Steph Curry missed a chance to win the game in overtime. He’s struggled to put up the points he wanted to for most of the game. Entering overtime it looked like Damian Lillard was gonna help the Portland Trail Blazers get another one at home and tie the series heading back to Golden State. Then, Curry happened. He scored the Warriors first 12 points of overtime by himself, and then he told Portland he was back.

Yeah, Steph Curry is back alright. At this point you will never be able to convince me that he didn’t miss the game winning shot attempt at the end of regulation on purpose just so he could eviscerate Portland in overtime. The zone that Curry entered was at a level of absurdity that even those of us that are used to Curry by now couldn’t believe. Curry is back, and sorry to the rest of the NBA but he might be unstoppable.
