I don't think that's a health thing though. I think he's just getting back into the swing of things at this pace.

Yeah, even in Curry's interview he's said the game speed and rhythm is the only thing holding him back, not his health.

He's said he is conscious of getting banged around a bit due to his health issues throughout the season, but he's said that's a mental thing, not a physical limitation.
Pretty much everyone acknowledges he wasn't 100% coming back from a grade 1 sprain 2 years ago, and how he's had a grade 2 sprain to come back from...

The warriors have already said his ankle won't be better until the offseason. He's limited, but his limited is better than 90% of the players in the league.

I'm happy, although the 3-point disparity is worrisome

I hope we can hang in there and steal one

It's certainly closer to this than "hobbling" or "barely able to move" IMO

He's coming back from a knee injury, no?

What are you talking about? Aren't you listening to the halftime show? The game is over.

I got sideways with the ankle talk.

Regardless, I don't see anything from Curry or GS that makes me remotely question their ability to take down Houston. We'll find out soon enough.

Win or lose, I'm really hoping for an all-time series. The star power is definitely there.

This is the best matchup in a conf finals we have seen in some time. Neither team will go quietly I hope. (As with the east, again I hope)

Playoffs have been boring this year. We deserve more. The reg season was fantastic

Me too. I'm pulling for Houston because I think Cleveland has a chance against Houston.

Hobbled Curry blowing by Jrue off the dribble.
