Curry and Poole Are Some of the League's Best Shot Creators
There’s no doubt Steph Curry has a claim to the title of “best shot creator in the NBA” right about now. The numbers back it up, whether its statistics about stepbacks, pull-ups, unassisted field goals, you get the idea.
Check the eye test as well, and it’s pretty easy to tell he’s at the top of the list. The way he gets separation is unlike anybody else in the league. People attribute the game-changing separation moves to guys like James Harden and Jayson Tatum, but Curry was doing both of their signature moves before they added them to the repertoire.

Juan Toscano-Anderson provides a huge spark in Warrior's comeback win
The Warriors found themselves down 19 at one point in the first half of their Thanksgiving Eve game versus the Sixers.

He was by far the best Warrior off the bench as he finished with 13 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, along with 2 blocks, plus he made all six of his shots that he took.

Warriors Jump Lakers as Favorites to Win the West
The media bias for the Los Angeles Lakers is a little absurd. It’s been relatively clear from the off-season that this Lakers squad is not up to task. After a tough loss to the middling Knicks that sets them with a 9-10 record, even with LeBron James sitting, it should be obvious that this team is not playing inspired basketball. Meanwhile, you know who is? The Golden State Warriors.

Jordan Poole's Spot in the Race for MIP
As we approach the quarter-mark of the 2021-2022 NBA season, while things are not set in stone, there’s still plenty that we can infer: The Golden State Warriors are obviously good again, Steph Curry is obviously a perennial MVP candidate, and while there’s a clear frontrunner for Most Improved Player, we’ve still got 65 games of basketball left to play for another to take their place.
