Steph needs an All-Defensive team selection to be Top 5 All-Time? (alien.top)

Steph is one of my favorite players ever and he is playing out of his mind right now. However, I can’t in good faith put him as a Top 5 of all time, even though I want to.

Curry’s next mountain to climb is an all defensive team. That’s the only thing missing from putting him in the same conversation as MJ, Bron, Kobe, Kareem, & Duncan imho. They were all top of the league two way players. Steph is no longer a defensive liability, but is it unrealistic to expect modern players to be All NBA and All Defense if they want to be considered all-time greats?

Maybe I’m trying to force a player into a conversation that they don’t belong…

Steph is so good at offense we can have Draymond can't play offense on a starting five
