For those who have seen him there is phrase that comes to mind when seeing him drop 40 points a night and that phrase is “In your eye, chump”. This guys is so good I think I’ll follow suit and change my name to Scuba Steph. He leads the nation in scoring and that is even after an entire game of being doubleteamed. He had two defenders on him the entire game against Loyola a few weeks ago and didn’t score a point. Of course, Davidson blew them out by 30 (it helps to have a power play the entier game). Even with that scoreless night he’s still averaging 32 points a game (#1 in the nation). Papa Dell's gotta be proud of this young chapp.
Not to get off the subject but having fun watching this kid play got me thinking about a strange sports phenomenon. Offense = Excitement. Example; Noone likes sitting through 90 minutes of soccer to have the final score be 0-0. Might as well have a 90 minute footrace with no finishline. It's a sports fact that we all just need to face. How else can you explain people filling an ice rink full of dead carcases after a goal in hockey? Again, offense=excitement. Say it with me, "Offense Equals Excitement". That being the case; Steph Curry is an offensive/scoring/excitement machine. If he’s eight feet off the three point line, get a hand up cause it’s going up and it’s probably going in. Thank you Stephen Curry, for giving ALL people a reason to watch men's bball this season.

Actually, there are millions of people, maybe billions of people, that would enjoy seeing a 90-minute grudge match pitting their favorite soccer team vs. another foe. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world you narrow-minded put-on-the-blinders-and-just-look-straight-ahead-cuz-I-don't-want-to-see-what-else-is-happening-in-the-world 2nd-Rate writer.
Although I would much rather see Curry shooting like the great shooters of the NBA. He is amazing to watch. I the notches he keeps on his bedpost are for the guys he's broken ankles for while driving to the rack.
