Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr still can't wrap his head how good Stephen Curry is despite the years they've spent together. After another explosive performance from the two-time MVP against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday, the 56-year old mentor was having a hard time trying to explain being this close to someone like Steph Curry.
Curry went bonkers once again against the Cavaliers. With his team down by double-digits on the road, Curry decided to put his head down and went on to do Stephen Curry things, leading the Warriors to their 13th win this season. After the game, Kerr didn't really know what to say anymore.
“Nothing surprises me anymore, and yet I'm amazed if that makes sense,” Kerr explained after Curry's epic performance (via Nick Friedell of ESPN). “It's still incredible to watch, but you sort of expect it. That's what greatness is about. You sort of expect something to happen and then he does it and you're just in awe,”

The reigning two-time scoring champ was in his bag against the Cavs. Curry exploded for 20 fourth-quarter points to help mount a massive comeback against Cleveland to give the Warriors their second-straight road win. He finished with 40 points while knocking down 9-of-16 from deep as the 33-year old continues to put the entire franchise on his back.
To Kerr's point, with having a guy like Curry on your team, you sort of expect him to do crazy things on the floor. Time and time again, Stephen Curry has proven that he's capable of doing almost anything out there and, just like Kerr, we all have the privilege of watching him do it over and over again.
