NBA legend Bill Russell narrates Under Armour’s Stephen Curry MVP spot


There’s a quote that has been seen framed and affixed to the wall in more than one NBA locker room, and it describes perfectly the level of hard work and consistency that’s required to succeed in just about anything, but especially in professional sports.

The Stonecutter’s Credo, attributed to Jacob Riis, was first used by Gregg Popovich and the Spurs organization as a mantra to motivate the team’s players, and has since been adopted by others in Popovich’s coaching tree.

Under Armour chose this to describe the work that Stephen Curry put in to achieve MVP status, and had 11-time NBA champion Bill Russell read the inspirational words in their MVP-tribute spot.

MY NOTE:  Good choice, Under Armour, and congrats Stephen Curry.

Stephen really earned it.  He's proving to be a much better ball distributor than I had expected.

You and many others Sam.

During one Warrior broadcast the play-by-play read from a scouting report that had Curry as an undersized shooting guard.

Van Gundy laughed and said the scouting report was a "misevaluation"--surely one of the great understatements.
