Four championships, 2 MVPs and a Finals MVP later and Steph Curry still has “healthy insecurity” that keeps him in check. He sits down with his President and GM to break down just how he became the leader of a dynasty. Bob reveals the text that Steph sent Kevin Durant when the Warriors were recruiting him and they examine why Curry was able to handle the addition of KD. Steph admits why Mark Jackson’s praise early in his career “scared” him, and why he’s looking forward to life after basketball.

  • Been my favorite player for nearly 10 years now. The things he does on the court get increasingly insane every year
  • @Anika_30
    I became a fan of the sport of basketball because of Steph Curry. Never used to watch before, but I randomly stumbled on clips of him, and now I watch every game he plays in. Steph Curry is generational.
  • the admiration Myers has for Steph is remarkable. dude got teary eyed just talking about steps ethics and humanity. epic dude.
  • @tomas1565
    I hope more kids from this new generation can find the passion seeing that Steph is one of the faces of the NBA. I’m a grizzlies fan, but it is so admirable seeing his genuine passion for the game. It makes watching him even more enjoyable.

    This interview should be watched not by athletes who love sports or basketball, but kids in general. His character built him to be this great. His core value was set and cemented by his parents esp his mom that success and fame doesnt shake him.
  • Bob saying “yeah” non stop has got to be something Steph is used to. Shows you more of Steph’s patience because I would have had to say something 😅
  • This man is everything I saw when I'd watch Jordan as a kid . Except he's such a good person . He radiates so much positivity and humility . The greatest shooter weve ever seen but his drives to rim are out of this world . Like he wine he gets better as he ages . If this team meets expectations and kuminga and wiseman rise to the occasion ....these guys can win this year and possibly next . Steph definitely can win 2 of the next 3 years this one included .dub nation is coming . The champs will shut a lot of mouths these playoffs

    Among all the superstars. Steph always amazes me during interviews. He always says the right words which cannot be scripted. It means that he's genuinely that person. MJ is still the GOAT but Steph is the most inspiring and to me probably is the 2nd GOAT and without a doubt the best team mate of all time.
  • Describing Steph Curry with one word: Humble We need more humility in this world. It makes respect go round :)
  • You can tell he really admires Steph and is thankful for what he has done for the franchise

    My favourite player in the entire NBA,,, it’s really insane how he SC30 carries himself in and off the court. Such an inspiration..
  • My Idol. How he moves, How he handle himself and How he Inspire me with his work❤️❤️❤️❤️
  • Crazy this man impacted my life been watching him since 2007 both rep NC 💪🏾💯
  • "...to find peace in who they are...". Stephen Curry has all the things we crave as humans living in this time. Money, fame, talent... What makes him shine, though, is humbleness. I wish I learn and continue to live with that sort of humbleness in my life.
  • It's been 8 years since I started watching Steph, and I'm 15, my first ever favourite basketball player was MJ, but that's cause I didn't watch anyone else, as LeBron wasn't in contention for the GOAT spot at the time. MJ was the undisputed GOAT at the time, but I really enjoyed Steph's game and playstyle, he was so different, undersized and a light-weight to others at the time. I was intrigued by his story, so similar to mine. Me and him were injury prone, light weight and undersized, with an underdog mentality from the get-go, even now at 15. Back then (8 years ago or so) I was a good mid range shooter and a rookie in the game of basketball. I learnt from him, used his motivation to find my motivator, I became enthusiastic about the game of Basketball. Instead of him being just my favourite player, he made me love the whole league and become a fan of the warriors culture. Now I'm 15, still undersized at 5'5", but arguably the best shooter in my whole school and a Coach at the same time. I used to want to be like Curry and was inspired and still is, but now, because of his motivation, my talent makes kids in my school wanna be like me, I think about it, and it hits different. I still get criticised about my height and structure, but I'm a proud point guard, and I'm aiming to be an NBA Player. My IQ is improving, my mentality is a growth mindset and I am thriving to reach his level and impact the game of basketball like him, but in my way. All because of one man --------- "Stephen 'Baby Faced Assassin' Curry!!!!!!!"

    My favourite player ever and a great idol. His level of humble confidence and the ability to back it up is what I aspire to achieve one day
