Stephen Curry has unlimited range. Considering he’s the best shooter in the history of basketball, this isn’t exactly breaking news. Regardless, this shot he took and made in Saturday’s game against the Pistons is a brain melter.
There are over three minutes left in the first quarter. There are 17 seconds left on the shot clock. Sure, the Warriors are down by eight early, but we know by now that no deficit is insurmountable for them. There’s more than enough time for the Dubs to get back into this. Because Steph Curry cares about exactly none of these things, he decided to pull this one FROM THE MIDCOURT LOGO (via @BenGolliver):
Is Curry THAT bored with the regular season already? What is Kentavious Caldwell-Pope even supposed to do on this play? Curry must be the only player in the league you actually need to close-out on once he crosses the halfway line. And even if you do, he’ll probably still drain it.
