Harder to guard, Curry or Iverson?

[Enfuego]

Easily Curry.

Iverson better basketball player, but with Curry you have better chance of winning

The question is harder to guard though?

Isn't that a non sequitur?

 

[halekulani]

i think iverson
he is less willing to pass and will try to score on you every fucking possession

curry plays smarter basketball and had an insanely good team so he has ppl to pass to
iverson had a shit supporting cast and has the mentality of putting up 40 on anyone he faces, even if he takes 100 shots to do it.

I typed Iverson, then deleted, then wrote Curry, then deleted it...now I m not sure.....I'm rarely unsure but I am this time..you thinking Curry cause you gotta guard the 3 and pull up 3 from anywhere?

Guy shoots what 44% from 3? He's almost unguardable.

I don't know that there is a right or wrong answer, both amazing players...

I'm skeptical he will be as good as he has been long term

AI, not sure why this is even a discussion.

 

[HacheMan]

Iverson definitely harder to guard...

not a single nba player would say curry

 

[Mr_Mark]

Curry - because he plays in today's NBA, where you can't breathe too hard on a player without getting a foul called

Agree

Curry is fantastic but Iverson could break any defender's ankles & blow by anyone...

I agree. Iverson did have less team help offensively and passed much less than Curry (he was also the 2 guard) But in their first 5 years in the NBA. Iverson and Currys assists are about the same... Iverson was like AP on the Vikes. You knew he was going to get the ball and go for the score but still was almost unstoppable.

Both are easy to guard if they call traveling and palming the ball
