QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
• Stephen Curry postgame on his approach: “It was a really fun series. It was tough from Game 1 to Game 7… vibe of different adjustments… we knew they were gonna probably stick to the same formula… allowed us to go back to the drawing board… as simple as possible… a lot of pick and roll.., organized offense that gave us a good start… some good looks to open up the game and that allowed us to connect the game… for me it was just about being aggressive in that scheme… I got 38 shots for a reason, I got ultra-aggressive…”
• On his missed free throws and smiling about it with Q: “Attitude can manifest a lot of things… missed four or five free throws the last two games… never overthink it, just enjoy the moment… be in the present… I like to have fun with it.”
• On Monk saying they were old: “We didn’t need any sound bites but it did help… that was a talking point for them… we knew who we are… 36 hours… regroup… we had a great talk yesterday and film session. There’s still nerves… but when we get out there our experience took over and felt pretty comfortable at the jump.”
• On interactions with the crowd: “It’s just the playoffs… especially when you go seven games… Bay Area, NorCal kinda situation… all that stuff kinda comes out when you get the job done… you just let all that out. This is hard… a lot of narratives and commentary game to game and you’re trying to block it all out… there’s fun with it too.”
• On who can stop Steph Curry: “Hopefully we’ll never find out.”
• On what makes championship DNA special: “…memory bank of how you feel in these types of environments… it matters… we love this atmosphere… said that after Game 6… trust each other… great energy off our bench… communication and togetherness on the bench… everything was connected… good things usually happen. It was a great time to put it all together.”
• On the Lakers: “They’re totally different than the Kings… we know Bron really well… since the trade and they look really different… it’s weird, a 6-7 matchup and we get home court advantage… even if guys didn’t get much run in this series… different style… everybody’s gotta be ready.”
• More on facing the Lakers: “It’s amazing because you’re still in the fight… nothing is guaranteed and you don’t take anything for granted… blessed… excited for a new chapter.”
• On championship DNA: “That’s how you win at this level. The offense is flashy… for us our calling card has usually been our defense… momentum stay on our side even if were not hitting… especially when you’re not turning the ball over… lost the possession game… keep the crowd out of it… probably our best performance of the series.”
• On any rivalry of NorCal: “…you hear from both fan bases… geography… podium game of people talking trash, regular season history… kinda dope to know there is a little history… doesn’t really manifest itself in the way we approach the game.”
• On Looney giving more possessions: “He makes his presence felt and it’s amazing, another 20-rebound game… plays a lot larger than his size… identity… we take a lot of wild shots… hopefully this performance continues.”
• On working with Kerr: “There’s a lot of trust in our staff. Coach is a leader… not an easy job especially when you have so much talent to find the right combinations… rotations… our input… you don’t have the success that we have over the last nine years without that trust… him being a player… legends… brings all that wisdom… not just Xs & Os, but keeping everybody on the same page…”
• On how he’s stepped up his trash talk over the years: “I do it differently… sometimes it’s choreographed, sometimes it’s not. I never take it too serious. The more that you’re in this fight… defying the odds… everybody wants to see you fail, that’s kinda the nature of where we’re at… can still prove people wrong.”
