Dub Hub: Steph Curry thought the Celtics’ rout was similar to the Warriors’ previous supremacy

After the Warriors’ lopsided defeat, Stephen Curry said of the Celtics, “That’s what we used to do to teams.”

Curry reportedly told reporters, “They’re hitting 10 threes in the first quarter, that’s what we used to do to teams,” as seen in a CLNS Media video. It can be somewhat disheartening, particularly when traveling. They’re taking advantage of a shot that you feel comfortable giving up or whatever the situation may be.

In an attempt to make it up, Curry continued, “you feel like you have to play home run basketball on the other end.” And that’s when the momentum shifted, continuing to move in their favor. From there, it seemed like every play went in their favor, and the next thing you knew, you were down 40. Just one of those evenings, then.

The rationale for the Warriors’ compassionate approach to Wiggins’ absence

Yes, the Warriors are going into the last quarter of the current campaign. Indeed, they intend to make a comeback and climb the Western Conference rankings. Yes, they would gain from having their starting small forward, who is an excellent two-way player, play for around half of the game each time.

But the Warriors have emerged as one of the most alluring professional teams in American sports, and compassion is one of the qualities that accounts for this. In a world where billion-dollar companies feel free to treat their employees like flies, they go out of their way to show humanity to their most important public figures.

Brown refers to the Warriors’ strategy for him as “a little disrespectful.”

It’s the first time I’ve ever experienced it. After Boston defeated us 140–88, Brown told reporters, “To be honest, I was a little surprised. There was some modifying to do, but all in all, I believe we just made the most out of that attempt.

“My main responsibility is to reach the paint. We have a sufficient number of 3-point shooters on our squad, so I try not to take many 3-pointers during the season. When I finally get around to painting, I usually let everyone else use it.

However, we can also shoot if you challenge me to do so. It seemed a little rude to me. However, we seized the opportunity and didn’t turn around.

Curry and the other guards for Golden State were in charge of setting the off-ball screens. Several times, as two defenders pursued the greatest shooter in the world, Curry, his teammate, would screen him and go wide open for a layup near the rim. Level of cheat code 𝔠𝔯𝔞𝔭.

Oklahoma City, the second-youngest franchise in the league, isn’t quite there yet. Even still, the other teams in the league should find the similarities scary. The Thunder outshoot every other club in three-point shooting percentage (39.6%). And according to ESPN’s Stats & Info, they recently overtook the 73-win 2015–16 Warriors, who had held the greatest mark in the shot-tracking era, with a 56.7% effective field goal rate on jumpers. They are the most efficient team in the NBA when they run pick-and-roll sets, but they rarely do so, much like Golden State. Rather, much like the Dubs, they delegate the grunt job to their guards.
