Warriors’ superstar Steph Curry entered last night’s game just 16 made 3-pointers behind Ray Allen’s all-time record for a career. While making that many 3-pointers in a single game has never been done before, we all tuned in thinking Steph had a real shot at it. But his true greatness lies in the fact that, while he is chasing down such a monumental NBA record, he is winning games at the same time and has his squad squarely on top of the NBA standings.
Dan Patrick: “Everybody was tuning in to see Steph Curry break Ray Allen’s 3-point record, and also just see Steph do Steph things...And the game had a little bit of a circus feel because Curry came in talking about 16 3-pointers in one game. You know, the interesting part is not that he didn’t get it, it’s that we tuned in thinking that he could do something that’s never been done before. Like, ‘Yeah, he could come up with 16 made threes in a game!’ He has that flair, that fun. The team feeds off his energy and he tries shots that most players wouldn’t even consider. But more importantly, he’s winning. The Warriors head to Philly on Saturday and Steph Curry will continue to chase history and entertain NBA fans along the way.”
