‘Grow into myself’

SI.com: It was difficult not to be in awe last night, despite a poor first 34 minutes by Steph Curry. Sportswriters, usually the most unimpressable of anyone, gasped at his impossible shots. Grown men left their jobs in the New York suburbs early to come see him. And even Warren Sapp came, sitting behind Pat Riley. When Curry finally made a big shot and pointed towards the sky, you kind of had to wonder if he had a direct line with the basketball gods, because there’s really no other way some of those shots he put up went in. So as we watched everyone -- and we mean everyone (yes, West Virginia fans in the third row we saw you clap when Steph was introduced), we had to wonder how he’s changed fans’ lives and what else he could do for the world.
