Throughout his NBA career, Steph Curry has put opposing teams and fan bases on the receiving end of his late-game heroics. When Curry gets a rhythm, there seemingly isn't a shot in the gym that is too difficult for him.

He's the best shooter of all-time for a reason.

On Saturday, France got a chance to know what it's like to see Steph go into Legend Mode. And let's just say that the French broadcast wasn't enjoying any of it.

Curry made threes in four straight possessions to close out the gold medal win for Team USA over France, which included one of the more iconic shots of his Hall of Fame career. And while viewers in the U.S. were treated to a great call by Noah Eagle, those watching in France may have gotten to experience an even better reaction.

"This devil named Curry is hurting us," the French broadcast apparently said as Steph got going during that run.

And then it got to the point where the announcers were asking aloud, "How is this possible?!"

We can all relate to that. Steph is just different. And now, he's an Olympic gold medalist.
