Curry enjoyed lighting up France in front of Durant and LeBron
THE BABYFACED ASSASSIN LIVES ON!
For years the NBA has fallen victim to Stephen Curry’s heroics, hitting gravity defying shots over the outstretched arms of defenders.
Now the world has seen it, with Curry now back stateside after winning a Gold medal in Paris for the American Men’s basketball team. Check out his thoughts on hitting one of the greatest daggers of all time in the Gold medal game to put the French team to sleep.
Imagine you’re a professional defender, proudly believing you’ve locked down the relatively diminutive point guard Curry. Then, just as you dare to blink, Unanimous impishly launches a shot from another zip code. The ball arcs high, like it’s thinking about its life choices, before splashing through the net with supreme accuracy.
You’re left pondering your entire basketball existence, wondering if reality is what you always believed it to be. Curry jogs away, mouth piece dangling, sneering at the crowd, already celebrating with teammates like the audacity of physics-defying trick shots is just another Tuesday. You realize that you’re not a defender: you’re just another extra in the Stephen Curry Show.
But wait, what if you’re his teammate, and your name is Kevin Durant or LeBron James. You’re an all-time GOAT level talent, with enough accolades and statistics to send nerds down Basketball Reference rabbit holes for hours. You’ve won championships, you’ve won gold medals, and here you’re WIDE OPEN in the final minute of an Olympic Gold Medal game in Paris while li’l Curry slithers through a double team.
Which is exactly what he wants....
