Curry after his game-winning shot.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cThe most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious,\u201d Einstein wrote in The World As I See It<\/em>. \u201cIt is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thus far, the NBA has been far from that cradle this season. There\u2019s not a lot of mystery when you have two superior teams\u2014when the best players in the game are playing like the best players in the game. The results have, for the most part, certified reasonable assumptions as truths.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Case in point: what I wrote about in December still holds true as we turn into March. Stephen Curry continues his long and fruitless search for a heat check<\/a>. On Saturday, playing on an ankle still sore from injuries he\u2019d sustained during that same game, he tied the NBA record for three-pointers made in a single game. He hit the game winner on a pull-up three from nearly thirty-three feet away<\/a>. I say \u201cnearly\u201d because his shot is so effortless at these extreme distances, and his lift so instinctive, that my precision seems beyond the point: the markings on the court don\u2019t matter, our silly rulers don\u2019t matter. Muscle memory, genetics, extensive training, great emotional intelligence\u2014all the stuff of true science has surfaced in Curry as true art.<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s look at that game-winning three-pointer as a work of art. Suffering\u2014as Auden wrote in his study of Brueghel, \u201cMus\u00e9e des Beaux Arts\u201d\u2014is a \u201chuman position\u201d to understand. You might find it at the center of the scene or at the periphery, but even if it\u2019s not front and center, it\u2019s there: \u201cthe dreadful martyrdom must run its course \/ Anyhow in a corner \u2026 \u201d Look to one corner of Curry\u2019s canvas<\/a> and you\u2019ll spot Andre Roberson, a role player who earns his roster spot playing defense, doing exactly what the textbook tells you to do: he tried to hustle back to the three-point line in order to position himself to defend from there. But Curry\u2019s frame of reference is neither the arc painted on the court, nor Roberson\u2019s, nor the textbook\u2019s. As Roberson backtracked, his body betrayed its doubt about what it should be doing. His are the motions of someone in a high-leverage situation who\u2019s unsure whether to step back or step up, unsure if he\u2019s defending the past or the future.<\/p>\n

Even better than the shot itself is the reaction of the Thunder players on the bench. In another corner of this new Curry masterpiece<\/a> is Anthony Morrow\u2014a great shooter but defensively challenged\u2014who didn\u2019t play a minute in the game. He\u2019s imploring Roberson to step up on Curry as he\u2019s approaching half court. As the shot reaches the apex of its arc, the reserve center, Enes Kanter, who\u2019d played well but in perhaps a moment of over-coaching was taken out of the game at this critical juncture, lets out one of those why-me-why-us shrugs of the beleaguered, the type of half-hearted gesture where the hands don\u2019t even make it all the way up because the body has given up hope before the mind has registered it. From the sidelines, the Thunder had all the answers for poor Roberson. There was no mystery to what was happening. But still, even in the abject horror of it all, I\u2019m sure they saw the beauty in it\u2014to say nothing of the art and the science.<\/p>\n
