There is no question that this moment was highly anticipated by many fans and other players. Many even expected it to be broken earlier, but it is certainly fitting that a historic occasion as such is broken in a top-tier arena like Madison Square Garden, with legends like Ray Allen and Reggie Miller present.
We’ll see if Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors end up winning the game, but many people certainly expect it to happen, as the New York Knicks have struggled this season. With a Warriors win tonight, this will be a perfect day for them.
The Golden State Warriors entered the game with a 22-5 record, and they are currently the 1st seed in the Western Conference. Many view them as the favorites for the championship. There’s no question that they are a team that has the ability to win the title, especially once Klay Thompson and James Wiseman return. With the way Stephen Curry is playing, it’s hard to envision the Warriors going on a skid, and we’ll see if they are able to win it all.
