So lucky we still get to see Steph play at this level
Lebron’s insane longevity basically makes everyone forget about Steph’s and KD’s longevity. Both of them lowkey have some of the best longevity considering the injuries they had to face.
It’s actually so unfair for them because Steph and KD are fucking 38 lmao. LeBron was getting insane praise for his performance at that age and Steph and KD are not seeing nearly as much.
at 38, stephen curry has played about half of the total minutes lebron has played throughout his career. including playoff minutes. Kd and Curry are 2 and 3 when it comes to longevity, its just that #1 is so.. so… far away..
not to take away from Lebron but small guards are usually past cooked by this age. same for CP3, he was still pretty damn good in his last year or two, like him or not.
That’s partly because he sat most 4th quarters for about 3 years in a row tho… because he put them up by so much.
He also went to college…
I get u but i think stephs gotten a lot of praise already this season? like this threads one of em
Bruh, Curry the talk not Bron lol.
Media pushes Bron yes, but in the streets its Curry. We all know it.
Lets not forget Ancient Al Horford as well lol
Mike Conley, Jeff Green, Deandre Jordan
jrue holiday still ballin too
so glad my favorite Gator is still around.
Uncle Al is such a legend
And CP3 (retired I know, but I was thinking that all last year)
CP3 was averaging 9 ppg at Steph’s age
Every age Curry hits is better than Bron at the age hes hitting, C’mon now…
And Steph and Kd are 1A still! LeBron is a role player with Media Hype
This is why we watch basketball.
I watch basketball because of Curry and Jokic. These are the Michael and Magic from my youth.
Jokic is like poetry in motion. Curry is just magical when he goes off.
When I think of Nikola Jokic, I think of Beethoven and the age of the Romantics. This guy has got it all.
I watch basketball because seeing giants interact with humans is very funny in postgame interviews and the such. It’s like the zoo but better.
Honestly I rooted against him so long because he was so mean to my large adult sons Blake, Chris, and DeAndre, but now that the Clippers are irrelevant it’s a relief to get to sit back and finally enjoy what he does.
I was so happy for all American basketball fans when Curry worked his magic in the Olympics. It gave them a brief glimpse of what it has been like to be a Warriors fan over the past decade and celebrate Currys heroics rather than suffer the heart break of being on the wrong end of his impossible feats.
The best show in basketball and maybe all of sports in my lifetime when he is on.
appreciate him while he’s still here folks!!
Delicious, grass-fed ethical hoops
On the flip side,
It sucks knowing Curry still has some incredible moments left in him but he’s gonna spend the rest of his career on one of the worst teams in the League.
I mean I’m sure the 2017 version of me was wishing this upon everyone on the Warriors but it actually sucks to see when you’re just a fan of the game in general.
Absolutely disgusting
Slovenia just removed Curry from 2K.
How does one say “The devil Curry is hurting us” in Slovenian
Hudič Curry nas uničuje.
I choose to believe you
Curry attempting to cash Yaxel’s cheque lmao
Draymond teaching him how to backpack real quick
This is genuinely one of Steph’s best highlights ever, at age 38
Edit: Lmao for everyone complaining, I know Steph has a crazy highlight reel, I’m just hyped about this one
He had a similar play against Chris Paul who is a much better defender.
Yeah but it’s funnier when bigger guys fall.
At age 38?
If I’m thinking of the time you’re talking about, I believe he stepped on Paul’s foot that caused him to trip. This one, he just straight up made Luka trip over himself.
Paul stepped on his foot I thought. Even if that’s what caused him to fall (understandable) Steph’s step back was still what got him.
Was a push off, and Luka tripped on Steph’s foot.
And Rudy Gobert was DPOY (or in between DPOY’s) when he famously broke his ankles and brain, throwing him into that spin that became a meme gif. That was the best I’ve seen.
HELP ME There once was a video that was this and someone overlaid the Kevin Hart bit while he’s floundering, but I swear Paul’s camp scrubbed it from the internet and I never saved it
He was much quicker and more athletic back then.
Chris Paul?!?! A,defender hahahahaaha wow
There’s an hour of Steph’s highlight out here, this will be like top 25 at most lol
bro has an hour of highlights for only deep 3’s
making luka taste the ground is definitely top 25
Disrespectful to Steph come on now
How? This is fucking nasty
No it’s not. Anytime you cross a guy over and he falls down it’s a highlight. Not to mention it’s against a top-5 player.
Think him breaking Chris Paul was better than this
lmao what?
This was huge also because of the context of Luka clowning on our rook. Like big bro says dont worry Yax, i got you!
He’s just dribbling and Luka trips lol are you serious?
Because the other guy fell down?
Hardly. Luka tripped in his own feet. Steph didn’t do anything special to put Luka on the floor. He (Steph) was moving in one direction and got lucky that Luka tripped himself up.
Y’all are idiots and sycophants for thinking Steph did anything special here
The first time in years Luka actually tries on defense and this happens to him, for the rest of the season he’s gonna make James Harden look like prime-Ben Wallace
“The lesson is: Never Try”
Shams Charania: Breaking. Luka Doncic to miss at least 6–8 weeks with broken Lateral malleolus (outside ankle)
Curry laid Luka down to sleep 🙏😴
and got luka to taste the ground
He’s the best at what he does and what he does is kind of nice.
That is a disgusting act by Steph Curry
Did he not just like trip lol
Yeah he tripped over himself trying to defend Steph, it’s the whole point of the highlight.
Looks like he tripped over his own foot….. which can tend to happen to one when trying to defend someone that’s working you.
I mean I guess? Steph didn’t really do anything crazy lol Luka just has slow feet and tripped over himself
That’s what happens when you can’t move your feet fast enough
Yep Luka stepped on his own foot
Did Luka drop someone or
Nah he hit a Stepback three
It was Luka against Payton. Nobody cares dude
Wow don’t diss Gary Payton II on defense
GPII is awesome but Luka would have had t9 score on Steph to make it matter
Stuck his foot right next to Lukas and trapped him.
bro tripped over his own foot
“doncic touches earth” is NASTY. all time call
Grady one of the best
I don’t think I’d ever heard him call a game, but this duo was fun! It was cool to have commentators just so thoroughly enjoy the game they’re calling.
We’ve been so blessed as wolves fans to have him on the call for years. Grady is one of the real ones. Harlan, Eagle, Grady. They’re elite.
I miss Grady so much. Awesome for him to ascend to this level though, well deserved
Wolves league pass with Grady, Ant, and Kat! Shoutout Naz Reid!
I mean as a basketball fan, especially one with a front row seat courtside, this is what you live for. Can’t even imagine how hyped I’d be if I were them. Glad they let it show too.
I can search this but too lazy. Is he the one that came up with LeBronto? Sounds like him if it’s not.
CURRRAYYYYYY!! INSANE!
This will finally humble him.
People got hate blinders on for Luka. This was an obvious offensive foul, Curry pushed-off
Cope harder Luka got absolutely owned in 4k
You would’ve got me, if only I didn’t have eyes to see the foul for myself 😂
Reverse elder abuse!
I think that’s called child abuse
Curry is Lukas father confirmed
So, Curry is grandfather of Book?
damn that’s a pretty elite lineage ;-)
Live footage of Jos leaving Max at the gas station
But Luka is Wiggin’s child though.
Luka is indeed a child/baby. Cries enough
Call the ambulance!
But not for me
Abuse by elder lol
Fatty abuse
The Elder was abusing
Replay showed no foot-stepping or tripping, by the way.
Oh he tripped alright, over his own foots lol
Yep. A genuine ankle breaker. Very rare.
cankle breaker
Luka kicked his own leg. Just like me fr
TIL I can be an NBA superstar.
I thought he stepped on his foot lol
he’s just ass on defense
If we’re being honest, he actually was playing great defense up until then. It was shocking.
But then he realized this is what happens sometimes and went back to being lazy on defense. That part wasn’t shocking.
Just like your Curry
Just completely lost his balance on the deceleration. Pure ankles.
ok that’s actually insane
Yeah at first I thought he just tripped on curry’s foot, and it looks really close, but the zoomed angle I saw, I couldn’t make out any foot to foot contact.
Thank you
It was just right next to it. Trapped him.
you talkin bout brunson? brunson?
Pretty hard to tell from the angle they showed. Is his foot contacting Steph’s here? I can’t tell. Steph definitely extended his arm and contacted him like that so it’s not a contact-less ankle breaker, but that part wasn’t enough to make him fall
No it is not. Hope that helps yfw
babe wake up new copeypasta just dropped
He fully extended arm pushed Luka though, could have been called for an offensive foul as thats the emphasis supposedly by the refs
Refs had to let that go this game, otherwise Luka would’ve fouled out in 5 minutes.
No stepping, but this was a very obvious push-off. Missed offensive foul
They should auto delete highlight posts that don’t show the replay. Fuck the being first BS. Wait 30 seconds and post the replay
Oh my god
luka repsonded appropraitely
As he’s been the whole game, these two have been going back and forth old school style
Yeah these dudes are putting on a show
Two best shot makers in the league going at it
He made a good 3 but he didn’t make nobody bow at his feet while doing it
Cus he did it against an amazing defender, Steph did it on ‘luka’, and ran from the switch on the other end to avoid guarding Luka
Nope. There’s no response for that. Luka tried to talk some shit to the crowd but he got straight flame broiled by an old man.
he hit a two, and then got dropped by steph on the next possession, too. Steph missed the shot, though
“That was for Yaxel.” - Curry
Yaxel got cooked for this
Yeah. Tough night for the rookie fouling out and -20 +/- on a 17-point win.
Took one for the team. He knew what he was doing.
did he get cooked though?
Yaxel got cooked so he went and got big bro.
Yeah, but they lost so it doesn’t matter. He can’t even brag about it.
Yaxel’s stats isnt the only thing on the floor rn
Goat curry saving yaxels legacy
Legit ankle break
I used to really dislike Steph. Then he played for America. And I absolutely adored him. It must be so freaking awesome to be a warriors fan. That dude is UNREAL to root for. That shot over France in the Olympics will live with me forever.
As a fan since I was a little kid in the early 90s, and the terrible franchise we were for 95% of my life… he’s my messiah. I’ll give my life for him.
Always surprising to hear of people disliking Steph. I get that he sometimes destroys teams and dreams, but he’s genuinely a good person and plays with so much joy.
I mean I liked him in general but I didn’t like playing against him and the antics of the team in general and his taunting and stuff but I always respected him as a legend. Hes in my top 5 all time and I’m willing to debate anyone. But I hated playing against him. Until he played for USA and I realized that shit is awesome lol
Team USA run was so fun because everyone got to cheer for Curry having him on their side.
Was the one time Warriors fans rooted for bron too
Except for the international fans. They still had pain.
I felt the same way with the team USA run about rooting for guys I hadn’t until that point. Mostly LeBron, Embiid and Booker. Genuinely enjoyed rooting for all of them
I like Booker’s vibe, a lot.
The old school video camera
Saying “I’ll do it” in reference to playing ego-less
I fuck with all of that hard
I was so sooo happy the entire US basketball fandom got to experience that. That’s a Tuesday for us warriors fans. The feeling when he starts doing his thing is unlike anything else. It’s like anything is possible.
Last 2 games were legendary. Golden daggers and shots over wemby
As a dubs fan, his “antics” are the way they are because of the bullshit whistle he has had his whole career. Like people think he’s show boating when in reality it’s usually a message of FU to the refs. People don’t realize he’d prob average 10 more points of he just got an average whistle. His taunting and stuff is usually his response to people trying to punk him because he’s small and non-athletic. There’s actually not a single clip you can find where’s he’s an asshole outside of the court. Not one. I’ve never heard him talk bad about a single person in his career.
This is one of the most out of touch with reality post I’ve seen here. Congrats.
His sleep routine, him grabbing his head twice in this game today. Nice try.
And yes, he gets pretty bad whistle and I love Steph but he showboats as fuck. And he should. No need to make nonsense up.
Do you like any other opposing player’s taunting?
You dont have to…
He’s The Greatest Player of All Time.
He celebrates a lot on the court, it rubs some people the wrong way.
He has fun. I kind of understand why if he’s winning that’s frustrating to watch. But are you telling me you’d rather watch Kawhi be all unemotional. Curry got me back into the NBA because of the joy he plays with. Which does translate to him celebrating.
He also does crazier shit on the court, shooting wise, than anyone ever so I feel like it’s warranted. It would be excessive if his play wasn’t also excessively great.
The worst part is he completely earns it. Shit, if I was him I’d be smirking and hitting the night-night too. He acts like he’s the god of shooting coming down to Earth to bless us mortals, and it pisses me off because that’s exactly what he is
Hopefully they don’t watch the NFL or MLB too
Im a warriors fan, but if I wasn’t I actually totally get it.
The shimmying, the mouth guard chewing, insane levels of attention and then Draymond by relation.
It’s simple. Steph don’t play for their team, so you gotta hate lol.
I also forget 2008 was far enough back people born then are now in college (fml). That Davidson run made me an instant fan and why I started watching the nba.
idk anecdotally i always loved steph even when he whooped my team in the finals
but he’s genuinely a good person
I mean he’s nice but isn’t he famously a NIMBY?
You could say the same about Jordan
he a cool dude, but watching him torch your team and single handedly lead a win is fucking awful 😂
Curry looked away and celebrated towards the fans instead of rubbing it in on Luka who shot a 3 immediately after.
Thats why it drives me crazy when people try to say the “smart” thing to do is trade Steph while he still can get value back, its such a dumb idea that just craps on the joy he brings fans of the team. There is no other player that would replace that joy as a fan
That’s not to rebuild, but to free Steph is all.
Free him even though he has said his desire is to only play for one team in his career? Free him to move himself and his family across the country to start again at a new franchise at 38 years old? Free him to move from the Bay Area where he has build his brand and golfs whenever he wants with perfect weather?
I love how so many people online seem to know whats better for him than he does himself.
He tried the Olympic shot a few plays after this haha
What made you dislike him so much? Honest question.
It was, but it wasn’t, they couldn’t put together a decent team around him and wasted the past 4 years. And Draymond triple single didn’t help
Its absolutely intoxicating to be his fans. Us warriors fans being able to enjoy this for the las18 years has been nothing but a treat, and we still eating good in his 18th season.
It’s been a true pleasure for 17 years. The dude is the king of the Bay.
There is a reason we call him greatest show in Sports. When he is on there is legit no one better
Lol same dawg. I just appreciate his greatest now. This shit was sick!
Nuit nuit!
That shot ?? There were 4 of them !! When le diable decides that it rains, it poors !!
I love that one shot in the final when he hit the night night celly and someone tweeted “so this is why warriors fans were like that for the last 10 years this is so fun”.
Steph is doing to Luka what he used to do to Harden and CP3
Steph hates the floppers in particular
Say what? Worst flop of the night was from a Warrior, Podz.
It’s like poetry. It rhymes.
Im certain there’s a clip of Steph frying everyone
LADIES AND GENTS, WE HAVE A GAME
classic. just glad to see curry still playing at a high level.
Absolutely disgusting. Genuine WOW moment
Also honestly respect to Luka for trying on defense. I’d imagine it is a weird feeling playing defense on genuinely great scorers like this, knowing you could give it your all but still at any moment you might wind looking like an absolute fool
lol at the shot out for trying
This dude on my colleges basketball team absolutely cooked me one day. You just let it go at a certain point. Like you got it bro.
Wind up*
No hate, just keeping the culture alive
I imagine it’s weird for Luka to play defense at all. He’s no Kevin Love, that’s all I’m saying.
Yes it was crazy for me to think I’ve rarely ever seen him get low to defend someone from scoring. Like literally just normal defense and im looking at like he added a new element to his game
His on bal D is pretty decent and bid bball iq lets him jump passing routes and such. But in all reality he doesn’t try very hard on D bc he would be gassed with how he plays on offense with the ball
Unc curry with the call an ambulance but not for me
This man just dropped to his knees like a life alert commercial
Made him pose like the titanic painting. Draw me like one of your french girls
Fucking disgusting. Holy fuck cant believe i get to watch curry man
warriors robbed steph from knicks
Might be the nastiest ankle breaker in awhile god damm steph
Since he broke cp3
It was literally a push off. How can you not see that 😭
Just making shit up now
Slow down the replay, he does a quick push while his arm is fully extended. Easily could have been an offensive foul as thats the refs emphasis this season.
Even better. Luka got Derrick Henried by Steph Curry
Whatever makes you sleep at night.
damn Steph is hella fuckin strong then
Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha come on man.
Watch the replay angle, it’s as clean as it can get
Sure, if it makes you feel better bro
Luka pushed off one leg- onto the other than fell over
You might need to make an appointment with your doctor.
Me when I’m coping
Wasn’t a push off, but kind of looked like Luka just tripped on his own foot.
I know its spooky season but cmon man. It was definitely Casper.
LAID HIM DOWN TO SLEEP 🙏🤲
Yaxel probably like “ i told my dad on you 👅 “
Oh we getting an instant classic aren’t we
TOUCHES EARTH
He touched earth and made it worse by just staying there
That’s going to be on the highlight reel forever
Reel not real
It was reel bad for Luka
Fixed, autocorrect doesn’t know what’s right
Its real to me damnit
Oh it’s definitely real
Damn near 12 years after the CP3 cross, this mf is the goat entertainer
Bro should have just stayed down
It was a normal trip but it’s good for tik tok brained warriors fans like you to cope when he drops 40+ on you
Acting like you wouldn’t have busted if it was the other way around
Imagine being this angry lmao.
I don’t think there was any trip on the replay? But correct me if I’m wrong
Luka tripped himself.
Cry more
Update?
Guess 40 wasn’t enough 🤷♂️
Damn that was nasty, Luka fell like a pretzel.
That was for Yaxel Lendeborg
That one was for America
This only having 3k upvotes is kinda insane lol
Give it time plus the Luka stans will be downvoting.
You say that as if Luka doesn’t have a target on his back for years imao.
laker fanbase pretty huge
Probably being mad downvoted by everybody in LA
Believe it or not, it started at 1
It will be up to 5k by the morning.
Friday night late west coast game.
It’s at over 9k not even an hour later
Look again lol
Patience man
Luka can never recover from this. I’m kidding, but also not really.
That was the last time he tried playing defense in this game, so I think it’s fair to say he never recovered.
he will learn to use his feet again, someday.
that just costed him the MVP race
The hardwood at Chase Center will never recover from that
He drained a deep step back 3 about 10 seconds after this clip ended
that 3 was forgotten instantly. this clip will be posted in the internet for years after
Well yeah. But he still gonna avg 30+ for quite a few seasons. This will be a fond moment for him in the future documentary.
I mean yeah, it’ll be a moment in the Steph Curry documentry lmfao
Then he got fried again later
Then Luka comes back and hit a difficult 3. This game is pretty nuts
Overpowered offenses lol with no defense
It’s 2026 and today Steph, Klay and Lebron just had a combined 76/13/17/2/2 statline.
nastyyyyy
This game fucks dude
Why?
Two big time players popping off against each other? Dramatic BS from a young brash player causing the vet to pop off?
What’s not to think it’s going in.
YOU MURDERED MY BOY 😭
