Steph Curry's crossover ties Tyler Herro up in knots and blows up on the internet

San Francisco, California - The Golden State Warriors took care of Miami 123-110 Thursday night in the NBA, but the Heat's Tyler Herro might still be icing his ankles after attempting to guard MVP Steph Curry.

Herro went dancing with the devil with less than six minutes left of the game. The results are currently blowing up on Twitter.

Curry hit the former Kentucky Wildcats star with a crossover that had him looking like Bambi on ice, before scoring masterfully to make it 108-100.

The only consolation for Herro is that he didn't fall to the ground, which would have completed the embarrassment.

Still, the Miami Guard went from looking in Curry's eyes to staring into space in a matter of milliseconds. Following the devastating crossover, Steph dipped back and made some room for himself to swish a smooth 3-pointer.

Curry finished the game with 33 points (10 scored in the final quarter), nine assist, and seven rebounds.

The Golden State superstar has come out the gates this season with a fiery attitude, as if he didn't just win the most recent championship.

Curry will showboat more of his ball skills on Saturday on the road against the Charlotte Hornets at 7:00 PM EDT.
