NBA Legends Explain Why It’s So Hard To Guard Steph Curry At 36 

hate is normal

Tbh Steph is always said to be overrated but then when you ask them about Lebron they will always say that even when he’s 40 that he’s should be in top tten players in the league.even when the lakers are play in team

%100 agree

You’re bugging 😂😭 You needa go talk to them niggaz in the east back in the day, Toronto and the Pacers, like you really bugging

@@sb-rn5ez100% cap… everyone fears lebron… why do you think they team up to beat him 😂

@@christophermclin1509aint seen people double team lebron like they double team curry

And with a skill that proves to translate in other ways. His touch and ability around the rim is elevated by his shooting. His shooting makes his off ball movement the deadliest ever. His gravity opens up scorers unlike anyone ever. It all trickles down into an unstoppable flood.

Yep. If there are two fundamental skills in basketball, they have to be shooting and dribbling. He’s clearly the best ever at the 1st (by a mile) and I’d argue is at worst top 10 all time at the 2nd.

WHAT??? GET out of here, when he's not making shots he disappears MJ and kobe never ever disappear.

@@joeemanuel5049 “when he’s not making shots” Rarely happens, brother He is one of the best players if not the best moving without the ball. How long has it been since you’ve watched a game?

He's definitely great, Curry. But the most exciting? Please..... His Airness by far was must watch...

Reggie Miller Ray Allen comes to mind when talking about screening and cutting . Curry is a student of the game. He patterned his game after 2 of the best that has ever done it.

I’d take Steph over him 9 times out of 10

He's getting into his grown man strength phase, he's slowly getting the green light to be more aggressive at the basket. He had a lot of moments last season where he reminded me of Baron Davis goin to the basket!!!

Bro I swear he has like 5 different channels

The content is all quality though even if he's clearly a curry/gsw fan. Too many wannabe trash bball channels out there

David who?

Completely new video, just revisiting the topic as our last video was many months ago.

@@MrSports This guy sounds exactly like Hoop Reports lol

@@sebastianwong4454 yeah saying a whole lot of words but saying basically nothing. as long as it gets ya to 10 min vids i guess

😂

Brainrot response lmfao

I can see where you're coming from, and yes, a lot of players today don't really understand the intricacies of off ball play. But to call Steph's off ball movement "overrated" is cynical and disingenuous. It's not just about filling in space, but adjusting to the biggest variable in the game. Steph moves more than any superstar throughout history. He is a constant threat inside and out. He gets a shot off in .4 seconds at all time great accuracy. He's literally the only guard top 10 all time in EFG% and the only one who's average range of efficiency is over 20ft from the basket. When he is on the court, you HAVE to crowd him regardless of your assignment. That leads to defensive breakdowns when a lack of communication moves an extra defender away from their man. That's why he's had many different players thrive in his system. Combine that with the fact that he doesn't only move to get jumpshots, but to also get backdoor cuts to the rim, collapse defenses for others to score, even just to get people to LOOK at him, and that all plays into why he's an anomaly.

If you gave Jokic a player like Curry, he'd be unstoppable. Because Steph's effective range of danger expands to literally half court. And no one runs like he does EVERY GAME. He'd make MPJ take good shots. That's how much attention he draws.

Absolutely not.

@@KxngKUDA nah basketball players are just behind so you think that. If off ball movement made you amazing, then all my 11 year old soccer buddies as kids would have been impressive as fuck to you. Curry has every other skill to make that makes him amazing. Dont get me wrong its a skill but basketball players just dont recognize how reproducible his off ball movement is. And i mean pro nba players do not realize that. It is such an easy thing to do, you make it sound generationally rare when that is paradoxical to the very reason i made the point. Baskbetball players have a BLATANT off ball deficiency in general. It was actually surprising just how bad everyone was at my local park when i first started playing a couple months ago. Literally no one understands how to move off ball. Not trying to belittle nba intellect because these players are intelligent, but seriously elementary school soccer kids are better than some nba players. Russ for example does not have the faintest idea of seeing and filling empty space. And i know russ is a smart individual so the contrast between being so smart and not knowing such basic elementary concepts that soccer kids learn young was soooooo surprising when i watch nba as adult. Thats why im recommending soccer over football, which is a dangerous sport most will never go nfl and even myself got injured playing, and many youngings always play bball and football when they should drop that garbage rough sport and play soccer and bball as well. This will give them the best set of skills.

@@KxngKUDA like bro im really not tryna diss. I really cannot express how absurd the contrast between this billion dollar league paying players millions of dollars and them struggling with things that kids in soccer have to know. Passing is just under prioritized which is fine, bball plays a lot different. Which is why a lot of players arent aware of the disparity. They just dont know because they arent aware of the perspectives like mine which if taken into account, would improve every players skills tenfold.

Who are you again?

Say a Nobody dont hate Winner try be " Somebody to"

You trippin
