Who would you consider to be the better player in their respective peak (absolute best) season?

For Curry that would be 2016 and Magic 1987. This has nothing to do with longevity, just a comparison about who was better at basketball for single campaign or at their peak ability. Pretty much a debate for highest level of play this game has seen at point guard.

I'm a huge Curry fan but slow your roll with this bait post. :scust:

Incoming 30+ page argument where Gil never concedes
How's it a bait post?

Common sense thread and I replied with a common sense post. Did you even read the OP? He's talking about both of them at their "peaks" - not their careers.

If we talking about single seasons and not careers then this isn't even close.... Curry easy

Isn't Curry having like the most efficient and dominant season ever or some shyt like that? Never mind the fact that his team is on pace to have the best season ever. And isn't MJ and maybe Wilt the only one who has comparable numbers?

I think MJ peaked at 62.5% for his true shooting percentage. Curry was at 70% last I saw :scusthov:

He beats both of their numbers if you give Curry the same minutes. Dude has been the best player the NBA has seen when on the court this season.
