WATCH: Stephen Curry's 3-pointers are somehow getting more audacious
The Warriors guard will launch anywhere, any time, any how

There are these shots that Stephen Curry takes that just seem nonsensical. That he hits them with such regularity is absurd. It's like a Dali painting where the rim is actually dripping sideways into a desert. These shots make zero sense.
In the Warriors' game against the Jazz on Tuesday, Curry, who overall had a rough game for three quarters, snagged an offensive rebound by lurking among the trees, tapped the ball back to himself, and in one fluid motion, turned around and launched from 3-point range.
This stuff is just not realistic. It's the uncanny valley of 3-pointers.
Curry's ability to make these shots has opened up his confidence in trying even more audacious shots, and getting that confidence is helping him make more of them. It's a fusion engine of crazy 3-pointers, and it's why he's about to be a two-time MVP and may have put together the finest offensive season in NBA history.
