The Day Steph Changed the Rules
Before the MVPs, before the four championships, there was this night at the Garden. In this episode of “Anatomy of the Game,” Ben Taylor of Thinking Basketball revisits Steph Curry’s 54-point eruption against the Knicks in February 2013—a glimpse of the superstar who would change how basketball is played and defended. Ben breaks down how…

That Klay-to-Steph and vice versa screening is what Steve separates from Mark. There is really no stopping that especially before Klay’s injuries.

I love that Kmart is part of this Knicks, yet he still talks so much shit about the Warriors. LOL

I love these videos, and I think LeBron’s Game 7 against Boston in 2008 (and even the way they defended him, which was also brilliant) would make for a great topic

It can’t be said enough how violently allergic coaches were to Curry’s style of play. At every level from Peewees to Pros, taking a 3 point shot in transition was an automatic benching or at least a glare from the coach.

Have I watched multiple breakdowns of this game? Yes. Have I seen all of thinking basketball’s videos on Steph? Yes. Am I watching this entire 37 min video? Yes.

I probably watched his video on Steph’s peak about 40 times at least.
A bit because it works like a highlights video but I learned so much and still do when re-watching it.

I like how this guy is not only complementing curry but instead he also focuses on what curry still lacked back in the day

maan, gsw was playing baaad, like to’s for free, hesitation/s like discipline, thinking nyk was gon win, only a few bright spots, the winning culture still hadnt taken place
dray still was not in his triple-couple era
maaan, lbj must be hating the curry era more than the barea era, more than the timmy d era:
nba making videos about curry, about this, about 10 years of the okc game, the HoF making an exhibit about him before they induct him [they’re gon induct him before he retires & they not gon chose lbj on his 1st year of eligibility. watch], people celebrating curry for the 3pt shot & not him for not having no own signature move [wtf is lbj thinking??], everybody doing the sleep celebration, curry having won more on career team contracts than him, nobody sleeping w/his mom, wondering how does he make it staying w/only 1 franchise, thinking how does curry do it w/dray by his side but he left behind ad & bronny & kyrie & luka & brodie & j.r., wondering why curry does not have balcogenesis scandals but he does not either, how curry can make it w/out to’s & flops like he does, how curry does not care about all-time scoring, how curry saved his olympic legacy [his what?] but he lost to puerto rico, how curry did not have to do w/nike going broke but he did, how he made jeanie lose the lakers but curry turned nobody gsw, poverty gsw into a billion-dollar franchise,
