QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
ON THE STATUS OF KLAY THOMPSON AND ANDRE IGUODALA:
“They just went through the walkthrough so barring anything unforeseen, should be out there.”
ON THE STATUS OF JONATHAN KUMINGA:
“I don't have anything other than he's out (right-ankle sprain) tonight.”
ON THEIR SLOW FIRST-QUARTER STARTS IN RECENT GAMES:
“Yeah, we're looking for consistency. I think the last two games were very disappointing defensively. Last game in particular, it felt like our defense was invisible. We just didn't put up a stand and that's what we have to get back to is being the defensive team that we were over the previous five-game homestand, and then again in LA where I thought we'd played really well defensively. So that's the focus. We've got to really establish that right away, but that has to be the case regardless of who's in the starting lineup.”
ON THEIR DEFENSIVE STRUGGLES WITHOUT ANDREW WIGGINS AND JONATHAN KUMINGA:
“Yeah, that's a factor, but that doesn't matter. Whoever is available, that's who plays and we have to have some standards that we need to reach regardless of who is out there. I mean, it's one thing to have a tough matchup. It's another thing to let a guy slip behind you for a layup on the first play of the game. I mean that's not setting a tone. It's not about personnel. It's just about our mentality to start the game.”
ON STEPHEN CURRY PERFORMING AT A HIGH LEVEL ENTERING HIS MID-THIRTIES:
“I think he's definitely the best-conditioned athlete that I've ever been around in the NBA. I mean there's just no one who combines the work ethic with the skill set. And the ability to put all that together in this package of incredible endurance and quickness. So every time he comes back, I watch him work, while he's out, and it's amazing just to see what he puts himself through to be ready, He is definitely a guy who's going to age well. He’s still playing at a really high level and it's incredible to watch him work.”
