VIDEO: Steph Curry Calls Out Michael Jordan as One of His 'Haters'
By Michael Luciano
The disdain that older NBA players have for this younger generation of players that value skill and shooting over lowering your shoulder and knocking someone to the floor to hit a 14-footer is truly amazing to watch in action. Even Michael Jordan isn't above diminishing the accomplishments of the modern game, as he declared that Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry, a no-brainer Hall of Famer by any measure, wouldn't receive such an honor if he retired today. Curry finally responded, saying that he'll probably send MJ a pair of his shoes, as he does with most of his haters.
Older players might look down at this era due to the fact that the game doesn't require as much physical toughness as it used too, but not electing a six-time All-NBA player with two MVPs and three championships to the Hall of Fame would be nothing short of an egregious miss.
Sorry MJ and MJ stans, he is clearly wrong on this one.
Curry's Hall of Fame legacy is secured already. On top of the fact he changed the game with his shooting, he has his MVPs and his championships. As soon as his time comes, he'll end up in Springfield. Jordan and any 80s NBA player trying to snipe at Steph's resume is just another example of an old man yelling at a cloud.
