I am not trying to take anything away from Bronson Koenig's performance last night. It took huge balls to take and make the game tying shot with the shot clock winding down, and it took a huge swinging dick to have the composure to hit a game winning buzzer beater as he drifted into the arms of his bench. Instead, what I am trying to do is to get Bronson Koenig to stop downplaying his own accomplishments. There's not many things that can make back-to-back clutch 3's that send your team to the Sweet 16 seem like a minor accomplishment, but comparing them to that of one of the most unanimous MVP's in NBA history will do just that. Just keep Steph Curry's name out of this Bronson. Trust me, as soon as you bring him up you make yourself look insignificant. That's not an indictment on you. If the standard is Steph Curry then nothing in the sports world is impressive. People have done what Bronson Koenig did last night. I feel like I see it at least once a year when the tournament rolls around. That doesn't mean it's any less awesome. It just means it's not worthy of comparison to an NBA player who is having a season unlike any we have ever seen. Those shots were otherworldly, so let's not bring people back to Earth by reminding them the stage that they took place on wasn't exactly the biggest.
