OAKLAND – Steph Curry is good at basketball, chapter 5,000.
During the second quarter of the opening game of the Golden State Warriors’ second round matchup against the Utah Jazz, Draymond Green set a screen so Rudy Gobert would have to come out and guard Steph Curry. Things didn’t go well for the big man.

As you can see, Curry put Gobert in a blender, steps back, then drives past the center and finishes with a reverse layup.
This isn’t the first time in recent memory that Curry lost a big man guarding him. At the beginning of April he made a similar play when Wizards center Marcin Gortat found himself one-on-one with Curry on the perimeter.
