My Take
Okay, I'll just say it: Steph Curry changed how basketball is played, and I don't think that's hype. Before him, a thirty-foot pull-up was a bad shot you yelled at; after him, every kid in every driveway is launching from the logo. What I love is the contrast between the baby-faced, unassuming look and the absolutely ruthless gunslinger underneath. Two unanimous-feeling MVP runs, the 2016 vote that was literally unanimous, that long-awaited Finals MVP in 2022 to quiet the doubters, and the whole Golden State dynasty he built with that flick of the wrist. He's not the biggest or the most athletic guy on the floor, which somehow makes the wizardry even more fun. Pure joy to watch.
