Yes, because Horny took three big shots a series, Curry takes three big shots a quarter and hits them.

I don't think it's going to be much of a question for too much longer. His skillset is unreal. He creates his own 3's...not many great 3 pt shooters could do that.

I agree. The ability to create his own shot separates him from the rest. If GS can retain Draymond they will win multiple championships. They do everything very well on both ends of the court, and they are as entertaining to watch as any team I've seen.

Bogut is a really good player but as Van Gundy keeps pointing out during the broadcasts, their backup out of Vandy could start for a lot of teams.

Hope Curry is alright. That's why you don't leave your feet boys and girls. There's three outcomes being a block, a foul, or you eating floor boards and 2/3rds of them are bad.

I'm glad that Curry returned. Houston is brutal at the line. GS has has shot 43 threes. The NBA record for three point attempts by a team is 49, Mavs 1996.

GS moves the ball so well. There's no doubt that's the loudest building in the NBA. And Harden has 12 TOs in the game, NBA record.

GS/Cleveland should be entertaining but GS in 5.

This is going to be such a great series. The LeBron and Steph show.

Kobe defined Curry the best of anyone via twitter. Roughly, "when you force a player into exactly the shots you want him to take, but they are exactly the shots he's comfortable making.' -Curry Dilemma

Kyrie is done. That sucks. I'm sticking with my GS in 5 prediction.
