Why is Curry so difficult to defend at the age of 37? A technique that distinguishes him from Jokozan

Many fans may be puzzled why Curry's ordinary physical talent is still so difficult to defend at the age of 37. Curry is still able to average 24.5 points per game this season, ranking 11th in the league in scoring. In addition, he still shot 39.7% of his three-point shooting percentage. It seems that Curry's condition shows no sign of a significant decline. Many fans even believe that Curry can play in the league for another five years.

Why did it debut almost at the same time as Curry, and why did Westbrook and Harden decline so quickly? In fact, it is ultimately because Curry has a skill that differentiates him from many superstars, and even from top super giants like Jordan, Kobe and James. This technique allows him to score freely at the age of 37, which is his top off-ball ability.

There are many stars in the league who have excellent ball-holding skills. They have very top ball-holding and singles skills, but there are many players who do not have excellent ball-out abilities. There may be only a few people who are top-notch with ball ability and without ball ability, and Curry is the most outstanding representative. For example, although Thompson is very good at off-ball, his ability to hold the ball is not outstanding.

The ability to be without ball should be detached from two perspectives. These two angles are running ability and receiving and shooting ability. If you have excellent catching and shooting skills but not running skills, you are not a top off-ball master. The most valuable thing about Curry is that he can run continuously throughout the game, and his physical fitness can make many opponents surrender. More importantly, his catch and shoot extremely fast, which is the main reason why he has opened the gap with other players. There are many top players in history who are out of the ball, such as Ray Allen, Redick or Korver, etc. However, their shooting speed is significantly different from Curry, which is why their accuracy is not as accurate as Curry.

In general, Curry's strong off-ball ability is the main reason why he can still have explosive scoring at this age. Because Curry is currently 37 years old, his ball-holding offensive ability has indeed declined very significantly. Because his change in the process of holding the ball is not as flexible as his youth, it is difficult to create too much shooting space. Therefore, the ability to run without a ball has become a magic weapon for Curry, and it is difficult to crack this magic weapon. Because the Warriors have a strong system to support Curry and have good cover quality. That's why Curry is still the top scorer in the league at the age of 37. Maybe he can still play like this when he is 40 years old.
