The Golden State Warriors are 10-2 in the NBA, second in the Western Conference, and undefeated in the NBA Cup through the first two games. While Stephen Curry is still playing at an elite, if not dominating, level, Steve Kerr has done an excellent job of building a lineup and game plan to get the most out of his superstar. However, even with Curry playing under 30 minutes a night, he is still capable of taking over games when needed.
Amid the spectacle of the NBA Cup, one analyst recently ranked the five most dangerous players in the NBA. © Stephen Brashear-Imagn Images According to ESPN, the five most dangerous players in the NBA Cup are Giannis Antetokounmpo, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, LeBron James, Donovan Mitchell, and finally, in the number one spot, Curry. "Did you see him in the Olympics? I know LeBron won the MVP, but (Curry) stole the show," said Kendrick Perkins on ESPN.
"Did you see his last game when Klay returned back to the Bay area? Did you see the passion he's playing with? By the way, his team right now is top five offensively and top five defensively. This man right here, Steph Curry..
.the greatest point guard to ever play, he definitely has the capability to take over the game." Related: Warriors Remain Undefeated in NBA Cup In the gold medal game against France, Curry hit 8-13 of his 3-point shots and made four in a row in the fourth quarter to ice the game for Team USA.
He is only averaging 22.7 points per game this season, but his deadly 43.2 percent from distance suggests that he can make big-time shots.
As the former Clutch Player of the Year, perhaps no one is better equipped to take games over than Curry, and Perkins seems to know it. Related: Mock Trade Sees Warriors Add Even More Shooting.
