Stephen Curry is a current NBA all-star, and Charles Barkley has made some pretty outlandish comments regarding whether or not he can compete with teams from the past.
As one of the best basketball players alive today, Curry rarely receives negаtive feedback from the general public.
Barkley thinks Curry would not have been as good or dominant a player in the 1980s and 1990s as he is today.
Steph Curry, according to Charles BarkleyBarkley lauded Michael Jordan on “The Bill Simmons Podcast,” saying that Jordan “got the job done” despite the rugged and occasionally filthy play of the late 1980s Pistons.
Barkley told Simmons, “You have to acknowledge it’s a lot simpler to play basketball nowadays because you can’t strike anybody.
Can you imagine if the Bad Boys were beating the living daylights out of Steph Curry, as much as I love Steph Curry? That’s unfathomable, right? Despite my undying admiration for Steph, I have to ask: “Do you really think Steph Curry wouldn’t break if he took the blows that John Salley, Dennis Rodman, Bill Laimbeer, and others like them were dishing out to Michael and Scottie and myself and guys like us?”Many would probably dismiss this as just another example of how a formerly great athlete begins to believe that the current generation has it easier.
However, one could аrgue that today’s younger players have it tougher than ever before due to the impact of media and social media.
