Steph Curry Ready For Rebuilt Warriors’ New Challenge

The Golden State Warriors will open the 2019-20 season with a brand new look, and Steph Curry is ready for that. The Warriors made five straight NBA Finals, and Curry believes that he will do the same with the newly constructed team.

Curry talked to media members after a practice round for the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament. He spoke about Kevin Durant, Andre Iguodala, DeMarcus Cousins and many others.

“I mean, the three years that we had were special,” Curry said. “With KD, we had three straight Finals appearances. We won two of them, and we accomplished a lot as a group.

“Everybody talks about the amount of talent that we had on that team, but that doesn’t guarantee that you can figure it out on the court, that you can put all the pieces together to be successful.”

Curry is really optimistic about his relationship with D’Angelo Russell despite the fact that they haven’t spent much time together.

“The chemistry will develop quickly. We’ll be really purposeful about that and trying to set the tone for how we’re going to play this year,” Curry said. “It’s about encouraging each other and having confidence that we’ll bring the best out of each other. Then when Klay [Thompson] gets back [from a torn ACL] as well, add him to the backcourt mix. It’s going to be fun.

“I’m excited, to be honest with you. Five straight years in the Finals and we’ve accomplished a lot, and three championships. There’s a lot to be proud of. But everybody wants a new challenge in terms of how do you get back to that level.”

The superstar is well aware of the fact that he is the oldest player on the roster.

“You talk about Andre and Shaun [Livingston], two guys that do things the right way, having the ultimate level of professionalism, leadership, and just have a presence when they walk in the room,” he said. “So it’s going to be fun, going to be hard to watch them on different teams. But look at all that we accomplished and those are things we’ll remember for a lifetime.”
