Iguodala: Steph is 2nd-best point guard of all time

Andre Iguodala made a bold statement following the Golden State Warriors' 120-117 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night, calling teammate Stephen Curry "underrated" and the second-best point guard of all time.

"I still think he doesn't really get the respect he deserves," Iguodala said, according to ESPN's Nick Friedell. "Guys think he uses a lot of screens and guys think they can draw mismatches with him defensively, but he's a real problem.

"I think I told (Kevin Durant), he said he missed me on the shot he took, and I said, 'Y'all two are like Michael Jordan, there's no such thing as a bad shot.' That's for real, and people don't understand the presence they bring to the court. Especially on the offensive end."

Iguodala added that Magic Johnson is the best point guard ever. Draymond Green shared a similar sentiment while also recognizing the contrasting styles of play.

"Magic was great obviously, but it's also two completely different types of point guards," Green said. "I don't think Steph is close to being the type of point guard as Magic - at the type of point guard Magic was. And vice versa."

Johnson won five rings and was named NBA Finals MVP three times. The 12-time All-Star led the NBA in assists during four seasons and earned All-NBA first-team honors nine times.

Curry has led Golden State to three NBA championships, and he was the first unanimous regular-season MVP in league history. The 30-year-old is averaging 28.4 points per contest on 48 percent shooting across 52 appearances this season.
