When the NBA season started, when you thought of a battle between GS/MIN, I imagine many thought that would be a game that took place between two contenders in the Western Conference. Unfortunately, that's not exactly what we had last night, as both teams are fighting for their lives to get out of the Play In. 

The beauty of the NBA though is that you can still have a wildly entertaining game between two Play In teams. The star power was there, the drama was there, and by the end of it we were reminded of a very good lesson both in basketball and in life.

You have to be certifiably insane to chirp Steph Curry.

This is true at any point of a 48 minute game really, but especially late in a close game. That, is a death wish. We've known that for years now after countless and countless Steph Daggers. At home, on the road, it doesn't matter. I'd go so far as to say that he's the #1 player in the league right now that you should never, ever, ever, even consider chirping. I don't care how much you love your favorite team or how much you think it's going to impact him. It's not. In reality, he's going to do what he always does and rip your heart out.

Our latest example came at the end of their win last night in MIN. Sure the Warriors blew their 25 point lead, but when it came time for someone to make a dagger, guess who rose to the occasion?

Steph Curry

And wouldn't you know, he was as ruthless as ever

How can you say you've seen Steph do this shit a million times on TV and then also think it's a good idea to sit courtside and chirp him? You should know better! We have a mountain of evidence that tells you this is the worst possible thing you could do as a fan. You're asking for him to make a dagger three right in your eye ball and then wiggle/celebrate/go night night right in your face. It's what makes Steph Curry who he is!

It also didn't help that Ant missed his chance at a game winning 3, but that's because he's not Steph. Once Steph hits the dagger on you, that's it. The Warriors always find a way to win. This time it was because both Naz Reid and Rudy Gobert couldn't get a rebound on a missed FT following that shot. The point is, the chirping clearly did not work

and maybe this is just me speaking from experience as someone who has also had his heart repeatedly ripped out via Steph Curry daggers, but you have to be legitimately insane to go the chirping route with him. He is NOT mentally soft. You don't break Steph Curry, he breaks you. I get being a fan of your team and wanting to do your part to help them win, that's normal.

It's just that when Steph Curry is involved in this equation, your move is to shut the fuck up and don't poke the bear. The more you chirp the more powerful he gets, and it results in shots like that. Now you're going viral for all the wrong reasons. 

My guess? Those two learned their lesson. Sometimes in life you need to learn things the hard way. You need to fuck up in order to realize you fucked up. Chirping this dude? Yeah, that qualifies as fucking up
