The Golden State Warriors know the drill. If Steph Curry gets a wide-open look from beyond the arc, not only is he taking the shot, he's probably going to make it. So, just go ahead and celebrate as if Curry made the basket, even before the ball goes through the hoop.

See, Andrew Bogut knows the drill. 

And Klay Thompson does, too. Or, so he thought. During last night's game against the Dallas Mavericks, Curry caught a pass with no one around him and Thompson, simply following protocol, put his hands in the air to celebrate the inevitable. But then, Steph tossed it over to Klay who didn't see this plot twist coming and had no idea what to do from there. 

C'mon, Steph! You only have one job.
