eorge didn't wait for the game to come to him. The first quarter alone moved the curve into double digits, and from there the question became whether the rest of the night could keep up.
The third quarter is where it broke open — george 26' 3pt step back jump shot (24 pts) (+2.3). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. George closed at +14.6 without needing a final flourish to get there.
