arms, not as athletic as Mike but still great, nice range, etc.
that dude who is built like Pippen but without any of that defense.
You guys are almost perfectly backwards on this.

Jordan wouldn't have much difficulty destroying the mentality of Durant. Break his mind right on the court with pure physical prowess.
He's not [B][I]stopping[/I][/B] curry without flat fouling him - not even Mike.

[QUOTE=jstern]Ok, I see that you're just trolling. Nm.[/QUOTE]

Jordan vs Kobe is the ultimate 1 on 1. Even Jordan knows it, quit being bitter.

And Pip couldn't touch KD's offensive game. KD has the length to shoot over MJ and that alone is a huge factor in 1 on 1. He also has the superior range and heigh/length for rebounds. Let's just agree to disagree.

ok good.

Because we ABSOLUTELY DISAGREE about Urant.

I don't know about Durant. He would have a much better chance to beat Jordan than Curry would.

I was strictly talking about guards. Jordan and Kobe Bryant pretty much unbeatable in a 1 on 1 versus any NBA guards in NBA history. Peak Wade probably is unbeatable too.

Jordan is on another level though. I remember watching him block rookie Shaq. Lmao. Dude is blocking rookie Shaq and people think he would lose to Curry in 1 on 1. :oldlol:

Next level shit here folks. Jordan is not losing vs anyone in a 1 on 1. Curry would get literary destroyed.

so people already forgot mj was DPOY and 9 X all-defensive first team?

curry would actually have a pretty good chance against mike with his jumpers. as far as i remember jordan's ego wouldn't let any drive on him so he'd sag off everyone and hope for a decent contest. curry would thrive on that.

otoh, curry ain't stoppin mj at all.

Gary Payton killed MJ one on one, Curry would make it look easy

1-on-1 is a different animal.

there's no running up and down the court. there are no screens, no pick and rolls, no 3-sec in the key. none of that shit.

jordan is bigger and so much stronger than curry. mj could probably just back up like shaq and score 10-15 straight buckets on curry with 2-ft layups.

Nobody questions that to the point we can take it as given. But OP specifies no make it take it.

So the real question is can Mike stop Curry over every square inch of the entire area from the basket to 35 feet out.... all the way around both sides of the court.... and do that perfectly... so good that he doesn't even get that tiny [I]paper-width of separation [/I]which is all Curry needs to be a Splash Brother.

I'm saying no.
Kerr is right, nobody can guard every inch of the court.

Pippen would murder MJ 1 on 1

[QUOTE=sd3035]Pippen would murder MJ 1 on 1[/QUOTE]

unless he has migraines, no he won't

Kobe would have best chance of beating MJ one on one but still Jordan would come out on top.

Curry would get destroyed. This Curry talk is going too far.
