What are the differences between Curry and Thompson, the main players of Warriors, in three-point technique?

I think the three-point technical difference between Curry and Thompson is mainly reflected in the limbs. Everyone has a fixed shooting posture, including hand shape, throwing arc, arm posture and standing angle. Specifically, it is analyzed from the following aspects:

1, hand shape: I feel that Thompson's fingers exert more force and the overall hand shape is relatively fixed, which is roughly the same as that of most players. After watching Curry shoot, he will feel his fingers weak, but he will pick up the ball with the swing of his arm, and his hand shape will change according to his position. 2. radian: Thompson belongs to medium-high radian, and Curry is ultra-high radian. 3. Arm posture: Thompson uses the big arm to drive the elbow joint, and Curry's elbow joint is lower and more dependent on elbow joint strength. 4, standing posture: Thompson belongs to the shooting school with parallel feet, slightly on the side of Curry, and his right foot is slightly ahead of his left foot.

Thompson's three-pointers are perfect from the traditional point of view, with a lot of running without the ball, catching the ball around the cover, high hit rate of open three-pointers, and a certain top shooting ability in hot hands. On the basis of Thompson, Curry has a faster shooting speed, a stronger top shot ability, a three-point dribbling pull-up ability (dribbling ability under the first three preconditions of the league) and a three-point long shot ability. Facing the unprecedented defensive intensity outside the three-point line, he can actually shoot higher.

Thompson needs to seize the opportunity. Curry can not only create his own opportunities, but also need much less shooting space than Thompson, so quantitative change is qualitative change. Traditional shooters like Thompson, their strong defensive strength in the playoffs will obviously decline. However, Curry broke through this bondage and made his three-pointer a real nuclear weapon, breaking the tradition of "opening space for three-pointer with tactics" and replacing it with "tearing the defense system to teammates through his three-pointer ability". Thompson's own excellent three-pointer ability also helped Curry to open up space together in this system, but more benefited from the vacancy created by this system.
