Kobe Bryant explained the enigma that is Stephen Curry, and he did it in quite the cryptic manner

It goes without saying, and we’re learning this more and more as his career goes on and especially in these NBA Playoffs, that Stephen Curry is about as unstoppable of an offensive force that you can have in the league. We learned this once again on Thursday night, as Curry dropped in 33 points in the Warriors’ Game 2 win over the Houston Rockets in the Western Conference Finals.

Basically, defending Stephen Curry is one of the toughest tasks in all of sports, and it was a topic that Kobe Bryant recently addressed on Twitter. Not only did Bryant address Curry’s greatness, but he even got a little cryptic with his approach.

Kobe tweeted out his analysis of Curry in the form of a riddle.


More or less, what Kobe is trying to say here is that sometimes there’s no way that you can defend the best shooter in the game. You can try to force him into shots that you think are not in his favor, but when you’re dealing with someone as amazing as Curry is shooting the ball, it just doesn’t matter; he’s going to knock them down anyway.

If anyone would know about this, it’s Kobe Bryant.
