Just what we needed, another tiresome sports debate.

Ma$e knows what it is like to be on top of the world. Currently, on Spotify, the rap legend has 2 million people per month listening to his music. With his top song 'Feel so Good' earning over 127 million plays. Now the rap icon is moving on to discussing highly debatable sports takes. In a recent Instagram Live with Cam'ron, the pair discussed the talents of LeBron James and Steph Curry. While both respect the game of both players, Ma$e believes that Curry is the better player.

The Warriors sharpshooter has continued to climb up the greatest players of all time list. Recently, after the Warriors opening round victory over the Kings, many were making the case for Curry to be a top 10 player of all time. However, being compared to being on the same level as James hasn't been much of a conversation. However, it makes sense that this discussion would finally come up. Check out the comments in question in the video below.

Ma$e Creating Heated NBA Debate

One of the biggest reasons that Curry and James haven't been a comparable duo is their style of play. James is 6'9 and can play every position on the floor. James has been known more as a facilitator who can take over a game at any time. However, Curry is more known as a lethal shooter. Curry changed the entire landscape of the NBA with his style of play. A generational talent that is somehow spoken of in an underrated light because of his talents changing the game.

The debate will now be etched in the front of everyone's brain. Especially now that the two are playing each other in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. The meeting between James and the Warriors will be another reminder of one of the greatest rivalries in league history. However, when describing the rivalry as one play vs. one team, it's hard to say someone is better than that one player. Who do you believe is the better player?
