Curry says Cavs’ Korver trade ‘had nothing to do with our mission’

Stephen Curry is a fan of basketball, so of course he noticed when Cleveland acquired Kyle Korver from Atlanta over the weekend.

“That’s a move for them that they thought was necessary, and we’ll see how it’ll play out,” Curry said after shootaround Tuesday, becoming the first member of the Warriors to speak publicly on the Cavaliers’ recent headline-grabbing trade. “That had nothing to do with our mission, our goal.”

Still, reality remains: Adding the 35-year-old Korver made Cleveland a more formidable out should Golden State face it in the Finals for the third straight year.
