Too early? I hope not.
Steph is #7 in career 3s. He is 20 out of 5th (Halloween?). With a good year he'll be 3rd.
He's #2 in playoff 3s- only 7 out of 1st.
He's #161 in career points. With a good year he'll move above #110.
He's #99 in career assists. The top 70 is attainable this year. |

Probably just an average year gets him 3rd. But he is too far out to move up any further. Ray Allen is really out there. |

Last night was the 10th time Steph has made 10 or more 3s in a game. All the other players in NBA history, combined, have only done this 7 times.
Edit: incorrect- Steph has made 11 or more 6 times. Only 7 others have ever done this (1 time each).

Random quotes from today's news.
Quote: | Curry passed Jamal Crawford for fifth place on the NBA’s all-time three-pointers list, and now has more 3-pointers (33) in his first five games of the regular season than anyone in NBA history, breaking his own record set during his unanimous-MVP 2015-16 season. Had he played the fourth quarter, he likely would have broken another of his NBA records: 13 threes in a game. |
Quote: | “Seemed like some of the ones he missed might have been from a little further, and I wasn’t even mad that he took them,†Kerr said. “You get a guy taking 40-footers, and you’re on the sidelines going, ‘Yeah, that’s a good shot. Good job.’ Explain that. We have never seen this before.†|
Quote: | Bradley Beal, one of several Wizards players who tried to slow Curry, struck a similar tone of resignation. Beal was asked what you can do when Curry gets in the zone like he did Wednesday night, leading the Warriors to a 144-122 win.
“Foul the sâ€" out of him,†Beal said nonchalantly. “That’s probably what we should have done. And even when we did that, he was still making them.†|
Quote: | “It was a joy to be on the same court with that, that was sick,†Kevin Durant said. |
Quote: | Through 5 games, Steph Curry is 33-for-63 from 3-point territory. He is on pace for 541 3-pointers this season (he made 402 3-pointers during his unanimous MVP season in 2015-16) |

Well he can't be 1st this year, but he can reach 2nd. _________________ "McKillop is a gentleman. He could have played 'name that score' if he so desired."---St Joe's fan |

I guess this is his new trick shot - throw it way up high when no ordinary human would have a chance of making it, probably after getting mugged around the top of the key. |

It's fun to watch the highlights a second time and concentrate on the faces and actions of the opponents after he makes some of his shots. _________________ "There ain't no sanity clause!" Chico Marx |

Reggie Miller is 2nd at 2560. Steph has 2162. 77 games left. 5.17 3s/game gets it done. _________________ "McKillop is a gentleman. He could have played 'name that score' if he so desired."---St Joe's fan |
