Everything comes down to this one Golden State Warriors vs. LA Clippers game on Sunday afternoon. In this decisive game of power, one will emerge gloriously heading into the Playoffs. The other? Well, the Play-In Tournament awaits. While Ty Lue has confirmed that he isn’t concerned about his team, Steve Kerr holds a different opinion.
Acknowledging the mighty Clippers, the HC is aware that the gap between their last meeting and Sunday’s game is vast. And, Stephen Curry’s injury raises serious concerns above all. Meanwhile, Chase Center is experiencing the action as the Warriors try to take down James Harden’s side. It won’t be an easy match, but then, the dynastic Dubs know how to steal wins in crucial games.
Meanwhile, the commentators in the game pointed out something important that surely hasn’t missed Steve Kerr‘s sharp observation. Both teams haven’t seen each other in 108 days. Simply put, the Clippers have yet to meet the Jimmy Butler of the Golden State Warriors as Kerr mentioned a few days ago. Meanwhile, the Dubs haven’t faced Zubac, Harden, and Leonard in a while.

Moreover, the Clippers won in the last three meetings. But does that matter? No. Moreover they are two different teams with different sets of strong zones. The LA Clippers have emerged as not only an offensive force, but defensively too they’ve build their identities. Meanwhile, the Warriors have a lot to worry about as their star boy, or rather Steve Kerr’s Golden Boy Stephen Curry‘s injury is adding to the stress.

Stephen Curry’s thumb sprain had thrown him on the “questionable” list for the LA Clippers matchup. However, good news emerged when he was given clearance to play the crucial match. Meanwhile, during the pre-game warmup, Curry said he wearing splint made of plaster underneath the tank to help stabilize that right belt. At the same time, it would provide protection against contact. The reason he doesn’t feel like he’s limited.
He’s adjusting to wearing something on his shooting hand again as he plays through the sprain. He also said he’ll be fine—as long as no one catches him with his hand in the cookie jar. However, Steve Kerr is worried about Steph’s impact in the game with the injuries. At the same time, the 59-year-old veteran coach confirmed the news that Curry would be on the floor against the Clippers.

So, here we are. One game. Two fates. While the Clippers come in hot, the Warriors cling to belief—and Curry. Yes, he’s hurt. But he’s also Steph. And Steph with a splint is still danger in disguise. Meanwhile, Kerr watches closely, nerves tucked beneath that calm grin. However, with both teams changed, old stats mean nothing now. In short, it’s do or die. And if Steph does show up? Well, cookie jar or not, the Dubs might just steal the show.
