Golden State Warriors react to NBA championship defeat

  • Post-game reaction after the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Golden State Warriors 93-89 on Sunday, 19 June, to win the NBA championship.

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

    "Yeah, yeah, we're stunned. We thought we were going to win. I was extremely confident coming into tonight, especially having Draymond back from the suspension from 5 and now 7, Game 7, at home. But this is why you can't mess around. Not that we messed around, but this is why every game counts. Game 5 was really the key. That was the turning point of the whole series. We didn't play well enough to win. It was a tough game for us with the circumstances, and I thought they had two guys who played epic games, Kyrie and LeBron. And that changed the whole series. But with that said, I thought we were going to take care of business tonight at home, and we just couldn't get it done."

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

    "I don't know. I mean, we had a great regular season. Did something no team's done before. Fell short in the last game of the season. It hurts, man. I mean, that's all I'm really kind of marinating on right now. Just proud of every single guy that stepped foot on the floor for our team this year. It wasn't easy what we accomplished, and it's not an easy pill to swallow what we didn't accomplish. So got to just take the good with the bad. Understand that we hopefully will have many more opportunities to fight for championships and be on this stage because it is what it's all about. Proud of every single one of our guys that helped us get here."
