Stephen Curry entered rarefied air Monday night as just the ninth player to win multiple NBA MVP awards and multiple NBA championships.
The Warriors superstar joined the likes of such league legends that the only respectable way to list them is by era.
Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabar, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Tim Duncan, LeBron James — and the Baby-Faced Assassin
That’s a fantastic list to be on, a crème de la crème club pointed out by Carl Steward of Bay Area News Group. Together those nine players hold more than half of the NBA MVP awards before this season (31/61) and just less than half of the Finals MVPs ever given (23/47).
