Blitzing curry definitely worked. I think the timing of the blitz did more than the blitzing itself. Warriors were in desperation mode at that point, Steph trying to find a sliver of space. Early on, that probably leads to easier offense from others. – 11:28 PM

Curry was living on the edge. That charge he took could’ve gone the other way. And he could’ve been called for a push off on one of his threes.
I’m not sure his pride can take 9 minutes of letting people go on defense, but he can’t even be close to a foul until the 4Q – 10:34 PM

Steph Curry did a great job of playing with three fouls. That fourth he picked up with Smart shooting a 3-ball… Curry had a conversation with Smart before he shot the free throws. It probably went something like, “they gonna call me for THAT foul?” 😆 pic.twitter.com/OHkAex3RON – 10:33 PM

Worst sequence of the night for the Warriors. Steph Curry reaches in from behind to pick up his 4th foul/give Marcus Smart three free throws. Warriors then throw the ball out of bounds and stand around as Celtics toss ahead an inbound for a dunk. Five gift points. – 10:33 PM

Stephen Curry has recorded 14 career Finals games in which he’s made five or more 3P.
That’s one more such game than the next three-closest players combined:
🎯 Curry, 14
🎯 Klay Thompson, 5
🎯 Danny Green, 4
🎯 JR Smith, 4 pic.twitter.com/AkkxxVcreK – 7:01 PM

There are two very interesting prop bets on the board for #NBAFinals Game 3. One involves Marcus Smart of #Celtics. One involves Steph Curry and Klay Thompson of #Warriors. Both have very large payoffs: usblog.betway.com/nba/nba-playof… – 10:11 AM

ClutchPoints: Reporter: “Injury to Steph Curry that forced him out of the game?” Steve Kerr: “When they dove on the floor? I kept him in the game… I took him out with 2 mins left cuz we were down 14.” “No concern for Steph moving forward?” “I didn’t say that… We will know more tomorrow.” -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / June 9, 2022
Melissa Rohlin: Steph Curry: “I’ll be all right. I got caught underneath Al. Obviously, there will be some pain, but I’ll be all right.” -via Twitter @melissarohlin / June 9, 2022
Tim Reynolds: Curry says it’s the same thing that happened against Boston in the regular season, “but not as bad.” That means sprained foot. Says he expects to play Friday. -via Twitter @ByTimReynolds / June 9, 2022
