Until Tuesday afternoon, Donyell Marshall hadnt watched Stephen Currys Monday night tornado of 3-pointers that broke his shared record for the most 3-pointers made in a single NBA game.But he definitely heard about it.My son texted me when he saw Steph had 10 [3s] at the end of the third, Marshall said from the gym at Central Connecticut State, where he coaches the mens basketball team. And I thought, OK, yeah, hes gonna get it. I got up to go to the bathroom at about 2 a.m. and looked at my phone and saw he had it.It was an off day for Marshalls Blue Devils, but Currys heroics brought media calling on the 15-year NBA veteran, who tied Kobe Bryants record 11 years ago when he hit 12 3-pointers as a member of the Toronto Raptors against the Philadelphia 76ers. Last season, Curry brought himself even with Bryant and Marshall when he made 12 3-pointers against the Thunder on Feb. 27.Marshall sat down with ESPN on Tuesday to watch highlights from Currys game and lend perspective on that kind of prolific shooting performance.I see a player in an amazing zone, Marshall said. He almost looks like hes playing a playground pick-up game. A lot of these shots are heat check shots. They look almost wild, but hes able to hit them because he works on them.Marshall staked his share of the record on March 13, 2005, against the Philadelphia 76ers, led by Allen Iverson and Currys now-teammate Andre Iguodala. That performance bears little resemblance to Currys.For starters, Marshall came off the bench and needed only 28 minutes of game action to shoot 12-for-19 from deep. Curry needed 35 minutes of work Monday to shoot 13-for-17, and Bryant needed 37 minutes to shoot 12-of-18 on Jan. 7, 2003, when he set the mark against the Seattle SuperSonics.Marshalls shots came in the corners, where he camped out and stung the 76ers repeatedly.During my run, the point guard had to get me the ball, the 6-foot-9 Marshall said with a laugh. Curry doesnt have to worry about that. As soon as he steps over half court, hes a threat.When Currys on, he looks perpetually on the verge of losing control. He twists, careens, tumbles. All of that translates to shots that look amazing -- or lucky -- to the average fan. But Marshall says anyone who dismisses shots such as Currys is missing one thing.When a fan sees Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant or Steph Curry hit these amazing, oh-my-god shots, what they dont see is that they work on these oh-my-god shots in practice. People can say, Oh, lucky shot, but thats not lucky. Thats work.The other thing here: Steph did a great job of reading the defense, and that feeds into a run like this. How did they play me last time? Where did they force me? Its based on reads.Asked if he was at all melancholy about losing his share of the record, Marshall shook his head.It would be one thing if it was somebody you didnt expect. But this dude? The way he shoots, the freedom he has? Its not surprising.Still, Marshall appreciates that the years have been kind to his record.I got more publicity from Steph breaking my record than I did when I set it. Air Jordan 1 Online Store .

Halladay signed a one-day contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday that allowed the veteran right-hander to retire as a member of team with which he broke into the majors and spent the bulk of his distinguished 16-year career.SEATTLE -- Once the shock of hearing their manager was headed for the hospital after suddenly not feeling well, the Seattle Mariners kept their July power surge rolling. Kendrys Morales and Mike Zunino each homered, Aaron Harang pitched seven strong innings and the Mariners won their season-high seventh straight with a 2-1 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Monday night. The Mariners improved on the longest current win streak in baseball and did it without manager Eric Wedge on the dugout railing. Wedge suffered dizziness during batting practice and had to be helped off the field and into the Mariners clubhouse by team personnel. Wedge was examined by team physicians Dr. Mitch Storey and Dr. Edward Khalfayan, and the team training staff at the stadium. Despite Wedge eventually feeling better, the team decided to have him examined at a hospital. General manager Jack Zduriencik said before the game he expected the skipper to be back at the stadium Tuesday. But bench coach Robby Thompson, who managed the team on Monday, said Wedge was expected to spend the night. "Right now theyre just doing a series of tests and obviously hes going to stay overnight and well know more in the morning once all of those results get in," Thompson said. "Hes resting and hes feeling fine right now, hes feeling a lot better. ... He should be fine and Im sure the W is going to help him out a little bit." Morales led off the fourth inning with a homer and Zunino did the same in the fifth off Cleveland starter Ubaldo Jimenez, helping Seattle increase its league-leading total to 29 homers in July. The seven-game streak is the longest for Seattle since winning eight straight in August 2012. Cleveland pitchers had gone nine games -- 85 innings -- without allowing a home run. Jimenez (7-5) kept the streak going through 88 innings until Morales led off the fourth with his 15th homer of the season, which curled just inside the right-field foul pole. An inning later, Zunino fell behind 0-2 and Jimenez tried to sneak a fastball past the rookie. But fastballs are the one pitch Zunino has shown he can hit at the major league level, and he lined a 411-foot shot into the left field bullpens for his second career homer. Seattle has now homered inn 25 of the last 26 games, the only break in the streak coming last Saturday when they won in Houston with just one hit.dddddddddddd "Every day youre a different player, but weve been connecting here and every time you connect thats a positive thing and you can build on that," Morales said through an interpreter. "Youve got to work hard in the cage with your teammates every day and I think thats a fundamental thing that were really focusing on right now." Harang (5-8) gave up a solo homer in the first to Nick Swisher, and danced around trouble for his second win in the last three starts. Tom Wilhelmsen survived the ninth for his 22nd save. Wilhelmsen blew a save in Cleveland earlier this season and gave up a one-out double to Michael Brantley. Carlos Santana grounded out, with Brantley advancing to third before Jason Giambi walked. Wilhelmsen got Lonnie Chisenhall to fly out to right for the final out. "Offensively weve got to pick it up," Clevelands Michael Bourn said. "Not press, but just be focused and take it from there." Harang fell behind early when Swisher homered, but found a groove later. Harang retired 11 of the final 12 batters he faced. He threw only 11 pitches total in the sixth and seventh innings combined. He finished seven innings for the fourth time in 16 starts, allowed four hits and struck out two. "You kind of want to match what the guy did the night before and thats how you get on good streaks. Its that competitiveness in the clubhouse, but were also going out there trying to help our team win," Harang said. "All around the guys have been swinging well, the defence has been playing well and the pitching has been there. Thats what it takes to get on streaks like this." Notes: Seattle rookie SS Brad Miller was named the AL player of the week on Monday after hitting .385 with two homers and seven RBIs in Seattles three-game sweep of Houston. He is the first Seattle rookie to be named player of the week since Ken Griffey Jr. in 1989. ... Swisher was hitting in the No. 2 spot for the first time this season. He had hit in the No. 3 or No. 4 spot all season until Monday. ... Seattle RF Michael Saunders had a 10-game hitting streak snapped. ' ' '
