Ahead of a new season in which he will aim to win a fifth title, Curry appeared on the "Gil's Arena" show and was asked if he is the best point guard ever. 'Yes. It's me and Magic? That's the conversation,' the 35-year-old said. 'Magic's resume is ridiculous. So the fact that we're even having this conversation, that's a place I never thought I'd be in. That's why we have these conversations because it's fun. Measuring eras against each other, I love that. 'That's what sports is all about that's why we watch, that's why people get in heated debates about it, I love it. So put me on my own team and I'm going rep myself for sure.' Johnson averaged 19.5 points, 11.2 assists and 7.2 rebounds throughout his illustrious 12-year NBA career. He won five championships with the Los Angeles Lakers during a dominant period for the franchise in the 1980s. The former point guard earned three regular season MVP awards along with three Finals MVPs, played in the All-Star game 12 times was named in the All-NBA first team nine times. Johnson revolutionised the point guard position as the 6-foot-9 star dominated a spot on the court usually occupied by much smaller players. In 2002, the basketball legend was inducted into the Hall of Fame as he took his place alongside fellow greats of the game. Earlier this month Curry revealed another basketball Hall of Famer he would have liked to have played along){kind=link}
