After hearing the news that the Warriors are negotiating to bring in retired point guard Steve Nash as a part-time player development consultant, Steph Curry joked on Instagram: “Finally we get a decent coach around here.”
Curry is obviously joking — he seems to have a good relationship with Warriors coach Steve Kerr who won the title in his first year on the bench — but Nash did say in an interview earlier this year that he thought the Golden State guard was the greatest shooter “there’s ever been.”
“There are certain guys, they shoot the ball, you always think it’s going in,” Nash told Bleacher Report. “Steph is able to seamlessly get his feet down, gather his weight between his feet and go up in the air and shoot it in rhythm as if he’d just been standing there, caught it and shot it. Truly, from the eye test, he’s the greatest there’s ever been.”
