Steph Curry: “We’ve been on the other side of it where guys have missed [time for the] teams we played against and that’s part of winning at the highest level. You have to have health. You have to have good fortune. You have to have ball bounce your way down the stretch in certain games.”

He’ll never make that excuse or moan about that stuff he always tries and just gets on with it, love to see it.
“You have to hope the other teams misses 27 3s in a row”
Most self aware best shooter of all time ever
2015 Cavs, 2017 spurs, 2018 rockets. On the hand warriors struggled with injuries from 2019-2021. Injuries are always going to waste a year or two of a contenders championship window.
I will love curry forever and ever. My second fav player of all time. My handsome goat.
Good to see curry recognize that he’s had his fair share of luck during the dynasty. Feel like a lot of stars wont admit that
Based Curry
Actually inspirational. Come back stronger for your age 37-38 season.
Did we just become best friends???
Thats a real champ right there
Wardell throwing out gems of wisdom here, love to see him talk about the nature of the game. He knows the Dubs have benefited from other teams injuries in the past
Bloody great perspective.
Goddamit how can I hate on this man when he’s so goddam likeable all the time
He’d be a terrible redditer
To be honest, I’m really not angry on what happened. I understand that if we want to win the championship, at least, the supporting players needs to step up.
As much as I have been jealous of the Warriors’ success, I could never hate on Steph. Just a pure professional competitor.
Wish some of his fans could be this logical and clear headed
You know ive always hated warriors fans and their arrogance (im from the bay and all my friends are dubs fans) since 2014 but Ive always found it impossible to hate on Steph. Hes quite literally just HIM
Draymond’s the worst, but that was otherwise an astonishingly classy series. Everyone was largely cordial and humble throughout.
That’s a true superstar statement right there
It’s kind of refreshing to hear that out of a star like Curry. It’s true, almost every championship is the result of talent, health, and luck coming together at the right time.
Nice classy response. Looking forward to seeing him back
Love this response
“You have to have the ball bounce your way down the stretch in certain games.”
Words to live by.
Dude trying to hate this guy is impossible, I gave it up like 5 years ago but like goddamn does he say the right things.
Steph always keeps it real man, that’s why he’s my GOAT. This is good for the league anyway gonna get some teams a chance at a first chip.
They have been playing really well without their spice. Couple of the games looked like they could have went either way.
god we were beating them so badly in those first 13 minutes. AND he’s right. AND We still would’ve lost the next round, but it would’ve been cool to take down the wolves. 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Respect
That’s my fucking GOAT
This guy is such a fuckin G. Takes it right on the chin.
Steph is just a wholesome dude lol. Despite being the bane of our existence the last decade, I cannot help but like the guy.
This is true in all sports, but even more so in basketball because of the nature of the sport. Only 10 people on a roster, too.
You’d think Draymond would be enough to make me hate the Warriors but I love Steph too much man. I’ll always root for the guy. I love seeing him play.
Yeah, it’s hard not to love this guy
Would any other top 10 player ever say this?
That’s my goat
“Unless you’re MJ,” he added.
2016 Finals
1. (Pg) Steph MCL & ankle injury
2. (C) Looney fluid in lungs – out
3. (C) Bogut broke his leg – out
4. (C) Festus knee injury so bad he was forced to retire after the finals despite having a Portland contract
5. (Pf) Dray suspended – out 1 game
6. (Sf) Iggy back spasms needed injections just to walk on the court
That’s all 3 centers and 6 out of 13 players
Nobody coming back from that many players compromised. So like 2015, 2016 went the other way in terms of health.
Such is life.
Steph’s all class, man.
Well said
If he can admit it so can their nephew fans. Curry is that dude
You right. Also, I thought that was really classy that Steve Kerr said he would not comment on the injury status of his team, because he did not want to diminish the Wolves accomplishment.
It doesn’t have to be like this lol, we don’t have to have 82 game regular seasons. They’re boring, legacy stats can still be attained with a 60 game season as careers might last longer on average, high quality playoffs is what matters tbh
I can confidently say I’ll never like any basketball player more than Wardell Stephen Curry the second
As a cavs fan I used to hate him. Only as much as a losing fan should. But now I hate him cuz I like him
