How many career highs did Stephen Curry set tonight? That’s what I thought. Checkmate, Warriors bandwagoners. Frank Kaminsky – 1 Stephen Curry – 0. Hold this L.
I’m gonna be honest, I don’t even know what “Hold this L” means but people keep commenting it on my vids so I thought I’d try to be hip and cool and say it also. I’m sorry.
Anyway, this is a nice display of Kaminskgod’s all-around game. He hits some threes, he hits some post-up-type stuff in the paint, he hit a nice turnaround jumper, he even managed to abuse Anderson Varejao with that spin move he does from the three-point line. I think Varejao is the last defender remaining in the NBA who that move would work on, but I’ll take it. I love that move when Giannis does it, and it’s even better when Kaminsky does it.
The hype-train for Kaminsky may have derailed in a fiery explosion after his lackluster rookie season, but there are still a few survivors, me among them, scavenging the twisted metal looking for remnants of hype. And look what I found! A primo nugget of almost pure hype, easily convertible into a 2-minute long distillation of Kaminsky’s best performance as a pro.
