 Otoh, Curry can't shoot whenever he wants because he's just a 3-point shooter (not really a ballplayer)

	Shooting contested twos is a sign of bad basketball. Bad passing and skill

 Anyway, you'll be envying Donovan Mitchell's 2-point ability should he meet Curry later on (he will destroy Curry)

	Curry is one of the most skilled players of all time. You’re an idiot.

	Yes, Curry got here first. Ray Allen can shoot. The entire history of the league is riddled with great shooters.

 So Curry simply came along at a time when the league strategy was shifting to a 3-point format that spaced out defenders and yielded open looks consistently.
 
 80% of today's threes are open, including 70% of Curry's, according to NBA.com.. Otoh, Reggie Miller didn't benefit from spacing strategy, so he always had a defender attached to him (like when he had to shove Michael Jordan to get open for the winner in the 98' ECF).
 
 NO ONE can shoot like Curry. This is the point we are making. He is/was unique.
 
 Other guys copy but no one is shooting 10 threes a game while being the primary focus of an entire defense and making 46% of them.
 
 Jordan is still the GOAT. It’s ok for other players to be great dude.
