STEPHEN CURRY: 32 POINTS/6 REBOUNDS/7 ASSISTS VS KNICKS
Sometimes, it’s not how you start a game but how you finish it. Curry’s performance against the Knicks supports this state of mind. Fresh off of a disappointing 6-for-20 shooting performance in a ugly loss to the Rockets, the assumption was Curry bouncing back from the opening tip.
However, that proved to be not the case.

Curry struggled in the first quarter, shooting 1-of-6 from the field and 1-of-5 from three. Curry continued to struggle during the first half. His numbers? 3-of-10 from the field and 2-7 from three.
Then, the third quarter happened. Steph STEPHED and proved that he is money in the third. He splashed four 3’s and and helped the Warriors pull away from a pesky New York Knick team.
While Curry did most of his damage in the 3rd quarter, the defining moment of the game happened in the 4th: Knicks Forward Michael Beasley crouched into the best defensive stance he could muster, but to no avail — Curry crossed Beasley up with some quick hesis, splashed a three at the top of the key, and laughed about it.
Just another example as to why you can never count Curry out. If anyone can turn a horrid shooting night on its head, it’s this guy.
