“I’m the petty king, so I know all about everything, you can’t really be surprised by anything” - Steph Curry says he uses back-and-forth between fans as entertainment

Curry is entertained by the wrath of the opposing fans.

Steph Curry is one of the top players in the NBA today, which means he is often a target for opposing fan bases. The NBA Finals have not been any different, as the Golden State Warriors superstar has been a target for the Boston Celtics' fanbase.

After Boston Celtics fans took a shot at his wife's cooking, Curry responded with a shirt acknowledging her cooking. At a recent press conference, Curry said he enjoys the back-and-forth with fans.

"I’m the petty king. So I know all about everything and I use it as entertainment and have fun with it. The more you are on this stage, the more you realize the attention that is on you. How much it means to each fanbase. How much it means to these cities."

"You can't really be surprised by anything because there's a lot at stake when it comes to winning championships. Maybe back in the day, first year, first two years maybe, things catch you off guard because it's so new. You wonder how all these narratives kinda come up. These distractions pop up here and there."

As a veteran player, Steph Curry has experience dealing with hostile fans. During the NBA Finals, there are always narratives that develop, and the goal for players like Curry is to stay focused on the task at hand.

As someone who has reached several NBA Finals, Steph Curry understands why the occasion is so important to the people. He said:

"The more you get into these environments, the more you use them as entertainment and fun and embrace it. Honestly, I wouldn't want to have it any other way. Knowing that you are on this stage and playing for something that really matters to a lot of people."

With the series on the line for the Celtics in Game 6, the feud between Curry and Boston fans is likely to end soon.

The Warriors lead the series 3-2 and will look to seal another championship by winning Game 7.
