The answer reveals everything about how the position has changed. Through game footage and stats, I'll show you why the point guard we grew up watching is extinct at the highest levels. The numbers tell the story: teams with traditional point guards hit a ceiling in today's NBA. Meanwhile, Curry & The Warriors dynasty showed us a completely different way to play the position. I'll explain exactly what changed and why it matters. 💬 Do you think there's still a place for traditional point guards in today's NBA? Or has Curry completely changed the position forever? Let me know! The CP3-to-Curry transition represents the biggest positional evolution we've seen in basketball. Paul mastered everything point guards were supposed to do - control tempo, run pick-and-roll, hit mid-range jumpers, and create for teammates. But Curry's approach - prioritizing movement without the ball, shooting from anywhere, and creating space through gravity - has simply proven more effective in championship basketball. That's why traditional point guards increasingly struggle in playoff situations where Curry's style thrives against elite defenses. #StephenCurry #ChrisPaul #NBAEvolution #PointGuardPlay #WarriorsSystem
