The NBA Playoffs are in full swing as 16 teams fight to make it out of the first round and continue their quest for a championship.
One of those teams is the Golden State Warriors, who currently have a 1-0 series lead over the Houston Rockets after winning Game 1 on Sunday.
Golden State will now try to take a commanding 2-0 series lead on Tuesday night in Game 2 before heading back to The Bay for Game 3 and 4.
Of course, Stephen Curry has led the way for the Warriors this season and played a key role in their Game 1 victory over Houston.
Curry is chasing his fifth championship this season, which would tie him with NBA legend Magic Johnson in total rings, which has continued to spark a debate on which player is the best point guard of all time.
On Wednesday, Snoop Dogg appeared on ESPN’s First Take where he gave his thoughts on who is the best point guard in NBA history between Curry and Magic.
“Magic didn't shoot threes. I don't think either one of them played great defense. (Steph) changed the whole game of basketball,” Snoop Dogg said. “That’s why I feel like he’s close to Magic because he’s got that other level of changing the whole narrative of basketball like Magic did when he came out of Michigan State.”

Snoop Dogg makes a valid point about Curry changing the game, the same way Magic did whenever he entered the NBA.
Of course, with Curry’s three-point shooting, he has changed the game to a more perimeter-based league where teams shoot a ton of three-pointers, unlike they had done in the past, especially during Magic’s era.
Because of this, Curry is clearly in the running for being the best point guard of all time but even Snoop Dogg wouldn’t give who he believes leads the race between Curry and Magic.
Despite this, there is no doubt that both players have had a massive impact on the game of basketball and both deserve credit as being one of the greatest players in NBA history.
