The Warriors won on the wire this Sunday evening an exhilarating Game 1 in their series against the Grizzlies (117-116). A success due in part to a clutch action by Steph Curry, who didn’t hesitate to throw some good old trash-talking just behind!
What a game ! To start the series between Grizzlies and Warriors, Steve Kerr’s men immediately struck a blow by recovering home advantage. With experience, carried by their veterans and by an excellent Jordan Poole, the Dubs were able to overcome the ultra-controversial expulsion of Draymond Green and gain valuable success. As often, and even if he did not necessarily come out with the best offensive game of his life, Steph Curry responded.
Author of 24 points with a small 8/20 in shooting, Baby Face made the difference on the other side of the field by releasing a decisive counter (or an interception according to some) in the last minute to extinguish a Ja Morant then in fire. Here is the sequence below:

Steph Curry lets loose after decisive action
Immediately after this clutch action, the Chef did not hesitate to release a sentence which immediately went viral when journalist Anthony Slater relayed it:
Steph Curry screaming at the Warriors bench after that steal on Ja Morant in crunch time: “Locked that shit up, boy. I locked that shit up.”

Steph Curry yelled at the Warriors bench after that interception on Ja Morant: “I turned that shit off, man. I turned that shit off! »
It’s not every day that Curry engages in trash-talking like this, a sign of how important this game is to a Warriors starving for a new ring. From his sofa, a certain Kyle Kuzma in any case appreciated the spirit:
Steph talking that ????!!!!!

Steph is letting go of his trash-talking!
Crucial in defense, once is not custom, Steph Curry fulfilled his contract to help his team take this Game 1 and immediately put a blow on the head of the Grizzlies. We are now eager, of course, to see what the rest of the series has in store for us…
