Story summary

Steph Curry recently expressed his feelings about not playing alongside Klay Thompson anymore on "The Stephen A. Smith Show." Curry, who has been without Thompson for three seasons since Thompson left to join the Dallas Mavericks and then signed a two-year $11.5 million contract with the Miami Heat over the summer, said he misses Thompson every day. However, Curry acknowledged that changes are part of NBA life as players grow and move on from their former teams. The duo's separation marks an end to the Warriors' iconic trio that brought four NBA titles to the organization, including a record-breaking 2015 season when they finished with 73-9 wins. Curry looks forward to reminiscing about their achievements over a glass of bourbon upon retirement.
