Currys gravity isn’t based on his shooting percentage that game or for the season.
He’s developed a well deserved reputation as the greatest 3pt threat ever and whether he’s 1-10 or 10-10 in any particular game teams are guarding him exactly the same. Do you think coaches at halftime or before games are like “yea curry is only shooting 40% this season from 3 so don’t worry about trapping or hedging him as hard because he’s slightly below his career average” of course not.
One can say that his percentages are down because he’s less open this season (I’ll check when I get home). The players around him aren’t as good as they’ve been in the past so teams can focus more on him
We can break down the film on defensive schemes for bad and good shooting games and see what it looks like.
