Steph Curry is at the point where it’s hard to impress us these days, because we’ve seen it all at this point. What else can a guy like him do at this stage of the season to really wow us, or do something incredible, and….did he just catch a pass one handed and hit a shot in the defender’s face?

(H/T RealGm)

That’s not fair…okay so what’s so enjoyable about this shot is a lot more subtle from Curry’s usual game. It comes off as a little easy, but that has to do with how easy Curry makes it. Look at how he’s floating through the air with momentum when catching the pass. Keeping himself in bounds there at the corner isn’t easy when catching the pass, and doing so with one hand just makes it that much more difficult. Then, because he’s Steph Curry, he hits the 3-pointer with a defender right in his face.

Like I said, that’s not fair.
