The funniest thing about this is - NOBODY even said this. Nobody on this board seriously thinks that it's impossible for Curry to have two bad shooting nights in a row. OP is making up shyt to push his agenda.

:what:

Teams have been forcing him into bad shots or passing the ball all season long. He just had two consecutive poor shooting nights - that's all. Far too much has been made of these TWO games.
With a team as good as GS and a player as consistent as Curry is, I don't see how a two game performance like that DOESNT require some opinions to be made...I mean that's the double edged sword of dominating all the time...the moment you don't it signals murmurs, looks and discussions. And even though no one has said directly from dub nation that back to back bad shooting games were an impossible for Curry...a good many from the nation have given off that vibe...which is completely fine with me because that's how a supportive group should be...but don't be surprised when the wolves come out when curry is off, cuz it's ALOT of big talk when he's on:upsetfavre:

You don't see how it's a complete overreaction, especially since the Warrirors are still on pace for breaking the regular season record, and Curry is having one of the greatest seasons a PG has ever had? No opinions should be made off TWO games, that are an anomaly. Just like know opinions should be made on a player who players horrible for 95% of the season and has a few games where he gets hot. I get that dudes like baiting others, but for them to act like they're being reasonable is another thing altogether.

This is the problem. These dumbass straw man arguments. If no one said or alluded to this, there's no grounds for you to assume they're giving off this vibe.

Curry is 4 of 23 (17.4%) on wide open 3s since March 1st. (season at 44.5%)
Kawhi is 3 of 18 (16.7%) on wideopen 3s since March 1st. (season at 53.3%)
Curry's overall numbers are way down this month. Scroll down to the "month" category: NBA.com/Stats

They're likely just tired and don’t have the legs right now. Nothing to see here.

So the fukk what? If you let these nikkas on here tell it, Steph Curry is impervious to tight defense and he'll make it whether you smother him or not because he's better than Kobe and Jordan and magic put together

Your assessment of the Curry fans on here is......

I think the Spurs gameplan was a little bit more advanced than the Cavs', but I think they gave Pop a foundation to build on. I don't think many other teams continued running with that film because of how god tier Steph looked to start the season. Genuinely had other teams concede that Steph was unstoppable. Once a guy is in your head like that, what can you do?

Come on man...u can't expect people to only receive those messages through the direct verbatim of "Curry will never have two off games"...I don't have to go through all of the comments made by warriors fans on this forum that would lend to the idea that an off night for curry should never be expected...there's too many, id be at it til Christmas :yeshrug:...EVERYONE from media pundits to posters on this site have mentioned the arrogance of GS/Curry/Nation. :comeon:And the fact that Curry (and GS for that matter) were held in check by two diff. teams two games in a row and one of the teams are basically a bunch of babies runnin around out there...yea, I don't think people are reaching for discussing if these defensive adjustment are the breakthrough for dealing with GS...like u said they are dominant, they do have the record probably in hand...all the more reason for discussing the whys and how's of what makes them look less than stellar on any given night...let alone two back to back. This is the league dog...every fan base wants the chip...get used to wearing that target:manny:

There's no comments on here that would lead one to believe there's an overwhelming narrative [from Warriors fans] on how Curry won't EVER have an off night or two, or the idea of one not being a possibility. How could this be possibly true when folk have seen him have "off nights" sporadically throughout the season? Even despite him being the GOAT shooter, people aren't naive to the fact he isn't immune to poor shooting nights.

What does their perceived "arrogance" have to with the topic at hand?
And the fact that Curry (and GS for that matter) were held in check by two diff. teams two games in a row and one of the teams are basically a bunch of babies runnin around out there...yea, I don't think people are reaching for discussing if these defensive adjustment are the breakthrough for dealing with GS...like u said they are dominant, they do have the record probably in hand...
GS were not held in check by the T'Wolves.

People are most certainly reaching after two games, not only did they only lose ONE of those games, not only were they undermanned (no Bogut, Iggy and Ezeli), not only is in late in the season where exhaustion and boredom sets in, but they've had games we've they struggled to put teams away throughout the entire season. Do you remember when they lost two games in a three game span (narrowly losing to the Nuggets and getting blown out by the Pistons) and on came the overreactions - they then blew the Cavs out by 34 points and proceeded to win 19 out of their next 20 games - nobody said shyt during that period. What about when Curry had two off nights against the Mavs (36% - 14 points) and Knicks (29% - 13 points) in late January - he went and averaged 37 ppg on 55% shooting, 7 assists in February, in one of the most dominant months a PG has ever had.

How the fukk isn't this two game sample (the only lost one game) a reach on how to deal with this team/Curry?
all the more reason for discussing the whys and how's of what makes them look less than stellar on any given night...let alone two back to back. This is the league dog...every fan base wants the chip...get used to wearing that target:manny:
There's nothing wrong with that. Yet folk aren't discussing what really is the cause behind them 'looking less than stellar', rather just using their own preconceived beliefs to push their own storyline.
