San Antonio Spurs 99-121 Golden State Warriors: Twitter reacts to Stephen Curry's big game vs DeMar DeRozan & crew
Stephen Curry did most of his work in the first three quarters of the Golden State Warriors-San Antonio Spurs contest, giving him some much-needed rest in the fourth. The 32-year-old played just 31 minutes including a token appearance in the final period as the Warriors dismantled the Spurs 121-99.
The Warriors’ 2-time MVP had 26 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists on the night against one of the better teams in the West.
Curry had a dazzling performance while rookie James Wiseman, Andrew Wiggins and Kelly Oubre Jr. provided ample support. DeMar DeRozan could only make 15 points on 3-of-8 shooting from the field.
Golden State Warriors dominated the highlights against the San Antonio Spurs
After Stephen Curry effortlessly escaped from his opponent at one point in the game, the Golden State Warriors featured it in their highlights.
Certain fans observed that he has been doing it since he came into the league.
Curry also made a super slick move that wowed everyone on Twitter.
Meanwhile, a fan also brought up a Google search for LeBron James’ dad, which points to how Curry and his Warriors sonned the LA Lakers by winning three of their four NBA Finals matchups.
Someone even apologized on behalf of Curry for the San Antonio Spurs' strained ankles.
The San Antonio Spurs also had a few highlights from the game, including an awkward jumper that Patty Mills shot over Kent Bazemore. And we do mean “over.”
A Twitter user thought about what would have happened had Stephen Curry been the one who shot this.
When watching a Golden State Warriors game, one almost always sees Draymond Green teaching James Wiseman a thing or two. However, someone just had to bring up the 2016 NBA Finals.
San Antonio Spurs couldn't rally in the fourth
With the Golden State Warriors leading by double figures throughout the fourth quarter, the most talked-about play was Damion Lee smacking San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson in the face and getting ejected with a flagrant foul 2 in the process.
However, it didn’t matter to this Dubs fan account that still cheered the Warriors vicariously through a meme.
With the win, the Warriors are now 8-6 this season. Though that’s not exactly the kind of record to celebrate, someone thought it was great to bring out a Stephen A. Smith celebratory dance. This was seconded by another fan.
The game featured several heroes for the Golden State Warriors while the San Antonio Spurs had very few players who contributed.
The San Antonio Spurs will likely go back to the drawing board wondering what happened to them.
