It was dead quiet in Chase Center when Stephen Curry fell hard onto his tailbone. The image of their leader visibly writhing in pain under the basket was the last thing the Golden State Warriors and the sold-out crowd needed to see, especially amidst a dangerous trap game with the Toronto Raptors and the tides […]

For the last three seasons, Nikola Jokic has been kryptonite to the Golden State Warriors. Headed into this game, the Denver Nuggets had won the last eight meetings with the Dubs.

There was no lost love between Draymond Green and Karl-Anthony Towns on the court. Green made that point clear with a Stephen Curry patented “Night Night” celebration in the Golden State Warriors’ 97-94 win over the New York Knicks. It was a highly anticipated meeting. Earlier this month, Green gave a small apology to Towns […]

The Golden State Warriors did not need Jimmy Butler’s scoring in their 130-104 blowout win versus the Sacramento Kings.

With four NBA titles, two MVPs, and the all-time three-point record under his belt, championships are still at the forefront of Stephen Curry’s mind.

Over a decade ago, Ray Allen broke Reggie Miller’s all-time 3-pointer record with his 2,561st 3, reaching the pinnacle of shooting. Back then, 3,000 was just out of reach. And 4,000? That benchmark wasn’t even an idea; it was a fantasy. But that’s what Stephen Curry makes special– he makes the impossible possible. He makes […]
