Throughout his career, Stephen Curry has been accused of not being club enough . Paradoxically, it must be admitted that some big shots from him remain in people’s minds. Recently a huge ranking was published and the Chef dominates many legends…
Incredible player, exceptional shooter and outstanding leader of men, Stephen Curry has all the qualities required to be one of the best of all time. However, he has often been accused of not being present enough during the most important matches. In fact, the word “clutch” has rarely been used to describe the Chef, and sometimes quite unfairly.
Last season, for example, he scored around fifty points in Game 7 against Sacramento and carried the Warriors in a decisive match. After such a performance, we can only wonder if the criticisms about him are so deserved after all. Some of his memorable shots have remained in the minds of many observers…
Steph Curry at the top of an incredible ranking!
When we talk about incredible shots or clutches, it’s hard not to remember the words of Mike Breen. Considered the GOAT of commentators, he often rewarded us with his “Bang!” » when he witnessed a huge shot. Recently, a ranking of the number of times he yelled this signature word came out, and Stephen Curry is at the top:
Mike Breen is one of the greatest play-by-play broadcasters in all of sports. His iconic catchphrase, “Bang!”, is used occasionally during a clutch shot, tough shot, a heat check, etc.

Obviously, all this needs to be qualified since Mike Breen did not comment on the same number of matches for everyone. With the various epics of the Warriors, he often had the opportunity to watch the Chief play and therefore shouted “Bang” 41 times on his shots, not bad for a player considered not very decisive. He is well ahead of Klay Thompson and his 28, while no one else exceeds 10. Not Kevin Durant, not LeBron James, not James Harden… The Chef is in another galaxy!
For fun, we can remember this crazy one evening in February 2016. Bang, bang:
"Curry, way downtown. Bang! Bang!"
5 years ago today, Steph Curry did this to the Thunder:46 PTS
14/24 FG
12/16 3PT
1 38-FOOT GAME WINNER

41 “Bang” is still not nothing. Stephen Curry is perhaps a little more clutch than people try to make you believe and therefore easily dominates this prestigious ranking. And it must be said, we never tire of these cult moments during which he sends a warhead from the parking lot…
