Paul is widely regarded as a dogged defender, but Curry made him look foolish five years ago. The two-time NBA MVP dropped him to the floor with a behind-the-back crossover before sinking a baseline jumper.

Paul was magnanimous when addressing the play in an Instagram chat with Curry (h/t SportsCenter):

The 15-year veteran explained that embarrassing moments like that are to be expected when you play long enough in the NBA. Curry went on to list some of the times he recalled getting crossed up on the court.

The fact that people are still talking about Curry's slick piece of dribbling today shows it was clearly an exceptional case.
