The way he said "Curry was only 6ft2 and 160 pounds" 😭😭
He's still taller and stronger than most teens
His height is actually not bad for an average NBA guard, it is really his wingspan that held him back on dunking and defense. When he came into the league, his strength might be underrated due to his face.
I was actually thinking that. I am tall as a woman - I am about 176cm and he would be towering over 😭😭
I'm 5'6" feelsbadman
160 lbs is really light tho

Steph will always be remembered for his shooting. He is my favorite player right now. He is the GOAT of shooting
steph, allan houston, ray allen , natural born shooters....
agree
No one dare say that he is not the goat of shooting. I understand if u say that he is not the goat of basketball but he is a goat when it comes to shooting and nobody can argue about that
@@abdulaziz8820 he’s definitely Top 5
@@abdulaziz8820 I personally think he’s the GOAT
He's an inspiration. He makes memes of himself, he shatters records, he's very influential. Look at curry man
So Inspirational

look at curry man, so inspirational, the man who revolutionized basketball
The 3 pointer is not the same thanks to him. He mastered the shot
Greg Popovich Revolutionized Basketball not Steph Curry lmao all the teams do Spurs Basketball these days not Curry Basketball. Rules have been made up and changed because of Popovich not Curry. Currys a great player, he's inspirational even, but he didn't revolutionize basketball lol.
@@AngryDeluxe another curry hater
@@AngryDeluxe true but he made teams shoot more threes to keep up with them
@@AngryDeluxe all you have to do is look at total three point attempts in the NBA before currys first ring and after. Then tell me curry didnt do that.
It’s always so heartwarming to listen to stories about Stephen Curry…. I swear, I love him!!!
😂
O
Watch out for his wife...
Watch out for his wife...
In 2k, he was unstoppable. He got 73 points in a game and defeated Klay’s record for highest three pointers in a game in 5min quarter. He also averaged 20 points in 5min after coming out of a funk. He’s so gifted and has a lot of respect.
bro I scored a 300+ point game with Steph, his step back is godly
u say it like he actually did it in real life this mildly triggers me
@@screen_bbx6641 ikr
Steph is too inspirational man. He wasn't the most dominant instead he was one of the most unguardable player of all time. Edit 1: We got 100 likes. So I guess my arguments with my friends on what I said actually paid off.
Curry was dominant offensively
@@l1ll4rd48 I know but he was pretty much unguardable or real hard to guard as you have to start guarding him once he passes half court which is really tiring and tough as if he gets a single screen off he gets loose and shoots his shot which he is unguardable when he releases that ball.
@@goat_capalot7456Athletes are built to start guarding at half, they have the stamina and they definitely don’t start guarding them there, have you watched a Steph game? It’s a lot more complicated than that and curry is definitely guard-able, Mathew Delladova locked him up in the 2016 finals. But let’s assume Curry is completely unguardable, even if he’s the best scorer in HISTORY, you still can’t be top ten, you need defence it’s 50% of the game! To put it simply. Steph is top ten in OFFENCE and not even top 100 in DEFENCE, so how can he be top ten overall?
@@l1ll4rd48 Man I never said he was top 10 or anything like that. If you were reading what I said I said he pretty much is unguardable since he can shoot from anywhere as so is he top 10? Depends on opinions and how much he made an impact on the NBA. I know defense is big as in real life I am a defensive player but to see it as Steph didn't change the game or isn't top 10 is crazy but I still will respect your opinion if you think steph isn't top 10.
@@goat_capalot7456 I take a more skill based approach rather than game changing
Steph is my favorite player because not only have I never seen a shooter like him, but he was underestimated and proved the league wrong and changed the game.
If the Bucks trade actually included Steph and we had a team with Steph + Giannis, it would be one of the scariest teams in the NBA not just because of their talent, but more importantly because of the mental toughness displayed by these two stars. Steph and Giannis were both underdogs who have an insane work ethic. Both are extremely humble, and Steph is probably one of the best teammates in NBA history. In addition, I believe their skills would complement each other really well. With Steph's shooting prowess paired with Giannis' drives to the basket, the Bucks would be unstoppable.
Curry wouldn’t have as much rings
@@cracked3563 He would. Ginannis became MVP in 18-19....that is 3 yrs ago..I can see Giannis+ Steph winning each of the last 4 Rings..EASILY
The thing is, golden state and steve kerr helped curry immensely by allowing him to achieve his full potential. I dont think any other team would have let curry shoot all those threes and all
@@arundivakaruni9299 bro they let giannis shot 3s lmao. Get outta here he was who he was before kerr.
Agreed. Giannis grinding the inside and steph shaving the outside. With a good bench that pair as a spearhead, that team will be unstoppable
Steph would always be a fan favorite the fans love him, the players can't even hate him, his humble, never says I always say we, shares the spotlight with his team, great family man, and look at curry man so inspirational
he got a lotta haters too, not that much,
but there are still a large amount of people that hate on him,
mainly because curry destroyed their favorite team.
@@CJ_Tha_Mofo true
@@CJ_Tha_Mofo he said the players cant hate him
He rlly is an inspiration for the scrawny guys who don think they have a chance being that good
There’s Allen Iverson, Chris Paul, Muggsy Bogues and you choose Steph as an inspiration for scrawny guys despite being 6’3
Yea, If you're 6 inches taller than the average male in the US, you too can work hard and be successful in the NBA. I joke, he seems like a good dude and is the best pure shooter ever.
@@l1ll4rd48 AI isn’t scrawny
@@l1ll4rd48 The reason why he chose Steph because he is a bigger inspiration to this upcoming generation of kids. He will be their inspiration. I’m confused on how you don’t know that already.
@@hopsmax2827 I’m confused on how you didn’t understand me, A.I is more scrawny than A.I, yet kids with call someone with more muscle on a better team 5 INCHES TALLER, that he is the inspiration. Just pisses me off, blatant disrespect to players who had to go through way more than Steph ever did.
In all the years we have never seen a player like Steph. Enjoy him while it lasts. I mean nobody in the world is this damn good of a shooter. Ever.
I can honestly say Steph Curry is my favorite player of this generation. Not being highly recruited and all those injuries. Dude is a GOAT 🐐💯💪🔥
hes not a goat. one finals mvp. stop it!
@@brentw0681 Yeah MJ is the 🐐
I didn't say THE GOAT 😂😂😂
@@randomyoutuber7898 Don't worry man 😆 Curry is my favorite player of this generation too so it's only right to put some respect on his name 🏆😎🤙🏾
@@brentw0681 all you’re comments on this page are about lebron. Hop off his sack lol. You’re delusional if you think lebron is better than curry
Steph is a game changer he has dominated the game for his team and brought his team to where it is today he is a one man wrecking machine
He is the reason why I play basketball. Look at curry man so inspirational
How a 3 star recruit became a NBA Legend,simple the player was upgrading his attributes after each game and thats how he became an overall 99
It's pretty damn scary how a player can shoot from anywhere on the court while basically ignoring the existence of opposing defenders. Scientific studies need to be conducted on Curry, for real... 🎯
The best shooter currently. Maybe his son will eventually be another sensation but those are some big shoes to fill
The best shooter currently. Maybe his son will eventually be another sensation but those are some big shoes to fill
@@tercial Honestly, if I was his son, I'd play literally any other sport hahaha, ain't no way I'd wanna deal with that kind of pressure 😅
@@tercial the best shooter ever boy. It’s not even close, no one can reach Steph, he’s in a different world.
@@prabsharankaknia8479 Yeah, that's true 👌🏻
The answer is simple. He didn't conform to the standards of the era, choosing to perfect his shooting, thus allowing him to shoot from any range, providing him a niche skill that had long since been held in regard to 3-ball shooters like Ray Allen, Dale Ellis, Peja Stojakovic, Reggie Miller, etc., without the size advantage of a Dirk Nowitzki or a Kevin Durant. And unlike most of the other players, he's a point guard, who handles that ball like Steve Nash, but took way more shots than Nash, who tend to pass the ball instead. As such, Steph made a name for himself because he made plays by not attacking the rim, but by becoming so accurate from everywhere. Then, once you had to commit to defending him from afar, did he make you miss by driving past you and putting up a drop shot. Simply, he adapted and made defenders look silly for giving him space.
RIP TO ALL OF THE LEGENDS WE LOST MAY YOU ALL REST IN PEACE 🕊️🏀😭🐐🏀🐐
Is he dead or sth. Edit: He is not. What are you on man
Steph and Giannis on the same team?
Bucks Doctor: hell nah 😂
Curry is already in the top five and he's on my Mt. Rushmore and in my top 3 greatest players of all-time. Dude change basketball in every era of basketball from male to female to men to child. I'm not a warrior's fan, I'm love jimmy butler and D. Rose. But I give credit where credit is due. Respect he's greatness
Johnny Flynn catching strays LMAO
that game 4 nba finals 43 pts performance was best thing i ever watched, thank god i was able to see that
Damn! That 2016 Steph was really something, too bad that choke job happened.. but damn, scoring leader with 50/40/90 splits... that's effin rare
What’s Stephen without that 3pt shot
@@Anna-lf1jv lol he attack the paint too. He is not explosive but creative at the rim
When the size is the only matter, this man overcame this one matter and became a legend.
0:56 Steph and Dražen Petrović...impossible is nothing...few of the greatest
Thank you, Steph and friends. The journey is the goal.
Great job with this video. Great summary! Your ability to put together many years of Curry’s life in 15:19 minutes is commendable , praiseworthy! Congratulations!
The videos of Curry playing in the chick fil a classic were taken at my old high school(Richland Northeast). As a kid, me and my brother would go to the games. It's crazy to think that we most likely witnessed the greatest shooter God ever created and we didn't even know it.
Great doc, that 400+ 3-point season was the most fun i ever had watching basketball.
I remember seeing the warriors fan base and NBA analysts imploding when the warriors picked Steph. "Worse pick of the century" was stuff you'd hear them say. Actually it got worse when the warriors kept curry instead of training him. All I remember from that era is a tweet by Steph saying "we'll make this work. I promise"
Years later, the scrawny kid from Davidson who according to analysts should have been a 2nd rnd pick as a role player became the greatest shooter, greatest gravity, part of the greatest backcourt duo ever, part of the best team ever, part of the greatest team ever, led a dynasty, had the greatest efficient season ever, and now a top 7 player all time and SO CLOSE to becoming the greatest PG ever (he's statistically the most skilled)
Mark Jackson doesn't get the respect he deserves for turning the team around
HEY! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF Some days are more difficult than others. If today is one of them, remind yourself to just breathe. You can pick up your fight again tomorrow.🤞🏽❤️🔥

Booooooooooooooot
Pls stop
Showing up in the comments
He became a legend because the same media that makes those high school rankings and decides who are the McDonald's all Americans were the same people who gave Iguodala the MVP for the finals even though Iggy was being paid $2 million dollars more than the man who averaged 10 points more than him and the same amount of rebounds and more assist than him and registered the most miles ran in the 2015 NBA playoffs. The fact is he was never three star he was always five star
Hw was a 3 star he went to Davidson
@@warriorsfansince2004 know what you mean is the people who vote for things like McDonald's All-American and finals MVP told you he was a three-star but he was the best player in college basketball every year he played and if not where are all the bums who you all said were better than him today? 😂
@@ast.george3565 I never said he wasn't but in high school he was a 3 star recruit
I saw a photo of Steph year 1 vs 2022 Steph and he has put on some serious muscle mass.
If I had a choose a best 5 of all-time with 1 player from each position it would have to be Steph over Magic, of course by slimmest of margins.
Curry come in a long way and deserve all the things he got along the way
The ridiculous thing about the 1 spot is. Most "scouts" will call a 6"2 guard under sized and a 6"4 guard oversized.
6.2 is very high🙂.. I m 5.4
Great job on this video. Really nice use of relevant video and still images, timed perfectly with the concise commentary. Your producer(s) and editor(s) deserve a round of applause. Quality!!
Can y'all imagine if Curry didn't sit out 17 4th quarters in that season.
Bruh prolly be too 2 or 3 in point for a season
Would have gotten injured
Imagine if Steph never experienced ankle issues in his rookie and prime years. He would’ve been so much more successful.
Only problem is they would have never gotten klay and draymond, well maybe draymond still but they would have been .500 or better and might have been looking in other areas. What happened was the best for his career I think
3:16 Behind only the guy he would carry to his only NBA success.. but somehow gets ranked as a better player?
Steph>KD
Every time you call Kevin Durant elite just remember what his success was without Steph.. Nothing.
Steph, you the real MVP
Damn, now this is a great video. Most just repeat the usual same old same old, but this had everything without dragging anything out.
2.6 million views just proves he’s underrated
Yes he's top 10, even top 7 rn but when he gets his 5th ring he'll be top 5. This man is my height and became legendary. Inspirational.
Keep chasing your dreams y'all.
He has 1 finals mvp …… and his all times stats are terrible ….. top 15 is more
Than fair . He isn’t getting special credit for rings when more than half of them he wasent even the best player
@@clampsgaming439 what are you on curry has the 3 point leader 8 Allstar games 2 mvp one being unanimous 1 Allstars mvp 1 finals mvp should be 2 ESPN said he's top 10 they said he's 8th after bird shaq said he's 6th bill said he's 9th Hakeem said he's 10th luka said he's 5th he's tied for best point guard and currys better than kd curry would still have 4 rings without kd kd hasn't won a ring without curry and curry has mj said currys top ten lebron said he's top ten your dick riding kd because your saying he's better all-time
@@clampsgaming439 tell me your top 15 then because last year curry was 12th and this year he broke the 3 point record moving him to 10th then he won a ring moving to 9th and fmvp to 9th

Steph is what every franchise wants, an underdog who overcame adversities.
Curry is the PERFECT definition of

He’s insane bro
Man I've loved curry since watching him in college. And his rookie year I knew he was going to be a beast. It all makes sense now
Very informative, I greatly appreciate you Bro!
Nonstop sports love ur vids keepmup the work and curry so inspirational
The doctors saved one of the best dynasties in the NBA, I can't imagine Curry outside of the Golden State Warriors.
I remember watching some of his games on tv when he played at Davidson and thought he would be pretty good in the NBA but I didn't think he would actually become the greatest shooter of all time and change the game.
my favorite player was ray allen until 2014 when i decided to support my hometown team gsw. it was awesome watching everything unfold
"The Man who revolutionized the Game of Basketball"
Stephen Curry is a LEGEND❤
Even though the warriors lost the finals against Caviars after being up 3-1, I do feel they still didn’t need kd
Good genetics, good discipline, tenacity and the dedication to practice, practice, practice
How is Steph Curry’s story not the greatest basketball story ever!?
Lebron
@@footballroxx24 on the surface, it seems like it because of the hardships
Giannis
good overall career scan but you missed what IMHO are the three key "background" supports for his meteoric rise: a fierce, cross training regimen that developed insane hand-eye skills, dribbling excellence, and unreal cardio endurance, superb nutrition program to build that frame up with solid weights, and insane devotion to improving his game in every detail. just ask some of the sportsguys and folks around Oracle from those years 2-5==he built himself a powerhouse, sleek frame to carry him to greatness.

@@joezxc hell nah... his shooting efficiency doesn't even come close to curry's..
@@joezxc if trae even comes close to what curry has done i'll be shocked. doubt he'll even be a top 75 player all time frankly.
Although LeBron has the best stats, I just can't help but feel that Steph is the more superior basketball player. It's not just about the play after all, Steph is the best possible teammate, humble, loyal, selfless and most importantly a great leader who can lead his team to greatness. He doesn't need to keep switching teams to win chips, he will fight with his current team, and no matter how hard it is, he perseveres. No moaning or bitching about them holding him back. Just straight up hardwork and that insane determination. I still remember his eyes on court last year when GSW got eliminated. You could have literally seen his insane will in those eyes. And the guy did it. Despite all odds, GSW won the entire championship. So much respect for this guy!
You think steph wins multiple titles with those first run lebron cavs?
Great coverage guys!! I'm a Lakers fan, but love GS and Curry
"He wasn't the greatest shooter of all time he is the greatest shooter of all time"
3:10 Grandpa guarding Curry 💀💀💀
3:14 the 2019 finals were never tied at 2 a piece. The warriors were down 3-1, KD hadnt played a single game, KD comes back for one quarter in game 5 but gets injured again after scoring 9 points
Everybody gotta get their numbers right. This mistake happened at 13:14, not 3:14
“Curry was only 6’2” just makes me feel depressed
Why? 😂
Steph has been my favorite player since kobe tore his achilles but I been watching him since 08 at Davidson I knew then he would be special but dawg I never expected him to be this amazing.
I swear you could make a one hour video of Steph Curry just shooting because he’s that good.
Everything happened exactly how it needed to happen.
Bro imagine Curry was with the bucks and he developed with Giannis and Khris😭😭 the NBA would be fucked
He’s good since he works puts in twice the work and he has a strong passion for basketball.
4:42 are we not gon talk about that 🤣🤣
Steph curry proved his 10 player of time
Look at curry man, so inspirational
bro if I see one more "look at curry man" .
Look at curry man
"6'6 athletic forward" shows Fred VanVleet
I believe the timberwolves didn’t draft him because he wasn’t that good of a playmaker yet which at this time, chris pauls and rondos were vauled more than scoring pgs
If he keeps it up he has a chance to become a top 30 player all time for sure
hes alr top 15 bro
I love curry and I have been watching him play since 2010 and that's when he joined the nba
Growing up he had a professional at his disposal (his dad), to train/teach him the game, along with near unlimited outside training resources due to his dad’s profession. With all of that, Stephen already has a leg-up. You combine that with a genetic component and the will to play, then the only question is when, not if.
Then why did Jordans's sons never make the nba?
@@hansennoah1 i dont know, maybe they didn’t want it as bad? You pose a good question. Jordan’s sons may just be an anomaly. I’d be interested to know how many pros have kids who go on to be pros themselves, percentage-wise.
@@marlonfowler also you should take a look at zaire wade (D Wade's son) he is out of the g league in a very short amount of time

Curry is definitely a top 10 all-time great. Personally on my list I put Bill Russell down to #11, Curry to #9 and move Larry Bird to #10. I'd love to see Steph get that 5th championship, it would put him on that next tier of GOATs above Shaq and amongst Magic, Duncan and Kobe. I think it's important to get that 5th championship for best PG of all-time debates with Magic. With one more championship (and the Finals MVP would help a lot) I think Curry has a legit case to be over Magic or at the very least on his level. Such an amazing talent who's transformed the game in ways not many have. Can't wait to see what he does over the rest of his NBA career. I truly hope he wins another championship or two, I'm not a Warriors fan but I wish him and the Warriors all the best. I really like teams like these Warriors that draft their players and develop them and keep them together. They remind me of the Spurs a lot with Duncan, Manu and Parker in that regard and I think that's part of why I'm a huge fan of what they're doing.
Steph is a GREAT PLAYER n a GOOD MAN 2
Great video! Subbed!
Just Imagine curry and Giannis
