Gilbert Arenas set the tone in the NBA in the years that he shone. But the former point guard recognizes the talent and, above all, the influence that Stephen Curry has had on the game, since he has greatly changed the way we see and play basketball.
Arenas in an interview said that during the time of ‘Magic’ Johnson, who won 3 MVPs and five championships with the Lakers, no one wanted to be as high a point guard as he was. However, now all the kids want to be like Curry.
“Luka Doncic is the guy, obviously, that’s right on the precipice of accomplishing all those accolades… when you play against him, you can feel it.”

“The influence that you really have on the game from the player position. I look at the stats and I’m like, okay, ‘Magic,’ then Curry. When I look at the kids and I see Curry, it’s like, no,” Arenas said.
Steph’s four championships, unanimous MVPs, and his nine All-Star Game appearances prove it. He also became an unconventional base that everyone now wants to imitate in the NBA, with his spectacular shots from unimaginable distances.
“Stephen Curry has a lot to do with it. To have this kind of effect on the game, you have to do something extraordinary. Ultimately, Steph’s impact on basketball and the way it’s played is something we can all witness,” he said. .
