There are few players who have had as much of an impact on the game as Stephen Curry. While he may not have the size or physicality of some of his peers, Curry has made up for it with an uncanny ability to shoot from beyond the arc.
In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say that Curry has revolutionized the game of basketball with his three-point shot. His shooting prowess has changed the way that basketball is played, and his influence has paved the way for a new generation of long-range shooters.
NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar now gave his thoughts about this modern NBA, and jokingly threatened to slap Stephen Curry for changing the game.
“They’ve forgotten about anything that does not say three points on it. I’ve gotta go across the Bay and slap Steph Curry for changing everybody’s mind about how to play the game,”
Now this is gold 😂😂 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar says he needs to “slap Steph Curry” for changing the game when asked about his advice for youngsters on the skyhook. He says they don’t think about the skyhook, it’s all about the three ball now. #DubNation pic.twitter.com/SyH8YHLuk6
