On December 14, Beijing time, the Warriors challenged the Pacers on the road, and the Warriors performed poorly in this game, they were behind in the first half, and at most they were 9 points behind the Pacers. In the third quarter, the team found some game status, scoring 33 points in a single quarter and recovering four points, and at the end of the third quarter, the Warriors were still four points behind the Pacers. In the most critical fourth quarter, the Warriors tried to narrow the point gap, and at the critical moment, although the Warriors were behind the Pacers, it was good that Curry stepped forward, and he personally scored 5 consecutive points to help the team equalize the score. In the final moments, Looney's inside line basket hit to help the Warriors reverse the score, and the Pacers then made mistakes and lost suspense in the game, and finally the Warriors defeated the Pacers in a 102-100 reversal and won the game.
The main players of the two teams in this game: Curry had 26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, Looney 14 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, Wiggins 15 points, Green 15 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists, Porter 10 points, Poole 8 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. On the Pacers' side, Samsa Jr. scored 30 points and 11 rebounds, LeVert 19 points, and Brogdon had 23 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists.
The biggest focus of this game is that Curry can break or equal ray Allen's regular season three-point total in this game, in the previous two games, Curry shot wildly on the outside, hoping to break this record, but unfortunately, Curry's shooting efficiency on the outside line is not very high, which also causes him to be a little closer to this record.
In this game, Curry still chose to try a three-point shot on the outside, but his shooting efficiency in this campaign is still not high, and there are many mistakes on the court. This also led to the team being behind most of the time, but at key moments, Curry made up for it, he did not stick too much to the outside shot, but strengthened his own inside line breakthrough, seized the opponent's defensive loopholes, and then completed the score on the inside line, at the key moment, Curry scored consecutive points to help the team successfully win this game.
In the whole game, Curry played 35 minutes, 8 of 20 shots, 5 of 15 three-pointers to get 26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, although there were 7 mistakes, but in the key moments to come forward, the individual scored 5 points, which made him a hero of the team's victory, although this campaign did not break or equal Ray Allen's three-point shooting record, but Curry personally completed the redemption, he did not want to break the record, and led to the team losing, in the last moment, changed his way of playing, His play in this game is commendable.
Judging from the past three games, Curry is still a bit anxious, many outside shots are not very reasonable, and the shooting efficiency is not very ideal. Curry's constant attempts on the outside have affected the Warriors' tactical system to some extent, leaving the team in a reasonable playing system.
In the last game against Philadelphia, Curry shot 3-of-14 from the perimeter, including 1-of-6 three-pointers in the final quarter, and only got 3 points in a single quarter, which also led to the team's eventual defeat. In the game against the Pacers, Curry shot 5 of 15 from the outside three-point line, and the shooting efficiency is not high, if it is not a last-minute continuous score, the Warriors are likely to lose this game.
In my opinion, the honor of crowning the three-point king of history, sooner or later is Curry, he still needs to follow the steps, can not rush, to follow his normal rhythm, can not blindly cling to the outside three points, just like the Pacers' last-minute performance, so as to help the team get better. He is currently only two times away from surpassing Ray Allen's record, and in the next away game against the Knicks, curry should have no problem breaking the record if he plays steadily.
