Steph Curry the GAWD does it again! After a slow start for the Golden State Warriors (at home), trailing by as much as 15 in the first half to the visiting Dallas Mavericks, everything changed after halftime. The Warriors came out of the locker room firing.
Led by the incredible effort of Curry, who absolutely lit it up from beyond the arch, Golden State rallied in the final period and found themselves up by one with less than a minute to go thanks to an uncontested three-pointer from Draymond Green. The shot brought the Oakland crowd to their feet, completely making the arena rumble.
And the best was yet to come.
After tying the game after a few free-throws from the Mavs, it was Steph Curry time again. With time running out and working on Shawn Marion, Curry drained the pull-up jumped with only 1.5 seconds to go, ultimately giving Golden State the win at home. He ended the game with a double double, 33 points and 10 assists.
Dirk Nowitzki and Monta Ellis both scored 21 points for the Mavericks, but it wasn’t enough, as the team went home with a losing effort.
