Stephen Curry once again. It's not just that he's the best shooter the NBA has seen, but the fact that he's 35 years old and still playing at an MVP level is just too much. 9 three-pointers in a back-to-back game and there's enough room for more.
There are no adjectives left to describe what Stephen Curry does on a basketball court. It's almost absurd to see the gravity he generates, drawing double teams so far away from the basket.
Here are two examples of what we are talking about. In the first video we can see how the 4-time NBA champion sets up his shot in milliseconds, far from the three point line and with two men over him. It doesn't matter, all net. For any other human being it would be impossible.
In this other example we can analyze the consequences of having to double the best shooter of all time. When the screen comes, you have to pay attention to how far the defenders have to go to catch him. It creates a lot of space in the key, almost an invitation to the hoop. The rest of Indiana's players are already at a disadvantage, three players to guard four Warriors. The result? Easy layup for Steph. Not to be forgotten, the Warriors' #30 has counts in his skills bag with an often underestimated ball handling.
