Stephen Curry admits to reading haters’ tweets

Four-time NBA champion Stephen Curry didn’t try to make it dramatiche simply admitted. During his appearance on the Mind The Game podcast, v Golden State Warriors The star told Steve Nash and LeBron James that he read the tweets at halftime, especially those from the Stephen Curry haterswhenever he had a bad game. The moment passed with a mixture of laughter and disbelief, even for longtime Warrior followers who thought they already knew every weird thing about his routine.

Stephen Curry said the habit at halftime started out of curiositysomething even the Warriors didn’t know about at the time. When his shot wasn’t falling, he was scrolling. He saw the jokes. He saw the reviews. And instead of letting him pull it, he let it light the fuse. “I’m not proud of it, but it was a fun time,” he said. He described how he grabbed his phone, read a few lines, then snapped back into focus the moment his coach walked through the door. Quick twitch. A strange kind of motivation. But the motivation is all the same for the Warriors.

Nash couldn’t hide his reaction to what the Warriors star shared. “Unbelievable,” he said, shaking his head. LeBron sat back, stunned and amused that Curry, of all people, would open X, formerly Twitter, with the game hanging in the balance. However, the honesty made the story even more difficult.

“I’m not proud of it, but it was fun. … I made it possible for the younger generation to be like you, to find motivation from anywhere.”
