The Warriors will try to take a 2-0 lead when the Warriors and Cavs meet at Oracle Arena on Sunday for the second game of the NBA Finals. The Warriors are hopeful they will get off to a better start in Game 2 after being down 10 in the first quarter of Game 1.

Steph Curry will also look to be more aggressive in Game 2. The Splash Brother only knocked down two out of his three triples in Game 1. Curry loves the three point shot and that’s something he inherited from his father. During the media session on Sunday, Curry admitted that he loves to shoot three pointers because his dad did the same. The official NBA Twitter account provided the tweet:

It’s safe to say that Dell and Steph Curry are the best father-son three point shooting combo in the history of basketball. Dell was known as a sharpshooter during his 16-year career in the NBA and passed on those skills to his son. Steph is now contending for the title of greatest shooter of all time and he still has several years left in his career.
As a son, you always want to make your father proud and growing up you emulate your dad in every way. Steph did that growing up, so he’s been copying one of the better shooters this league has ever seen since he first picked up a basketball.
