Steph Curry forever changed the game of basketball. The Chef can hit shots from places on the hardwood that most players wouldn\u2019t even think to aim at, and he does it with this effortless swagger that makes defenders look silly.<\/p>\n

And when the four-time NBA Champion gets hot, it\u2019s like the whole arena is holding its breath, because you know every possession could turn into a dagger three. In those moments, he\u2019s the absolute best player on the court, regardless of who is guarding him. The question is, what\u2019s going through Curry\u2019s mind when he can\u2019t miss?<\/p>\n

A few years ago, ESPN asked Steph to break down his mindset when he was in the zone. \u201cTo be in the zone, it\u2019s a great feeling,\u201d stated<\/a> the future Hall of Famer.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a feeling that no matter where you are on the court, if you have your balance or not, if you have a good look at the basket or not, you feel like you\u2019re invincible when the ball is released from your hands and it\u2019s on its way to the basket.\u201d<\/p>\n

But now Curry has given an even more in-depth answer, one that can give fans of ball a better picture as to what greatness feels like in the moment. Da Kid Gowie had The Chef as a guest on his show, where Curry revealed that on occasion, he blacks out in the moments he\u2019s going off.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere might be something you see that insights a little flurry. I do black out, which is why you see all them awkard and hilarious celebrations and stuff,\u201d stated<\/a> the 37-year-old superstar.<\/p>\n

Honestly, that makes sense. If you look at any of Curry\u2019s most famous games, whether it be his 13 three pointers in 2016 or his now iconic performance in the Gold Medal game from the 2024 Olympics, Steph has turned shooting the longball can\u2019t miss television.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen there\u2019s just a true flow state where you block out everything and that\u2019s when you kind of see the true, kind of deep emotions in my face, and I\u2019m just having fun,\u201d he added. That part is obvious. When you have a resume of accomplishments as long as Curry does, of course you\u2019re going to be having fun doing it.<\/p>\n

When Steph gets rolling, it\u2019s like watching someone bend the game to their will. The crazy shots, the celebrations, the runs that leave teams stunned. I\u2019s all part of what makes him so special. He\u2019s not just a shooter, he\u2019s a show that fans never want to miss.<\/p>\n

What sets him apart is the feeling he creates every time he steps on the court. You know something unforgettable could happen, and more often than not, it does. And that\u2019s just watching him as a shooter. He\u2019s also an elite passer, superb handler, and has one one of the most entertaining pregame rituatls of all time. Suffice to say, the league will feel much emptier whenever he does decided to hang em up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Steph Curry forever changed the game of basketball.
