Steph Curry shooting left-handed? Warriors’ Brandin Podziemski made it happen
 to improve his game

https://reurl.cc/VnAxmA

As Brandin Podziemski huddled with his personal trainer this past summer, expl
oring how to raise his game, they hit on some ideas. They watched video of New
 York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson, freshly crowned NBA champion. They examined
the 3-point shooting volume of players such as Payton Pritchard and Tyler Herr
o.


At some point, Podziemski posed a simple if heavy question: What about Steph?
在某個時刻，Podz提出了一個簡單、卻值得深入思考的問題：
那Stephen Curry呢？

Stephen Curry counts as a model of efficient movement and basketball creativit
y. And the trainer, Dustin VanLieu, knew exactly how to help Podziemski gain d
eeper insight from his decorated Golden State Warriors teammate magically m
ake Curry left-handed.


VanLieu flipped videos of Curry let’s pause here for a nod to the power of di
gital editing tools to turn No. 30 into a mirrored version of himself. T
hat allowed Podziemski, who is lefty, to study the footwork, ball-handling and
 shot creation of a left-handed Steph Curry.
VanLieu將咖哩的比賽影片左右翻轉——這裡也不得不佩服數位影片編輯工具的強大——
讓30號球員變成一個鏡像版本的自己。

The images are striking, as Curry scurries around the court like a familiar if
 semi-fictional character. He dribbles around bewildered opponents, as usual
— even dropping Luka Doncic to the hardwood, on what looks like the opposite
end of the court than the real-life moment Oct. 30 but the sight of Curry laun
ching long-range shots with his left hand is strangely captivating.
這麼做讓身為左撇子的Podz，能夠研究一位左手版 Stephen Curry的腳步、運球技巧，以
及創造投籃機會的方式。


Curry wasn’t aware of Podziemski’s uncommon preparation until the Chronicle
showed him a video after Saturday night’s overtime victory over Orlando. Curr
y intently watched the lefty version of himself for a few moments, then said s
imply, “That’s crazy!”
直到上週六晚間勇士在延長賽擊敗奧蘭多魔術後，《舊金山紀事報》向咖哩展示這段影片
，他才知道Podz竟然採用了這種特殊的訓練方式。
咖哩專注地看了幾秒鐘這個左手版本的自己，隨後簡單地說了一句：這太瘋狂了！

He also acknowledged the logic behind the idea.
“Very creative and clever,” Curry said. “It makes a lot of sense to see foo
twork the way he moves, to create space in a way that makes sense to him. That
’s pretty cool.”
不過，他也認同這個訓練構想背後的道理。


短評或心得：


左手咖哩！
