[NBA x Thinking Basketball] The Day Steph Changed the Rules
The statement game and coming out party for the Warriors and Steph will always be the February 6, 2015 against the number one seed Hawks. One of the highest combined scores for the time, it was an all out assault at the three point line and signaled to me that the game had materially changed.
I would say the OKC game in 2016. I feel like after they won in 2015, people still put asterisk on them, injuries, flukey, etc. After Stephs game winner it was more like three point shooting can be as dominant as traditional post play.
I love these deep dives. Cant wait to check it out.
