In the last three games, Curry has hit only 14 of his 46 shots from outside the three-point line, which is very inefficient. Although today's away win over the Pacers, Curry scored 26 points. But the shooting rate is only 40%, and the outside shot 15 three-point shots hit a total of 5 goals. Curry is about to complete the transcendence of Ray Allen and become the NBA's all-time three-point king. This is undoubtedly a welcome thing, but it is better for Curry to complete this record as soon as possible, because Curry has paid too much for this record. Curry's sluggish form in these games is hard to say that it has nothing to do with the record.
In the previous game to beat the Magic, Curry talked about becoming the all-time three-point king in a post-game interview, and there was an indescribable excitement in his tone. From Curry's point of view, we can fully understand, after all, this is something that cannot be sought. It was the perfect embodiment of his legendary career. However, there is always a distraction from the record on the way to the record. Curry may make more three-point shots for the record, and that's right in the hands of the defenders. Defenders know Curry will definitely make a lot of three-point shots.
So against the 76ers and pacers, opponents are staring at Curry's three-pointers. Curry's hands were low in both games, and Curry seemed eager to break the record in the game he lost to the 76ers. But the 76ers laid out a lot of defense and didn't give Curry a chance. The Warriors were briefly in the lead against the 76ers, only to be scored by the 76ers several times in the 4th quarter due to a series of errors on the offensive end and a defensive end. The Warriors can only swallow defeat on the road.
Curry's shooting percentage is currently only 43 percent, and his three-point shooting percentage is down nearly 4 percent from the beginning of the game, which is a very obvious fluctuation. Curry did everything for the three-point record, and the Warriors tried to help Curry achieve this record. Many Warriors fans want Curry to hurry up and complete the three-point record so that he can focus on the court and focus on leading the team to win.
There are many more such examples in history, the most typical example is the Miami Heat. The Miami Heat had a huge 27-game winning streak under James Wade that year, and when the 27-game winning streak ended, both James and Wade said that they were distracted by the record, hoping to win every game, and carrying too much pressure on their shoulders. In fact, losing as early as possible is a relief. Later James and the Heat focused on the court. That season, the Heat not only won 27 consecutive victories, but also successfully won the championship.
And in Curry, we also see the shadow of the Heat of that year, because too much chasing the record leads to distraction and efficiency decline. Curry now needs to adjust himself as soon as possible, and the next game Curry will go to the Home of the New York Knicks, and the probability of Curry surpassing in this game is extremely high. Curry is currently only one three-pointer away from equaling Ray Allen's record, and only two three-pointers away from surpassing to become the NBA's all-time three-pointer king.
The next game will top the NBA's all-time three-pointer as long as Curry plays normally, which is an honor moment. Curry is the NBA's king of three-pointers. Hopefully, Curry will be able to focus on the court and adjust his form after reaching the top, although the season has been played less than halfway, but the Warriors need Curry to play steadily. Instead of playing iron like in recent matches. Dear readers, how do you rate Curry's three-point performance in recent times? Feel free to leave a comment in the comments section below the article.
