Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has found his rhythm. Since erupting for 46 points and breaking the NBA's 3-point record against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday, he has not slowed down. On Wednesday, Curry scored an efficient 24 points on 8-for-12 shooting against the Dallas Mavericks. A day later, he dominated the Denver Nuggets, with a familiar Curry flurry in the third quarter:
Here's one of his four 3s from the quarter, a four-point play in transition:
"I didn't expect to make it," Curry said. "It was like a dream."
Here's another one, where he put Nuggets rookie Jamal Murray in the blender:
Honestly, if you're Murray, what can you even do there? He stayed with the back-to-back MVP as he danced around, lost the ball and recaptured it, even getting a hand up on the ridiculous-for-anybody-else shot. By the time Murray saw it go through the net, Curry was already on his way back to the other end of the court. That's just brutal.
Two things to note: He's doing this on the dreaded second night of a back-to-back in Denver, and he's doing this a day after he tweaked his ankle. Not bad.
