Can anyone believe that the Golden State Warriors, who are holding the best record in the league right now, standing at the top of the Western Conference with a seven-game winning streak, is the same that hasn’t even been able to make the playoffs the past two seasons? In fact, Stephen Curry just revealed what it felt like being excluded from the Orlando Bubble.

He explained that missing that experience was hard for him.

The Orlando Bubble was definitely quite challenging for a lot of NBA players. At the peak of COVID-19, the league came up with a way to keep the matches going by introducing the Bubble.

This meant that all those who made the playoffs would have to stay confined in a hotel, with no physical interaction from the outside world, taking very tedious and serious precautions.

The mind-numbing part was to stay isolated in one’s room, away from families and friends for the entire duration. However, for Steph, nothing was worse than sitting that season out.

Despite hearing all about how dreadful it was for some players, he wanted nothing more than to just do what he loves: playing basketball.

Stephen Curry felt completely left out

For a team whose dynasty is considered one of the greatest, the past two years were a big blot on their legacy. However, nothing was worse than sitting out of the Bubble for their superstar.

Watching the bubble was the lowest point of those two years,” Curry told Yahoo Sports. “There was a part of me that felt it was nice to get refreshed, and a part of me really missed playing on that stage.

“That was the first time in seven years of not being in the playoffs. We know each player had their own experiences in the bubble, but I would have loved to have been there competing. I would say that was the lowest point in terms of my basketball experience because I felt so far away from it. This is what I love to do.”

However, all that is ancient history now. What matters is that the Golden State Warriors have brought back their A-game. Not only are they statistically, the best team right now, but are also giving Dubs fans hopes of another title.
