PROLIFIC MF SCORER MF STANDS FOR MOST FREQUENTLY. HE HAD A SLOW FIRST HALF. YOU CAN’T SLOW A GUY LIKE THIS DOWN. BEST SHOOTER IN THE WORLD ERNIE. >> UH I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU. >> THIS THE SECOND BEST WHEN HE’S SHOOTING. WELL KLAY THOMPSON AFTER THOSE FIRST

13 GAMES OF THE YEAR WHAT HE DID NOT HAVE A 20 POINT GAME. >> HE’S DONE IT NINE TIMES IN THE LAST EIGHT 13′ STEPH’S. OH THAT’S TOO MUCH ROOM. TIED AT 121 WITH A BUCK 35 TO PLAY. TATUM NO WAY WAY BOY. LET’S GO TO OVERTIME. LET’S SAY KINNEY

HAVE NOW LOST FOUR STRAIGHT ROAD GAMES. THEY’RE 20 AND SIX ON THE YEAR. BUT THEY’VE LOST FOUR IN A ROW AWAY FROM TD GARDEN. AND STEPH GOES FOR 33. HIS 12TH GAME WITH AT LEAST 30. LET’S HEAR FROM STEVE KIRK. >> UH SAW THE WHOLE PLAY UNFOLD. UH CHRIS ENDED UP

WITH THE REBOUND OR THE LOOSE BALL WHATEVER THAT WAS. AND UH, I SAW HIM LOOK UP AT THE SHOT CLOCK BECAUSE THAT’S YOU KNOW, THAT’S WHAT GREAT POINT GUARDS DO. AND HE SAW, UM, HE SAW STEPH LIKE, HE GLANCED AT THE SHOT CLOCK AND SAW STEPH ACROSS THE COURT. SO CHRIS KNEW HE

HAD ENOUGH TIME AND, UM, NOTHING SHOCKS ME WITH STEPH. I MEAN, THAT SHOT, UM, WAS INSANE. UM, THE CATCH AND SHOOT THE ARC. UM, BUT I FULLY EXPECTED IT TO GO IN AND I THINK ALL OF OUR FANS DID, TOO. UM, THE GUY’S MAGICAL. HE JUST. YOU CAN’T EXPLAIN IT. UM, THAT’S JUST

THE KIND OF STUFF HE DOES, MAN. >> JAMYCHAL A GOOD WAY TO PUT IT AS STEVE KERR JUST SAID. 132 TO 126. GOLDEN STATE TAKES IT IN OVERTIME. UH, I’VE KIND OF RUN OUT OF ADJECTIVES TO DESCRIBE WHAT WE SEE ON A NIGHTLY BASIS FROM THAT GUY. I THINK TIMELY, LIKE HE UNDERSTANDS

THE TIME, THE SCORE AND THE SITUATION. >> SO HE’S ALWAYS GOING TO BE IN THE BIG MOMENTS. HE UNDERSTANDS, LIKE, OKAY, THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY. WE’RE DOWN THREE. FOR ME TO KIND OF GET US BACK IN THE GAME, GET THE CROWD GOING. I CAN MAKE THE PLAY THE PASS

OR THE SHOT. SO HE’S JUST TIMELY, YOU KNOW? OF COURSE HE’S A GREAT SCORER AND GREAT SHOOTER, BUT SOME GUYS ARE NOT GREAT SHOOTERS IN IN TIMELY MOMENTS. THEY’RE JUST GREAT SHOOTERS. YOU KNOW WE COULD THERE’S A LOT OF GUYS THAT HAVE DONE THAT. BUT HAVE THEY EVER BEEN TIMELY

AND CONSISTENT IN THE MOMENT ? I WOULD SAY NO. >> I’M WONDERING I’M NOT SAYING I’M JUST WONDERING BECAUSE HE’S BEEN CONSISTENTLY THE BEST SHOOTER HIS WHOLE CAREER. I’M WONDERING, IS IT TIME TO START PUTTING HIM AS THE BEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME, BEST PLAYER? >> YOU PUT HIM OVER YOU IN

THE CONVERSATION. I’M ASKING YOU, YES, YOU PUT HIM OVER HERE, YOU YOURSELF WITH STEPH CURRY OVER YOU. >> YEAH, THAT THIS IS WHY HE’S MY FAVORITE PLAYER. >> BECAUSE I’M NOT SAYING FAVORITE. HE MIGHT BE MY FAVORITE TOO, BUT I’M JUST ASKING. YOU THINK HE’S BETTER THAN YOU? >> I PLAYED 20 YEARS,

WATCHED 20 YEARS BEFORE THAT. I’VE NEVER SEEN A GUY LIKE HIM. AND HE’S DOING IT CONSISTENTLY AND HE HAS CHAMPIONSHIPS. YOU PUT HIM OVER MICHAEL? NO NO, I’M NOT PUTTING HIM ANYWHERE. I’M SAYING, OKAY, YOU KNOW, FOR ALL THE CHILDREN CHATTER, IT’S A TIME TO JUST PUT HIM IN THE CONVERSATION.

>> YEAH I THINK I THINK HE’S A I’M ASKING THE FANS IS IT TIME TO YOU KNOW, START PUTTING HIM IN THE CONVERSATION AS WELL? >> I’M A FAN OF THE BEST PLAYERS EVER. >> I’M GONNA PUT IT AS A FAN. YES. I THINK IN TERMS OF POSITION, YOU COULD SAY,

IS HE ONE OF THE BEST IN HIS POSITION THAT EVER PLAY? BUT I THINK THE ONE THING THAT SEPARATES YOURSELF, IF JORDAN, LEBRON IS THE ABILITY TO AFFECT THE GAME IN SO MANY OTHER AREAS. WELL, OKAY. BECAUSE HE’S ONE PART OF ONE PART, ONE PART OF I’M NOT SAYING ONE PART

OF BASKETBALL FOR STEPH. NO. WE HAVE HE’S ALSO HAD HE’S GOT GREAT TEAMS AND I’M NOT SAYING WE’RE NOT TAKING HIM AWAY FROM HIS GREATNESS TO SAY HE’S THERE’S A TIME TO PUT HIM IN THE CONVERSATION. >> I’M JUST ASKING A QUESTION. YES OR NO? WELL, THEY’RE HAVING THE CONVERSATION.

>> HIS NAME WOULD COME UP. NO NO, I DON’T HAVE THE CONVERSATION. >> YEAH. AS THE BEST PLAYER EVER. NO. YEAH. NOT AS THE BEST PLAYER EVER. >> HE CAN DO IT ALL EXCEPT HE’S HE’S THE BEST POSITION. >> HE MIGHT BE BEST IN HIS POSITION, MAN.

>> HE CAN DO IT ALL. LISTEN HIS HIS TITLE IS SOLIDIFIED. HE’S THE BEST SHOOTER EVER BY FAR. BUT I’M SAYING BECAUSE OF WHAT HE’S DONE AND HOW LONG HE’S DONE IT, DO WE PUT HIM IN THAT CONVERSATION? BECAUSE YOU LOOK AT JORDAN 6′ KOBE FIVE. HE’S RIGHT THERE LEBRON FOR

HIM I’M A BARBERSHOP TALKER. >> YEAH LIKE BECAUSE I CAN’T I’M GONNA BE YOU’RE I’M GONNA PUT MYSELF IN A BARBERSHOP THAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST AT HIS POSITION EVER WITHOUT QUESTION. >> SO DOES THE PUT HIM IN THE CONVERSATION. WHAT YOU’RE SAYING? OKAY, SO YOU

AFFECT EVERYTHING THAT GOES IN THE GAME. >> HE HAD AN OFF SHOOTING NIGHT IN THE FIRST HALF. YOU SAW NO NO NO SECOND HALF DEFENSIVELY HE MAKES IT REBOUNDING BLOCKED SHOTS. YOU JUST LEFT ME LEADERSHIP. >> DEFINITELY HE’S A GREAT. NOW YOU SAY NOW HE’S IS HE

THE ONE. TOP 2 OR 3 POINT GUARDS EVER OF WITHOUT QUESTION. YEAH WITHOUT QUESTION. BUT THAT DOESN’T QUALIFY YOU FOR THE CONVERSATION OF BEST PLAYER PLAYER OF ALL TIME. NOT PLAYER PLAYER EVER. >> WE’VE GOT PAUL AYTON A LOT OF WATER IN THAT POOL. >> HEY, LET’S GO THERE. REAL COOLER.
