Stephen Curry is feeling it already vs Cavaliers (Video)
By David Rouben
It took just a minute for Stephen Curry to start feeling it from deep in the Finals Rematch against the Cavaliers.
It’s safe to say that Chef Curry thrives even in a pressure cooker… I’ll stop. Even with a target on their backs, his Warriors team has only lost four times on the year, and they’re making their first trip to Cleveland since they won it all last season.
And any plans the Cavs had of trying to limit his shooting have gone south.
"Curry from WAY downtown early for @warriors! #GSWatCLE on @NBAonTNT! #NBARapidReplay https://t.co/M9h3Pzq9IY— NBA (@NBA) January 19, 2016"
The two have already met with the Warriors taking the opening meeting 89-83 on Christmas Day. The Cavaliers will be looking to return the favor on their home court on Martin Luther King Day. However, if Curry keeps shooting like this, the Cavs could find themselves in an early hole.
After all, Kemba Walker already set the tone on Monday by exploding for 52 points today.
Curry’s responded to the challenge of a hostile environment well, and he knows all too well the significance of his last visit to the Quicken Loans Arena, when he told reporters that he hopes the visiting locker room “still smells a little bit like champagne.”
Curry’s got the stone-cold confidence that embodies the heart of a champions and we as basketball fans can’t help but love it.
