Jock Blog: We have have Steph and Jimmy, they don’t
I kept feeling it in my gut since Wednesday morning: Rockets in seven. I couldn’t shake the memory of April 6 at Chase Center, when everything seemed to change.

Jock Blog: Murph weighs in on Steph Curry’s place in basketball pantheon
Can one man be the subject of — wait for it — two consecutive Jock Blogs? Rare air, indeed. Steph Curry might want to call his agent and see if there’s an incentive clause in his contract for that. Last week, the Jock Blog gushed about No. 30 after his 56-point performance in Orlando, wondering…

Jock Blog: On Klay’s night, Steph turns former splash brother into nothing more than his latest dejected foe
Mark your territory much? Wow. I write this on a Thursday, almost 48 hours removed from the ‘Slay Klay’ storm that Wardell Stephen Curry II unleashed on the NBA, Chase Center, the Dallas Mavericks and his old Splash Brother, Klay Thompson. Not in that order. In fact, the primary victim of the explosion was the…
