Steph Curry rains threes on court, ends California drought

Approved

lol

Finally agree with lagoon on something.

that gif of his mom may be the most adorable thing ever

they literally have the exact same eyes

my kinda thread obv

I wonder if he's the Babe Ruth of 3 point shooting, if we'll have to wait 25 years for anyone to flirt with his records.

hard to say with all the 'new' focus on the three. Like Klay is already tracking ahead of where Steph was at this point in his career.

not really if you consider percentage.

Klay 768 through first four years
Steph 644 through first four years

assuming dame keeps pace next year he'll be hovering just above 800 through four years jeez

steph basically making about 30-40 more a season over klay tho so i guess it'll come down to health and longevity, but it could be close when all is said and done. dame def gonna be around too.

Kids Today want to do nothing else but shoot 3s and dribble fancy. Would be surprised if any 3's record lasted all that long.

I don't think anyone will make 270 threes at 45% for a long time, other than Steph Curry.

but yes someone could be healthier than curry and get more total three pointers made but I don't care about that record as much. Percentage matters!

what Klay is doing is totally rad and puts him in company of some of the all-time greats, but Curry is just beyond all historical norms in an unusual way for a sport as old as basketball.

how about that Jason Richardson season btw

J rich was awesome. Top 5 warrior

I think he's one of the most underrated players of the past 15 years or so. Underrated dunk contest champion too.

Kinda wild that Korver's best season there was ten years ago.

this is still his best season tho, 49% and all. Sucks he couldn't hold on to 50+.

if you sort by percentage there the only guy close is Glen Rice with that BS short 3pt line.

I genuinely do not remember George McCloud.

i remember him but the 1989 nba draft came at the height of my bball fandom as a kid so i remember those prospects way more than i should. was genuinely convinced sherman douglas was going to be a future all star.

I'm sure I saw him play a lot. Not ringing a bell though.

I watched a Twolves-Nuggets game and a guy fell on McCloud, and the announcer said "hey, you, get off of McCloud!" Main George McCloud memory for me.

the crazy thing about curry is how difficult the threes he take are, hes out there playing a different game than everyone else

yeah, korver and allen would take difficult 3s off screens but Curry is shooting like 40% on stepbacks

I KNOW YOUR TRUE IDENTITY, LAGOON.

[Former Warriors GM Larry] Riley, however, didn't need a workout since he was already high on Curry after seeing him play against Purdue early in his junior season. Riley liked him even more during a predraft camp interview, ranked him the second-best player behind Griffin and likened him to two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash.

His dad made him dramatically change his shooting form in high school which partly accounts for his poor recruiting ranking in HS. Also means his dad is a genius of some sort.

damn if only i had cut strawberries out of my diet smh

couldve been the goat

steph has always had great endurance. he's still about one/two more seasons until i start posting clips in the juiceman thread

“They should put the basket in a casket”

better than dame dolla

If only because Tobe wrote his verse...

This was the closing credits song in his Underrated documentary, which aside from some cuet young Steph footage was remarkably dull.

Makes sense. Except for his supernatural athletic prowess, Steph is too normal a human being to make a thrilling documentary subject.

That's certainly part of it but it was also poorly edited, almost every interviewee spoke lethargically, and it really could've used an NFLFilms-style hypeman narrator.

didn't see it but trying and failing to imagine dray speaking lethargically... assuming he's the exception to the almost

It's mostly about his college days so none of his NBA teammates are interviewed, though dray does have a small cameo.

always innovating

Steph put a random pick up game to sleep.

Defender lost track of him in crunch time, unforgivable.

Steph wrecking Sacramento, again

“I didn’t feel like just one of (the athletes) at first, because people were coming up to me saying, ‘Can I have a picture with you?’” said Curry, who, at 36, is competing in his first Olympics. “It was that type of vibe. I had to actually stop and tell them, like, ‘No, I want to know who you are, what you do and level the playing field, because you’re here for a reason too.’”

Aww Steph!
