Morant: I m a better shooter than Curry!

1:32pm, 23 September 2025Basketball

Recently, Morant has become active again. Recently, for some reason, Diss Curry said that he is a better shooter than Curry on the Internet. This remark instantly ignited heated discussions among fans and the media.

Some fans said bluntly: "Morant is having fun in a nightclub again? How many dishes are they like this? How dare you say this publicly, where does the confidence come from?"

You should know that Morant himself is not good at three-pointers. His best skill is to break through, or small throws near the penalty area, and of course, dunks are also awesome. But as for shooting, it's really not that accurate? Morant's three-point shooting percentage in his career was only 31.3%, while the three-point shooting percentage last season (2024-2025 season) was only 30.9%. As a defender, such a three-point shooting percentage should be unqualified. If he had not been trained as the star of the Grizzlies, such a shooting percentage and number of shots would still be very controversial.

Of course, Curry responded directly to Morant this time, saying: "Yes, you are the best shooter, after all, you are using a 9mm Glock (the model in Morant's previous gun incident)".

I have to say that Curry's answer this time was clever, and this response humorously joked about Morant's previous gun-carrying incident. In March 2023, Morant showed his gun in a live broadcast of a nightclub in Denver and was directly suspended for 8 games. Then in May 2023 he once again held a gun on a friend's live broadcast, resulting in a ban on the first 25 games of the 2023-24 season and a loss of over $7.5 million.

Recently, in the final quarter of the game against the Warriors on April 2, 2025, he was officially investigated by the league for imitating gun-holding actions on the opponent's bench. So Curry's response implied that it was a satirizing that Morant might be more "available" than himself in "firing a gun", which attracted many netizens to leave messages and jokes in the comment area, and also made the popularity of this incident continue to rise.

Curry has absolutely the say in the three-pointer. Previously, Ray Allen said on the show: "There are many similarities in my playing style. We are both good at moving without the ball, pulling the defense by constantly running, so as to get the opportunity to take an open position. . When we are in open positions, the threat to the opponent is extremely high, which can keep the opponent's defensive players very nervous at all times."

Then continued: "Curry is completely different. He has excellent ball-handling skills, which can perfectly integrate the skills of point guards and shooting guards. Not only can he catch and shoot through running without the ball like us, but more powerfully, he can also create shooting space by dribbling himself, launch an offense from anywhere outside the three-point line, and even score points with excellent breakthrough ability. His threat on the court is all-round, and this style is unique."

Rai Allen is at a disadvantage against Currygan, where does Morant have confidence?

The Grizzlies should not be very competitive next season. Although they have two core cores, Morant and JJJ, they traded Bain this offseason and had a new coach last season. It feels that the Grizzlies will not be very likely to enter the playoffs in the West next season. I feel that if the West just counts, there will be not enough places.

Morant also needs to suppress his temper and concentrate on playing basketball. If this continues, the Grizzlies will really trade him. Don’t be beaten by yourself by a good hand of cards at that time. When the physical condition starts to decline, there will be no help.
