- During Stephen Curry's junior season at Davidson, Loyola Maryland made national news by playing a triangle-and-two with both players chasing around Steph at all times. Footage of the game is nowhere to be found on the internet... Until now! The video breaks down that infamous game and how Loyola held Steph to zero points -- but lost by 30

No idea how this showed up in my suggestions, but it was really cool, your voice isn't annoying like most basketball youtubers, and it was well done. Gave you a like and subscribed.

You get a like and sub from me just because you actually did some real journalism by just calling the source. Good for you man! Nice vid

This was probs the most relaxing game Curry had, lol. Just standing there and still winning - all because the opposing team was scared of his mere presence. 😂😂😂
That's my kinda game
They would have lost either way. The coach just prefered to let the other guys beat him than have one guy go for 40.
@@cmoney1928 imagine if every college team decided to do that to Steph, Would he have even made the NBA?
@@persistentlypathetic6820 Tbh, if every team was so scared of a single man so much they doubled teamed him at all times, that probably speaks more volume than him dropping 30+ every other night

Wife: How was the game?
Coach: Well, we didn't let Steph score a single point.

People say Curry is great because of his range. But I think he is truly great because of his selflessness. His ego is so secure that he never has to "prove" himself. Just look at the years when KD was in the Warriors.
He's truly a special player almost beyond measure. Blows m mind when people say Giannis is bettter than this guy
@@bullettomy7thheart People always like to compare, even some nonsense like apples to oranges.
Totally agree...I'm gonna expose myself for a second here. I played in the post in highschool. We faced a team who decided they would double me with both post guys whenever the ball got sent in to me. If I caught the ball in the high post...this literally meant my teammate on the low block was left wide open. I made that pass 3-4 times... But then I got annoyed... I was the leading scorer... I hadn't got a shot up in the game yet. So with my big ass highschool ego I caught the ball and immediately rose up and took the shot before the second defender could come over. Missed the shot. Then the rest of the game then only soft doubled me. If I got the ball on the low block they would send someone at me but they completely stopped doubling me where they would send the other big at me no matter what. Then it hit me...they scripted the whole game plan to make me do that. They were gonna do it until I got frustrated and made a selfish play. Realizing that messed with my head way more than them actually executing that plan... The fact that, as their superstar player, Curry was fine with standing in the corner and doing nothing is effing amazing.
@@odonnellcaleb Appreciate your sharing.
He’s great for being off ball but still doubled. He even made plays while being tripled.
This is an amazing example of how a superstar can affect the game without ever touching the ball. Steph has incredible gravity.
Most legendary off-ball play xD.
@@kobediamantevlogs5608 🤣🤣 good one
He didnt impact it, it was a dumbass coach ...
Best ever by everyones standards in 10 years
He's has the basketball version of the King Engine from One Punch Man
It’s a reason why this game footage was so hard to find. This is the most embarrassing film ever for Loyola’s coach. His life
Lmao they really put 2 people on this man. You know somebody was gambling. You just know.
@@WarriorsFanSince-ur3zu They would’ve slapped them anyway. They tried it as a Hail Mary. Maybe this all time great scorer will force it.
@@WarriorsFanSince-ur3zu i wonder how much the coach made for keeping curry under 10. or some such prop bet
Nah this is the coach's biggest accomplishment. NBA coaches have been inspired to adopt similar strategies to contain this monster
@@JL-fh4qw nobody has ever played this ridiculous version of triangle and two on steph except this coach.
He probably made a decent chunk for keeping curry scoreless, but that is his legacy.
i find it most impressive that steph was content to taking a back seat in this game to let his team win without caring about getting the ball. true leadership right there
Thats what he did for Durant.
True leader👑

@@ochinchin6637 man of culture
Bc it’s about winning lol this wasn’t a normal thing. Fine double me the whole game at least my team wins
Imagine having a reputation for being SOOOOOOOO good at shooting (IN COLLEGE mind you) that you demanded a permanent double team for an entire game. Only Steph man, he really was an amazing shooter, and such a selfless attitude to embrace any role he is given. This is why he'll have a place in this league for a long time.
When they gave him what he wanted. That was when he won.
lol, why are you phrasing this as if he isn't already a 2 time nba mvp and a 33 year old who's best nba years are behind him 😂.
Jason Williams at duke could probably have demanded this as well.
what do you mean was? he's gonns tear through the league when klay gets back... dude averaged 32 with no other all star scoring option.. imagine when klay gets back
@@Elit3Energy behind him? he never averaged 32 and was in pace to break his own 3 point record AGAIN. now with klay back defenses can rarely double or triple team him watch him average 30 or 31 again this year... 2016 and 2021 scoring titles. in between are the kd years and the injury year. all I'm gonna say you keep underestimating the dude and he keeps proving everyone wrong
The coach didn’t care about winning this game. He just hated Curry 😂
More like respected him
Lol
That’s the most respect a coach will ever give a player. No one has ever been guarded this way in nba history
LeBron entered the group chat
@@dracoac4227 has a team gave a game just to lock down bron?
box and one, triangle and two, no player ever had this type of attention on him, so insane
@oo70mar at what level you are talking? Cause Steph had a box and one on the nba finals, but anyways, Wilt was insane as well
@oo70mar I mean teams still left Kevin Durant wide open to guard Steph so...
@oo70mar That's false. Show Ⓜ footage
@oo70mar And yes even with kd on the team he drew double teams a bunch of times
@oo70mar read my last reply again, then come back to me lol
Idk why this doesn’t have more views. We literally get a never before seen film of that everyone knows about.
It was literally posted 1 week ago on a channel with less than 40k subs…

And it has 250k views already. I wish someone like jxmyhighroller (?) uploaded a video on this topic tho
@@calamorta Yeah lol. I honestly didn’t even know about this game or channel 🤣. Showed up on the algorithm though
So that’s why he’s so good at dealing with double teams. It’s been a thing since college 😂
2008 was my Freshman year at Loyola, I still talk about this game with my friends to this day. Jimmy Patsos is a legend who was best known for getting ejected and throwing his tie into the stands. After the game, I heard he was quoted in saying something like "I'm a basketball historian, are people going to remember we lost by 30, or held an all time great to 0 points?"
😂😂😂... I love the quote. It's either genius or stupidity.
as it turned out, BOTH remembered while making him looking like a clown LOL
@@xbno1 Not really. It would have been any other unknown game if he hadn't done that. The only reason this video has 2mill views is because Steph didnt score a point. So I guess he got what he wanted.
Steph evolved so much that triple and quad teaming him, even switching the lights off just to stop him didn't matter.
He's a scoring champion while being guarded like a criminal.
Stop 🛑 he ain't that great he ain't even the best player on the warriors if I recall the small forward for them has always won MVP in the finals
@@gustavopena7300 Finals MVP doesn’t matter in this case, everything OP said was still true.
@@HypocritesExposd he barely did anything in the finals wym
@@HypocritesExposd finals MVP goes to the best player on the team contributing the most curry has how many rings and no finals MVP he can't handle a triple team let alone a good double team
@@gustavopena7300 and you don't know basketball
Love how the Loyola coach stuck to the defensive plan thinking there's no way a scorer like Steph would be content with just standing in the corner and being the decoy for most of the game, but Steph is just that selfless, if they were going to let his teammates eat 4v3 the entire game then so be it.
It's all about creating a new pattern.
Even when curry don’t touch the ball he still deserves the MVP thats crazy
This is what I love about Steph. He wasn't phased, he wasn't angry or unhappy that he couldn't score. He was just happy he helped his team win, by any means necessary.
Just like in game 5.
That's a good point, Booker would have been pissed lol
This what makes Curry a special Leader. Bro didn’t panic or try to figure out a way to force his buckets, Just simply said I’ll stand in the corner and let other’s eat. maaaaan he don’t care how he gets the W as long as he gets the W. a Real team player and Unselfish leader/Superstar.
What I love about Steph is that he's the most excited person in the building when Klay goes off. Nobody was cheering harder during the 37 point quarter. Truly an all-timer in so many ways.
When as a coach, you double a guy to keep him from controlling the game, you're still allowing him to control the game.
Never knew this, when I was a kid I used to think if only somebody could shoot 3s so well that they can outscore efficient 2s. Curry became that guy.
Steph must be laughing from the back of his mind. Hahah. I think he is also proud of himself that he got this attention hahaha

It’s amazing. U could package that game tape and show it to every aspiring star at the high school level. Ask them, what’s more important? Your numbers or the win?
100% agree, this is one of the best Steph Curry stories I've ever seen. His scoring tandems and highlight plays are fantastic in their own way by showing how dominant he is as a player, but this story speaks volume to his character since it shows how he truly prioritizes winning over everything else and is willing to sacrifice his numbers if it means his team will have a better chance to win.
@@caqaf73 and the morons will still talk about his lack of numbers in all his Finals appearances. “He’s garbage! Couldn’t even shake all those triple teams and opponents constantly pushing and grabbing him!”
@@caqaf73 or it shows that he has always had good teammates and thats why he wins

I really respect the fact that you went out of your way to find more footage of this game 🙌🙌🙌

Steph has to be one of the most paid attention to opposing players ever in the history of basketball. Awesome video and footage btw!
Imagine combining one of the deadliest ball handlers and catch and shoot player of all time. Really cant take your eye of him any time.
We played Jalen Suggs in hs and we did the box and one defense while our closest defender played the gap 😂 thats almost like this but he still scored 20 plus lol
@@Dakiller1243 he isnt one of the "Deadliest ball handerlers" of all time but a great shooter but more to the point of a great space creator.

@@Dakiller1243 you are a crackhead if you are seriously saying wardell stephen curry the second is as good a dribbler as kyrie, john Stockton is a better dribbler, stephen curry is a great SPACE CREATOR, not DRIBBLER, there 2 very different things.
I can’t even get a permanent double team in NBA 2K!
Stephen Curry is truly special!!
I can't believe I see this kind of defense, even MJ i think did not experience those kind of defense. Steph is really extraordinary player.
Pretty sure that would have been illegal defense back then during the rules of the 80s-90s NBA when you weren't allowed to play zone.
It's not embarrassing for Steph for zero points, it's more embarrassing for Loyola to do this and still lost.
huh, did you expect other result? techically they were playing 4 on 3 for the whole game time, of course they didn't have a chance to win.
Coach's words at the end of the video shows us the main idea: not to outscore opponent via this defense, but make Steph give up and start doing sh*t
Well obviously they lost. It's a bad strategy and if they won then everyone would do this.
The other teammates actually could do stuffs (Despite having one man advantage). Imagine if they were unable to score then Loyota would have won
@@JayJay-wf2oe naa no body will imagine that since it’s a D1 school. Irrespective of D, this ain’t call of duty like game where if one drops out others can carry, its reality bruh come on now 🤦🏽♂️
@@JayJay-wf2oe You've just described the whole meaning of the game lol: whoever can't score - loses)
Imagine double teaming curry all game and still losing by 30 😹
its not so surprising knowing that they played 4v3 with steph and his 2 guards watching on the sidelines
Still happens every now and then.
@@grega3611 I mean it happens on a couple possessions, but the whole game is a different story.
@@francisjimenez6367 true true, but at that point they should’ve stopped double teaming and play 5v5, the 4v3 obviously didn’t work
I forgot all about this I respect steph so much for this he legit was in the corner eating popcorn all game 😂😂
This is plain evidence of the greatness of Steph, shown here in his selflessness. Many other superstars would try to force it just to volume-score some, whereas Steph basically took himself out of the game to give his team a permanent 4 v 3 advantage all game. Darn...
I mean, he was probably just laughing. It's not really selfless, he's being paid to jog up and down whilst his team easily secures victory.
@@holliswilliams8426 you can call it selfless if you compare it to star players who go out and play to score 20+ points every night.
@@holliswilliams8426 It was in college. He wasn't getting paid
@@catman-du8927 Exactly this Bozo 🤣
You know you’re a somebody when the box and one is on you
Funny...Steph continues to have the same exact impact on the Warriors to this day. The mere fact he's on the court, spreads the defense like no other player in the league.
great players hyper perform when their team needs them most. Legendary players sacrifice for the team when even hyper performance is not enough. in team sport, its awesome to win but there is no glory in winning alone when your team losses.
its amazing that Steph figured this out in college! most pros will not figure this out their whole lives!
Tell that to the superhero named STATPADWestbrook.
@@bamboo7714 but. hes never won a ring. so i think westbrook falls into the first part if his statement
Abosulutely @tetraset KELLY OUBRE cant relate on this 😂
Opposing teams made Steph Curry a magnet pulling everybody to guard him leaving his teammates free to shoot. Curry cannot be stopped scoring for this guy is a gifted basketball player.
love Steph Curry's selflessness
It happens again in this season. Steph Curry is the one and only player that experienced that. Just take care and god bless Steph. I admire you a lot.
You have the best basketball content man. Keep it up !
This is where steph started working on his golf stance..
Greatest teammate ever
Great breakdown. I have never ever seen a triangle and two when the two are guarding the same person, and probably won’t see it again
What I like is how he checks his ego. My guy said. I'll just stand in a corner and let the others win the game.
The Loyola head coach, Jimmy Patsos, actually took Loyola to the tournament a few years later (2012). A big feat, they’ve only made it like once in the last 25 years. He was assistant under Gary Williams (an underrated great IMHO) at Maryland during the 2002 national championship. Patsos certainly had some wild quotes as a head coach. I think he was a DC bartender for years before coaching.
He should have just stood on the "NIT" logo....and made the two stand out there with him.
If they get off him....then Steph pisses off the Loyola coach with a 30ft three pointer. LOL
This was GREAT, good work bro !!!
Steph really CHANGED the game of basketball FOREVER! Go Warriors and Steph Curry!
So what's it called in the previous season when 3 people would be triple teaming steph? the line and 3?
It’s called “The Warriors 2021 Season”
next tactic would be dot and 4
@@Jack.Chogii 🤣🤣
@@Jack.Chogii after that we gotta have air and 5 on Steph
Too bad I can no longer continue with this trend because air and 5 is the max, lol.
you have inspired me to watch more games. thank you for helping me bring back my old 2013 game watching mentality.
This happened to me when I was playing this year in Belgium… teams heard I was averaging 30ppg and so from the opening tip, I was being face guarded with a hand in my face while walking up the court… the entire game a hand in my face wherever I was. Anytime I got the ball it was immediate double team, I literally felt like Steph curry.
I remember a team did this to us in highschool to stop our top Guard Arike Ogunbowale scoring. The second half we had her stand at half court and 4v3 them for an entire quarter before they gave up 😂😂😂
Dude Is truly a legend 👏
Such a great video man, good job!!
Coming from GM’s interview, great great videos, please keep producing these nice content.
man thats legendary, you're so lucky you got that footage man
I was hoping Curry would run one direction then quickly reverse in the opposite direction to see if the two defenders would collide into each other.
Lmfaooo..... I was hoping for that, too.
The editing so so good and helpful to follow everything, thanku :D
Super cool that you resurrected this archive footage by reaching out to the school. Mad props for that, nice work!
6:33 i laughed so much at this, imagine being behind the ball and being guarded by 2. Im not gonna say its a bad play but come on 😂

More than a decade later it's still he same, teams now triple or even quadruple team him. He puts the fear of God in teams
At that time, little did they know that Steph would be the greatest offensive weapon of all time. He literally changed the game.
then you u clearly havent seen his recent games
@@ninjedi6710 saw his recent games and he just finished spanking the DPOY and the Celtics
This is why he moves so well off ball now, it neutralizes defense like this most nights
Weak ankles Steph was a monster, but once he got his muscle up it was over for everybody 😂
Curry with contact was actually more lethal
love this video ! good music too :) deeply appreciated !
Very nice video and production bro! Very enjoyable!
Gotta love it when coach wasn't sure what to do, Steph had confidence his team could beat them 4 on 3 so let go for it.
I think the strategy would've worked better if they only kept the double on curry for the beginning of the game, so he didn't get a good start. Then his teammates would be more relaxed because they're not being guarded as much. Then suddenly, switch back to man to man. If Curry gets hot, rinse and repeat.
thanks for reaching out and making this vid!
Great work brother
I see that people have been recognizing Steph's greatness even when he was in high school but they are having a hard time acknowledging it.... I wonder why...
Curry has to add double team to his practice routine 😂
Ong
Nice video, it is nice to see such rare footage
I love the old footage of you getting the box and 1 lol. Same thing happened to me.
Cut to last year, doubled the entire year and still led the league in scoring
It’s because of odds the coach bet that curry will not score any point. 😂
Lol, only logical reason behind continuing this defence for whole game
If Steph hits that first jumper the coach just walks out the door into the ocean
5:34 and 5:50 of this video is what separates Steph from all the greats. To know ones power and do what is right for the team to win. This is who he was then, and still who he is today. For this, we (any fan of basketball, ever) say thank you.
😂 thoowing in ur own hs highlights is crazy I love it
Kind of makes me laugh as I recall my high school team doing this for a particularly good opponent in high school. Funny thing was it contributed to a win for us. Was and is a great memory to date.
I have scenes games that show especially in the 2018 and 2019 games. up to five people surrounding Steph one time. I’ve never seen any other superstars receive two defenders during most of a game let alone 5 defenders at any time. How good of a scorer would they be if those odds were against them. I hope you can find those videos and share them.
Thanks for this. It’s hilarious.
Who else is watching this after the Warriors beat the Raptors and Steph was held to 12 points but Poole & Wiggins got 33 & 32?
That coach was ahead of his time, he knew from the get go that Curry is un-guardable. Look at the NBA teams doing now.
Steph's selflessness was ultimately why the defense didn't work 8:20
Great video. Very unique compared to most NBA videos
Awesome UA-camr investigation segment, keep up the good work
Do you think this tactic could be effective sometimes at the high school level when facing a team that has one very good player, but not much else?
You would have to have some superb defensive players to be able to hold off a 3v4, not to mention be able to rebound still with one person permanently not boxed out
yeah if you're team is shit and have no defender
yeah if the rest of the team really does suck
No its really stupid. Just double team them when they the ball.
There is no need to play 4 on 3.
It depends on who on the team, just have to leave the one that been the least effective some space
Do some breakdown of your high school playing days?
Great video
I coached in the Mississippi private school leagues back in the '90s. We had a point guard whose penetration ability was close to unstoppable at that level. He ended up playing college at Southeastern Louisiana. He was double teamed all game once. He was not a great outside shooter. I put him in one of the low corners - sometimes even a high corner to clear the double team from the action. The defenders stayed with him.
We ran 4 against 3 always starting the action with a ball screen on the foul line defender. Screener rolled to the basket to draw/step inside one baseline defender while the freed ballhandler penetrated to draw the other baseline defender. The other two players either made basket cuts, stepped out away from the lane to spot up for 12 footers,' or slid along the perimeter on the ball side of the court with the dribble penetrator. The triangle and two alignment simply could not cover the actions. The offense worked extremely well.
This is the funniest thing I've seen all week🤣🤣🤣The entire game though smh
Can't even shade them for this tactic because currently it isn't uncommon to see Steph with a consistent minimum double team. We have seen him with double, triple, and quadruple team situations but it's gotten so ridiculous that he had been quintuple teamed sometimes 😂🤷🏾♀️ the man is built different 🦅
He has never been quintuple teamed. Just stop.
Double team when he gets the ball. Not doubles OFF the ball 😂
Great to see some of our high school clips
Excellent video
Is there anyway we can see footage of the whole game somewhere? Can you post it on Reddit or somewhere? It would be cool to watch the whole thing, strange game

That’s why he’s a 4 time champion. For Steph “team” is always first. This would explain why you become star when you play with Steph and why KD was FMVP in 2017, 2018!
Steph is the greatest 3 shooter of all time and he probably always will be from now on. Wilt Chamberlain used to have all 5 defenders collapse in on him just so he could still score anyways. I believe Wilt is the greatest player ever, but I feel very lucky to actually be alive to see the greatest 3 shooter of all time, and to see him take his mantle as such along with other greats like Wilt Chamberlain, Russel, Robertson, Kareem, Magic, Dr. J, Jordan, Kobe, and others is epic.
For me, wilt was great but he was also taller than most people. Would he dominate if he was of average height?
@@denniszenanywhere This is a dumb question lol would MJ be able to dunk from the free throw line if he was 5'11"? no. does that mean anything? no
Lmao similar to last season. Steph averaging 32 ppg, teams' main focus was to double and triple team, just about anything to stop steph. The difference? Steph had draymond green.
And thats a good thing?
@@tigera6 lol idk
Yes, Draymond is a smart passer so he will create something after Steph passes from double team.
No the difference is, he STILL WON THE SCORING TITLE, STEPH, is NOT too ten, or the goat, Noooooo Steph Curry is " THE GRANDMASTER OF BASKETBALL, he's sits ALONE, a 6 foot 3, Master, that embarrass players, that are bigger, stronger, more Athletic, n taking on EVERY team's best defenders two or three at a time, FOR YEAR'S, n still can't be STOPPED,,, GRANDMASTER STEPH CURRY....💯💯💯💯💯
