OK this is starting to get a little ridiculous. I feel like I'm writing this blog every night because every night it's warranted. The other night it was Steph's historic 53 with 10 3PM as he became the Warriors all time leading scorer. No big deal. Here we are two nights later and this time this dude went out and threw up a light 42 points with 11 3PM in just three quarters. Barely missed a shot.

I'll say it once again for anyone who maybe didn't see the first few blogs. Steph Curry has officially entered must watch status. I'm talking his unanimous MVP season type status. Where you were a fool for missing a single second of Steph on the court. I don't care if the Warriors might stink, I don't care who they are playing, if Steph is active, you need to be watching. Do you think anyone enjoys watching GS/OKC? Not even Warriors and Thunder fans want to do that shit. But we do it, because of Steph. Because the greatest shooter to ever step foot on an NBA court is going absolutely wild right now
How about 39/7/4 on 54/49% splits with an outrageous 6.0 3PM a night so far in the month of April. That doesn't even happen when you play on the easiest level in 2K and Steph is doing that in real life games. Every night. Who cares if his latest outburst came against the tanking Thunder. He did all that tonight in TWENTY NINE minutes!! 42 points in 29 minutes. What else can you do other than shake your head?
Serious question, if the Nuggets start sliding without Murray, and the Blazers don't take a leap with Dame, how high can this version of Steph climb in the MVP rankings? The whole GS being kind of terrible certainly hurts. but this is getting ridiculous. Could he crack the top 10? Maybe top 8? They are just 3.5 back of the Mavs for the 7th spot and Luka is a top 6 MVP at the moment. If Curry carries this team into a top 7 seed down the stretch playing like this, that just might be good enough.
If nothing else, I know this. Watching Steph Curry play basketball is one of the best ways you can spend your night. This is now the third blog I've done about this, so you've officially been warned. Don't say you had no idea this was going on. I'm telling you. He's doing this shit every single time he plays and it's wildly entertaining. What an absolute monster.
