Official ILH Steph Curry fan thread

The purity of this man's shot makes each one a thing of exquisite beauty. That pic doesn't really show off that side of him, but it does highlight those big brown eyes, which are ok if you like that sort of thing.

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

hit 77 3's in a row in practice?!

needs more dogs smoking pipes

sometimes i am tempted to go back and dig through the post-season thread from the first year steph made the playoffs and find the approx 100 posts i made about steph's beautiful eyes making me swoon and dm my past self and be all dude you don't even know

hypnotic

when i went to basketball camp at age 10 or so they had a guy come talk to us and he was one of these flawless open gym shooter types, took maybe 150-200 shots over the course of an hour and you could count the misses on one hand.

ok, you all think this is more achievable than i do/did, which is totally fine. maybe i'm overestimating it slightly. like, if my 8-year-old came to me a week ago and asked me one of his kid-type questions - i.e. could anyone ever hit 100 NBA three-pointers in a row? - i would've told him of course anything is possible, and maybe someday someone will do that, but ... well, no, not really. even wide open practice threes, i guess i would've thought 90ish % is near the top of what's humanly possible. that's a pretty long shot!

i guess this is why Steph is ... good. :)

I love the ones where he gets a good switch and then just keeps dancing with his man out at the 3pt line, trying to decide whether to embarrass him by burying a 3 in his face or blowing by him. It's like a team making the extra pass to go from high percentage shot to higher percentage shot, just all in one dude.

Technically play-in but this one should've been in that compilation, too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hvdTDij0NE

Dang they really should have won that game.

yup

thanks for that supercut Spottie, he really is beyond belief. I got so much enjoyment from that and I'm not even a bball fan.

truly a transcendent artist

its a list of crypto transactions made by steph curry

right got that, wondering if there was something more significant

Looks like he has about 5k invested. That's like tip money for him.

The fans swarmed around the Golden State Warriors’ player for a simple reason. They wanted to see Stephen Curry, cheer him on and possibly even land an autograph. The only problem: the fans in Cleveland that stood outside the Warriors’ hotel identified the wrong person.

“We’re both light skinned, so they thought I was Steph,” Warriors forward Juan Toscano-Anderson said with a chuckle. “When I took off my mask, they were all disappointed. I laughed. It’s cool to see.”

Looks like a final fantasy summon spell

the first of these, his longest made in-game shot, is from inside THE OPPOSING TEAM'S three point line and it is all net

No team is safe from @StephenCurry30's range.

guess he's hit half-court buzzer beaters against a dozen teams

one thing about steph that most people dont know is in college he never dribbled https://t.co/S0Vr1F1AKL

he was mostly off ball yah

he was basically klay

— Shea Serrano (@SheaSerrano) February 28, 2022

that's a drill alright

interesting to see his form shift as he goes out, mostly putting more legs into it

dude was getting doubled and tripled as soon as he crossed half court was pretty nuts. helps to have draymond as the release valve vs wiggins or looney

For the first time in his career, Steph Curry failed to attempt a FG in the 4th quarter last night.

yeah steph hitting dray out of the trap is such a central part of their offense

Today Stephen Curry '22 (72) overtakes Klay Thompson '19 (70) and Klay Thompson '18 (67) in total playoffs threes made.

He is now tied with Stephen Curry '17 (72), and only trails Stephen Curry '15 (98), Klay Thompson '15 (98), Stephen Curry '19, and Stephen Curry '16 (80). pic.twitter.com/wmJ2TEA5p9

Warriors should think about signing some of those other guys.
