When you score 50 points at Madison Square Garden, you’re in some pretty elite company. You will be talked about forever. Last night, Steph Curry of the Warriors became an MSG legend.
He torched the Knicks for 54 points, while making 11 of 13 from 3-point range. He was unconscious.
But, the Knicks did pull out the win. So does that lessen Curry’s performance?
Felton’s blocked shot led to J.R. Smith‘s tiebreaking basket with 1:10 left, and the Knicks overcame Curry’s NBA season-high 54 points to beat the Golden State Warriors 109-105 on Wednesday night.
Curry was 18 of 28 from the field, finishing one 3-pointer shy of the NBA record with 11 in 13 attempts, in a performance that had the crowd hanging on his every shot. But the Knicks and Felton finally stopped him with 1:28 to play and the score tied at 105.
