No need for the /s

The extra half second of think is funny. 'Nah...there's a tree behind me'

But anyways, Steph is def gunning for his 3pm in a season record. The volume he's putting in is ridiculous. Another 7 bombed in tonight

Tight Steve Kerr benched him three seasons ago when he had 11 threes in 3 quarters

If Steph and Wemby were on the same team could Wemby lift Steph up by the legs so Steph could shoot uncontested from like 11 feet in the air?

If the Warriors would part with a second rounder they could probably get Boban and try this

Instead of having 4 players lock arms around Steph so he can shoot you only need Wemby and 2 other players while the 4th guy can get the rebound

Shooting at the basket that is down relative to you is inexplicably hard.

We had some weird gym that had improvised stands right next to a court, so the distance was like a 28ish ft 3pt shot. And the height was so that you are just slightly above the rim from your shooting position

Your mindset is for the ball to go up and then down. But in this instance, yu basically need to just shoot it downwards. and it messes up your complete sense of shooting, it's like 3/4 are airballs.

Steph can fuck the sky from any height

Wemby is currently #329 in the league in defensive rating. Not sure what Pop was thinking, assigning him to guard Steph. Maybe someone could explain.

[–] CodeBlueLegacy@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Rewatch the replay. That was a switch.

And where did you get that stat from? Wemby been in top 3-20 in majority of defensive stats this year and has the 5th best odds at DPOY despite Spurs being smongbthe worst in league in team defense.

If by relocate you mean travel then yes

[–] YareSekiro@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Not his fault, he switched and the one who is supposed to cover Steph went for the steal.

[–] Emotional-Chef-7601@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Classic Steph

[–] mug3n@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Man, Steph's off ball movement is fucking elite.

[–] RealPrinceJay@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That’s on Vassell, not Wemby

Wemby actually does an excellent job here

[–] RainOnYourParade@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I love that you can actually hear people laughing when he decided to not lay it up.

[–] Redbullsnation@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Dude was just toying with him. That's nasty

[–] DontBanMe_IWasJoking@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

welcomed him to the league 20+ games in?

[–] Bored_In_The_USA@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Nothing personal, just personnel, kid

[–] four4beats@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That swish is so perfect.
