Quote of the Day
“Obviously with Steph (Curry) out there, he demands two to three bodies when he’s out there on the floor. When he’s not, there’s no room for error. You can’t make mistakes. You can’t turn the ball over. You can’t give back all of those things. And then you’ve got to take the right shots.”
Jimmy Butler
