Steph Curry Ranked His Golden Dagger From The Olympics In The Top 2 Of Every Shot He's Ever Made
Last month when Steph Curry hit that Golden Dagger to put France to sleep and secure gold for Team USA, as expected everyone went nuts. Easily one of the most ridiculous shots Steph has ever had, it was one of those situations where he was in such a zone that everyone watching that game knew that whatever Steph threw up at that moment it was going in. To this day, there is truly nothing like when Steph starts cooking. It's as must-watch TV as must-watch TV gets.
Shit, Mike Greenberg (no relation) even called it the most memorable shot in basketball history!
Which was obviously a tad ridiculous. A bit of a prisoner-of-the-moment situation, in my opinion, it's not even the most memorable Steph Curry shot if we're being honest. But why take my word for it? Why not ask the man himself to rank his own top Golden Daggers?
I think this is where most logical people land. For a guy who has had so many big-time shots and has ripped out countless hearts of opposing fanbases by unleashing dagger after dagger, it can be hard to choose a top 2. But the OKC shot and the France shot are certainly worthy candidates. Even though that OKC shot came in the regular season, who gives a shit. Given it's been 8 years, let's have a quick reminder of just how insane that game was
Nothing delivers quite like a Mike Breen "Double Bang". Imagine if he was calling the Gold Medal Game? There's a chance we get a "Triple Bang" at that point.

Personally, I'm glad Steph didn't choose any of his daggers from Game 4 of the 2022 NBA Finals because frankly, I've been trying to erase that from my brain for the last two years. Considering that game is essentially what won GS the Finals and got Steph his first Finals MVP I was certain it was going to be on his list, so that was a relief.
I suppose we should have figured he'd list the France shot top 2, but when you have a million to choose from you can understand why he's maybe forgotten a few.
