Ever said Curry ruined the game? M-Jackson: Don't want kids to shoot far three-pointers Ordinary people don't have that talent

Former Warriors coach Mark Jackson recently spoke on the "Club Shay Shay" show about what kind of players Curry and Thompson are in his mind.

The host said that Mark Jackson said that when he was coaching the Warriors (2011-2014), he said that Curry and Thompson were the most projectional backcourt combination in the history of the NBA, and at that time, the outside world dismissed his statement, believing that he was speaking for his players from the perspective of the team's head coach, to which Mark Jackson gave the reason for his conclusion.

"The way they train, the way they prepare, how seriously they take their talents, it's easy for me to come to that conclusion. I even said that there is no historical approach to their combination, and if you don't believe me, just say I'm bragging. I don't lie, everything I say is based on the facts I see every day.

I still think so to this day, people say that Jerry West and Gayle Goodrich are close to them in terms of data, I say John Stockton and Jeff Hornasek, Hornasek is a quality shooter, Stockton is good, but he is not as prolific as others. Curry and Thompson are unparalleled shooters, they are extremely talented in this area, and no one can approach them. Mark Jackson said.

Asked when curry's projection abilities were seen, Mark Jackson said: "I saw it before I became the Warriors head coach, I was still commenting on the game, although they weren't very strong at the time, but they were in a good western location and there would be some prime time games, so I will explain."

I even explained a Duke University game against Davidson College, where Curry was still at Davidson College. I told Jeff Van Gundy that he could play as an NBA starting point guard today and that he had top talent. My father and I were teammates at the Raptors, and he and his brother Seth would practice shooting before the game, and Dale Curry said they would play in the NBA later, and he didn't say a big word. ”

The host said that the children are now learning to shoot three points in the library, and Mark Jackson mentioned that he once said that "Curry ruined the game": "People think I am criticizing Curry, but the truth is that I also have children, I see those children are learning to shoot three points in the library, but they are all very bad shots." 」 Instead of choosing an easy way to score points, they shot three points from halftime, and I thought it was too bad.

Curry has a talent for shooting, and even I, if I shoot like that, would ruin the game because I'm not Stephen Curry, I shouldn't have learned Curry, I should have been the best player I could be. People think it's easy to shoot a long-range three-pointer because he makes people think it's easy to do so. They think they can do it, but they are actually deceiving themselves. ”
