For the last two games, Stephen Curry has lit up the NBA with his unnatural shooting ability. Whenever he is in this sort of form, everything he touches turns to gold. That is exactly what happened with the Golden State Warriors as they steamrolled the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
After a 53-point game against the Denver Nuggets, Curry started where he left off in this match. The OKC were dumbfounded by the level of shot making on display and could not soak up the pressure.
After becoming the greatest scorer in the history of the Dubs, Chef Curry wanted to break the 3-point record too in this game. In fact, coach Steve Kerr had to stop him from going back out on the court in the fourth quarter.
In the post-game press conference, Kerr praised his star guard. He said, “I’m still in awe of the shotmaking. It’s just incredible. The level of confidence and skill is just stunning. It’s beautiful to watch. It’s a man at the peak of his powers with a lifetime of training and work — not just on his body, but on his mind.
He continued, “This is a guy who, he’s functioning at a level that very few human beings have ever functioned at in their particular field.”
