Stephen Curry reacts to Damian Lillard's controversial comments on "meaningless games"

The Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard made headlines past week with his comments about the NBA's potential plans for restarting the 2019-20 season. He stated that his team don't have a true opportunity to get into the playoffs, as NBA restart will throw them out for meaningless games. Speaking to the Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes, he said: "If we come back and they're just like, 'We're adding a few games to finish the regular season,' and they're throwing us out there for meaningless games and we don't have a true opportunity to get into the playoffs, I'm going to be with my team because I'm a part of the team. "If we come back and I don't have an opportunity to make the playoffs -- I will show up to work, I'll be at practice and I'll be with my team. I'm going to do all that and then I'm going to be sitting right on that bench during the games." The Golden State Warriors' Steph Curry has reacted to Lillard's controversial comments. In an interview with the "The Life Podcast" with Anthony Morrow and Justin Jack, Curry said: "I feel what he's saying because it's hard mentally to go with this long of gap, and then prepare for games you know don't matter. I get it. "It's a hard thing to put your mind in that space, 'I'm gonna go out here and compete and bust my a-- and know in five games we're just gonna be back in the offseason again.'" Warriors re-opened Chase Center facilities Monday so players could work out again, according to NBC Sports Bay Area's Logan Murdock. However, all indications are that the team won't be playing any additional games this season, and will not be included among the teams that eventually will take the court in Orlando.
