Stephen Curry discovers the joy of giving victory to the buzzer | NBA

Do not confuse “game winner” with “buzzer beater”. Stephen Curry knows this better than anyone since before that night, he had made seven “winning baskets” in the last seconds of a match. His best known is probably the one against the Thunder in 2016, and there was 0.6 seconds left on the clock.

Before this meeting against the Rockets, he had never scored a “buzzer beater”, and so it’s done with this basket written on the nose of Kevin Porter Jr. No distant 3-pointers, but a step-back near the free-throw line to knock out Houston at the mermaid.

“That’s how a game goes… I scored shots a few tenths from the end, a second… It doesn’t matter, they were important shots. But it’s different when you score at the very end of the match. It’s good to finally discover this feeling.

Like many, Steve Kerr didn’t know it was his star point guard’s first career buzzer beater.

“I was surprised and I went to tell him” says the Warriors coach. “Obviously he made a lot of baskets in the last seconds, but I didn’t know it was the first. It’s an ideal end in a match where we hung on, and we needed it. I think we had forgotten how difficult it is to win a game in the NBA. I think the guys will learn the lesson. “

For Curry, this victory, the day after a surprise defeat after extra time, will be good for the mind. ” It’s a great feeling. In the last 48 hours, we fought, we went to overtime, we lost… There was disappointment, but we hung on and we showed resilience and our reaction was impressive in second half-time. It reminds us to keep our primary objective in mind in everything we try to do.. “
