Stephen Curry is so good even a legendary point guard can't stop praising him.

As reported by Bleacher Report, current Warriors player development consultant and two-time MVP Steve Nash discussed Curry's maturation and said how the 27-year-old's ever expanding skill set separates him from his contemporary and historical peers.

Nash said, "He's maybe as skilled a player as we've ever had in this game," the retired NBA player added, "But he has improvements to make as far as his feel and comfort, the cat-and-mouse thing, strategy and picking and choosing a spot, conserving energy and getting the same amount done. He can improve a lot, which is scary."

However, Nash clarified that he is not calling Curry the best to ever play the game and made clear that in the interview, he is not comparing the young Warrior to "His Airness" Michael Jordan.

"I wouldn't compare him to Michael Jordan — I wouldn't compare anybody to Michael," Nash said. "But I would say Steph is turning into a historical category of his own, in a way."

Currently, the Golden State Warriors are having the best record in the league with 12 wins and 0 losses. Curry meanwhile, leads the NBA in scoring with 33.7 points per game, separating him from the league's other elite scorers by a very wide margin.

But what makes this even sweeter is his efficiency in doing so. Curry is shooting 52.1 percent from the field, 45.6 percent from the three point line and a staggering 92.3 percent from the free-throw line.

And he is just getting better and better because, according to Yahoo!, the reigning MVP has now overcome his weakness and can now score near the basket.

As noted, this was once Curry's biggest weakness. While his range and handle allowed him to create scoring opportunities in the long range, one way of stopping him was to run him off the three point line and force him to go near the basket.

There, big men will hedge out on him and try to limit his space, forcing him to either pass or make an awkward jumper.

But now, he has steadily improved this aspect of his game making him nearly unguardable. Even his peers have nothing but admiration for him.

In a related report by the Los Angeles Times, Blake Griffin said that Curry reminded him of an opponent he had way back in high school, who dominates game with ridiculous shots.

Even Paul Pierce, a sure Hall of Famer, admired the rising basketball star.

He said, "You look at the top three-point shooters in NBA history, a lot of them are guys that came off a lot of screens, a lot of guys that just spot up and get open, but he seems to get it off anytime he wants."
