Draymond Green hails Stephen Curry after 38-feet shot in win over Brooklyn Nets

On Thursday, at the Barclays Center, Stephen Curry was seen doing Stephen Curry’s things. With only three seconds left in the first half, the Golden State Warriors talisman attempted a 38-feet shot from half-court against the Brooklyn Nets, and as expected, it went in.

Curry scored 40 points and hit seven 3-pointers in his team’s 121-119 win against the Brooklyn Nets. The Warriors were trailing by 22 points at one stage but then Curry did what he does best.

The Warriors veteran Draymond Green was full of praise for his teammate for his magic on the court.

“Most people can make that shot, luckily,” Warriors teammate Draymond Green said. “[But] we all knew that shot was going in. It really changes the momentum. I think that’s the second time, this road trip, that he’s had one changed the momentum like that. It’s a big, big momentum shifter for us going into the locker room.”

Green added that Curry has been consistently putting on a show and hailed the talisman for his performance.

“I just think the degree of difficulty is so crazy,” Green said of Curry’s offensive outings on this trip. “You could see a guy score 40 points and be like, ‘Man, he had a good game.’ But when you see him score 40 points, it is totally different because … he’s literally putting on a show.

“It’s like you went and watch a Cirque du Soleil or something. It is not your typical show you’re going to watch. It’s a whole bunch of different acrobatics that go into it.”

The team’s head coach Steve Kerr revealed why Curry is loved by all the basketball fans across the world.

“Steph just had an incredible trip, put on a show in every city,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “What he does, it’s amazing. Just the show that he puts on, the joy that he brings to so many fans who are coming to see him play in all these different cities. Every fan base loves Steph and there’s a reason he’s an incredible performer.”

The Warriors, who have an 8-1 record in their last nine games, will next take on the Detroit Pistons on Sunday
