@@liftbread Even if we give you that, Curry is averaging a career low 4.1 catch and shoot shots per game. What about the other 16 shots he attempts per game? And you are probably not an advanced analytic guy but Steph attempts less than 3 shots a game when the nearest defender is 6 feet or more away. A couple of things this tells us, those illegal screens are not getting him open enough so Steph is creating a lot more of his own shots, mainly the midrange and in the key buckets. The 1 thing you have correct is that Steph is taking less "double teamed" shots (Only 2 per game). But just so that you know, he's taking a career high 4.1 shots per game when there is no action. Just him going against 1 guy, no screen, no help defense. Here are those splits: 60/51/88 with a 74 TSP%... That means if Curry wanted to not call any screen help and the defense don't double him, he's on pace of having the best offensive stat in the history of basketball.
Curry is insane, he's still without question one of the most entertaining players and has established himself as one of the greatest players of all time. Hope Warriors get it together so we can go back to back.

Steph Curry even at age 34, Gonna be 35, is Playing out of his mind. And He’s doing all this while still getting Double Teamed, Triple Teamed, to this day. And when you add in the fact that He’s Expanded his game even more by Making more of his Mid-range jump shots, it just makes him that much more Unguardable. I mean, the dude is already shooting nearly 45% from 3 and now 60% From Mid-Range!! That mentality of constantly wanting to get better and never being satisfied is being Proven and Exemplified by Steph. It is what Represents a TRUE LEGEND.

but 6'2" curry has had to rely on his craft and skill since day one that's what makes him so good now and still now.
The thing that makes Curry so great is that he has a huge toolbag of technical skills but also little physical ones that he can leverage through his high basketball IQ to create scenarios where he wins the confrontation. An intelligent, experienced, skilled, versatile player on a team with multiple offensive options that can pop off at any given times is extremely dangerous

hi there, Steph is Steph, no one like him. He used to annihilate defenders for a living. Now, he does it for fun and championships. The thing now is, he's ever evolving and his physique is stronger. So, to answer the question, he'll be there at top till he's 38, with 2 more seasons of solid performances before retirement. 3 more rings, he'll be the best of all time. Take care.
He is like Bird. They don't need athleticism for their game. Their game is based off of solid basic skills, and the will to win

I feel like they have the solid basic skills as a replacement for their athleticism (and height for steph). But as we see other unathletic players, they regress around the same time as those athletic (relatively lower iq) players. But the difference with Curry is that he's getting more and more stronger and athletic as time moves on

I somehow agree with you.. But, athleticism is not all but strength in jumpimg ability (if you ssugests that...). Bird and Steph have stong upper body... Bird is agile for a 6'10 player... SC30 is a 6'3" (AI is 6 flat & dame is 6'2") agile/quick PG that fans don'r give credit hiim more and both Bird & SC30 can dunk which means, they are also athletic (if not above average, they are not that poor in terms of atheleticism)... And btw, both have flexible body (which is rightfully because they are "athletes") & crafty with the ball... Therefore, I can say that both are athletic basketball players in their sizes..

@@niconiconii4561 Teams aren’t making the choice to isolate Steph on a bigger opponent as often as the did in the past partially because the Dubs would make it a difficult task to accomplish such that a team would risk running down the shot clock in their efforts to get that matchup, resulting in them having to rush a shot to beat the clock. I can recall years ago the Rockets trying hard to isolate Steph on Harden and how much time off the clock was run by the time they did.

Because of his conditioning and healthy diet. Something he got from his dad whobwas able to prolong his NBA career which steph wants to acomplish.
Even when he starts to slow down, he will always have that shot
Always gotta tune in!
He didn't add that dream shake recently. He had that type of shot against someone in the FIBA USA practices

Excellent work, nice breakdown. Great and detailed analysis of Steph Curry`s game.
I read somewhere that when Steph Curry got drafted, his problems with injury in his early years led him to choose quickness over speed, he also had UnderArmour develop shoes to his specifications to protect his foot but also to allow maximum traction such that he can shift suddenly without slipping...

I’m glad the comment section actually for the most part) gets it. What does his age have to do with anything? He isn’t good for his age, he is just a great player. It is crazy how people want age people out of their talent. Someone recently said that you think 30 is old… until you are 30. I having been dancing and doing choreo since 4 and 15 respectively. I don’t feel I’m losing anything on my way to 30. I feel the younger people only give me new additions to what I’ve done my best to master. Steph is not ready for the “at the age of…” conversation yet.
The crazy part is when it's all said and done that record will be crazy like 4000 something 3s made is crazy
Steph the GOAT. Forever underrated.
Can you make a klay thompson vid next time. On what he has done so far after Bridges trash talked Klay. Its like his making a statement that he is officially back and awakened. Hope to see this in your next video.

“Splash splash butter butter” Curry in a nutshell
I am just glad that I am alive in Stephen Curry era.
It’s what he does off the court. Conditioning, diet, exercise, sleep, etc. You put in extra work outside. Get amazing results inside.
Here is the real answer: big sports media like ESPN would have you think athleticism is a 6'3 guy dunking but jumping past the backboard. Obviously that's not it at all. He is literally in the best shape for his height, knows where he wants to get to and gets there, and is beyond fast and quick. Even Klay who added bulk to absorb contact better isn't as athletic as Steph 🤦 Once y'all get that, this isn't that surprising. 👍
Accuracy, distance, speed, Splash!!! 💯💯💥💥💥
Hes a shooter and hes constantly moving in fact the team constantly moving and everybody is a threat meaning you cant cheat on him the fact that hes good at his dribbles and hes ambidextrous sum it all why hes so hard to guard.
To answer that question Steph is a master at his skillset
when covering Steph curry. It's best to be up by ten points on them. And play white on-rice style defense and give up the lay-up and rally with 2 pointers with GS and maintain the ten-point lead. Because his team gets motivated and has high morality when GS starts making their threes.
First Love your videos
"Splash splash butter baby" sounds like me making a grilled cheese sandwich 🤣
Hands Down This Decade's #GOAT. Prove me wrong.
Max actually predicted that the last shot wasn't for really for Steph at a younger age but as he grows he'll get better at it. This is the only part of is funny argument I actually argee with because after 2020 Steph last mins shot are deadly and almost certain. He has become complete 💯👌
By “Rockets Assistant Coach” I assume you mean NBA legend John Lucas?
Stephen Curry is on his 15th season, he was drafted in 2009, & started in in the 2009-2010 season
In 2022 he's shooting less but more accurately. Plus adding dominions to his game such as the mid-range. Golden State's ability to develop young talent, shoot at a high percentage, and rely on the strength and wisdom of the ol heads is what makes them iconic.
'123 sheesh' now that got me

cause gsw doesnt rely on isolations. have curry do iso or even post up it would linear and easy to stop. honestly its not even him cause their playstyle havent changed its just because of the system all of them benefited that anybody on gsw would have a clear look or little contest. theyre more relaxed to shoot. curry was never known for slashing and dunking like drose he does running thru screens few dribbles then shoot. he could make thats drives now just because like i said other 4 gsw cant be wide open theyre relaxed to shoot
