During the latest episode of Podcast P, which is presented by Wave Sports and Entertainment, LA Clippers star Paul George shared his thoughts on the Steph Curry vs. Magic Johnson debate. The Golden State Warriors superstar and the Los Angeles Lakers legend have been the topic of discussion over the past week, but George believes both Curry and Magic can be the GOAT point guards.

"Nobody is wrong," George said. "This is why the debate stuff is starting to get so annoying. Because who is going to be the person to be like, 'He's right.' But neither one of them is wrong in this situation. Magic Johnson is the GOAT in what he did in his era, at his size, the way he could play-make, the way he could create, the way he saw the floor. Whereas Steph Curry revolutionized the point guard position to where now we're seeing shooting point guards. We gotta highlight Magic, because he is the GOAT. Steph Curry is a GOAT."

George has remained consistent with his opinion on these "GOAT" discussions, as the Clippers star believes there can be multiple GOATs because of what so many players have accomplished. Not believing anybody is wrong for arguing in favor of Curry or Magic, George thinks both players can be seen as the greatest point guards ever, because of what they did in there respective eras.

Much different players, Curry and Magic got the job done in different ways, but the bottom line is that both players got the job done at a level never seen before.
