They needed all 58 points from him to win that game. It would be different if they were up 35 with a full quarter left and he’s still launching 3s.
Again, you like others in here are speaking from the result of the game, so you're right they DID need all of his scoring to GET BACK into that game, but in the last 2:20 of actual game time, he took 2 ill-advised shots, while CP3 scored the remaining points for them to actually WIN the game.
What difference does it make if they're up by 35 or up 3, bad play is bad play, selfishness is selfishness. You even said it, he has come out and said he doesn't want to play that way, but lo and behold here he was in a close game chasing a statistic and being the singular option on offense. So which is it?
