Curry also signed what is now a damn low contract because the knock on him was his glass ankles. Don't think he's been injured since.

Just got done with Wiz/Hawks.
That's about as poorly as ATL will ever play offensively. Shot 10/41 in the 2nd half on good looks. Ice cold on literally the same looks they've been getting all season long. You can probably count on 1 hand how many bad shots ATL took in the 2nd half.
There was one possession late where Horford missed an open 17 footer, offensive rebound, Teague missed a wide open three at the top, offensive rebound, Korver missed an open three, offensive rebound, Teague missed a layup, offensive rebound, Horford missed a point blank layup.
All of that on one possession
5 makeable shots, all bricks. Twas a microcosm of the 2nd half really.
But that's the danger you run when you don't have guys who can get to the line with regularity. Some nights the shots just don't go.

Steps had one D-1 offer.
Couldn't even get an offer from his Dad's alma matter. V-Tech said he could be a walk on [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]. Disrespectful. He then goes to Davidson with no history, plays SHOOTING GUARD there...is considered to small, to slow, can't handle and turnover prone...and ends up being an MVP and 2nd best PG in the game.
He's already overachieved

Finally caught the end of the Wiz Hawks game. I did not like the body language of most Hawk players with the ball at the end. Hawks missing alpha players that want the ball at the end, and I think that's why they been faltering in the playoffs.

He was the 7th pick in the draft bro it ain't like he was a second rounder.
Michael Jordan got cut in high school so I guess he's an underdog story too.
I'm not going to continue to argue this because he's a certified monster and deserves all his shine.
But of all the things to call him underdog just ain't it

Every series so far, NT supports the winner and the loser gets the super slander.
I don't think anybody actually watched the game because all I heard wsa "it's boring" "it's EastCoast". People saw the end score and didn't know how Wiz won but, that it was joke and slander time.
This won't happen 3 more times, not even 2 more times. Wiz will be llucky to win 1 more, that's if ATL can go cold again.

How does being a lottery pick overshadow the overall story?
Being a lottery pick is just one part of that underdog journey. Being an MVP is another.

Steph deserves it. I would say he's somewhat of a underdog. I definitely didn't think he would be this good.

Michael Jordan was a heralded high school prospect. Yes he got cut...in the 10th grade.
Stephen Curry as a high school senior would have to walk on @ ******* Virginia Tech.
That was a reach.

Hawks 3 games into the first round were shooting 38% against the nets, i repeat the nets
So dont tell me the Wizards who have better d cant make them shoot worse
Im willing to bet they wont shoot 50% like the first half every game
