There's a video (click this text) of Stephen Curry in practice where he did over five minutes of shooting without a miss. That's over 100 NBA 3 pointers in a row.
Now, when you see such greatness there are two ways to react to it. Just two ways. No middle ground, just two! Either you're celebrating greatness or you hate on it. Remarks like "now he needs to transfer that to a real game as that what counts" is not just inane, it's hate. I, for one, do not dismiss genius. I think it's stupid to do that. Even if it's an evil genius, still acknowledge the genius after you've pointed out the evil.
A fellow asked what's the equivalent of such mastery in other fields. Someone called it "flow state", another said "Chris Nolan blockbuster doing $1B+ global sales every three years". I'm a new Chris Nolan convert, I agree with that.
There's an awe that comes with watching a master practice. For me, the first thing I say is "so, this is humanly possible".
Greatness inspires. Whether in practice sessions or in the arena.
Take a bow, Stephen Curry.

Is there a formula for it? Because both examples you listed Nolan and Curry have been doing their thing for so. damn. long!
Like you need to go watch Nolan's first film. Humbling to compare that to his recent work.
