Steve Kerr says he's 'Disappointed' with Steph Curry, Jokes about missing 106th three

Additionally, Steve Kerr reacted to his feat during practice, where he shot 105 back-to-back three-pointers.

“I think his previous record was 77. That’s insane,” Kerr said, amazed at Curry's skill. He spoke about the Guinness Book of World Records, thinking that as they now have the video, the 105 shots should be on the book. Later, Kerr joked about the situation, speaking about how him missing a shot was disappointing. 

“So he choked and couldn’t make the 106th one,” Kerr said, adding that it was very "disappointing" and the three-point NBA champion just "didn't have it in him". "If you’ve made 105 in a row you keep going. I’m pretty sure he missed and just wasn’t up to the challenge".

Draymond Green – who has missed three games in a row – also commented on the situation. While he was not on the court when Curry made those threes, he had no doubt his teammate did it. "As I’ve always said, obviously the greatest shooter I think to ever play this game". Green added that was not surprising and if anyone told him about the 105 shots, he would say it was Curry. 
 

"He’s capable of it. Anything with shooting the basketball he’s capable of doing it".
