Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant were every bit of the one-two punch that they weren't during Game 4 of the NBA Finals, stuffing a reporter's question when inquiring about Curry's squatting after a technical foul was erroneously assessed at the scorers table.

Here is the exchange:

Reporter: “Steph, I'm sorry we keep asking you about squatting, but while Draymond [Green] and Steve Kerr were arguing about the technical, it looks like you squatted down. Were you stretching there and what did Richard Jefferson say to you?”

Curry: “Y'all serious right now?”

Durant: “You gotta be better.”

Reporter: “People are curious.”

Curry: “C'mon, man this is crazy!”

Durant: “You gotta be better than that.”

Curry: “I really don't have an answer, that's the craziest thing I've ever heard.”

Reporter: “What did Richard Jefferson say to you?”

Curry: “I have no idea, I don't remember what situation you're talking about, but yeah…”

Durant: “You gotta be better than that. I'm sorry, I like you, but you gotta be better.”
