Steph would have ‘difficulty’ playing for the Warriors team, which is at the bottom originally appeared in NBC Sports Bay Area
Believe it or not, there is a scenario where Steph Curry could find himself playing for a team other than the Warriors.
However, it doesn’t seem likely.
Curry, exclusively interview with Andscape’s Marc J. Spearswas asked about his future with the Warriors and whether he would remain committed to his “Warrior for Life” aspiration if it meant playing with teams from last place in the league, Golden State, at the end of his career, like the NBA legends Kobe Bryant and Dirk Nowitzki did this with their respective teams late in their careers.
“It’s hard, right? I’ve always said I want to be a warrior for the rest of my life,” Curry told Spears. “At this stage in my career, I feel like this is possible. And you can still be competitive, it doesn’t mean you’ve secured the championship. realist. That doesn’t mean it will happen if you stay the course. You need to shake things up and keep reimagining what it looks like to evolve with the league it is in now, with where some of these talented teams are. .
“I’m taking it one step at a time, to be honest. I think it’s the only way I can protect my happiness. Plus, it allows me to enjoy being myself when I’m playing. And I will continue to ultimately make the decisions that are better for me and my career when it’s just about imagination. I want to win. Let’s put it this way, it’s a long-winded way of saying that if it’s a situation where you’re a bottom feeder and it’s just because you want to stay there. I would have a hard time with that, but I don’t think that will be the reality.”
As Curry points out, a scenario in which the Warriors — with him still on the roster — don’t compete year after year doesn’t seem likely. Team owner Joe Lacob won’t let that happen.
However, if there is a scenario where the Warriors, similar to the 2019-2020 NBA season where they posted a league-worst 15-50 record, are a bottom team, Curry could be playing elsewhere.
But rest assured, the Warriors will do everything they can to extend the championship window as long as Curry continues to play at a high level.
