I think it’s almost unanimous that Steph is the greatest shooter of all time and Magic is the greatest passer of all time. My question is, who has a wider gap between them and #2 + the rest of the pack?

Also, stats are important, but not the end all be all here. For instance, Klay might actually be a slightly better catch-and-shoot 3pt maker than Steph, but Steph is so far and away better at creating his own shot it’s why he is clearly the best shooter of all time. And Magic may not hold the assist record, but you would be hard-pressed by most fans and players if you said Stockton had a similar passing ability to Magic.

    This might be the greatest skill gap in all of sports. Really I can’t think of another one. Steph is ELITE offensively. The guy people always bring up is Kyrie as he is the more skilled in steph in every aspect of scoring than steph except shooting and off ball movement. Keep in mind Kyrie is an elite shooter himself but stephs gap in shooting literally makes it irrelevant.
