Portland shooting guard Seth did not fare so well with a 1-7 shooting night.
Speaking after the game, ‘I know what I’m capable of on the floor. The situation calls for me to be a little bit more aggressive and hopefully that’ll continue,’ said Curry, who came in shooting 37.1 per cent on 3 pointers this post-season.
‘Obviously it’s nice to see the ball go in. I didn’t shoot the ball well for 4 1/2 games the last series and got off to a good start tonight. I want to maintain that.
