Steve Kerr: Steph Curry Is 'Different from Anyone Else Who's Played the Game'

Kerr recently told ESPN's Tom Junod that Curry is "different from anyone else who's played the game," meaning old-school coaching would not allow the guard to maximize his potential:

"My first year of coaching him, he's taking shots night after night that every coach I ever had would have called horrible shots.
