Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors didn't have a great Sunday. The reigning NBA champions were narrowly beaten by the Denver Nuggets 112-110. The Warriors are fighting to stay out of the play-in tournament to start the 2023 playoffs. Curry was visibly upset with the team's performance during his post-game presser. Last year's Finals MVP didn't hold back on his thoughts on how the game went. Needless to say, Curry knows what success in the league looks like. According to Curry, last night wasn't one of those nights.
“So it’s just a matter of executing, being mindful of what it takes to win that particular game that night, maintain our momentum that we’ve worked hard to create in the first half, but weren’t able to do it,” Curry shared during the post-game. However, Curry did see some things he liked in Sunday's performance, “Still, the grit and the fight allows us to be one shot away from stealing a game we had no business being in. But we got to come to a realization like if we’re going to win or do anything in a playoff kind of scenario, a game like tonight can’t happen.”
Steph Curry Looking For Better Team Performance At Season's End
It has been a less-than-ideal 2022-23 campaign for the Warriors. The team has dealt with injuries with Curry. Personal issues have sidelined Andrew Wiggins. All-in-all, the team hasn't been able to find a grove. However, if this team gets a chance at having everyone together, the possibilities are endless. The Warriors were the greatest dynasty of the 2010s and continue to flex their muscles. A Finals victory over a younger Celtics team last summer proved the Warriors are still dominant.
No one is expecting the Warriors to make a Finals run this season. If anything, most media members believe the Lakers to be the Cinderella of the West. However, counting out the Warriors seems to be a foolish thought. A team with this much chemistry can overcome many obstacles. Although, being on the same page when the Playoffs start will be vital to their success. Do you believe the Warriors can make another run to the NBA Finals? Are there too many obstacles to overcome this season? Please tell us your thoughts on the Warriors in the comment section below. As always, stay here at HNHH for the latest news in sports.
