195 seconds later, Curry had made five threes and a layup for good measure. He also had clearly broken Darren Collison's soul in half. Seriously, just look at the play-by-play of the last 3:15 of the second quarter:
Omri Casspi got hot, too, but even at his most ridiculous he couldn't quite match Curry's ridiculous outburst. Early in the third quarter, Curry is already close to a triple-double. You'll always have those first 20 or so minutes though, Sacramento. No one can ever take that away from you.
