USABMNT nominee Stephen Curry didn’t get to play golf. The 10-time All-Star is known for his prowess off the tee and was one of the biggest, if not the biggest, misses at this year’s ACC. But for Sir Charles, golf should be considered above all else, even the Olympics. “First of all, Steph Curry is a coward. He’s going around me. Can you believe he knew I was going to play my best round ever? That’s why he’s going to use a lame excuse like the Olympics to go around me?” Barkley told ESPN.

The nature of the brand is a clear indication that the “round bounce mound” He said it sarcastically with his usual dose of humor. That could easily be why Curry has yet to respond to the analyst. Despite Barkley’s well-documented dislike of the Warriors on screen, the former MVP has held Curry in high regard over the years. “I think when you look at tonight, Wilt Chamberlain, 100 points, Joe DiMaggio, 56 games. That record will never be broken! Because of that guy, he’s going to be at his best for at least five more years. And he’s going to set a record that no one will ever be able to match. And it’s a beautiful thing to see.” Barkley once said this on NBA on TNT.

Today, at 36, Steph still sits atop the NBA’s all-time three-point shooting list with 3,747 made threes. That number is further bolstered by his career 42.6 percent three-point shooting percentage, which is a game-changer for a modern point guard. Despite that, Curry won’t be playing point guard in the upcoming Olympics, as USAB plans to play LeBron James as a wing. The game plan will be revealed more in the upcoming exhibition games, but Curry will have to keep his desire to reclaim the CurryBoys belt in check, at least until next year.
