In 2022, when Iguodala hit a clutch shot to close out the game, Kellerman yet again revealed that he was sticking to what he said and that he still believed Iguodala more than anyone else in the clutch. Stephen Curry is not bothered by any of this as he himself has shared a video that shows Kellerman’s comments on social media.

When Kellerman made those comments back in 2019, he was not implying that Iguodala was a better shooter than Curry. He was talking about an open shot in the most intense moments. So he picked Iguodala because he has done it many times and is consistently good at delivering in those moments.
