Stephen Curry is a huge basketball legend, and he struck again at the Paris Olympics.

In the semi-finals and then in the final against the French team, he was the one who saved Team USA from defeat.

For Jeff Teague, that deserves real historical recognition.

For his first career Olympics, Stephen Curry honored the Team USA jersey, but also his status as the best shooter of all time.

After a rather complicated start to the tournament, marked in particular by his fluctuating shooting, the Chief woke up for the two most important games of his season.

While his team was being mistreated in the semi-finals against Serbia, he took matters into his own hands by scoring 36 points, including a long-distance bomb that allowed the Avengers to take a decisive advantage in the final seconds… And as if that wasn’t enough, he was also the one who buried the hopes of the French team in the final.

Stephen Curry at Kobe Bryant’s level in history?

While the Blues had come back to only 3 units with three minutes to go, the Warriors’ point guard put on a show by chaining 4 long-distance shots, each more impressive than the last.

Moreover, for some observers like Jeff Teague, who spoke on his podcast, it is time to ask the right questions about the number 30’s place in history.

After the final, Angel Reese’s cash request for Gabby Williams: “Would you like to…

For me it’s official, he’s the best point guard of all time.

And I think that if he wins one more ring before he retires, he will be in the discussion for a place in the all-time Top 5.

I sincerely don’t see many players who are really better than him.

With one more ring, he will undoubtedly be at Kobe’s level.

In the minds of many professional basketball players, Kobe Bryant sits just behind Michael Jordan and LeBron James as the sport’s GOATs. For Jeff Teague, with a fifth ring, Stephen Curry would have a strong case to join that podium in the Mamba’s place.

But for fans, this hypothetical scenario isn’t even necessary.

I think a lot of people would say he’s already eclipsed Kobe.

Not only did Stephen Curry revolutionize the game in the NBA, but he’s also won all the most prestigious titles… So for Jeff Teague, he deserves the title of best point guard of all time, but also a place in the Top 5 GOAT’s if he wins one last ring.
