For the first time in conference finals history, two brothers were pitted against one another: Stephen Curry and his younger brother, Seth. In the end, Steph's Warriors managed to sweep Seth's Trail Blazers.
As the two brothers battled it out on the court, their parents, Sonya and Dell, watched anxiously from the stands. There were nervous moments, to be sure, but they had to be there to support both sides.
Having two sons playing on such a big stage is great, but it created a fair amount of stress for Sonya and Dell. To show equal support, they wore split jerseys during the games.
“Is there any room for fun here?” a reporter asked their father, who replied, “No not at all she's very stressed,” referring to their mother.
“We thought it would be a lot of fun, it's not so much fun,” he said. “It was really hard getting ourselves prepared for not being all in for one child.”
In the end, Steph's Warriors got the better of Seth's Trail Blazers. As a result, Golden State is now the second team in NBA history to reach the championship round in five consecutive seasons.
“I mean, somebody had to lose, but this is just the beginning for him and his career,” Steph said of Seth. “We'll remember this for the rest of our lives.”
Following Portland's overtime loss in Game 4, Seth decided to post a picture on his Instagram account. In the caption of the photo, which features the two siblings on-court, he wrote: “Still a series to remember…. #Family.”
