Stephen Curry Most Clutch Shooter Since Michael Jordan? [VIDEO]

Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry tells ESPN other than Michael Jordan he would be his No. 1 option for a final shot with the game on the line.

Curry was asked "with five seconds left in the game, one shot to win it all, and you get to draw up the final play" who would he go to?

"Jordan's No. 1," Curry told ESPN. "I'm No. 2. Then you go Ray (Allen), then Reggie (Miller), then Kobe (Bryant). Three-pointer or not, same answer."

ESPN also asked Curry who wins a three-point shooting contest between him and sharpshooting teammate Klay Thompson?

" Me," answered Curry, before adding, "but I'm sure if you call him right now, he'd say him. That's how it is with two confident shooters."

Curry also branded himself more than worthy of being Western a Conference All-Star and told ESPN about his prospects of being selected to the team this season "hopefully I'll make it, but it's all about the playoffs, man. I'd rather be a non-All-Star playing in the Western conference finals than an All-Star who's sitting at home in May."

As for elevating the Warriors to the status of Western Conference top-flight contenders, Curry told the website "I've heard a lot of Cinderella tags on what we did, and a lot of that is because of the history of the organization. To label a Warriors team as a title contender is foreign to a lot of NBA gurus. It's going to take a lot for us to prove that we're credible when it comes to that praise. This season, staying healthy, that's the biggest thing."
