Curry almost had a perfect round in the 3 point contest last year, can't wait to see if he tops it this year.

Opponent crowds can't even get mad watching shit like that clip. The crowd is just laughing because how can you hate that skill.
I guess he needed to make up for the last 2 low scoring games.

Now that Curry is clearly the best player in the league and perceived as an unstoppable force, I'm curious to see how defenses adjust next season when they've had an entire off season to reflect on the ass whoopings Curry gave them. Although he played excellent last season, he's unstoppable this season. Will there be a kind of Curry Rules next year?

What the hell Kerr, let the man get his record. Guys drops 9 3s in the first half and his plan for the second half is to give the rest of the team the ball. Let him chuck him ffs. He finishes with 11 and doesn't even tie the record.
Meh

John Wall just dropped 41 points and 11 assists, his team scored 120, and it still wasn't even enough to make it a competitive game.
Ridiculous.

Does it really matter the last 6 minutes of the game? That was some bullshit, should have let the man start chucking and finish with 13.

I don't know what they'd be. You couldn't base them on the Jordan Rules. The league doesn't allow anything near that level of physicality anymore, and even if they did, the rules were basically
1) If he comes in the lane, kill him.
2) Make him give it to that headcase Pippen.
What would the equivalent be for Curry? Clotheslining him as soon as he crosses half court and hope he still doesn't get a 4-point play off of it? It's not like he doesn't have minimum three other players who can kill your team from deep as well.

Shout out to Wall, you did the best you could. Just not a strong enough supporting cast.
From my OP: An Analysis of the Steph Curry Supernova
This is a little less of an analysis of how he shoots, and more of an analysis of how his shooting is affecting everything around him. But kind of applicable.

Steph Curry is cheese in real life.

Makes it look effortless. He's a video game character with 99 in everything come to life.

i dont know what broadcast agreements are in place but its ridiculous to me that more/all warriors games are not nationally televised. i barely watch the nba, but i would watch curry every night.
edit: holy shit. 51 pts on 27 fga. that is a pretty efficient night. unreal.

This is fucked.
I would be so pissed if that happened to me in 2k.

But seriously, Curry may be the best player of all time by the end of it.

They and the Cavs both have the most this year at 25.
One problem is that every team has to be televised once. And there's some kind of balance thing in there for conferences or divisions or something I forget.
Every other sport is wishing they had a Curry right now.

I don't have experience with NBA 2K but why is/was 3 point cheese a thing? Is it that difficult to code the success rate of 3 pointers to match what happens in real life (or, well, happened before Curry)?

got to see this guy play at the All Star game. took a last second shot at the end of the game from near half court just because the crowd cheered for it, and he made it 
awesome player to see live.

So is Curry officially having the greatest individual season any athlete has ever had?

In real life there's various things that limit three point specialists from taking every shot.
In a video game, there isn't, so you can just pass to one and jack it up over and over.
You want to prevent that, but still have any decent three point guy wide open in the corner bury it half the time.
As an example in the article, the one thing 2K did was drastically limit off the dribble threes. This generally isn't an issue except on the margins, so it makes for a nice quick fix. Curry refuses to participate in this bell curve.
Nope, he's Alex Ovechkin, who's also leading the league, and has his team off to the best record in NHL history through 59 games.
So the Warriors aren't the only club chasing history this season.
You can't compare a player who most in the wider public actually heard of though. It isn't purely stats. Everyone knows who Sephora Curry is. He broke through, he became part of the wider culture. Overchkin? Not at all. Part of what Curry is doing is how he broke through. Everybody knows what he is doing, he has impressed the world.
Not even close. Gretzky's single season record is 215 pts. The next closest non-Gretz season is Mario Lemieux in 5th with 199 pts. Steve Yzerman is the first non Gretz/Mario in 14th at a relatively paltry 155 pts.
Don Bradman the cricketer has what's generally accepted as the most out-of-wack WTF performance in team sports, but I don't really understand that game. They say he's better than Gretzky was at hockey over his run.
Well, he's impressed America at least. And hockey has a small pond, to be sure, but in Canada, the Caps are making huge noise.

Has Ovechkin ever won a title?
