Besides being the greatest shooter of all time, his team spirit and capability to hold together a team has shown a lot this season.

Stephen Curry is very aware of the matchup he has coming ahead of him this Friday. The Warriors are about the face the first timers of the Celtics who have shown their power against some of the toughest players in the league as well as the former champions. Curry acknowledged Jayson Tatum as a very skilled athlete who will put the Warriors to the test, according to him.
But another problem is the fact that the Warrior will have to go against the reigning defensive player of the year, Marcus Smart. Throughout his career, Steph has averaged just 24.1 points per game against the DPOY. Between 2016 and 2019 Steph only put up 19 points per game while Smart was defending him. Besides that, the Celtics happen to be the only team with a winning record 9-7 against GSW since 2014.
Vince Carter says Celtics will have to be physical with Stephen Curry
As the Warriors vs Celtics near, many are saying that Boston’s defenses will probably hinder the Dubs chances of winning the title. Vince Carter also had a few words based of these takes saying, “I definitely think you have to get physical with him, because if you allow Steph Curry to run freely and be the dictator. You can’t allow him to be the dictator.”
“Back in the day when Cleveland won the championship, how they got back in it was because they were physical with him. They’ve seen this story before. You best believe they will have a counter for it,” said Carter. The Warriors experience are going to be a big factor for their possible title win this season especially against a team that is fairly new to the intensity of finals games.
