Charles Barkley ranks Steph Curry ahead of Pistons great Isiah Thomas

Charles Barkley most recently appeared on ESPN’s “Get Up.”

When asked about where Steph Curry falls as an all-time great, he had a very interesting take: “This is going to be painful for me to say, but I think he passes Isiah Thomas as the greatest small guard ever.”

It’s easy to see where Barkley is coming from, Isiah Thomas was about as tough as they come. The 6-foot-1 point guard, who played for the Bad Boys Pistons, was one of the first score-first point guards to play in the NBA. In fact, shooting 3s was the only thing Isiah wasn’t great at. There are many differences between the two, but Barkley hit the nail on the head with this.
