HOUSTON (AP) – Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors aren’t worried about a letdown in Game 4 after taking a 3-0 lead over the Houston Rockets in the Western Conference finals.
“It’s easy for us to stay hungry because none of us have really experienced this before or accomplished really anything,” Curry said.
The Warriors are one win away from reaching the NBA Finals for the first time since they won the 1975 title after Curry poured in 40 points in a 115-80 win in Game 3 on Saturday night. The MVP made seven 3-pointers in the victory to set an NBA record for most 3s in a postseason with 64.
Coach Steve Kerr doesn’t believe anything will change for his team now that the Warriors are on the cusp of advancing heading into Monday night’s game in Houston.
“They know that the most important thing is just the next play,” Kerr said. “Keying in on competing and paying attention to all the little details, focusing on the mission and not the result, that’s always been our mantra and it’s especially true in moments like these. Just keep going, keep pushing.”
