Curry: Last Play to Prevent Harden Being ‘The Hero’

But on a night when (Stephen) Curry committed a game-high six turnovers and nearly threw Game 2 away down the stretch, it was a last-ditch defensive stand that kept the Warriors perfect and put the Rockets in a 2-0 hole.

“It was kind of me and Klay (Thompson) and Andre (Iguodala) on the run on the other side, retreating,” said Curry, who paired with his Splash Brother, Thompson, to wrap up (James) Harden as the game clock drained to :00. “You saw James kind of put his head down and you know he probably wasn’t going to pass in that situation. … At that point, it’s just, ‘Don’t let him get a shot off and try to be the hero.’”
