This fourth quarter was truly a masterclass about Curry's gravity on the floor

[jasonlovesrocks]

That's exactly it, he creates points for his teammates without getting assists. One of the best to ever play the game . . .

We need more videos like this, breakdowns of specific games during the season. The quality is amazing

[restivepanda]

This stuff is so difficult to recognize in real-time due to how fast the game moves, but it's like you see it all in slow motion. Great work, Ben

Stephen Curry got mvp chants in Cleveland, that’s one thing i never expected

[wavy]

I was at the game last night and watching that man in person was insane. Never seen someone so fast with the ball yet so efficient. Even lebron doesn’t effect the game this much. Curry had everyone in the arena mad cause everytime he touched the ball u knew he was about to make a play. What a legend.

[Sanban]

It’s literally insane how scared teams are of curry’s threes and curry in general. If someone says that curry’s gravity isn’t real show them this video

[MrHotSpice]

That one possession where he creates 2 open layups for his team mates then is just like ‘Fine I’ll do it myself’ and creates a 3 is just beautiful 😍

[RIPJimmyAX]

This 4th quarter actually really reminded me of the 4th quarter of game 6 against Houston in 2019, where Curry starts cooking and the opposing team feels the game slipping away and it sends them into full panic mode and then you see Curry showing his mastery of Kerrs system, no matter what the defense did the answer was wrong

[prajwalkrishnabhat]

As of right now, I don't think there's a single player who commands more attention on The court than curry. Not only is his defender always glued to him with or without the ball, but even the help defenders sometimes are paying more attention to Steph than the actual players they need to guard. Not only that, the help defenders are always ready to ditch their man in order to double or even triple team Steph. This happens only to Steph and no one else, it's crazy.

[flavia.DivineSpark]

if Steph is not himself the definition of the Most Valuable Player, I don't know who is. He is totally out of the curve

[Shemzinho]

The greatest offensive player ever. I’ve never seen a player bend a defense to this degree it’s fucking abnormal

[mrtspence]

Steph just pulled out the gun and turned on the distortion field and there was suddenly no chance for the Cavs. Absolutely ridiculous.

[MindfulSeduction]

The goat is back. You should do more old school breakdowns Ben!!! 😭😭😭😭

[Stoddard]

God, I love watching Steph play. He's just so so good. He's fast, his shot is virtually unguardable, he's scary accurate, and the best part? He's a likeable guy off the court. I don't know how anyone can sit here, and not appreciate Steph. When he retires, no doubt his presence will be missed as much as MJ when he retired.

Like, really, he can make a 60 foot shot look super simple.

[mustysmells]

I know this might be a hot take, and history will only remember steph for his accuracy, but this video proves in my eyes Steph is the greatest PG to ever play.

[yahalyulmer]

Random Thursday night in Cleveland sounds like a classic night for Steph to explode88

[Valdivia]

Great content. It’s crazy how a superstar does all the right offball movements for the benefit of the team. He’s not hunting assists, he’s hunting buckets. What a player.

[holymsophy]

Cleveland came to play basketball, they didn't know they signed up for that Extreme Cardio spin cycle with the chef.
😂😂😂

Draymond’s basketball IQ is insane. The way he sees the court flowing in the middle of a game is amazing
