00:00 STEPH CURRY, POSTGAME G3-HOU-GSW: Nah, Plezi's way better. Sorry. I've never even seen these before over here. Oh, it's all good. Added some seats.
00:24 Steph, if you can just take us through, obviously, a tough battle down to the end, but you were able to — kind of willed everybody to win tonight. Steve Kerr saying that you were the best condition at what's —
00:36 I'm sorry. It is not directed you. We have a class clown (Marcus Thompson) in the building right now.
00:43 That's always clowning me, so I feel like this is related towards me.
00:46 It is not, I don't wanna be disrespectful or rude. You asking a very legitimate question and then somebody in the back of the room is having their moment.
00:55 He says the questions should be shorter. Is that it? Yep. Okay.
00:58 Keep going.
00:58 Let me, okay. Let me shorten this.
01:00 No, I promise you, it had nothing to do with you at all. I promise you had nothing to do with you.
01:08 I'm saying, security?
01:09 He is calling my phone 'cause he heard a drop on the floor and trying distract me.
01:13 Oh my God. So bad.
01:14 Sorry. Keep going.
01:17 You had a great game tonight. What happened there?
01:22 It's beautiful. This series is, I mean, it's all over the place. It's not gonna be a — I'll call it a beautiful brand of basketball — just 'cause of the matchup and the defensive intensity and the physicality, but for us to withstand a rough start shooting the ball and finding flow, obviously, without Jimmy, it takes a little bit of patience to figure out rotations and everybody's asked to do a little something different and we gave ourselves a chance by weathering the storm the first quarter, then we close out the second quarter with that run, that kept it close, and then we've had the No. 1 defense for a while. Obviously, that's been with Jimmy, but the mentality and the attention to detail, gave us a chance to get over the hump in the second half and we finished the game strong. GP was unbelievable in the fourth quarter, Draymond defensively, so it all came together.
02:29 Buddy's had kind of an up-and-down season at times, but — not only how important was he tonight, but when you're being defended at times the way you are — how crucial is the spacing he provides when he's in the lineup?
02:42 It's huge. We try to keep the game simple and to the point of how they're guarding me, if they're gonna send a trap or double team or blitz a pick-and-roll and I get off of it. If we're spaced properly, Buddy's a guy that demands attention. You can't leave him open and if he has a little bit of daylight, he's gotta be able to take those and knock 'em down. Moses hit a big one in the fourth, I think, the beginning of the quarter, so those two guys are threats on the wing, but Buddy especially. That's what he is done his whole career, so for him to have a game like he did and shoot the ball the way he did, give defensive effort, plus-14, that's big time.
03:26 Stephen, how does knowing that Jimmy is gonna be out, how does that impact how you make any adjustment, whether it's physical or mental, knowing that he's not gonna be there?
03:38 There was just a moment in the second quarter where I had to kind of get a little bit more assertive and not let the double teams and the traps take me out of possessions. I only have four shots in the first quarter and usually that can work to our advantage if we're moving the ball and guys are getting open looks, but we weren't. It didn't seem like there was a lot of flow, so I kind of — I did kind of force the issue a little bit in the second quarter and got going. Thankful to hit some shots, but just trying to manage…
