Ibaka's reaction at the end like he's got some serious indigestion from some Curry that was just a little bit too spicy...
Great stuff as always, EA. Got all the feels flowing, especially with the original core 4 getting back together this season.
Are we taking nominations for other Greatest Steph Shots? If so, I submit the prequel to BANG BANG — the "AND. HE. GOT IT!" shot that crushed the souls of Memphis in the 2015 playoffs.
Situation, to jog the memory: Game 6 of the 2015 WC Semis — a series in which early on looked to many doubters like the end of the line for the upstart "jump shooting team" against the grit-and-grind Grizz. The baby Ws have gained the upper hand by Game 6, but lead by just 5 late in the 3rd Q in Memphis. Memphis has the ball and a chance to cut it to 2 or 3 going into the 4th quarter, with every expectation of forcing a Game 7 in Oakland. The call...
Green weaving...
Trying to get the shot up, no call that way...
Curry flings (flips?) it the other way...
AND. HE. GOT IT!
