Steph Curry owns that guy
What a bum
He will keep these 3s records for a long time and may be forever.
It’s the volume plus the percentage too. Harden was brilliant that year, but shot 4% lower than Steph’s worst season among the top 5. Steph’s just an alien
Steph is crazy. Best shooter of all time.
do we think steph’s injury near the end of that 2016 season changed his peak trajectory permanently? while he’s certainly developed and refined his game a fuck ton since, seems like he’s still never reached that transcendent peak he had in that regular season
K
Steph curry is steph curry’s father
About time Steph Curry surpassed that overrated bum
45.4% at highest volume ever what the fuck
Such a high percentage for the difficulty of shots. Imagine if he wasn’t the primary player and just hit corner 3s. Imagine would be over 55%.
When Steph retires, within 5 years, they will make another award for most 3’s made in his honour. It shall be called the Draft Kings Over on the 3 Award
He’s Skyfucker for a reason
Steph’s 2015 – 2016 season still blows my mind.
The fact that before that year, no player had ever hit more than 300 three-pointers in a season, and he proceeds to finish with 402.
Greatest individual regular season of all time to my mind.
God 15/16 season is insane. 400+ threes made on 45% fucking wild
There was a point in time like a couple months ago where Steph was actually just barely on pace to hit 400 again
I’m sure his records will be passed by people in the future from a pure volume perspective
But the efficiency on that volume is absolutely insane
Does he break his own record this year?
As great as Steph is, I had no idea that Donte Divencenzo had the third most 3s this season. Why did the Warriors let him go??
God that 2016 season was ridiculous
They said it couldn’t be done
