Not long ago, former NBA player Richard Jefferson answered some questions from fans on the GQ Sports show. Asked who is the best in the league today, Jefferson said: "James, Curry are not, they are all old, they are all outdated. ”
Jefferson's remarks sparked a heated discussion in the fan circle. Some agree, but others oppose. But in today's game between the Warriors and the Nuggets, Curry himself smashed all doubts with his performance. Although he still played as a substitute, the offensive efficiency was terrible.
In this game, Curry played 22 minutes off the bench, shooting 12 of 17, 5 of 10 from three-point range, 5 of 7 from the free throw line, and had 34 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. It was also the first time in Curry's career that he scored 30+ points without playing less than 25 minutes.
After the game, Kerr said in an interview: "Curry's performance did not surprise me, I have seen him a lot of such performances. On the question of whether Curry is a substitute in G3, Kerr said: "We did not convince Curry to accept the substitute role, he is a humble player. ”
After the Dream Match, Curry's performance was also praised. He said: "Curry's plus-minus is actually +32, which is really exaggerated. ”
