For Stephen Curry and the Warriors, a last two -year window?

Completely dominated by the Timberwolves in the conference semi-final (1-4), the Warriors are now on vacation. To see them crossing a lap was somewhat unexpected a few months ago, when we remember that they struggled to chain successes before the arrival of Jimmy Butler (from 25-26 to 23-8), and this road trip is therefore nothing of an affront.

Even if, despite the elimination of Houston in seven games in the first round, Golden State may feed some regrets of this 2025 playoff campaign, given the injury of Stephen Curry who weighed down the team's chances against Minnesota…

“” It's disappointing, of course, we will imagine and think that we could have won everything with health, but you are going ahead … »» has confided The leader All-Star, the day after the end of the season of his family. “” When we look at the sample of the last two months and even the series against Houston, when our mind was focused on a specific objective, we had what it was necessary to accomplish this goal and arrive at the stadium where to play at a very high level. Does that mean that we can win a new title? We hope. »»

A good base on which to rely

At 37, Stephen Curry is obviously aware that he will no longer have a lot of opportunities to add a fifth title to his record. Nevertheless, the good end of the Warriors season, influential defensively, and the presence of the trio Jimmy Butler – Draymond Green – Steve Kerr by his side now allow him to consider more serenely the rest …

“” We still have two years of contract to all four, we want this adventure to last as long as possible He recalled, without failing to put a certain form of pressure to his leaders. “” But it is above all a question of knowing what this team needs for next season, of answering this question during the summer and that everyone is preparing individually to hold on a new season of 82 games, hoping to have a little more margin at the end, so as not to have to fight for two months if only to play the playoffs … but I am enthusiastic, because there is clarity [à la tête de l’effectif]even if there are also a lot of decisions to be made during the summer. »»

To believe Draymond Greenthe friend of Stephen Curry, there is also not too much concern for the future. At least, not after the arrival of a player like Jimmy Butler (17.9 points, 5.9 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 1.7 interception after his departure from the Heat).

“” The biggest change to make was that we needed someone like Jimmy and this change was made, so I think the hardest part is behind us Simply summarized the interior. “” It's always more complicated to get these kinds of players through an exchange where free agency, it doesn't come often. So it's done and it puts us in a much better situation for this offseason than that of a year ago, where we were looking for that. »»

Jimmy Butler, the missing link?

A Jimmy Butler Who, three months after his arrival in California, could not dream of a better environment and better destination after his stay in Miami…

“” I am totally satisfied with the basketball player that I am and the way I play The winger explained. “” Land here by being aware that I am the lieutenant of Steph, I think it is a very good thing: we are talking about one of the greatest players in history. I am fortunate to be his partner for a few years, I hope, and it's just refreshing. Then there are young talented players who want to succeed, to do things well, and the energy is at the highest. So I don't think we can ask for something more. I landed here, everything was put in place very quickly and I feel good. I am happy, I found my joy as Buddy would say [Hield] And I am very lucky to be there. »»

Like Draymond Green, Stephen Curry can only be delighted to see that Golden State can now count on Jimmy Butler. Especially since they will be a whole summer in front of them to perfect their automatisms and arrive in great shape at the start of next season.

“” There was a lot of blah-blah to the fact whether or not it is the right exchange to make, but from his first match in Chicago to last night, his integration was obvious »In judged Curry, concerning Butler. “” We complete himself well and me. He brought us so much confidence, this conviction that we could beat anyone and that we could climb in the standings … [Son transfert] was a success in my eyes and, from now on, you have to build it on this, hopefully, a full season to do it. I can't wait. »»
