However, the Dubs couldn’t capitalize on the start Steph provided, as they ultimately lost the contest.
Tyronn Lue and Terance Mann discuss how lethal Stephen Curry is
Stephen Curry, as we all know it, is the greatest shooter to ever be born. However, he is so much more than that. He’s an excellent playmaker, a floor spacer, and an overall crafty player. After the game, Tyronn Lue talked about Steph. Having faced him in 3 straight Finals with the Cavs, Ty Lue knows Steph a little better than the rest of his team.
“He’s so dangerous, probably the most dangerous player in the league the way he can get hot… In 2017 and 2018m we blitzed him with Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson on the floor. That’s how dangerous I think he is.”

Terance Mann added to the same, and complimented the Chef.
“It ain’t easy. It was almost like a flashback to the other night with Luka… Steph, on one of them, I was guarding him, he stepped back, he was bobbling the ball on the way up, and still shot it in my face and made it. Didn’t touch rim.”

Well, with one game remaining, the Warriors would like to close out strong before the All-Star break. They face the Nuggets on Wednesday, before they split for the break.
