Stephen Curry put the Mavericks to sleep after leading the Warriors in a comeback win

For the most part, Steph is always quiet on the floor. He doesn’t engage in much talking or stir up the heat. However, at the bottom of it all, the Baby Face Assassin has the will to do anything to win. And his cold-hearted killer comes to the front in tough situations. So repeating his theatrics against the Grizzlies, Curry hit yet another dagger in these playoffs.
