On Golden State's Stephen Curry. Dirk Nowitzki: I'm a huge fan. When he's on, in most of these third quarters, I'm yelling at the TV - 'Shoot!' Don't even pass. As soon as he crosses half court, I want him to pull up. There's a lot of great spot-up shooters in this league. But he knows how to shoot spot up, off the dribble. To me, he's one of the best shooters we have in the league right now. Not a lot of people can shoot the threes off the dribble like he can. He's fun to watch. Dallas Morning News

Stephen Curry strolled into Warriors’ shoot-around at the AT&T Center this morning with a smile on his face and no noticeable limp. Easy to see that his left ankle was feeling a lot better than it did before Sunday’s Game 4… or during Game 4… and after Game 4. San Jose Mercury-News

Curry took his third injection of the postseason before Game 4 after spraining his left ankle for a second time late in Game 3. He admitted after the game Sunday that he doesn't expect to be significantly more mobile the rest of the series, even though he still managed some big shots down the stretch in the Warriors' overtime win and wound up with 22 points. "He'll get treatment today, he'll get treatment (Tuesday)," coach Mark Jackson said. "We'll just see how he feels. I haven't seen him, I have not spoken to him. But it's good to have all day today and all day tomorrow to recoup and recover." Contra Costa Times

On Mother's Day some advice from Sonya Curry helped her son, Stephen, approach Sunday's Game 4 of the Spurs-Warriors Western Conference playoff series with the belief he could still be effective enough to help his team despite a sprained left ankle that was still swollen and sore. The Warriors' leading scorer, Curry suffered the sprain in the fourth quarter of Friday's Game 3, won by the Spurs, 100-91. Unsure he would be able to go after he awoke on Sunday, he said he received an injection that helped isolate the pain and allowed greater range of motion in the ankle joint. San Antonio Express-News

Afterwards he said it was a phone conversation with his mother on his drive home from Friday's game that helped him get over wondering if the fates had conspired against him, yet again. It was a natural reaction for a player who has had two surgeries on his oft-sprained right ankle and who earlier this season missed four games with a sprain of the left ankle he rolled on Friday. “She's my voice of reason,” Curry said. “I tried to vent my frustration because it seems like every time you get on a roll and feel somewhat healthy there's a setback."

"I'm pretty optimistic I'll be able to play in whatever the capacity, I'll be on the floor," Curry told a pool reporter on Saturday afternoon. "If I can give the team anything, I will play. I feel like if I can get to a point where I'm not hobbling and I can cut how I want to (he can play). It doesn't have to be 100 percent, as long as I can be confident that it won't do any further damage. I have a feeling I'll be at that point tomorrow, no problem." USA Today Sports

Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is a game-time decision with a sprained left ankle. X-rays were negative, a team official said, and no MRI was scbe taken. Curry is getting ‘round-the-clock treatment. Officially he’s a game-time decision. But his chances of playing are made dicey by the earlier start. Sunday’s game tips off at 12:30, giving Curry about 36 hours of rest and rehabilitation. Contra Costa Times
