So I missed The Warriors vs. Portland last night, watching it via DVR this morning.
First quarter: Portland is double-teaming Steph Curry, 30 FEET FROM THE BASKET. What else are you going to do? He shoots 48% rom that range. So he drives around both guys towards the hoop. There's a guy at least six inches taller than him waiting there. So he just lofts the ball over the guy's outstretched arms, softly off the glass............NOTHING BUT NET.
So just how do you guard this guy? A: YOU CAN'T. As much as I've seen, he continues to amaze me every single night. He's MVP all over again.

Anyone who's good enough to "threaten" Oscar Robertson (who wasn't a bad ballplayer LOL) is really good.
But seriously; if a man who is probably in the top ten alltime of best players can be insecure when threatened no wonder the rest of us are f**ed up
