Jack Henry (pictured above) and I were disappointed as we walked to the car last night, but I told him to try to appreciate what we had just witnessed from Steph Curry. And I'm not the only one who was in awe.

UPDATE: On the ESPN program "Around the Horn," the host opened Monday's show with this question: "Was Saturday night the greatest regular-season basketball game you've ever seen?"
