Paul Pierce: Steph Curry Influenced NBA More Than LeBron James, Michael Jordan

Hall of Fame forward Paul Pierce explained why he believes that Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry influenced the NBA more than LeBron James or Michael Jordan during a Thursday appearance on Undisputed.

"[Steph Curry's] influence on the game has been greater than [LeBron James, Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant]… I watched the Celtics game last night...The first 10 shots were three-pointers. Everybody think they can be Steph," Pierce said.

While Pierce has feuded with James in the past, dating back to their days as rivals on the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat, Curry's influence on the modern basketball landscape has been well-documented.
