The Grizzlies have not only outsmarted the Warriors, they also deprived Stephen Curry of chances to score. Steph managed to score just 16 points. Apparently, this has devastated the Warriors centerpiece and he desperately addressed the media. “We understand that environment that intensity is just…things haven’t gone our way recently when we go over the home,” Steph said.
Speaking about the game, Steph added,?“Physically it was fun but mentally we locked in and missed some shots, which happens. Again, the way that they guard us it’s putting a lot of pressure.” The whole episode of defeat and the inevitable uneasiness of the star has terribly upset the fans.
These are some of the comments from the fans.
“Dang Steph’s looking like he’s about to turn into a villain, in all of my years watching his postgame interviews he’s never looked this fed up. “ “He looks so pissed damn I never seen him like this in a post. ” “I ain?t never seen my guy look like this pissed off idk if that?s good or bad but I feel like it?s bad.” “This guy has scored 30 to 40 pts on average almost every night but tonight 16? Thats a statement!!!!”ADVERTISEMENT
