Eminent journalist Skip Bayless is known for his scathing attacks on NBA superstar LeBron James. However, James is not the only one. Stephen Curry recently faced Bayless’ wrath after the Golden State Warriors lost Game 3 of the NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics.

Talking on his popular show, Undisputed, Bayless ripped apart Curry for his first-quarter display. Moreover, he criticized the Warriors star by labeling him as a person who ‘can’t guard.’

Bayless said, “Last night was pathetic with a capital P. He got in foul trouble cause he was just reaching and grabbing as that’s all he can do. He can’t guard!”

This is not the first time Bayless has criticized Steph during the Finals. After the Warriors lost Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics, Skip went all out.

He called out Curry for not stepping up when it matters the most and also bashed him for his showboating. Interestingly enough, although Curry is undoubtedly one of the greatest shooters ever, Bayless went to the extent of bashing that aspect of Curry as well.

He said, “On the biggest stage, in the biggest moments, he displays no clutch gene. I see that the greatest shooter ever is the greatest until the stakes are highest, then he’s nowhere near the greatest.”
