San Francisco: So, the Warriors had a tough game against the Rockets, losing 91-90. It was a nail-biter, and there were some head-scratching moments in the final seconds.
One of the big talking points? Steph Curry’s step-back three-pointer with almost 10 seconds left on the shot clock. After the game, he was asked if he regretted taking that shot so early.
Curry was pretty honest about it. He said, “Both,” meaning he liked the look but maybe it was a bit too soon. He mentioned that if he had made it, they’d be heading to Vegas, which is a pretty big deal.
He also pointed out that with just a few seconds left on the shot clock, he could have waited and left the Rockets with hardly any time to respond. But hey, it’s Steph Curry we’re talking about. He’s known for making those shots.
Still, it sounds like he wishes he had held off just a bit. That shot choice definitely changed the game for the Warriors and their hopes for the NBA Cup.
It’s a tough way to end, but that’s basketball for you. You win some, you lose some, and sometimes, you just have to live with the choices you make on the court.
