Golden State Warriors: 3 goals for Stephen Curry in 2018-19
By James Siegle
2. Hit the 50-40-90 mark
The 50-40-90 club is among the NBA’s most coveted circles. Seven players in league history have achieved this — Steph and Durant account for two. Only Larry Bird and Steve Nash qualified multiple times. Curry could make a second appearance in 2018-19.
Steph nearly hit the metric this year. He nailed 42.3 percent of 3-pointers, 92.1 percent of his attempts from the charity stripe and 49.5 percent from the field. He came so close and made 2017-18 look like a breeze.
This is a great year for Steph to re-up his club membership. Efficiency is at peak importance in 2018-19 for every player. The Boogie addition leaves a lineup with arguably too many scorers. Efficiency is the best remedy.
Curry almost reached this club in 2017-18 amidst injuries. He could possibly attain the goal in 2018-19. A fully healthy and on a mission for efficiency? Sounds like the perfect recipe.
If Steph continues to dominate while dishing Boogie helpers, everybody is happy offensively. Substantial scoring within conservative attempts is a roster-wide goal.
