On the 15th, the outcome of the game between the Warriors and the Knicks did not seem to be so important, and the only focus of attention was that Curry finally broke Ray Allen's record for regular season three-point shooting in this game. This historic moment occurred in the first quarter of the game, when Curry raised his hand, the ball went into the net, and the whole stadium boiled over, even though most of them were fans from New York.
When Curry will be able to break the all-time record for three-point shooting has become a hot topic of recent discussion, starting with the 76ers in the East, fans and the media have begun to talk about it. In Philadelphia, Curry seemed to be distracted by the idea of breaking records, and his shots were greatly limited by Sable, a defensive tip, and his performance plummeted, hitting just three three-pointers. After Philadelphia, the Warriors came to Indianapolis, the Pacers did not have a very good defensive toughman, Curry also found the outside touch again, but his 5 three-point shooting, obviously can not reach the history, but has been far from breaking the record of 2973 three-pointers held by Ray Allen, only two.
A new moment in history freezes in New York. It's an interesting place. Madison Square Garden, which is known as the basketball mecca, many great players such as Kobe, James, Anthony, etc., always come here and play more shocking data and performances. Curry, on the other hand, scored 54 points here eight years ago, the first 50+ game of his career. Now, here again, Curry has written a new three-point history.
The high price of tickets for this match partly reflects Curry's popularity and the value of this game. Ticket prices for this game have quadrupled, bringing already expensive New York tickets close to sky-high prices. The Knicks averaged $352 a season, compared to $1,334 against the Warriors, and the most expensive ticket for the game was more than $14,700.
After Curry completed the moment of rewriting history, the audience boiled over, and people were immersed in the worship of Curry and the extraordinary excitement of witnessing great moments. Among them was Ray Allen on the sidelines. Ray Allen's historic achievement of 1300 regular season games was rewritten by Curry in less than a thousand games, which once again confirms Curry's extraordinary.
Ray Allen was teammate with Curry's father when he played for the Bucks, and he maintained a close relationship with the Curry family. Ray Allen once praised Curry's father, Dale Curry, as the greatest shooter, and he had a lot of respect for Stephen Curry. He said of Curry's achievements, saying, "People always compare Curry to me, to Reggie Miller, to other great shooters. But Curry, as I've said before, is creating a whole new path of his own. I'm just proud and happy about what Curry has accomplished, he's created a huge fan base, and he's continuing to set the standard for great basketball, a different standard. ”
Curry's three-point shot is amazingly accurate, but there aren't too many secrets behind it. In addition to a certain talent, the biggest factor is hard work. Curry once said this about his three-point stunt. "I'm not awake enough to shoot those long-range three-pointers. It's not going to happen overnight, it takes a lot of effort, and I hope people are aware of that. ”
Since Curry was in high school, he would ask himself to shoot 300 three-pointers a day in the summer, and when he got to college and the NBA, his training intensity increased again. Curry hits 500 three-pointers a day in the NBA offseason, and he shoots 200 to 350 shots a day as the season progresses. At the same time, Curry will improve his basketball skills through different methods and methods, and enhance his shooting stability. Curry said: "It is naturally very happy to rewrite history, but I don't take all this for granted. ”
