Both superstars have been at the top of the NBA world throughout their respective careers. You'd be splitting hairs trying to decide which between the two was truly greater.
In a recent appearance on the Dan Patrick show, Miami Heat icon Dwyane Wade was given the tall task of trying to choosing which star to start a franchise with .
“That's a tough one. I'm gonna go with Steph,”said Wade.
“It won't make any sense. You can close your eyes and pick.

So I give him a little nod.”
Any franchise would blessed by the basketball gods to be able to have either Curry or Durant. They were clearly Warriors fans, given that both won titles together in Golden State.
