Stephen Curry 'Was Feeling Pretty Good' When He Went Up for Dunk That Got Rim Stuffed

Stephen Curry described his missed dunk at the end of Saturday's Game 3 between the Warriors and Rockets as "pretty self-explanatory," according to Nick Friedell of ESPN.com.

With time running out in overtime during Houston's 126-121 victory, Curry looked to cut the lead to three late as he drove to the rim uncontested. Instead of making a finger roll or putting the ball off the glass and in the hoop on a layup, however, Curry went for a dunk and got rim stuffed. The Rockets then recovered the loose ball and ran out the clock as Golden State elected not to foul.
