Stephen Curry was the first one here, arriving more than a year before Lacob and Guber bought the team. Other than the owners, he’s probably going to be the last member of the dynasty standing, and he’ll continue to say goodbyes along the way. Then he’ll have his own. “You think about that more and more,” Curry said. “I’m not at the farewell yet. That’s just part of time. If you’re fighting human nature or fighting the inevitable in that, then … I don’t think you’re handling it right. Because you need a little bit of fear of what’s coming, what an end might look like, to inform decisions that you’re making now and appreciate what’s going on right now.”

NBA-WNBA shootout with Stephen Curry and Sabrina Ionescu is off. NBA’s Mike Bass: “We weren’t able to land on a plan we thought would raise the bar off of last year’s special moment. We all agreed not to proceed and will instead keep the focus on All-Star Sunday’s new format.” – 11:17 AM

Steve Kerr said he doesn’t know if Steph Curry (37 minutes) and the other veterans will go in Houston tomorrow night: “That’s what makes this loss more frustrating. We’re gonna get into Houston at 3 o’clock because the NBA in its infinite wisdom makes us play an 8:45 game.” pic.x.com/QMSpwKTtaB – 12:33 AM

Warriors lose to the depleted Mavericks in Dallas. Shooters were too cold (Curry/Buddy 5-of-19 on 3s) and too many first half missed layups. They still haven’t won three in a row since mid-November. This one could burn them in the standings. Record back to 27-27. – 12:14 AM

More on this storyline
“I didn’t go in there thinking I was talking about the All-Star Game,” Curry said of stopping into Silver’s office for a chat last offseason. “I know because we were hosting, and because it was in the Bay, he wanted my input. But I wanted to talk about something else. And then that kind of came up as just to be like a sounding board. He didn’t have any ideas at the time. … My advice was: It’s not a bad thing to change it up entirely and try something new, knowing that you could always come back to the traditional format if whatever you decide doesn’t work. “And then spitballing a bunch of different ideas to try to shorten the game a little bit. Create a different kind of scenario where you can try to inspire some competition. Obviously, it comes down to the players, whether you play or not. But I like where it’s at. It’s going to be different. It’s going to be critiqued. And that’s kind of what you want.” -via San Francisco Standard / February 14, 2025
So, how do you see your career ending in the right way, Steph? “Competitive,” Curry emphasized last week. “I’ve seen different scenarios. Like everybody talks about Kobe [Bryant] and his last years. From my vantage point, I’m comparing it to guys that only played for one franchise. Dirk [Nowitzki], Tim [Duncan], Kobe, from our era. … You don’t want to be in a situation the Lakers were in those last three years [with Bryant]. I know he came off the Achilles injury, but it was, like, they were a lottery team, and it was more just how many points can Kobe score down the stretch of his career. I don’t want to be in that scenario. -via San Francisco Standard / February 14, 2025
“My whole thing is, you have to be realistic. There’s probably not a move or a scenario where you’re gonna walk into a season or a playoff series as the perennial favorite. There’s just a lot of talent around the league. But to be competitive, where you have a chance — that’s what we want to see. I’m sure that’s what our fans want to see. Playing meaningful games, no matter how it ends. I think that’s what we deserve, and I hope that is the reality I get to live in this last part of my career.” The end is coming. He’s not fighting it. But Curry isn’t going to let it happen quietly. -via San Francisco Standard / February 14, 2025
