Not many know former Brooklyn Nets guard Mike James. James recently criticized Steph Curry and referred to him as a one-dimensional player, following which he received plenty of flak.

On "The Odd Couple" podcast with Rob Parker, analyst Chris Broussard called out James for his comments, referring to him as a "journeyman." But he was quick to point out that everyone had a right to their own opinion.

"Let me say this because, it's tempting, you barely a journeyman and you dissing one of the greatest players in history," Broussard said. "But I'mma say this. Mike James, just because he is not nearly as good as Steph, just because he is not a full time NBA player, doesn't mean he can't have an opinion, and he might not be right."

James only played in the NBA for two seasons, during which he represented three franchises.

Steph Curry rarely gives attention to the negative comments dished out against him. The Golden State Warriors superstar has always avoided confrontation, be it on the court or on social media.

During the annual Curry Camp, the Warriors guard commented on James' take. He was asked what it would look like to go one-on-one with any of the 26 people at his camp. He stated that it was going to be bad for them and then jokes about being "one-dimensional."

"It's all bad for them. All bad for them. Even as one-dimensional as I am." Curry said, after which he chuckled and described himself as petty.
