Curry in Command Yet Again

I don't care what team he plays for and I don't care how underrecruited he was as a prep. I don't care where he gets drafted in the NBA Draft or if he gets drafted at all (oh, but he will). Davidson's Stephen Curry is the best player in college basketball. Period. America was introduced to him last season as he led the Davidson squad to seemingly insurmountable heights. And no matter what happens in the Big Dance this year, Curry will continue to prove that he is as dominant a college player as we've seen in a while. Last night, he tallied a career-high 44 points on 12-for-29 shooting--including 6-for-15 from downtown--in helping his team nearly overcome a 21-point deficit in a 82-78 loss at Oklahoma. It was the seventh straight game in which Curry has scored at least 25 points. While Blake Griffin's double-double of 25 points and a career-high 21 rebounds proved to be too much (and showed that Griffin may be the most talented forward in the nation), it was great to see that Curry was not a part of our basketball lives for just a few weeks last spring. Be ready to be treated to more of the same all season long. By the way, Davidson is 27-2 in its last 29 games.
