The Golden State Warriors will have a tough time making it into the playoffs if their current string of play continues and superstar guard Stephen Curry is frustrated with their lack of effort following another loss.
The Warriors, who are battling to stay within reach of the Western Conference play-in tournament, fell to the New York Knicks on Monday night, but if they had won they could have remained ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers for the 9-seed in the Western Conference and close in on the Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks for the 7th and 8th seeds.
Curry spoke about the team’s issues and struggles.
“Maybe a week or two ago, the 6-seed was the motivation,” Curry said, according to NBC Sports. “Right now, I could care less about where you’re at. It’s just the consistency of how we are playing. That’s the most important thing. Honestly, who cares what seed you are? If you play like we did tonight — six, seven, eight, nine, 10 — whatever it is, doesn’t matter. You’re not getting very far.
“That’s the perspective and the focus. It doesn’t really matter where the standings are.”
