Thousands of people have reacted to Curry's epic performance over the final two games of the Olympics (he scored 60 points in that span).

Recently, former NBA All-Star Jeff Teague spoke about Curry on his show (Club 520 Podcast, h/t ClutchPoints).

Teague: "He's the best point guard ever. Top-five player of all time... If he gets another ring, he's definitely up there with Kobe now."

Curry has spent his entire 15-year career with Golden State.

His career averages are 24.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.4 assists and 1.5 steals per contest while shooting 47.3% from the field and 42.6% from the three-point range in 956 regular season games.

He also leads the NBA with the most three-pointers of all time (3,747).

There is no question (at this point) that he is one of the 12 best players of all time.
