'I'm excited because we can play a lot better' - Kerr

  • Intro:

    Post-game reaction after the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 104-91 on Sunday (14th June), to take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven NBA Finals.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors Guard:

    "We fought hard all year and put ourselves in good position now to go to Cleveland and hopefully close it out. So we're confident. We're not getting ahead of ourselves. In the locker room, if you walked in there was the exact same after a regular season win. But we know the sense of urgency of the moment. It's a good feeling to get a win in Cleveland and understand we can get it done and how we need to get it done. So ready for the opportunity."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Steve Kerr, Golden State Warriors Head Coach:

    "Well, the closeout game is always the hardest game in every series, but particularly in The Finals. What I'm excited about is I think we can play a lot better, and that's what I told our team, and I think we can do much better. I thought we were a little scattered at times, a little rushed. We had 17 turnovers compared to 7 the other night. We can be a little more organized offensively. But all in all I loved the defensive intensity. We made a few mistakes here and there, but our guys are competing like crazy, and that's what it takes."

    SOUNDBITE (English): David Blatt, Cleveland Cavaliers Head Coach:

    Q: When Steph Curry gets hot like he did, what more can you do to stop him?

    "That's a good question. That was really a good question."

    Q: Thank you.

    "Not a lot you can do, honestly. He made some terrific shots. Now there were a few that we made mistakes and we went under or we didn't stay connected, and that's on us. But there are a few that he made, more than a few that were extremely difficult shots, high, high-level shots by a high-level player. Sometimes you've got to take your hat off to the other guy. He made some tremendous shots. That's respect."
