Knicks and NBA legend Patrick Ewing believes Golden State’s superstar Stephen Curry occupy the same space as Michael Jordan, when talking about his impact in the game.
Ewing talked to NBC Sports’ Chris Mullin about Stephen Curry surpassing his expectation since he saw him playing against his son in the NCAA.
“Steph, like Michael, changed the game,” Ewing said. “You got guys shooting those deep shots and doing the things that he did. Michael changed it by all the dunking he was doing. Georgetown played [Davidson} and my son was on the team so I went to the game. He kicked our butt.
I still didn’t think he would the player that he became. I take my hat off to him. He’s definitely a student of the game, he’s worked at his craft and he has those guys playing together as a team.”
