Steph Curry, my favorite player in the league :smokin :smokin

Legit think he can make 300 3's in one season. Was having an argument with my friend the other day about him, and I told him that I truly believe he should be shooting more 3's a game given the value of the 3 and his shooting ability. Should be taking 8 to 10 a game. He already makes over 40% of his 3's and takes like 7 a game which is insane in it's own right.

The scary part is, he's actually shoots the 3 more efficiently the further and further he moves back :x
 
When you think about what Curry is doing in the league right now, we really should be marveling what he does on the offensive end the way we marvel at like Lebron, or KD.

He averages over 24 a game efficiently without even getting to the free throw line, while being a below average finisher in the league. He makes 42% from deep and takes like 7 a game! Straight incredible stuff. I'm really curious as to how far he can push what he's doing because like I said, he should be shooting more 3's anyway.

Won't happen until there's another legit ball handler on this squad.  We'll see if Livingston can stay healthy and get past his defender to get the defense to collapse.

Lillard can very well break that record because of Curry's lost 3rd season due to injury.

how much credit should we give Mark Jackson for utilizing curry this way?

Jackson didn't use Curry properly enough. Part of the reason why he got canned.
How did Jackson not use Curry properly enough?

The biggest reason Jackson's gone is because he had a terrible relationship with his boss and didn't see eye-to-eye at all.

in the playoff series against the clippers, it took jackson a solid 3-4 games to realize they were hard trapping every PnR to get the ball out of steph's hands, and that he'd be better suited playing off the ball with defenders chasing him.

Because Jackson would rather run Lee or Thompson post ups and Barnes isos (the two least efficient ways to score) than Curry pick and rolls. Dude would focus more on attacking mismatches than just running the best plays for his best player.

Edit:

And yes, he did have a terrible relationship with ownership and management. But his boring, unimaginative offense was part of it as well. They go hand-in-hand.

His coaching ability was definitely not the reason Jackson got let go... I don't even think it's debatable. It's plainly obvious that the ownership was already making plans to let him go before the playoffs even concluded. Bridges were burned behind closed doors.

As bad as you guys make Jackson's coaching job out to be, it took the Clippers 7 games. So Jackson was doing something right in a few of those wins. It's easy to simplify all of the negative but Jackson wasn't the reason the Warriors didn't advance.
 
the warriors took the clippers to 7, and the thunder lost in the WCF, does that make scott brooks a good coach?

Was his coaching THE reason he was let go? No. But it was definitely a reason he was let go.
The Dubs were sometimes careless with the ball, though they cleaned that up as the season went on. Their offense lacked continuity; opposing defenses that snuffed out the first option could count on the Warriors devolving into a vapid isolation play over the last 12 seconds of the shot clock. The team chased mismatches on the block like an addict, chucking the ball to so-so post-up players and asking them to back down into uncomfortable fadeaway shots.

Eh, the list of elite coaches you can count maybe on one hand. Everyone else is going to have their shortcomings, and like I said it's really easy to simplify and target the negatives when it comes to coaching.

If their relationship was solid you could bet your fanny he would still be coaching the Warriors. His termination had very little to do with his coaching ability.
 
Maybe it wasnt too much Xs and Os but Marck Jackson deserves at least some credit for Currys quick turnaround into one of the best in the league.

His stale offense hurt them in the playoffs but if he didnt allow Curry to flourish they wouldn't have even got that far....imo
 
You gotta question the decision making in hiring one guy to be a coach who had no experience, fire him just to go and do the same exact thing again.

Never liked the Jackson hiring but maybe they do better with Kerr.
 
I have no problem giving Steph Curry the "Best 3 Point Shooter Ever" crown even though he has plenty of years to go in his career.

Sure as hell the best 3 shooter I've ever seen...ever.
 
Marc Jackson was a great coach.
They fired him because they could, not because he was a bad or new coach
 
I don't know if we can really call Jackson a "great" coach yet but like I said, if he had a solid relationship with his boss he sure as hell would still be coaching the Warriors.
 
I really credited Golden States turnaround to Jackson, they where always a so-so team. You have to give credit for developing Curry and Klay, especially when ownership was trying to shove harrison barnes down everyones throat for his first few years.
