This season, the better half of the \u2018Splash Brothers\u2019 has been unguardable, and tonight was no exception. Steph made 9 or more triples for the 36th time in his career. To put this statistic in context, second place goes to James Harden, who set a new record by scoring 9+ triples in a single game for the ninth time. Curry isn\u2019t just different; he\u2019s a true basketball great. Steph was even taken out of the game for the closing minutes of the fourth quarter by Steve Kerr.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">3,366 made threes in his career for the regular and postseason.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, that does lead the entire league.<\/p>\n<p>Any questions?<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/googlecloud?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@googlecloud<\/a> || Player of the Game <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Ok4Bh2jBgg\">pic.twitter.com\/Ok4Bh2jBgg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Golden State Warriors (@warriors) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/warriors\/status\/1459402404521136132?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 13, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Golden State won the game 119-93, putting a stop to any uncertainty about the Bulls. The Warriors are unquestionably the best team in the NBA this season. There\u2019s no doubt about it, thanks to what Curry is accomplishing almost entirely on his own.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019d just scored 50 points against the Hawks and 25 points against the Timberwolves. But tonight\u2019s game versus Chicago was special for him because he wanted to make a statement against the team that produced Michael Jordan. With Lonzo Ball, Zach LaVine, and DeMar DeRozan hooping beautifully this season, a youthful Bulls team was showing to be impressive. Everyone on the Bulls struggled tonight except Zach Lavine, Lonzo was an abysmal 2 of 11 from the field, Derozan also only shot 30.8% from the floor, while they missed their big man Nikola Vucevic due to protocol, even his presence wouldn\u2019t have been enough to stop another virtuoso from the greatest shooter alive.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">When it rains, it pours \ud83d\udca7<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Curry now has the most combined regular & postseason threes in league history. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7h9KbXmvvD\">pic.twitter.com\/7h9KbXmvvD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Golden State Warriors (@warriors) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/warriors\/status\/1459384080319979521?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 13, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Curry drops 40 points to defeat the rolling Chicago Bulls by 119-93. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":220,"featured_media":38376,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[2883,2882,1069,1070,2880,1109,2881],"class_list":["post-17632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-chicago-bulls","tag-demar-derozan","tag-golden-state-warriors","tag-klay-thompson","tag-lonzo-ball","tag-steph-curry","tag-zach-lavine"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17632","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/220"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17632"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17632\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38376"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17632"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17632"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17632"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
