urry didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The third quarter is where it broke open — curry 27' 3pt pullup jump shot (18 pts) (+2.5). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Curry closed at +7.7 without needing a final flourish to get there.
