Coming as a guest at TD Garden (June 17, Vietnam time) against the Boston Celtics in game 6 with a 3-2 lead.

Stephen Curry’s impressive performance right on the Boston Celtics’ home field at Game 6 Finals NBA 2022
It’s lucky that we all get to watch the greatness of a “popular” star, a baby-faced assassin or humble MVP named Stephen Curry. Almost single-handedly revolutionizing basketball, breaking countless records and conquering countless hearts, yet still quietly. It all boils down to just two words, faith. Not big but full of weight.
Not much different from previous matches, Stephen Curry continued to be the biggest highlight of the match. The Akron native alone brought home 34 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Not only that, he also played extremely effectively with a finishing efficiency of 57.1% in nearly 40 minutes on the field. The Finals MVP title for the first time in his career is also a worthy reward for what the baby-faced assassin has contributed.
Thus, Stephen Curry is on par with his biggest rival of the time, LeBron James, with 4 NBA championship trophies. Along with that are countless milestones, records, and titles that star number 30 has achieved throughout his 13-year career. However, that may not be enough. Because for Curry, belief in himself is what makes him, is and will be immortalized forever in the heart of the basketball world.
The immortal wears shirt number 30
Anyone in this life has a certain purpose and so do NBA players. Some people want to change their lives and provide for their aging parents, others want to conquer countless titles or “chase their image in Chicago” like LeBron James. But perhaps few journeys are as admirable as Stephen Curry’s, even though they only start with one thing: belief in himself.
But when it comes to trust, it is also extremely important. Basketball in the NBA is truly the perfect nursery for outstanding individuals. Any individual here is looking for factors to bring their name as high as possible. It’s not a coincidence that Joel Embiid cried like a baby after watching Kawhi Leonard coldly steal the victory from him or that Jimmy Butler shouted directly at the “effeminate” young players at the Minnesota Timberwolves that they were lazy. They cannot win the battle without me.
The NBA possesses countless giant egos
Clearly the line between confidence and arrogance is very small, like a thread on the hem of a sleeve. Perhaps the story about Dennis Schroder last summer still haunts Los Angeles Lakers fans. From a star who was noticed by the media and received great support from the most traditional fan community in the NBA, Dennis Schroder has turned into a laughing stock of the entire NBA. With the decision to refuse a huge contract worth up to 84 million USD, the German-born star had to face the harsh reality that his value was not as high in the eyes of other teams as he thought.
In a cold and terrible talent mill like the NBA, there exists Stephen Curry who is different from the rest. Amidst the endless efforts to polish himself from countless colleagues, the “Chief Chef” seems extremely calm. Don’t rush to try to do anything beyond your ability. Everything is simply aimed at victory for the whole team.
Stephen Curry always looks for the collective benefit first
If it’s as simple as that, why is an experienced warrior like Andre Iguodala willing to sacrifice everything to protect? Why is a superstar described by coach Steve Kerr as possessing the humility of a reserve player? Were you even happier than Klay Thompson himself when he saw his teammate break his own record? The answer is that Stephen Curry deeply understands his own value and that is enough.
Up to now, the greatest pitcher in NBA history has reached the top of the tournament four times, won MVP twice and countless big and small records. But fans have never seen Stephen Curry compare himself to anyone or rush after any legend to write his name on the history board with the highest position. Clearly, enlightenment through the Christian faith inherited from the family has led to belief in oneself and one’s own ability to find the path to follow. A calmness that is very difficult to find in modern society or especially in an environment like the NBA.
Stephen Curry has never been compared to anyone
Responding to Decision magazine in 2014, the captain of the Golden State Warriors told fans why he played: “I know why I play basketball. Of course it’s not Going out on the court and scoring 30 points per game is using basketball as my own stage. I realized that my destiny is tied to basketball for a clear purpose. That is nothing more than being a witness. Just for the journey I take every day”. That’s not what the superstar born in 1988 wants to convey through this message.
Indeed, up until now, Stephen Curry’s journey to the top in the NBA has been truly admirable when knowing his lifestyle. All the sparkling glory of this tournament seems to be contrary to the life the eldest son of the Curry family pursues. But how can a family-oriented player be able to stand at the top of the food chain where benefits are the most important thing? Everything comes back to trust.
Strangely calm
“Faith gives me a reason in life. It gives me the strength to put my shoes on the field every day. Thanks to that, I know how not to fly too high after victories and not sink too deep after losses. Because I understand that this life is much more valuable than winning and losing in basketball matches”, Stephen Curry shared with ClutchPoints writer Calvin Fong.
In a world overrun by egos, Stephen Curry appears as the solution. Amid intense financial struggles, the Akron son never once complained about the checks sent to his account. It’s easier said than done, because being silent in anger is completely different from being calm through understanding your own value.
Stephen Curry’s performance speaks for itself
Many fans in the NBA say that watching Stephen Curry play makes them feel like no one can hate a player born in 1988. Even though he used to be an anti-fan of the “chef”, the more he witnessed his actions, This article has been running for a long time, and the author of the article has actually changed his mind somewhat. Although he still does not and may never love this pitcher the way millions of other basketball fans do, respect is a feeling that captures the heart.
Today, Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors reached the top of the NBA. It was even more special when he won the championship and the Finals MVP title in the year of the tournament marking the diamond anniversary of 75 years of existence and development. Could it be that it was “God’s will” for this skinny little guy born in Akron to become a symbol of this era? Regardless, his immortal position in the world of basketball has been carved.
This smile will forever be immortal
