With 2,974 career three-pointers, Curry surpassed Ray Allen to become the all-time three-pointer. Achieving great achievements, Curry is worshipped, and even current superheroes such as James Durant are full of praise for him. Curry enjoyed all the glory, and the Knicks were nailed to the column of shame. Because Curry's great opponent is the Knicks, this team has once again become the background emperor. In the future, as long as someone mentions Curry's miracle, Knicks will be mentioned.
Repeatedly becoming a great background emperor, the Knicks' encounter is inevitably too tragic. Chamberlain is the greatest supergiant in NBA history, winning seven consecutive scoring and rebounding 11 times. Averaging over 50.4 points per game, Chamberlain has many records that are difficult for posterity to match. But Chamberlain's most admirable statistic is 100 points in a single game, which no one has been able to break so far. Chamberlain's data was obtained against the Knicks.
In that game, Chamberlain scored 41 points in the first half, and the Knicks couldn't stop him. Entering the third quarter, Chamberlain's firepower remained unabated, scoring 28 points in a single quarter. Under Chamberlain's leadership, the Warriors also suppressed the Knicks. With a big lead, Chamberlain deliberately went off early. But then Warriors head coach Frank McGuire refused to change Chamberlain, but instead kept creating scoring opportunities for him, eventually contributing to a crazy record of 100 points per game.
Elgin Baylor is the saddest uncrowned king in NBA history, ranking among the top stars for a long time but not winning the championship, but in the first season after his retirement, the Lakers successfully won. Passing by the championship, it became Baylor's pain. But for the Knicks, Baylor was a pain point for them. Against the Knicks, Baylor had 71 points and 25 rebounds in a single game.
Another god pitcher, Reggie Miller, also gave the Knicks shame. In the final 8.9 seconds of a playoff game, Miller exploded, shooting two consecutive three-pointers and two more free throws. In a very short period of time, Miller scored 8 points, the Knicks' original 6-point advantage was lost, and the Pacers reversed the victory.
Active superstars also like to score high marks on the Knicks and enjoy unlimited glory in Madison. James has scored 50+ in 2 games against the Knicks. Curry scored 54 points in a single game against the Knicks. As for Harden, he also scored 61 points against the Knicks.
Constantly achieving the greatness of the opponent, the sad label on the Knicks will increase. When greatness is repeatedly celebrated, Knicks' wounds are torn. For a team with a long history, this is not a small regret.
