Saturday night against the Sacramento Kings, Stephen Curry tried to take a page out of James Harden’s book and use his patented step-back.
It did not go well.
First off, that’s not Harden’s step-back jumper, as a lot of media outlets are calling it. As he gathers, instead of taking two steps, he takes one step and then takes two steps. Yes, that’s a travel.
If you’re calling out Harden’s step-back against the Jazz, then you have a much better argument. That’s not the case here.
