Golden State Warriors superstar point guard Stephen Curry only averaged 14.7 shots per game in the Dubs' first round series against the Los Angeles Clippers. Foul trouble and Kevin Durant's high usage rate played into that.
Winning is all that matters to Curry, but the two-time MVP admits he would like to take more shots moving forward. The Warriors' sharpshooter also doesn't mind playing in the shadow of Durant since he believes they complement each other very well.
“We feed off each other that way,” Curry said of him and Durant, via Marcus Thompson of The Athletic. “We highlight each other’s strengths. His strength is he can get a bucket any time he wants to, but we can also take some pressure off of him. But when he’s dominant like that, and then every two or three possessions I can come off a pick-and-roll and either I’m scoring or getting into the lane or somebody is getting a — WE HAD SEVEN LOBS.
“I want more shots, yeah. But my aggressiveness is not in search of that. It’s just trying to make plays. You can tell by our body language it’s a different effect out there. KD had it going all night. The times he didn’t have the ball in his hands, we were still getting good shots. Even if it was me or Draymond or Andre or Klay. Whoever it was. That’s when we’re at our best.”




The Warriors beat the Clippers in six games. Curry averaged 24.7 points in the series while shooting 50.0 percent from the field and 50.0 percent from beyond the arc.
The Warriors take on the Houston Rockets in the second round of the playoffs. Curry hopes to take more than 14 shots per game in that series.
