NBA NEWS & RUMORS: Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors Updates
After the Warriors lost to the Timberwolves on November 12, Curry spoke about the offensive struggles the Dubs are going through.
“There’s always been a certain approach to guarding us,” Curry said. “For years, you know where attention is going to be. Usually try to blitz me in a pick-and-roll, stay body-tight on Klay … whatever the case is we have to make adjustments. We can’t just keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. It’s not a panic or anything. It’s just a matter of getting a little smarter and a little bit more organized.”
Curry has outscored every teammate on the Warriors by at least five points in all 11 games this season, the longest streak to begin a season since Michael Jordan in 1987-88 (11), according to ESPN’s Statistics & Information.
“Everything is on the table for us for adjustments,” Curry added. “When you’ve lost three straight, you have to make adjustments. I don’t know if it’s a rotation thing or whatever the case is, but everything is on the table and everyone has to be ready to step in.”
