The Celtics stole homecourt advantage by winning a game in San Francisco. Then they posted a 16-point win in Boston in Game 3. If there was ever a must-win situation in a non-elimination game, Game 4 was it. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/stephen-curry-shows-jayson-tatum-the-difference-between-a-superstar-and-a-star\/\">Stephen Curry took charge.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In front of a hostile Boston crowd, Curry put the Warriors on his back, scoring 43 points in a 107-97 Golden State victory. The two-time MVP showed rare emotion during the game, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/stephen-curry-unleashed-boston-celtics-fans-in-game-4-nba-finals-and-admits-his-mother-wasnt-happy\/\">talking back to the relentless crowd.<\/a> Recently, Curry did his part to help the people of Boston, although it didn't have anything to do with basketball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-stephen-curry-recently-admitted-he-had-some-extra-fire-playing-in-front-of-boston-celtics-fans\">Stephen Curry recently admitted he had some extra fire playing in front of Boston Celtics fans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"Stephen Curry Dishes Out Major Assist... to Boston?\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1250\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/curry-new.jpg?w=925&#038;strip=all&#038;quality=89\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1539993\" \/><figcaption>Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors speaks to the media after defeating the Boston Celtics 103-90 in Game 6 to win the 2022 NBA Finals at TD Garden on June 16, 2022, in Boston, Massachusetts. | Elsa\/Getty Images.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Celtics fans had a problem with the play of Curry's teammate Draymond Green during the first two games of the series. Green had a tough series, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/draymond-green-showing-if-you-cant-play-with-them-antagonize-them\/\">but he irked Celtics players and fans<\/a> with his antics on the court. He baited players with dirty play, and when the series shifted to Boston, Celtics fans let him have it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans booed Green every time he touched the ball. They chanted expletives at him throughout the series. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/klay-thompson-blasts-classy-celtics-fans-for-f-bombs-while-draymond-green-berates-reporter-swears-in-front-of-his-own-kid\/\">Klay Thompson blasted those fans<\/a> during a press conference, sarcastically labeling them &#8220;classy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curry admitted playing in front of that Boston crowd added a little extra motivation for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have so much experience in that setting,\u201d Curry said recently on J.J.

It was different because it was in Boston and in that hostile environment. It was different because we were tested in a way where this was new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen you see this fan base go at one of your guys and constantly berate him, cross the line, and do all that stuff, and you lose Game 3, and you\u2019re in that environment, you\u2019re like, \u2018Holy s***. This is going to be a dogfight.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He admitted he got a little loud himself with those fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI hit that one shot, and I started yelling at the crowd,\u201d he said. \u201cSaid this was going to be a different motherf***ing game. I said that. My mama got mad at me because of my word choice, but I was just unleashing a different level of \u2018I\u2019m here.
