Nick Young appears to be rubbing off on Stephen Curry

Nick Young is famous for a lot. He was engaged to Iggy Azalea, he is the subject of a meme, and he will never outgrow the nickname "Swaggy P."

However, as much as all those things heighten Young's fame, nothing may be more famous than one 3-pointer he shot several years ago, or more specifically, one 3-pointer he missed.

When with the Lakers, Young took a 3-pointer in a game and was so sure he made it, he turned around and strutted his stuff.

One problem: he missed.

Young will never live that down.

Stephen Curry may not live down what he did Saturday either.

On a 3-point attempt in the third quarter, Curry was positive he had made his shot. He hadn't.

It is possible Curry was just sure he missed and was trying to get back on defense, but odds are against it.

Fortunately for Curry, he has someone on his team who has dealt with the ridicule of calling his shot and missing, as Young is now a Warriors bench player.

Unfortunately, he missed the 3-pointer and will have to deal with the ridicule of calling his shot and missing.
