Whether it’s Magic Johnson, Dwyane Wade or Stephen Curry, all three have a track record that the vast majority of players can only dream of. But who is the best all-time among them? Several former stars of the league like Dwight Howard and DeMarcus Cousins have debated.
Right now, Stephen Curry is in Paris for the Olympics. And if the two-time MVP is selected for Team USA this year, it’s obviously because he’s one of the league’s biggest superstars.
Better yet, he’s considered by many experts to be one of the best point guards of all time. As such, he’s often been pitted against Magic Johnson in discussions.
And as such, the Chief has an important role in a debate about which is the best American team in history.
Some will say it’s the ’92 Dream Team, others the 2008 Redeem Team with Dwyane Wade, and there will also be those who will lean more towards the 2024 team.
In the podcast “DH12 Above The Rim”, Dwight Howard, DeMarcus Cousins and Quinn Cook got together to answer the question.
Who was better: Magic Johnson, Dwyane Wade and Steph Curry?
Dwight Howard : Why do you think this year’s team is the best in history?
Quinn Cook : Because it has Steph Curry.
Dwight Howard : Steph is too short compared to Dwyane Wade. He was really the Flash when he had his head shaved in 2008.
Quinn Cook : D-Wade wouldn’t be able to handle Steph.
DeMarcus Cousins : He’s the third best shooting guard of all time!
Quinn Cook : And I’m still talking about the best point guard of all time.
DeMarcus Cousins : Do you think he’s even better than Magic Johnson?
Quinn Cook : Yeah, Steph Curry is the best.
That being said, there are many arguments for the Splash Brother that go in this direction. But the same could be said of Magic Johnson or Dwyane Wade. Because if the three profiles are very different, the question of their individual contribution to the American selection is more complicated than it seems. This is why we will also find NBA fans on the web who disagree with this opinion.
Wade in his prime was too physical for any version of Steph Curry. This guy would have needed a lot of screens because he can’t do anything else without them.😂
Quinn Cook says Team USA 2024 is the best in history simply because Stephen Curry is on the roster. He even went so far as to say the Warriors superstar is better than Magic Johnson and Dwyane Wade, which some considered disrespectful.
