[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] Warriors "Cute God" Stephen Curry played against the Magic at home today, scoring 41 points with 5 three-point bombs, and led the team to a 126:119 win in the overtime, ending their 7th consecutive victory. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr praised Curry for being able to maintain his peak performance for such a long time.
This is Curry's second 40-point game in the first month of this season, and the 77th time in his 18-year career that he has scored at least 40 points in a game. What is even more impressive is that this is the 16th time he has scored 40 points in a single game since he turned 35, surpassing LeBron James's 15 times and Michael Jordan's 12 times, ranking first in NBA history.
For the 38-year-old Curry to be able to set this record, Cole believes that this is an extraordinary achievement, thanks to his professional attitude. Good genes are also part of it. He has a body that can withstand high-intensity tests, but his ability to maintain this state is all won by his solid hard training in muscle strength training, physical conditioning and physical fitness.
Curry scored 12 points in the last 2 minutes and 21 seconds of the fourth quarter, including two super-large three-pointers, a layup, two free throws, and a difficult moving floater 25 seconds before the end to help the Warriors take a 2-point lead.
Cole said directly: "That shot was incredible. The penalty area was extremely well defended. It was a running shot of about 12 feet. It could be said to be a throw or a hook shot. He could also score a goal with a rebound. It is really unique. I don't know who else in the world can score such a shot."
The Warriors also became the second team in NBA history to start the season with three consecutive losses and then win seven consecutive games. The previous team to achieve this record was the Celtics in the 1950-1951 season.
