There is something special about that curry


Whenever Steph Curry steps out onto the court you can’t but think one-word Greatness! On Tuesday he won the MVP award for the 2nd year in a row. However, he made history, becoming the first unanimous winner in the NBA. He is the 11th player to win back to back MVP awards, joining a star studded list of players such as Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Lebron James and many more. His award speaks out of his overall high consistency and quality. This season wasn’t just special for Curry, but also for his team the Golden State warriors who made history by beating Michael Jordan’s Chicago bulls record of 72 victories by winning 73 games. The numbers don’t lie Curry is exceptional. It’s not just the fact that he can pretty much shoot from any angle or anywhere on the court (Half-Court shot against Utah Jazz) for me it’s his impressive ball handling skills. I love the way his coach Steve Kerr has built this team, it’s a great unit. The warriors can kill you with their 3-point shooting, especially when Curry’s splash brother Klay Thompson is in Rhythm. The two seem to just mop the floor against most teams and then there is Draymond Green who for me is one of the most underrated players in the league who is slowly getting the recognition he deserves.

If you’re not a believer in what I’m saying just let the numbers do the talking.
