Stephen Curry signs off social media to stymie playoff distractions

Stephen Curry has enacted Zero Dark 30-30.

The Warriors star told ESPN he is ramping down his social media use as the playoffs get underway, a strategy LeBron James famously calls “Zero Dark Thirty-23” after a Oscar-nominated film of a similar name and the Cavaliers star’s jersey number.

“When you’re really trying to zone in and keep your focus, you don’t want to have any unnecessary distractions during this point of the season,” Curry told ESPN’s Chris B. Haynes. “We have goals to accomplish, and you want to make sure you’re giving your all.”

While he said he’s done it the last two seasons without saying so, Curry clarified that he didn’t get the idea from James.
