Steph Curry reminds us that preseason results don’t matter

The Golden State Warriors kicked off their preseason campaign with a tight 104–101 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers in Honolulu, a game that saw the Warriors trail by 12 points at halftime before resting key players like Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Al Horford. Despite the setback, Curry brushed off the result, emphasizing that preseason outcomes hold little weight over the long term.

With 17 seasons in the NBA under his belt, Curry recalled only two memorable preseason moments—one involving a buzzer-beating shot by Lindy Waters two years prior and another tied to Kobe Bryant—highlighting how fleeting such games truly are. The Warriors’ preseason record has historically shown mixed correlation with their eventual success, from dominant starts before championship runs to uneven performances ahead of title-winning seasons.

For Curry, the real highlight of the week was the team’s lively luau celebration, which overshadowed any concerns about the game’s outcome.
