The Golden State Warriors took a 2-0 lead on the Cleveland Cavaliers Sunday night, and fans had a lot to say about it. Twitter was ripe with praise for Steph Curry, who played an incredible game, hitting nine 3-pointers (a finals record) and a total of 33 points, plus eight assists and seven rebounds. LeBron and the Cavs could not hold the Warriors back, eventually losing 122-103.
In an ABC Interview transcribed by NYT, Curry spoke of cracking the 3-point finals record set b Ray Allen in 2010. "It means a lot," he said. "As I’ve gone through my career I’ve been blessed to play, Reggie (Miller) and Ray Allen are the two names that always pop up at the top of all the 3-point shooter lists, so any time you’re mentioned with those type of names is pretty special."
Fans on Twitter had praise for both sides, questions for the refs, jokes for Lebron (his red eye was a subject of conversation), and lots of memorable highlights. Check out what they had to say below.
