PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT (SEE COMMENTS FOR FULL):
12:32 What are some ways you try to get on the same page with a guy like Steph, who…
12:41 Yes, exactly. Honestly, good question. Like, I think, like, that's kind of part of being a rookie. You just kind of have to figure that out. I mean, obviously what Steph has done for this organization, it's kind of his organization. So I just have to kind of, I just have to fit in and I'll figure it out and I'll talk to him about it. And, but he's a great leader and he tells me kinda like what he likes in certain actions and, yeah, it'll just take a little time but we'll figure it out.

13:10 STEPH CURRY: We just had a couple of careless possessions in third quarter. We played extremely — we executed extremely well most of the game. Obviously, they were throwing a lot at me and we were able to get the ball moving, get open looks and then you just have to stay as disciplined as possible. If teams are gonna play jump defenses and send traps and double-teams, like, I'm gonna get off of it. We just gotta be able to be sound, make simple plays. It's tempting sometimes to get a little sped up. You gotta credit them. They had athleticism all over the floor. You could tell that they had a good halftime talk. That's how they're gonna try to get back in the game and it worked.
13:59 Steve said he's gonna play Quentin more. I don't know how much, but I mean, obviously he provides a different element. How needed is that for you guys to have at least a stretch for him to go to?
14:09 It was interesting tonight. We had, besides the one turnover I had in the third where I thought he was gonna roll and he popped and we got kind of confused, that was like building chemistry. I don't think we've played together all — even in training camp, even in practice.
14:29 That's the first time he's ever been on this — ?
14:31 He reminded me of that, so we'll develop that chemistry for sure, just knowing where he's gonna be. But there was three other plays I can think of where they sent a double or pulled over and I was able to find him on the perimeter and knocked down some big shots. So he's getting he's gonna get comfortable pretty quick. I know it's — everybody who plays in the G is kind of big-eyed when you get up here because the pace and the physicality and the skill around the court, but he looked very — it looked like he fit, so it was kind of cool to watch.
15:13 Whether it's him or outside the organization, how much do you feel like you need, in 2025, more minutes with a stretch big on the floor, you personally?
15:27 Just the way the league is going right now, you having space, having as many shooters as possible, whatever position, the 5, definitely it helps. So I think — I don't know how many minutes he played in the first half, but it's just, you have a counter to aggressive defenses. They wanna try and take the ball out of my hands. It should help Dennis a little bit, too, and pick-and-roll type situations where you can — you gotta make the defense decide, are they gonna pull in or are they gonna stay at home and try to get downhill a little bit more and get into the paint and create advantages off of his presence, or a shooter's presence at the 5. So, it definitely helps.
