Football stars Micah Parsons and C.J. Stroud recently had a conversation about a hypothetical matchup between Stephen Curry and Michael Jordan on an episode of The Edge with Micah Parsons.
Ultimately, it wasn’t so much a conversation as an argument because they did not see eye-to-eye.
According to a video shared by Bleacher Report, Stroud claimed that Curry would be able to score over Jordan and claimed that his defensive power wouldn’t be able to stop the Golden State Warriors star.
Parsons, dumbfounded, couldn’t believe what he was hearing and the argument ensued.

Stroud said that Jordan isn’t a good enough defender to contain Curry, who would score 20 to 25 points on the Chicago Bulls legend.
He even claimed that Jordan wasn’t a better defender than the late Kobe Bryant.
This is the sort of debate that NBA fans have all the time and they often propose hypothetical matchups that are impossible to create.
The idea of Curry versus Jordan surely is an interesting one because it really would be very hard for Jordan to limit Curry’s output on the floor.
Many NBA stars have tried and failed to eliminate Curry’s ability to shoot and score from just about anywhere.
Jordan was a terrific scorer and without a doubt one of the best players of all time, but even he could be in trouble when it comes to thwarting Curry.
Both Curry and Jordan are known as two of the most talented NBA stars ever but their fans also admit that they sometimes had trouble with defense.
That is what would make this faceoff between the two so fascinating.
