Steph Curry crosses up Marvin Williams

And speaking of cold-blooded savagery….Stephen Curry ended Marvin Williams this game. It’s never an easy task guarding the two-time MVP. Turns out, it’s not an easy task even staying on your feet.

Steph Curry is one of the best ball handlers in the entire league. He’s no stranger to crossing guys over and making them look foolish. He’s also been known to make stars fall over (looking at you, Chris Paul).

He struck again as he dropped Williams in the Golden State Warriors’ big win. The Hornet was trailing Curry as he switched sides on the court. The point guard used a James Michael McAdoo screen to get a little bit of space. He received the pass from Draymond Green and started dribbling to the top of the key.

Williams was sprinting hard to recover on the sniper, chasing him towards the middle of the floor. Then, Curry crossed back over to his right. Williams’ mind went with him, but his body went right and, ultimately, to the hardwood.

Williams tried to get up, but he crawled a bit on all fours until he gave up. Curry stepped back towards his right and launched the three. He hopped on one foot as he watched the trey fall through the net.

Steph Curry is back. Whoever thought that the player he was during the Finals when he was dealing with a knee injury was actually him was truly mistaken. This ankle-breaking, three-point demon is the baddest dude in basketball.

Marvin Williams learned that the hard way.
