Stephen Curry re-established unforgettable achievements in his career

Once Stephen Curry cannot enter form, it will be difficult for the Golden State Warriors to have an easy match.

In the match of the American Professional Basketball League (NBA) between the Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors this morning Vietnam time (January 8), Warriors star Stephen Curry could not score any 3-pointers. after 9 throws, was the reason why the home team received a heavy defeat of 118-133 against the opponent.

Notably, this is the second time a 3-point shooting legend like Curry has not been able to have any 3-point scoring situations this season.

The first time Curry couldn’t do this came in a 118-114 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on December 18. This was the match in which this famous basketball player only scored 7 points, successfully completed 2/12 shots, achieving an efficiency of 17%. “Chief Chef” launched 8 3-pointers but did not hit any of them.

This achievement in the match against the Blazers also caused the 35-year-old star to end his streak of 268 consecutive matches scoring at least one 3-point shot in a match. Now, Curry only needs 10 matches to repeat this unforgettable achievement.

The Golden State Warriors can no longer maintain their strength this season when their pillars either seriously decline in performance or play inconsistently. The unstable defense of coach Steve Kerr’s team caused this team to receive bitter defeats many times despite having a deep lead.

This season, Curry’s shooting speed on 3-pointers has improved, but this shooter is always closely marked and has to shoot in uncomfortable positions. Just need to kill Curry or Curry himself is not in good form to almost guarantee a favorable result.

In the match against the Toronto Raptors this morning, the Warriors’ defense defended very poorly, allowing the opponent’s rookie RJ Barrett to score 37 points (13/20 FG, 5/8 3-pointers on target). Even a reserve striker of “Dinosaur” like Chris Boucher also got himself 17 points with outstanding situations of surfing and gaining points.

This was the Golden State Warriors’ 19th loss in the NBA 2023-2024 season, as well as this team’s 10th defeat at home. The holy place of Chase Center no longer brings the same luck to Curry and his teammates as it did last season.
