It is not just a coincidence the Warriors have been able to survive their minutes without Curry in the Butler era.

The Warriors announced an MRI revealed it was a Grade 1 hamstring strain and that the injury would be reevaluated in a week. That timeline meant he would miss Games 2, 3 and 4 with Game 5—scheduled one week from the announcement—up in the air.

With Stephen Curry out, it's not enough for Jimmy Butler to be the team's Batman. He'll need to dust off his Superman cape.
