There’s nothing in basketball quite like trying to distract a shooter at the free-throw line. It can range from having a curtain with people behind it, a large individual painted in a weird color or some giant poster.
During Game 6 of the NBA Finals, Cavaliers fans decided to go all in on their troll of Stephen Curry every single time he went to the charity stripe. Each time curry shot a free throw, there would be a photo of “Mr. Rogers” right in his line of sight.
However, old Fred Rogers wasn’t just in the classic pose that made him one of the most beloved men in America. The photo had some brand new Curry 2’s in the photo with him to signify that it is indeed a shoe for an older person.
While the troll was perfect and hilarious, Fred made everything he did cool and if he was wearing a pair of Curry 2’s back in the day, you better believe that everyone would be rocking them and sweaters while playing a game of basketball.
