Transcendent Stephen Curry scores 43, lifts Warriors to win to even ... (NBC Sports)

In a career of transcendent games, Stephen Curry had one of his best, scoring 43 and lifting the Warriors to a Game 4 win over the Celtics.

We did get some good shots off, but we would like to get a little bit more downhill and get some things to the rim and kick out. Besides Curry, the most talked about move of the night will be Kerr putting Draymond Green on the bench for four critical minutes in the fourth quarter — and the Warriors being +7 in those minutes. In the face of that, the Celtics settled too much. The Celtics stars put up numbers but were not efficient. Down the stretch, Kerr tried to sub offense ( Jordan Poole) for defense (Green) where he could, and Green made a couple of big plays down the clutch. I mean, Boston’s got obviously, best defense in the league.

Stephen Curry had 43 points to lead the Golden State Warriors to a 107-97 road win over the Boston Celtics in Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night.

Williams was listed as questionable coming into the game with the knee injury that kept him out at the end of the regular season and the start of the playoffs. The amped-up crowd spent much of the game booing Green, chanting an obscenity at him that is usually reserved for Bucky Dent, and jeering his many misses. Curry’s ankle was an issue coming into the night after Boston’s Al Horford landed on it late in Game 3. “The things he does, we kind of take for granted at times, to go out there and put us on his back. Marcus Smart, who scored 18 points, hit a three-pointer to give the Celtics a 94-90 lead with just more than five minutes remaining. Andrew Wiggins had 17 points and 16 boards for the Warriors, who have won at least one road game for 26 consecutive playoff series.
