The Hornets who dropped to 10-8 will face the 11-5 Bulls in Chicago on Saturday. Commenting on his team’s success, Curry also told reporters that the Warrior’s 20-0 record so far was nothing short of surreal.
“What I try to do is stay loose during the game and move as much possible so I don’t stiffen up”.
“The one thing that is disappointing, and that has to change is you can’t pick and choose when you’re going to be physical”, said Hornets coach Steve Clifford.
“But the shots I took, I’ve said it before, are the ones I practised”. The star point guard finished with 40 points on 14 for 18 shooting, five assists and three rebounds.
