PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT (SEE COMMENTS FOR FULL):
04:52 Yeah, he just brings like a kind of swagger probably to the team. And he's been to the Finals, so for me as a rookie, it just brings a sense of calmness to the team. I know that when he's out there, he's gonna take a big chunk of the responsibility offensively and I think today he was really good defensively, being in passing lanes, rotating early. So yeah, it just feels really good to play with a vet like that, that's really been at a stage like the Finals.

05:24 It is only two games, but, I mean, how good do you feel? Just, I guess, how this era is starting.
05:34 STEPH CURRY: It's made sense so far. We've put together, after the first half in Chicago, put together six pretty good quarters with intentionality, good effort. You see the positives of what Jimmy brings on both ends of the floor, just a high-IQ guy, competitor, plays under control all the time. We've put pieces around him with different lineups. We're still trying to figure that out. So it's been good so far. Excited about building some momentum. You want to end the road trip right. We've got an opportunity to do something. It's pretty special, considering where we've been this season. He says he's still pretty winded out there and doesn't yet feel fully like himself.
06:26 I mean, can you tell he's still trying to get back?
06:30 Just from what he's saying, the first quarter in Chicago, when he basically called for a timeout, it was seven minutes left. I could feel that. But yeah, I mean, he's had an up-and-down year, just in terms of availability. You can work out all you want to, but nothing simulates an NBA game in the pace, especially in 2025. So he's doing it. I mean, that just tells you how good he is, because he doesn't feel like himself and he's still impacting the game.
06:56 Specifically his ability to get to the foul line, what kind of dimension has that added to you all with ability to draw fouls, get free throws?
07:05 We've had it happen to us plenty of times where we can't get to the line and other teams can and just changes the momentum. Not only is it points, but it's ability to set your defense, figure some stuff out. If there's a run going the other way, be able to talk to some stuff out instead of taking the timeout, little things like that. And he's taking advantage of the space. We run a lot of motion offense and he gets it, whether it's the end of a play where I get trapped and he's in the pocket, he's making reads, taking advantage of smaller defenders or just positionally, he's always in the right spot. So there's another element we can get to as well, with some of the pick-and-roll stuff that we've done and being able to take advantage of opportunities there, but he's, again, he's impacting the game in a different way that we haven't seen.
08:03 What are you noticing so far about the pick-and-roll chemistry between you guys or the kind of looks that you guys are getting out of those actions?
08:09 It hasn't been very frequent yet, but I think with QP out there as a spacing big, Draymond in the pocket, Jimmy cutting, Buddy spaced, that was more like the Chicago game. Tonight it was just trying to have a more intentional offense where you get a switch, you get — we know…
