On December 14, Beijing time, the NBA regular season, the Warriors played against the Pacers. Curry, who once again hit the all-time three-point record, scored 5-of-15 from three points and scored 26 points to lead the team to a narrow 102-100 victory.
Now in every NBA game, Curry is the absolute focus as he is about to break Ray Allen's all-time three-point record. However, Curry has not been in good shape in the past 6 games, shooting as low as 33.1% and shooting 34.9% from three-point range, and the feel has declined significantly. This time Curry is six points away from equaling Ray Allen's all-time three-point record. For Curry, investing 6+ three points in a game against a third-to-last opponent in the East and leading the team to victory doesn't seem like a problem.
After the start of the game, Curry seemed to be in good shape, singles Sabonis, dribbling a pull back, and then using the rhythm change to burst into the inside line, flashing and moving into the back basket. However, after Curry seems to have more ideas, frequent mistakes, the entire first half of the three points 7 of 2 can still be seen, but there were 4 mistakes affected the operation of the team, and even a rare low-level mistake of dribbling and dropping his feet, passing out of bounds is more proof that Curry did not think about his own behavior at all, it can be seen that Curry wants to shoot, to break the record, but the opponent is not a decoration, so Curry played very tangled.
In the second half, Curry's feel was improving, dodging Brogdon's defensive hit of the key three-pointer. At the end of the third quarter, Curry shot again with precision, hitting a three-point shot from a long distance, looking promising for breaking the record! However, the Pacers did not relax, and Curry was once again restricted, and did not stand up until the final moments of the game, and the key three-pointer ushered in the fifth three-pointer of the game, only one three-pointer away from Ray Allen's record. Curry then passed Turner's layup to help the Warriors tie the score in the final moments.
In the final showdown, Curry's record three-pointer did not score, but Looney grabbed the rebound in the front court and scored a key goal, and the Warriors scored 7 consecutive points to complete the rebound. In the end, the Pacers were powerless to return to the sky, and the Warriors won the victory in a thrilling way. In this campaign, Curry shot 8-of-20, 5-of-15 from three-point range and 5-of-5 from the free throw line to get 26 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.
Curry did a decent job, with plus-minus +17 being the highest in the game. But to be fair, Curry is still playing a little anxious, the record-breaking mentality can be understood, this chase is still 1 three-point difference, it doesn't matter, the next game to witness history!
