After the game finished, the Warriors fans booed their team, which dropped to a 17-20 record and the 12th seed in the West.
It was another difficult game for the Warriors’ star Steph Curry, as he finished it with 15 points (4/13 FG, 3/8 3PT, 4/4 FT), 1 rebound, 6 assists, and 3 turnovers.
After being asked about the boos from the fans, Curry accepted it.
“We are obviously struggling, there’s nothing to cheer about,” Curry said. “I don’t take it any type of certain way. Honestly, I’m booing myself, our team in my head because of how we’re playing, so it is what it is. Fans are going to react the way that they want. It’s our job to give them something to cheer about, and we have not done that.”
Head coach Steve Kerr also took it as appropriate fans’ response to the recent results.
“We deserved it, for sure,” Kerr said. “Fell behind immediately. I think we’re just lacking confidence right now. You get to a stage, sometimes, where you just kind of lose your belief. And it happens.”
“And that’s what’s happened right now with our team the last few days. I think we’ve just lost the spirit and the confidence that has to carry you against talented teams night in and night out,” Kerr added.
Meanwhile, Klay Thompson believes it’s not a big thing.
“I don’t care,” Thompson said about the fans boos. “You supposed to lose sleep over it?”
The Warriors’ next matchup is a Friday night game in Chicago with the Bulls.
