The Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has already spent 13 seasons in the NBA. Over the years, Curry has established himself as not only one of the best players of this generation but also become an all-time great.
Speaking of being an all-time great, fans love to hear Stephen Curry talk about the NBA in interviews, podcasts, and whatnot. The Warriors superstar recently sat down for an interesting interview with Sports Illustrated. During the interview, Curry shared his all-time NBA starting 5.

Stephen Curry’s resumé continues to grow after being named Sports Illustrated’s Sportsperson of the Year. In the last year he broke the all-time three-pointer mark, won his fourth NBA title and was named Finals MVP for the first time in his illustrious career. Ever since adding the latest ring to his collection, Curry’s name has become more popular among all-time lists and during a conversation with SI, he gave his all-time starting five with the stipulation that it includes him.
“I’m at PG, I’m going with Magic, we’ll play hybrid guards,” Curry said. “You got Jordan, you got Dirk spacing the floor, shooting the ball and you got the big man, the Diesel, holding it down. So, that’s a solid lineup I think.”
Curry mentioned Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Dirk Nowitzki, Shaquille O’Neal, and himself in the list. It certainly looks like a decent starting five.
Stephen Curry’s All-Time 5 Wasn’t Well Received By NBA Fans
Over the last few days, Stephen Curry has been under fire for his comments about several things. He also picked himself over the likes of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James. This sparked a heated debate among fans. Similar is the case with Curry’s picks for his all-time starting 5.
If you don’t have Kobe or LeBron in your 5 just shut up.

Love Curry. But he's not in my All-Time starting 5, either.
Magic
Jordan
Kobe
LeBron
Kareem
And yes, I've seen all of all of their careers.

Unlike most ppl who’d try to pick the best players Steph puts together a lineup that would actually work, would win.

A better lineup:
Curry
Jordan
Bird
LeBron
Giannis

He will be the target of the opposing team since he is the weakest link in defense.
This is better:
LBJ- Point Guard
KOBE- Shooting Guard
DURANT- Small Forward
DUNCAN- Power Forward
OLAJUWON- Center

Tim Duncan. There was a video a fews years back when Steph was asked who his top 5 of all time. He mentioned TD in that list..

Id get Kareem in there but with Shaq then hard to make it work.. That aside I’d have the bird man over dirk diggler and have Shaq and Dirk off the bench but what do I know..

Most fans were disappointed with Steph’s list due to the absence of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant from it. However, a few fans pointed out the fact that the lineup that Curry has picked will actually complement each other and work in a real game.
