Steph Curry’s Top 10 plays of 2015-16

6. Crossing KD

There’s nothing like watching two greats go at it. Steph Curry was trying to establish himself as the best player in the world. Durant was one of the guys who, for years, was towards the top of that list.

Durant is an underrated defensive player. He has all the tools to be able to bother and stay in front of any opponent. He’s got extremely long arms to go with his great height and quickness. He doesn’t have the size to bang with big guys, but he’s more than well-equipped to hang with guards.

Even with all of his gifts, Durant was no match for Curry. He switched out onto the league’s leading scorer with less than 10 seconds on the shot clock and it was over for him. The Warriors’ superstar shook him out of his shoes.

Curry hit him with a series of dribble moves. He drove left, hesitated, and went behind the back and started going right. Durant tried to stay in front of him, but the MVP was able to get around and all KD could do was reach. Curry left him in the dust.

He drove down the middle of the lane and went to his trademark finger roll, finishing over Serge Ibaka. He showed that he is more than just a shooter, which is a weird, yet common assessment of his game. He did it all there.

His crossover moves were so lethal that he shook Durant out of his OKC uniform and into a Golden State one.
