The splash bros Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are ready to embrace the tough challenge ahead in the NBA Finals 2022.
The Boston Celtics faced off against the Golden State Warriors to kickstart the NBA Finals. Things didn’t go according to the script for the Warriors as they gave away a double-digit lead and got outplayed in the 4th quarter and lost the game.
As a result, the Warriors now have an uphill task to climb. They need to win the next game or else there is a strong chance that Boston might close them out pretty quickly.
Klay Thompson knows what’s ahead for his team and is still optimistic about their chances going ahead. Following the loss in Game 1, he said, “I remember just putting [those Game 1 losses] past us, There’s no reason to hold on to a loss when you have another game so soon.”
He added, “I remember watching film and realizing, there’s many things we can do better, and applying those strategies. So it’s pretty simple. And I just know we’ll be better in Game 2. I’ll be better.”
Stephen Curry had a great start to game 1 as he scored 21 points in the 1st quarter of the game. However, his team slowly fazed out, and he himself didn’t perform well in the 4th quarter of the game. He knows that work needs to be done by him and his team.
Steph said, “It’s not ideal, But I believe in who we are and how we deal with adversity, how we responded all year, how we’ve responded in the playoffs after a loss. So learn a lot from that fourth quarter.” He added, “We know they are a good team,” Curry said. “So are we. We have to respond on Sunday.”
