OAKLAND, Calif. — Nothing moves these Golden State Warriors or their fans like a Stephen Curry hot streak.
“I’ve seen those explosions happen here and everywhere,” said Draymond Green, after Curry went nuclear with a 26-point burst in the second half of Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals. “His three is similar to some people’s dunks. You go to certain arenas, and a guy gets a dunk and it’s just absurd. That’s how (Curry’s) three-ball is.”
Even with the July 2016 arrival of Kevin Durant, Curry’s long-distance shooting has been the signature of this hugely successful Warriors run.
