What's wrong with Steph?

By -
 Steph Curry over his last 7 games lets just call it what it is he's been awful shooting the ball. He is 18 for 76 from the three point line over that stretch which is 24%. He is struggling to find that rhythm he had all of last season. What could be the problem? Is it fatigue? Is it cause Kevin Durant is out with an injury ( even though he went 0-11 with KD on the floor )? In my opinion I just think he is missing shots he normally makes due mainly to fatigue and misfortune. I'm sure Steve Kerr is heck of a lot smarter then I am, but I feel like all he can do is keep shooting and give him adequate amount of rest. Steph has played a lot of basketball over the past 3 seasons and as you know the most important thing for a shooter is his legs and right now they seem to be very heavy for him. Guys like Kobe and Lebron are able to endure longer seasons because they have the ability to play from the post and get to certain spots. They game isn't predicated on shooting 30 footers every night so when they are fatigue they could always find ways to get easy 2's or live at the free throw line something Steph has a harder time doing. So if I was Steve of the remaining games left in the regular season I would let Steph play maybe half of them. Lets be honest it doesn't matter what seed the Warriors get, when they are healthy and rested nobody is beating them 4 out of 7 games. Especially now with the Spurs misfortune of losing LaMarcus for the immediate future the Warriors have time to take a deep breath and get things together. Steph is going to be fine, and I think it is a simple case of him missing shots due to fatigue and has absolutely zero to do with them losing Kevin Durant.

I believe Steph will get it going again real soon and if or when he does the Warriors are head and shoulders above everyone else in the NBA. Steph is the greatest shooter in NBA history and he didn't magically forget how to put the ball in the rim so my money is on him figuring this thing out pretty quickly.

The SportsPACK NBA Regular Season Awards

basketballsocietyonline.com MVP: Russell Westbrook Oklahoma City Thunder This year's MVP race has been the closest it's been in recent memory. With 5 legit candidates, anyone of them is well deserving of the award but my choice is Westbrook. Not only did he break a record I thought would never be broken with 42 triple-doubles, but after losing 3 out of their top 5 scorers, Westbrook still has the Thunder in the playoffs as a 6th seed and lead the NBA in scoring. James Harden had an outstanding season but has a lot more help in Houston than Westbrook has in OKC, which was one of my biggest deciding factors. warriorsworld.net Defensive Player of the Year: Draymond Green Golden State Warriors After coming in 2nd in DPOY voting 2 seasons in a row Draymond Green final wins the award. Averaging 2 steals a game, Draymond is tied with Wizards point guard John Wall for 1st in the NBA. Green can guard all positions effectively and is the anchor for a Golden State defense that ...

Players Need Rest

By -
The media, fans of the NBA and legends of the game are getting upset at coaches resting star players throughout the season. I understand that the fans want to see their favorite player every night but in order to get peak performance out of your favorite players they need rest. NBA players more now than ever have a very demanding schedule on and off the court. Between traveling for games, having multiple endorsement deals and playing on back to back nights; coaches believe that its only fair to gave the players a night off. Most of the players that get nights off usually play through multiple injuries all the time so we shouldn't complain much. I know NBA tickets are not cheap and you expect to see the stars when you buy that ticket but that's the risk you take when you make your purchase. The players and coaches have to put their organization's needs first. None of these players are saying they need rest but it is much appreciated.
