Steph Curry - Superb Separation (Don't Switch)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Steph Curry was the most lethal offensive weapon in the entire league during the regular season. There’s a reason he’s the first unanimous Most Valuable Player. In addition, he’s a back-to-back MVP (first guard since Steve Nash), the scoring champion, and the only member of the 50-40-90 club to lead the league in scoring during the same year. He’s an advanced stats freak (Player efficiency rating (PER) of 31.5), an NBA champion, and a general waking nightmare for NBA defenses. This is a guy who is so dangerous that he even made two defenders run into each other (5:17). This video is about how he kills cross-matches, over aggressive defenders, and switching on the pick and roll.
The MVP already puts so much pressure on defenses, that you don’t need to make life difficult by cross-matching wrong, especially in transition. Cross-matching is the term for when you have to defend someone different from whoever is guarding you. The Warriors generate so many of their buckets in transition, or even the secondary break, so make sure you get as many people back behind the ball as you can. Once that’s done, get the best (most athletic and/or agile) defender to grab Steph. Don’t leave your big alone on Steph island, waiting for his ankle insurance to kick in.
After that, in the half court, there’s a lot of clever action the Warriors run to get in their spots, but Steph in a pick and roll is at the heart of most of it. The first option of defending Steph Curry receiving a ball screen is to blitz him high, and force him to give it up. The Cavs did this in the 2015 Finals, but making the Warriors play 4 on 3 with an elite decision maker like Draymond, already on the short roll, is not a recipe for success. That is not featured at all in this video, because that isn’t what this is about.
The second option should NEVER be explored: there will never ever be a time to go under a screen for Steph Curry. I don’t care if he can’t hit a shot, and is about to put in cryostatis, you should never go under that screen.
The next option is to show, but don’t switch. That’s when the big comes out to bump the ball handler, or at least disrupt the driving angle, as the guard fights over the screen to get back into position. That’s a pretty sound strategy, except Steph’s playmaking ability is world class, and his release is lighting quick, so he might be able to get his shot off before the big can even get out there.
Finally, if you do contain Steph, STAY DISCIPLINED. He is relentless with his movement, and as soon as he gives the ball, he might get it back right away. If you relax for even a second, a give-and-go or a backdoor cut will make you look foolish. The Warriors are a combined 140-24 in the last two regular seasons for a reason.
All clips are from this current (2015-2016) season. There will be a DON'T SWITCH playoff version when the Finals finish.

I don't understand how people hate on someone with so much talent! unbelievable.
They hate the unique.
People like following the crowd because they're so basic.
The funny thing is that he hardly has any talent. 6'3", 190 lbs, was rejected by the top NCAA colleges, yet he puts more work into his game than anyone. Hard work > talent.
hes talented yes. but also extremely selfish with the ball. huge ball hog, hes a great scorer but not a point guard
Yea , the boll hogging is getting more obvious and obvious. I believe he's just trying to be more flashy than useful. I really hope that he would show more cooperation and impact now that he has an elite all-around player in his team.
I’ve never been a sports fanatic. I have enjoyed figure skating now and then but never get excited beyond any other sports but Stephen Curry Has made me look at sports another way. For the first time in 30 years I am now a basketball fan.
His dribbles and shotting is the killer .. no one can stop him . .
Facts
2015-2016 Curry was one of the best offensive regular seasons ever
Jebuiz y'har hands down my fav season I’ve ever watched.. GSOAT!
Although curry didn't play his best in the playoffs, he is still the best shooter in history and can be argued for the best player in that last season.
+EveryDayIsAGoodDay The Rockets would not make the playoffs without James Harden either. How about PG13 and the Pacers? Does that mean They are better than Curry? I believe, though, that Bron is the best player in the league, but just not for the reason you brought up.
+EveryDayIsAGoodDay Lebron was better than curry in the playoffs, but not in the regular season
look on lebron little dumbass lost in the finals
he is good but not the best shooter in history
Being the best shooter don't mean shit..
It's crazy how at no level of basketball coaches are teaching players to take the kind of shots curry takes. Just speaks to his high skill level he's achieved.
The play from Stephen Curry is unquestionable.
He is just unbelievable! Just watch this video and it will be clear why so many people hate Steph Curry!
No it doesn't actually
just like kobe said, always love the hate ☝
Platen Wölfflin yeh , like "King" LeBron?
Man, I never get tired of watching Steph doing his thing! Im always in awe every time I watch him playy
Facts
People love to hate on greatness I'm a Knicks fan but I appreciate his talent
Daiton true i love how he uses his speed as an advantage and how he crosses over and hesitation on defensers
Daiton .
that is so true
Daiton that sounds about white
One pick away my friend. One pick away
It's crazy to me how people can even fathom that he isn't the best PG. Like dufuq you talking about? He is the greatest shooter in the history of the game.
because he's not the best overall point guard . he's the best shooter , that's it
he doesn't top anyone else in any category
kyrie - best finisher at the rim (probably top 3 all time) , best handles in the league (again probably also top 3 of all time)
john wall - insanely athletic , 2nd fastest player in the league,
russell - most athletic point guard in the league, fastest in the league , can make contested layups (which curry can't really do)
overall , i would think kyrie is the best point guard in the league . he played great defense in the finals which will only carry on into the regular 2017 season .
That's it? C'mon fam. He is the best shooter ever fool.
Curry also a great finisher you know. Westbrook can make inconsistent contested layups due to his lack of decision making which doesn't benefits the team. Although he has a good 3pt shooting and clutch Kyrie's finishes is due to his great handles and he got only 4.7 assist in the past season so not realy Lebron runs the cavs plays and defense
you need to have a concrete criteria on deciding the best PG in the league and doing the PG job is really important that includes passing, creating space etc.
+Conner Felty Did you really just say that Kyrie is a top 3 finishing point guard of alltime.
if you’re a real basketball fan you cannot hate this kind of talent. the mans is a beast and is the greatest shooter of all time
So much talent there is no such thing as a GOAT talent indeed
I'm not really a curry fan but I love the way he runs a pick and roll. As soon as the screen is set he runs to the side forcing the bigman to switch on to him or give up a wide open three. From that point he has a slow footed big on him and you can basically count it as three points
tl;dr, but i read ure not a curry fan. dumbass hater. BTw iverson is trash all he can do is handle the ball a tiny bit (curry does it better crossovers + stepback) and cant shoot LOL 42% From field LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
What the fuck
+Warriors Best Fan #STEPH CURRY, nigga shut your bandwagon ass up
JD The One And Only U shut the fuck up. Iverson is a bitch and trash and so is Carmelo he's gay and can't even shoot 3's
+Warriors Best Fan #STEPH CURRY My nigga, if I had a curry picture you wouldn't say shit, so STFU bandwagon
The shots at 5:55 and 9:21 are just bananas. The difficulty of shooting at those angles coupled simultaneously with moving towards his weak side are two of the most difficult shots for any shooter but Steph makes it look effortless. His footwork, handles and basketball IQ are impeccable as well. With his shooting range and accuracy you have to face guard Steph with multiple players at least 3/4 court the entire game.
Facts
many ppl can do these moves, but only steph can make that shot
Royan liu any good shooter can make those shots just not as consistently.
Steph is bottom of the net almost every time, it's beyond impressive
@@thedban1206 curry is way more than a shooter. U should know that by now.
@@pfft9479 my reply was praising Steph and also 3 years old
Curry's dribbling is more useful and efficient. He dribbles and crosses when necessary and to score in that moment. Players like harden and Kyrie do it to be fancy more so than necessary.
Kyrie and Harden play Iso
@@juststoic3809 curry doesn't he uses Iso to score kyrie and harden do it just to showoff
@@OfficialOddlyAppealing Curry runs pick and rolls lmaooo it's rare to see him run an iso
Stanley Livingstone no. Watch a superb separation video on either harden and kyrie. They use those moves as set up moves to shift defenders. Same as Curry in some of these clips. Curry use sometimes 2-3 moves to rock the defense then explode or get his shot off. There’s hard defenders in this league, those 3 guards depend on their handle to get to their spots. Not to show off
lol he makes those big boys looks like newbie on basketball
" That follow through is so beautiful, so effortless. "
Only Steph Curry can stop Steph Curry. Like in finals too bad.
only a partial meniscus tear can stop curry
true lol
***** curry hasn't been able to dunk still from what they say his knee is still messed up
He's still a champion.
he wasnt even injured lmfao dumbass fans. curry was playing like crazy in game 4 and when he came back from the injury against portland and dropped 40 dumbass bandwagoners. curry also brought a comeback against OKC and if he was rlly injured he would of lost the series dumbass bandwagons. Curry was destroyed by lebron, exposed by kyrie and embarassed by Kevin love. Curry choked and played trash and he'll never recover from this finals and 2015 finals
Steph Curry...he has earned every dime of his new contract. His ball handling is from another galaxy. I could watch highlights of him all day. Living here in the Bay Area...we get every single game on TV. I haven't missed a game in 3 years. Next year...they may go undefeated. lol
That first clip gets me Everytime. AND Curry can only get better.
change ur username 2 LeBum lebron is ugly trash
how is LeBron being ugly a big deal?
For people that say he can't finish at the rim. He had one of the
Highest shot percentages under 5 feet. Even better then about every center in the game.
Dude has it all. Iso, offball, screen plays, finishes, efficiency
Facts
The sad thing is that a lot of these guys played great defense on him. Nothing you can do about that dude.
Right.. title should be renamed to Alien Handles and Shots By Steph
Chris B. I guess. I only wish the rules allowed for a bit more contact. Would love to see steph shoot over defenses that were actually playing like they didn't have limitations.
@@korysingleton4869true agreed.
why does everyone hate Curry. People actually think Kyrie is better.
ppl love to hate on greatness in the moment. They hated LeBron when he was the best player (still is overall imo) but after Kobe, same thing with curry, not saying he isn't the best player right now but ppl love to hate in the moment of greatness. Now everyone wants to love LeBron again now that GSW are "villains".
How is curry the most explosive scorer since Jordan it definetly Kobe and AI
+Riko Man they forget about how much Iverson did for just one shot..now this guy was explosive
yes Iverson was amazing, I remember buying his shoes lol.
Iverson is way too nice
The quick release and his ability to create space between his defender makes all the difference.
5:26 gotta be the quickest release ever & best defense on him
5:25
This is just sick. Most of these shots are actually very well contested! What a shooter.
People tend to forget how this dude was deadly and unstoppable in iso plays
Many people can do these moves during practice or even against weaker competition. What’s amazing is he pulls off this stuff at the highest level. That’s how good he is.
The one game vs Portland in the playoffs when he came back from being injured and no playing time for the last couple of weeks and he went off
Curry handles under rated just bc how amazing a shooter he is
He makes it looks so easy. In that aspect, he reminds me of MJ
This guy is a machine 😵
How can people not love watching him
Those shots are such a high degree of difficulty. Steph is simply sublime. True Champion. Warriors will win this year. Watch
steph Curry est meilleur joueur de la NBA je kif grave big up
"Golden State leads the world in everything." xD
6:48 I love how Ibaka holds his defensive follow-through as if it will help the shot not go in, just like shooters hold their follow-through to help their shot go in hahahaa.
2:38 is when KD knew he was going to join the Warriors.
How can people hate on such good talent 🤦🏾♂️
The Historic Run by The Golden State Warriors really is Impressive, You can see how Steph changed the game!
KING OF STEP BACK!!!
Damn his shot is so pure. . .
Quick release, arc, rotation, plus his handle all on point. He's ust insane. . !
You know someone is really good at what they do when what they do makes you think you can do it too.
"Golden State, leads the world in everything"
CURRY IS THE MOST EXCITING PLAYER TO WATCH PLAYING !💪🏽👏😜
pause at 1:11 Deandre knows Steph can make shots from there, good defense.
Kareem has got the SKYHOOK!Hakeem the "Dream Shake"!Michael Jordan the fadeaway jumper!AI has got his deadly crossover!These are some patented shots and moves of some Superstars that will be remembered forever!And don't forget to include Steph's crossover and step back from the 3's!And this include his DEEP 3'S!!
When you realize that '16 curry had limitless range😨
he still does? lmao
he still does tho
@@13km66 what I said 😅
Wdym? He still does lol
Still does lmao
Bottom line is that Curry has brought a whole new element to the NBA than we have EVER seen before. Just borderline unbelievable.
This is the Steph that we're usd to.
I used to hate Curry so much because i was influenced by the bandwagons, but now i understand talent and greatness and i still don't LOVE Curry, but i don't hate him.Same with the GSW, but not with the GSW fans, most of them are bandwagons(Imagine that he was the 2nd most voted player to play in the frontcourt for the west all-stars. Just let that sink in).
I am watching this with Internet Explorer so this might take a while.. But congratulations for 100 Subs !
Gimme your ring
This video was posted 2 months ago when he had over a 100 subs.
I watch it with Dora the Explorer.
@@sftbnation8616 ahd
Wow
Dude is a force and a power that is not matched right now.
Man I'm more like Westbrook fan but watching this damn the kids it's good
Incredible! Best shooter to ever play the game 🔥🔥😲😲
I wish we get this man back
to b honest curry s 1 of d greatest player now...he just been proved 2015, 2017,2018...
Snake got crossed. Snake joined team.
Damn.
youre the best of the best Evin Gualberto!! thanks a lot for your work.. you make me love basketball even more
2:34 "I have to get on that guy's team"
4:02 "I have to get on that guy's team"
5:05 "I have to get on that guy's team"
I notice everytime a big man was guarding curry, he took advantage.
Its obvious he was injured during the finals
Too bad boohoo
+Epic Sauce You mad bro?
L
idk why people can't acknowledge that he was injured and the Cavs deserved it, it doesn't have to be one or the other.
He wasnt injured
1. He dropped 40. Bandwagoners keep making excuses on this but he fucking dropped 40 and said I'm back. This alone removes the excuse of injury.
2. He dropped 38 in g4. He did have one game performing well in the finals and that was game 4. If he did it in game 4, why not g7, 6 and 5? Because he was choking
3. He cameback against OKC and helped lead the comeback. He had big moments in the comeback and if he was really injured he would have lost against OKC.
4. In some of the finals games you would see him playing around and doing stupid ass shit. Taking overly-contested 3's, missing wide-open shots, doing behind the back passes and getting turnovers, over-dribbling and getting ripped. Tell me, does injury have anything to do with this shit? No, he got exposed and destroyed.
Steph curry the truth can't nobody else do what he do in the NBA if they could they would have the rings like he got and 2 MVP's!
This "separation" just work for him and nobody else
ir is just so.... it is like.... he is... where are the words to describe that? Im 41 ... can someone compare this guy with any other shooter in history? Players thah change the game are not common.. This is the best i've seen so far. I can't beleive he can make those shots heavely guarded and without screen. Glad to be witness.
"All he does is shoot 3's. He can't even finish in the paint." They say
0-10 from 3 point...
Askar Turebekov shut up. It's the beginning of the season with a bad night. What? U expect him to be perfect. U can't even make 10 straight 3's.
EC Dude... He knows that 3's aren't going but he is doing it again and again... Missing all of 0-10.
Askar Turebekov because he's trying to get at least one in and when he gets at least one, that starts to give him motivation that he'll get the next one. And he wasn't just shooting 3's all night, it's a 48 min game. There were plenty of times he was driving or shooting from the paint.
EC He is damagin his team being selfish... #StatPadder!
I really appreciate your description evaluation of stephs game
This kid is way better than Kobe in shooting. KB made those difficult shots with much lower %.
Curry is more efficient. But kobe can shoot over the whole damn team
+Slightly Biased Kobe Bryant Fan only cuz your a Kobe fan
Kobe Bryant shot with like 5 people draped all over him hands in his face with an awkward shot and he would still hit it. Curry makes deep 3's and occasional 1v1 contested deep 3's which everyone orgasms over.
Kobe also shot 38% from 3 for his beast season in his entire career taking only 4 3's a game that season... His career average was 33% from the 3 point line. Steph has never come close to dipping even below 40% from 3 in a season. Also, Kobe's clutch percentage (FG% in the last couple minutes) is pretty abysmally low over the past decade- go look up some stat metrics before you come here pulling out anecdotal bullshit.
cmunballer777 KB fanboys will never check that. They are simply don't believe the truth.
Can't hate on greatness, the man is 30 years old and broke a record then came back the next year and broke his own record not to mention winning mvp back to back
Unfortunately in the playoffs and finals he was banged up enough that getting his usual separation proved difficult. He didn't take it into the pain breaking the d nearly as much and wasn't getting as much space for clean look off the bounce. It really hindered his team.
Hmm
Stephen curry is one of the best shooter in history. He cant be stopped
i think he's NBA's lionel messi
yes but Messi is GOAT and Curry is only GOAT shooter not GOAT player yet.
@@nickaglyc True, but he gets the job done
2x MVP and he's not GOAT player ?! OMG what are you talking about ? ^^
I think CR7 has something to say about that
Yeah! Superb in Making Space for His Shots and Shoot so accurate!
why people like curry then hate him. and with lebron is the same but simultaneously
cause people overreact saying he's the best player of all time already like chill he only had 2 good years rn, he has more to come
Lmao not really, i rarely see someone say curry is the best of all time, its like 90% people hating on curry... Thinks its just a case of people hating on greatness in the moment
if anybody ever says lebron is better then Kobe is smoking dick and should be schooled on basketball
kobe better than lebron. lebron did not lead his team to the finals the team led the team to the finals. im not saying he is trash im just saying hes overrated
Every Major and Secondary Stat proves Lebron is superrior to Kobe
Steph Curry. The best thing to hit the NBA since Duncan and Kobe/ MJ/ Bird and Magic/Kareem
Can you do one for jeremy lin please? he had a really underrated season with the hornets
your a weeaboo and Noone likes Jeremy lin anymore he's trash
:( but but brooklin
If only he stayed with the Knicks , he was a great leader. He's just not as comfortable as he is with the new teammates that he has.
He doesn't even need a a lot of separation with his quick release shot.
This new officiating makes every player so scared to touch him, it's sad. Even watching highlights from the 2010 season is like night and day on the physicality of the game
Disagree. Quit hating the kid is just nasty
+407Movement He's right though?
Go look at the 90s Jordan got so many phantom calls it's disgusting.
that's because the 90's were the era of the big man its natural to be more physical under the hoop
Lol what are you talking about? He gets grabbed every single play in this video. Every time he changes pace or crosses over they touch him. Every time he's off the ball he gets held. It's not super physical defense but they're still fouling him.
This man shoots like GOD!
i love curry
that's my idol
His iso game is strong
His passing game is strong
His shooting game is strong
and somehow the hate he gets for no apparent reason is stronger *sigh*
Fr
It's so obvious he wasn't 100 percent in the finals when you watch regular season footage of Curry. His ball handling wasn't there let alone his movement. Warriors got lucky last year and the Cavs got lucky this year. Anyone who tries to argue otherwise is just biased.
He and Warriors said he was okay. No one plays at 100%. Especially in the playoffs. Stop making excuses. It's like saying Cavs would of won last year if Irving and Love were healthy. It's not luck either year. PATHETIC.
Yes, Cavs definitely could've won last year if they didn't suffer 2 of the big 3 getting injured. It may sound like an excuse but it's a valid one. Losing Love and Irving last year definitely gave the Warriors an advantage. Curry getting injured earlier in the playoffs, plus Green suspension, plus Bogut injury and Iguodala clearly having back problems gave Cavs an advantage. As for him and the warriors saying "He was okay." What would they do just advertise it and say, "Yeah, Steph is not at 100%. His knee is really bothering him." In no sport can you just show your weakness. My point is Curry was definitely not the same player in the finals or even the playoffs as he was in the regular season. He was extremely inconsistent. Blew up in that Portland game where he yelled, "I'm back" but then wasn't so hot during Oklahoma except for a couple of games. Why do you even think they were down 3-1 at one point? "PATHETIC?" Right...
GSW went down 3-1 to OKC because OKC was killing them. Excuuusesssss yall got murked by king james and uncle drew and provided the biggest flop in nba history. thanks gsw
If there's people hate Steph Curry, they are nothing.... Bcoz we love Steph so much... He is the best...
curry is the best basketball player in the world
Durant is better than him...
Yes He's.
Not really then Durant he's very good as well.
This just shows how special Curry is with the ball in his hands... Everytime the steve kerr & warriors have steph playing off of the ball theyre doing the other team a favour.
I don't won't any arguments but every player has bad games just like LeBron but you fans take it way to far curry is a friendly man and guys just hate on him
Caden Rice lol is KADEN HARRIS and you the same person? Lol y’all look just the same, and similar names
he was honestly unstoppable pre-injury
Would you say he regressed now? The numbers seem comparable
@@michaelscofield1771hm
That Kawhi one is fucking crazy!!
He’s special. Only player I look forward to watching, just like I did for Jordan
He need a big man to guard him
I can't tell if you're just trolling or genuinely don't understand the concept behind this video.
(dont switch) means curry gets the big man to guard him by switching out the other defender in transition, so by saying (dont switch) means u better not put the big guy on him lol.
Watch the video idiot.... Curry eats the big men's lunch... He thrives on being guarded by the biggest guys.... Usually no one can stop him, but if anyone has a chance to other than Lebron, it's Westbrook, Chris Paul, Damian Lillard, etc
but the really big guys stand no chance in guarding Curry....
Paul millsap
kawhi
He’s kind of slow but his tremendous footwork really sells his moves
he aint slow, only in comparison to other nba guards
Slow huh lol.
Kyrie is the best of the rest but he's not the best of the best. this young man right here is.
I love curry and his game is crazy. the man is a beast and the greatest shooter of all time. I just wish hed perform like this in the finals
He did it.
most of these arent great separation, just compensated by great shooting
And how do you think he made that great shot? With great separation.
We'll get h
lmao
You need great separation in order to even get a shot off.
lol reread what i said " these arent Great separation" most of these shots theres a hand in his face he just has an incredible shot,
Actually, even after all those fancy ball handling, most of them are barely any separation; he just makes a lot of super tough shots.
i love. . the big guys try soooooo fuckin hard to defend him and he owns them all x D. best player. ever. (offensively)
nope
blahblah blahblah in his opinion
not sure why there are so many SC haters. fact of the matter is, if oyu play ball, you know how fuckin hard it is to handle at his level, and then to shoot with his speed.
no one else has done it at this level before. not "opinion." straight, observable fact.
oopalonga MJ??😂
the first one had no separation 😂 he just nailed a crazy tough shot
it was a good clip tho
good vid overall
Who thinks Steph still isn't gonna get as many rings as Jordan tho. like if u agree
Alexander Vanderschans 👍👍👍
