Stephen Curry played 'a lot' of pickup with Chris Paul this summer: Fit will be seamless
Anthony Slater: Stephen Curry played “a lot” of pickup with Chris Paul this summer. He called it “mad fun”. It’s very clear that Curry isn’t worried at all about the offensive fit next to Paul (“seamless”). The question is the defensive end. Here is the full soundbite. pic.twitter.com/eqCm6qD2la

Here’s Steve Kerr discussing how the Warriors split up point guard duties when Chris Paul, Steph Curry and Draymond Green are all on the floor. He called it a key thing to “observe and help develop.” He said Paul has noted he needs to run the wing when Draymond pushes. pic.twitter.com/1XzBDQkdFJ – 4:41 PM

More on this storyline
Dalton Johnson: Second day in a row Steph Curry and Chris Paul are getting work in together after Warriors practice pic.twitter.com/wG8TlZ5xbF -via Twitter @DaltonJ_Johnson / October 4, 2023
Kerr was discussing this team’s theoretical second unit. Paul will start in the preseason opener on Saturday next to Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Kevon Looney. He may find his way into the starting lineup regularly even when Green is back. But it’s clear Paul’s rotation pattern will have him on the floor when Curry sits. It was maybe the main reason for the trade. “We’re going to run plenty of pick-and-roll because Chris is one of the best pick-and-roll players in the world,” Kerr said. “But he’s also showing he’s very interested in incorporating some of the stuff we already do — our split cut game and our movement. He’s such a smart player that he’s already figured out ways to be effective. We’re going to lean into him and he’s going to lean into us, and we’ll meet halfway and the offense will form.” -via The Athletic / October 4, 2023
“Klay would guard the four man,” Kerr said. “He’s so physically strong. He’s so used to guarding post-up players after switches. We think Klay can guard as a four this year. We’ll put him in coverage where he has to defend pick-and-roll as a four. We’re planning on doing that and seeing how he does.” In the backcourt, Curry and Paul face an obvious height disadvantage and will face their fair share of targeted attacks. “What we’ve found playing against Chris was that on switches, he’s just a rock,” Kerr said. -via The Athletic / October 4, 2023
