10 years later steph curry still gets asked for ID at the bar
zero I get asked for my ID at movies and I'm 23.
LMAO and at chucky cheese too
zero, As a 31-year old Asian guy, bartenders always ask me for ID. I remember onece I left my driver license home and the bartender said "How can I know if you're over 18?" I was like "WTH?" But it was so funny. All my friends laughed at me so badly that night.
Jie Zhang I’m sure they did virgin
grow a beard and they will stop asking for ID
Listen... This man scored 44 ... of his team's 78 points... Bro. That is crazy
Steph was the only shooter on that Team.
Davidson, is not a great basketball team Curry was literally the only good player they had.
@@Toph.Beifong. still he hauled them to the elite 8 lmao
carried the entire school.
its so lucky that Davidson still has a basketball team when Steph left....
3:34 Russ to KD : "Can't believe we're gonna blow a 3-1 lead against this guy"
😂
BRUH!
@w h y Klay took those games over. Remember.
@@dologongpoloponobonotongpo235 "... and the refs and the baby eating pedophile vampires who fix games and rule the world have his"..... there.... finished it for ya.
KD word bubble "I wonder if I could trade Russell for this Curry guy."
Blake Griffin looks like an auto-generated 2K player
I agree😂😂
Ahhhhhhahhh lmaoooo I'm dead Ahhhhhhahhh
Ain’t that Rasist ya bish!!!
We call those DEFAULTS lol
Camaro Vlogs raaist bish
The fact that Steph was avg 31 ppg and 10 apg is RIDICULOUS
Not in college it's not
@@meatloaf6107 no one ever averages that much in college you dummy
Especially on a team with no other real threats
Cuz that’s steph
@@meatloaf6107 It ABSOLUTELY is. No one has ever averaged that, and closest has been Trae Young. Averaging 30 is hard enough - averaging 10 assists in college is next to impossible. The highest apg ever is still only 7.68
Kevin Durant was plotting since back then 😂😂😂
So was Lebron 😂😂😂
@@xTnT87 how was LeBron plotting? Tf
@@lmit1593 He went to multiple Curry games in college and even invited him to his house lol
L Mit lmao errbody went to go see steph play.”, so the whole league was plotting according to u 😭
Silly you
Okay so I guess no one is going to talk about the fact that Blake was averaging 22 and 19 on 85% shooting
Dutt Reacts Don‘t call yourself „no one“. Have some confidence.
😉
NPC #378827 People calling Zion the next Lebron like no every future NBA players looks like that in college! NBA is miles above college ball.
This was '08, people were talking about it then. I don't think anybody cares now.
bet it was mostly dunks and layups that boosted his fgp
He was a giant
Kevin Durant checking out his future teammmate
FP yea lmao
FP Hi
hopes he leaves gsw and go detroit
Greson DCruz no
Greson DCruz I’m from Detroit and come on nah be real 😂😂
Blake Griffin, class act same goes for Steph Curry. Decent people know that you don't ever have to tear someone down to build yourself up. If your opponent played a great game, say "He played a great game" instead of "I'm number one." Hats off to both these guys
3:34
Westbrook: Yo man we should get that dude Curry.
Durant: Yeah... Curry, it would be nice to play with him🤔
Gold, man😂
“This is what we call foreshadowing”
They got harden instead, pretty good consolation prize.
Durant: We?
This is why Steph curry dropped 51 points the night after Blake dropped 50
Nick Bailey good luck
so?
2 baby faced,assassins.
Griffin did 50 points total including OVERTIME period.
Curry did 51 in just 3 quarters!!!
@suppmada Does it matter?
Could Blake shoot 3 from 30 ft while having a timeout and decides not to use it, Curry way downtown.... BANG! BANG! OHHH WHAT A SHOT FROM CURRY!
KD and Westbrook in the crowd too! !!!!!!! Holy shit!!! crazy moment
T.M. Dubb yep I remember watching this game lol
Funny thing is Westbrook is younger than Curry but already in the NBA.
@@dopefresh6231 ya cuz curry stayed in college till junior year
and Uncle Jeff Green too
@@ADAJ3KINGANGEL lmao he does look like *that* uncle
Man Curry legit went from carrying a high school team to the elite 8 to carrying a g-league team to the nba 8th seed man was inspirational from the get go...
Crazy how much Steph increased the speed of his jumper after he got stronger. Most players slow it down for more control but somehow he became the shooter he is doing the opposite. Best shooter ever, and it’s not close.
Yes release is way quicker his body is more cut he just improved on everything
Curry's stats were like THAT in college? Why did people count this guy out all the way to 7th pick?!?!
John Le Cos 3 pointers weren’t a thing in the NBA until Curry made them a thing.
John Le he was small and weak and shooting wasn’t that big same reason trae was 3rd pick
Michael Collins they were a thing lol. steph was small and wasnt a good ball handler. putting uo numbwrs in college doesn’t mean much
He was too small and skinny. He shot up last minute in height and put on a lot of weight his rookie year
Probably because of his school.
Steph is shooting 47% FROM 3PT.....damn that's insane
And Blake 85% FG... crazy stuff
@@SquirtleGangAllDay hell yeah with damn near 20 rebounds.....ridiculous
College 3 was easy for steph
More like 47% from 50 feet.
He's shooting 49% from 3 right now btw
Damn with that stat line I could see why Blake went number 1 but if they only knew what that number 7 pick would turn into...
The best shooter ever of all time and a top 4 pg in league history
Thank Mark Jackson for that
@@hotdogmalaki5781
Don Nelson drafted Curry and he said he would have taken him #2 overall that year.
@@KhangNguyen-bl3xc Top 4 position wise is a stretch. Maybe Top 8-10. In terms of a pure scoring PG though, yeah I could probably see him in a Top 4
Mr. Jish I'd put curry as #1 in terms of pure scoring as guys like Nash, Magic, Stockton etc were all pass first. You are severely underrating steph saying he isn't top 4
Steph looks the exact same. Blake looks like hes 15
Ben Simmons good luck bro I hope I win ROY I got competition
Get a jumpshot you newb
jumpshot simmons jumpshot dont worry bout vids on youtube, GET A JUMPSHOT
KD’s New Burner Account shit got old in june. Find a new joke, that ones covered in dust
Gamer/Tech Vidz if i had a dollar for every time some unfunny person replied that on one of my comments trying to be funny, id be half way to a million dollars.
In college: Curry from WAYYY deep.
In NBA: Curry makes closest outside shot of his career.
Jordan McGinnis 😂 ppl don’t get this one
I get it.
In college: From Wayyy Deep.
In Nba: From WAYYY DOWNTOWN!!!!.
in college: Curry from wayyy deep
in nba: Curry from the parking lot
Can we talk about what beasts they were? 44 points for curry and Griffin had 21 rebounds!
Wow. KD been planning to leave to Russ and join Curry since 2008!!
Facts
3:33 my man said Kevin Durant and "company" 😭😭😭 even back them Russ couldnt get no love
He was still a rookie then lol
Im weeeaakk lmao
Lol
That was Russ rookie year bro. Wtf yall saying?
@@alexsaenz128 Russ was picked fourth, earlier than Curry went next year
This was the moment when Kevin Durant knew he had to team up with Stephen Curry🤣
BostonSportsFan He was stuck between the Clippers and the Warriors, but then this video showed up in his recommendation and that gave him his answer...
@@elvvlogs1261 hisSSSsssSSssSSSss
Fuck Durag he aint no baller.
they both look like great players, hope they make it in the NBA
🤫delete this
At least one of them did.
@@kimking5928 What
@@Thunderboy-2000 Where is Blake Griffin?
@@kimking5928 He’s on the Brooklyn nets
Averaging 31 ppg and 9.5 assists in college is insane! So is 18.5 Rebounds per game for Blake!
10 years later Steph is a 3 time nba champion 2 time mvp 5 time all star and blake is just another 5 time all star
@WeekndAtBernieZ fr tho
just another? yeah cause everyone in the league is an all star.. it's nothing right?
@@DatOneGuy901 He didn't mean it like that.
DatoneGuy it really is nothing considering it’s mostly a popularity vote.
Blake also got rookie of the year to his name. His career hasnt been bad. Finished 3rd in MVP voting 1 time too.
Imagine having 44 points out of 78 of your team score
Curry must have hurt his back carrying his team
If only Westbrook knew then that Kd would leave him for that little dude
you mean blake griffin 😂
Of these two- Steph is and was always special but who would have ever guessed he would be the one to change the game forever in his image
Both players went on to play in the NBA!!! Amazing
Curry's last college game was almost Blake's last college game, too, that is kind of crazy.
Did Curry get hurt after this? Idr
@@StaySqueezy12 nah but they both got drafted the same year 2009 draft blake went #1 overall and curry went 7th
Not really thats just how time works.
@@joeseward9466 lol like weren't they in the same draft
@@hedrickoYO yeah
I want Blake's hairline lmao! So funny his brother Taylor looked almost identical besides the hairline.
Imagine picking JOHNNY FLYNN over STEPHEN CURRY
who
@@justinching1094 Exactly his point
Timberwolves had two picks in a row before the Warriors that year.
Timberwolves had the 1st round 5th & 6th pick and the Warriors had the 1st round 7th pick and.....
Timberwolves selected Ricky Rubio and Johnny Flynn...
Warriors selected Stephen Curry...
Basically, the Timberwolves need a guard and these were the top three choices at the time. Timberwolves had two chances to draft Curry, and while Ricky Rubio turned out ok and made a name for himself, most ppl have never heard of the college sensation that was the Syracuse guard, who looked like the next John Wall, which was Johnny Flynn.
@@godspeedgideon9178 I also don't know who this Johnny Flynn is
Kevin Durant was like "this man is gonna give me 2 rings soon in the future" 😅😅
Blake averaged 18.5 boards a game? Jesus.
Wow this Curry guy is pretty decent. I'm sure he'll have a great NBA career if hes drafted🌝
This is in 2008. Currys already in the NBA.

@@baklavaconsumer1080
Not my fault you guys are ignorant.
Pat L you buffoon
Pat L ofc someone doesn’t get the joke
Steph curry transformed from amature to superstar. So happy that warrior picked him over blake and probably the best draft pick in nba
blake was #1. warriors didnt have a choice
Don’t let Steph’s greatness distract from the fact that Blake Griffin is a really really really good basketball player.
shabazz360 *was
@@SavvyMon4 is*
Yet Curry's got the rings.....
Young Love yeah because curry had a superteam
@@jimbrown7891 its not like they got superstars from other teams tho, they were only regarded as a superteam after they won championships
I didn’t see much Griffin college tape but now that I do.. I can’t believe anyone ever thought he was an unskilled player, I’ve never understood the hate he gets.
lob city kind of forced him into a rim slasher so his mid range suffered and due to all the hops he was doing got injured and lost what made him good
The fact that Steph was still making dudes dance & hitting deep 3's back then.. avg 31 ppg & 47% from 3.. how in the world was he not picked in the top 5
Because the Wolves franchise has 0 IQ and hasn't done anything significant after losing Garnett
@@janseanhernane3191 funny how wiggins became an all star as soon as bro got traded from the t wolves
KD had plans way back then
To me, Curry is the greatest college player I ever seen.
H1GHD3FF chistian lattener
@@peepah He didn't carry like Curry did.
Melo?
voodoochild346 still just watch how that kid did things . idk but curry is up there
JJ Reddick If We’re Talkin Basketball
I bet one of the scouting staff who said Curry wouldn't be star are feeling guilty right now.
3:34 kd and russ. Few years later Kd leaves russ to play with steph for a ring
3:34 --- Russ: "Cmon, don't leave bro"
20 RPG? DANG BLAKE
7th pick vs 1st pick
MVP and champion vs an All Star
@@danielvygodner6620 lol
@@danielvygodner6620 and also slam dunk champion
Daniel Vygodner it’d be pretty easy to be an mvp and champ. With 4 all stars on your team. Blake only had Chris Paul and deandre Jordan.
@@cianni3163 he was an all star and champ without kd or boogie. Seems like everyone forgets
Now Curry has solidified himself as an all time great while Griffin is a shell of his former self. How times a-change...
Drop That Curry Sauce On Em! GOAT status been on! Love ya Steph! Never be another Curry like him!
Stephen Curry
3 NBA Championships
2 MVPs
Best shooter of all time.
What can Blake really say?
dunk champion? lol
3:35 little did KD know he was going to win 2 rings, with the guy that wears number 30 for Davidson, not the guy hes sitting next to.
...and 10+ years later, the difference in their careers is insane..but neither one lost a bit of their talent.
KD thinking this boi gonna win me a ring someday
XChronicHash lol t series btw
This is called loosing a battle but winning the war. Curry was a much better career
Wild that Curry is now in his prime and Blake is on the cusp of being retired
3x Champ 2x MVP
How bout u Mr. Griffin?
its been awhile since ive watched curry in college. anyone that compared him and young is tripping curry was that much better in college
Griffin's hops in his hey day were insane.
look at baby steph chef look at curry and a young griffin of blake man so inspirational
Look at curry man, so inspirational
The 2009 draft class is ridiculous. 10 years later and 4 of the first 10 are still all stars. 2 of them are Steph Curry and James Harden, the first pick was Blake Griffin, and DeMar DeRozan is in there too.
Kd and russ checking out the guy who’d ruin their team in the future lmao
That was all OKC, they let Harden go as well. Durant, Westbrook, Harden on the same team... should have won a championship.
Blake has had a underrated career
College Steph reminds me so much of Steph today. I had no idea he was dropping 30 casually back in college
I read that some people said that Curry's burden was nothing against some college basketball star player like whose playing for Duke, Oklahoma, etc. But let's go back again, Curry's father is a former NBA Player, and although he is trying so hard to get to one of the best College he was still failed. After getting into Davidson, some people need to think that this guy's mentality will be nowhere to found, but what? he has carried the team into the final-4. You know that after getting into Davidson we also realize that this guy's chance for getting into the NBA is like only 1%. So Kudos to this Guy named Wardell Stephen Curry II for breaking all the odds against him!!!
Little did Kevin Durant know at this game is that he’d soon play second most important player on championship team next to one of the guys playing in this game
And that guy was not the one averaging 22 & 18.5 on 85% shooting.
4: Minnesota - Ricky rubio
5: Minnesota - Johnny Flynn
6: Golden State - Steph Curry
LOL
The fact that the twolves took 2 pg ahead of curry who was the 9 pick ptw is still insane
3:34 Little did Westbrook know that KD was gonna leave him for that college kid 😢😢
This is how great steph is ppl. Think of all the greats being injured n never came back 100 from it.. but steph been injured many times and he still beast
One will be a unanimous mvp, the other will do stand up. I wonder how many people would’ve bet their life savings on which would be which. Both amazing people that deserve respect
I could see the griffin guy becoming a role player in the nba. The curry kid won’t make it past his rookie year in the league.
yeah the curry guy looks like a bust and college is easier than nba
Curry is the best player in the NBA in shooting now amazing right. Cause of people like you who doubted him 😂
Author's _ constipated sister dude they commented that two days ago..smh
"Curry has played 10 seasons in the NBA" - *Pat L*

I watched this game and remember thinking Steph needs to get better handles... Hard work people!
KD looked a little too quiet y’all should’ve known he was up to something
Curry MEOAT
Most exciting of all time
UA-cams Algorithm steady providing me with content I never wanted, but definitely needed.
3:36 Durant knew what was coming 😂
Ppl going crazy for zion when blake was avg 22 and 19 on 85% shooting and had 20 and 20 in a hyped game like this...we really live in the moment as a whole
It's not the stats!
The way Zion does it creates the hype.
@@in-depthanalysis6751 blake had the same effect but maybe more hype even
@@wanaiobannon9833 blake wasnt 6'7 280 tho. Probably 6'10 260

“Kevin Durant and company, gotta be impressed.” How ironic 😂😂
Little did KD know he needed curry to win championships
3 championships, 2 league MVPs. Enough said.
Too light skin dawgs

Blake Griffin is about as light skin as Logic.
@@MrCHI2cool nah his dad is dark skinned. Logics is half black. Blake just got less melanin than he probably should have gentic wise.
WayTooLeetGaming , wtf you’re talkin about? Griffin is half white! His mom is Caucasian.
One dog, One goat
@@innoc3ntbystndr i know, but logic looks super white cause his dad is only half black. Blakes dad is fully black so he probably should look darker, but he probably got more of his moms genes.
Steph vs the college 3 pt line: the ultimate mismatch
Why does Blake Griffin's photo looks like a CG player in 2K? 0:07
these stats are so crazy 22/18 on 85% FG shooting…i don’t think y’all heard me. blake averaged 22 points, and 19 REBOUNDS PER GAME WHILST MAKING 85% OF HIS SHOTS. that’s not even crazier it’s the fact that curry nearly averaged a 31 pt double double ON 47% 3PT SHOOTING THESE GUYS WERE ACTUALLY CRACKED
Blake won a college game, Steph won 2 MVPs and 3 rings lol
Bay Area Blake won rookie of the year and the slam dunk contest don’t see the difference the too player are beasts
@@-demontime681 you dont see the difference between that and 2 MVPs and 3 championships?? Are you an idiot or just a blake fanboy??

NO one averages like that today anymore, They are a different breed
In spite of his talents, Curry is still humble. That's the difference.
Blakes pics lighting make him look like a 2k player.
2:23 Everyone was synced up
Durant knew then that this kid would help him win a ring
This my first time watching either of them play in college and I didn’t know Blake was such a savage 😂. True superstars. Wish I had good knees!
Two great players. Another reminder that basketball is a team sport.

Dawn 10 years !
junior rosas time doesn’t wait for anybody bro fuck lol
2:22 look at the bench they synced
random boi Exact same move and everything
Look at curry man.. Inspirational
Curry looking the same until now. Amazing to see how curry, griffin, russ and kd have evolved over time!!!!!
