Tony Allen may recognize Stephen Curry's MVP status, but that doesn't mean the self-proclaimed "Grindfather" will concede defeat in a Western Conference semifinal showdown between the NBA's most dynamic point guard offensively and arguably the game's best backcourt defender.
In an interview with CSNBayArea.com's Nate Stuhlbarg, Allen seemed less than impressed with the Golden State Warriors star, even after Curry torched his Memphis Grizzlies for 22 points in a Game 1 win.
"I don't get a vote, but I acknowledge his MVP status," Tony Allen said after practice on Monday.
