Stephen Curry 44pts 11asts Full Highlight vs Tim Duncan the Spurs 2013 Playoff Gm1

The streak continues, thanks to one of the most improbable comebacks in NBA playoff history.
The San Antonio Spurs won their 30th straight home game against the Golden State Warriors, rallying from 16 down in the final four minutes and getting a really big shot in the final seconds of the second overtime.
It was the kind of epic comeback reminiscent of memorable NBA games past, like the time Dudley Bradley capped an 18-0 game-ending run with a bank-shot three-pointer at the buzzer for the 1986 Washington Bullets.
Our friends at Numberfire calculated the Spurs chance of winning at 1-in-200 when they trailed by 16 late. Sometimes those kinds of shots come through.
Here are some of the statistical highlights of this win.
The game-winner
This marked the second time that Manu Ginobili hit a game-winning field goal with less than five seconds left in an overtime period.
The other instance came against the Phoenix Suns in 2008 with 1.8 seconds left in the second overtime.
Ginobili had 16 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds off the bench. He finished 5-for-20 from the field.
Ginobili has had 29 games in his career in which he's taken at least 20 shots. This was the first in which he made shots at less than a 30 percent rate.
Brilliant in defeat
Stephen Curry became the fifth player since 1990 to have 40 points and 10 assists in a playoff defeat.
The other four are Magic Johnson (1990 Lakers), Clyde Drexler (1992 Trail Blazers), Kevin Johnson (1995 Suns), Rajon Rondo (2012 Celtics), Stephen Curry (2013 Warriors).
Stephen Curry by Defender
Game 1 at Spurs
FG Pts
Tony Parker 7-12 17
Cory Joseph 6-7 15
Danny Green 1-5 2
Kawhi Leonard 2-6 6
Curry scored 22 points in the third quarter. He's averaging 12.3 points in the third quarter this postseason. No one else in this year's playoffs is averaging more than nine points in the third quarter.
Curry was 13-for-19 for 32 points when guarded by Tony Parker and Cory Joseph.
But after Curry made a driving layup against Joseph to start the fourth quarter, the Spurs made the switch to Kawhi Leonard as the primary defender on Curry.
The move paid off, as Leonard would hold Curry to 2-of-6 shooting the rest of the game. Curry missed all seven of his jump shots in the fourth quarter and overtime.
Game-changer: Spurs in the Paint
The Spurs went 11-of-18 (61 percent) inside the paint in the fourth quarter and overtime periods in Game 1, after going 10-of-25 (40 percent) in the first three quarters.
The Spurs went 8-of-9 inside the paint after Tim Duncan left the game with illness in the fourth quarter.

And now our guy draymond saying steph couldn't create his own shot? What he should have said and kinda did say later on self correcting is that teams started designing their defense solely for steph especially in the playoffs. He got stronger theblast couple of years and now he is even more unstoppable

[@peteraudu4554]

I don't think he literally meant Steph couldn't create his own shot. I understood what he meant. The past 2 years we are seeing a Stephan Curry that can score on all 3 levels whenever his team needs it. In 2015 he wasn't that type of player yet. KD has had disappointing playoffs series also. But it's never because a team just completely shut him down, with the exception of this year of course. In 2015 and 2016 the defensive game plan was to bully him on both sides. Tire him out when he is off-ball and fighting through screens. The amount of uncalled holding against Steph off-ball is ridiculous. And defensively just attack him as much as you can. In 2016 and some parts of 2015 it worked. Hence Delly had the game of his life against him in game 2. Steph is noticeably bigger and stronger now. That those defensive strategies don't work anymore. The confidence in his body also makes it easy for him to take it in when his shots aren't falling, with or without contact. This is something he struggled to do consistently before KD. Where I disagree with Draymond is when he says they weren't beating the Cavs. There he is trying to give Lebron too much credit at the expense of his guys.

Crazy how the commentator went from “knocks a two point field goal “ to “ curry from waaay down town and he BANGS IT IN” over the years..tuff

[@pusangorange702]

Honestly I became a fan since 2015 championship because in Philippines we don't really care about GSW.. televised teams was lakers(my favorite team since Kobe Shaq era) Spurs, Clippers Miami, Chicago and Knicks.

[@travz21]

"Curry has only been good for 2 seasons"

[@doge-xj7zb]

Then spurs came back and won the series.shows how good even older spurs were

[@homerthompson416]

As a Spurs fan I'll always thank Richard Jefferson for pissing this game away for the Warriors and setting Manu up for one of the franchise's greatest game winners.

[@edgarochoa3122]

It's crazy to think this game and his knicks game he went absolutely bonkers and lost both

[@margaritarojas4215]

I LOVE CURRY 🤩🤩🤩❤🇩🇴

[@rileyschulze3654]

Wow never realised how stacked that spurs team was

This being uploaded 9 years ago in 2013 makes me feel aged

6:17: The Crowds Reaction Back Then😮😮😮😮😮 Shots like that are Normal in Today’s NBA🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@aleksandrasbacevicius5070]

2:58 curry hits a long two, bench reaction, especially Jack: "(...couldn't make out the what he said...) it's just not fair"

[@moon.mp3201]

God mode 🥶

[@shujinir]

Only the Warriors took the 2013 San Antonio Spurs in 6 games. They swept the Lakers in the first round and Memphis in the conference finals.

[@notrllycomedy]

how u call him Stefan Curry and then correct yourself multiple times in the same game😭

[@IcarusFallz]

GOAT Curry

[@harryshane7605]

I didn't realize it was almost a decade ago until I saw windows 8 logo on the score board.

[@BleezyB]

“Stephon” when he’s displaying superb ball handling and scoring abilities. “Stephen” when referring to his basketball IQ.

[@Clips_36]

This game here made me pay closer attention to steph

[@StrongmanKing953]

Curry was so much quicker than now in iso

[@yeatdagoat173]

If Steph still had his quickness...sheesh. Bro would easily be the best player in the league
