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.
Well, since Rajon Rondo is the best passer and Dame Lillard is the best shooter, I don’t know what you mean by this? The media narrative and what’s actually true aren’t the same. Rajon Rondo is the best point guard of all time, without question or debate. Dame and Steph can be debated, but when you compare the supporting cast each has had, it becomes clear that Steph wouldn’t have anywhere near the success he has had with the lackluster support Dame has been surrounded by.
