Steph Curry - Alien

Great article on Steph Curry, my favorite non-Rocket .....

Take a look at the two charts below. If you want to understand the unique appeal of someone like Stephen Curry—a player on whom both the basketball romantics and the quants agree, a guy who represents a rare intersection of narrative and analytics—there is no better place to start.

The first chart, by Div Bhansali, shows every player in the past five years who's shot more than six threes a game, plotted against their three-point percentage. There's Ray Allen, at the top of the cluster on percentage, and Ryan Anderson's last two seasons are near the cream of the group. And there, outside them all, way off in another cosmos, is Steph Curry.

All I saw was in the second chart, Asik and Howard were the closest to the basket. LOL.

3.5 threes MADE at 45% for 78 games. over 2 threes made per season with at least 43%.

whoever leaves him open for 3 should be hanged by the balls, just above a lake full of hungry alligators so they're out of reach... as long as he stays hanging
