 Stephen Curry has missed almost 9,000 shots over the course of his NBA career. He has missed approximately 6 out of every 10 three-pointers he has attempted. And yet he is widely considered the best shooter in the history of the game. The question is, why is he the best shooter of all time? Is it his footwork, his shooting form, his hand-eye coordination? Sure, all of these traits play a role. But there are plenty of players with these traits. So then what is it that makes Stephen Curry the GOAT? It's for two reasons. Number one, his commitment to the unseen hours. And number two, his consistent next-play mindset. He never lets a previous miss affect his next shot. He misses a shot? Next play. He misses another? Next play. He wipes the slate clean after every shot and always believes his next shot is going in.
