Game 6 of the finals went down last night between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors and it was a pretty frustrating game for the Currys.
For Steph, it was a rare moment of losing his cool that had Twitter abuzz. After being called for his sixth foul and throwing his mouthpiece at a fan, Steph was ejected from the game. And, Twitter had a field day.

In Curry's defense, the kid he hit with the mouthpiece was wearing a long sleeve denim shirt and was probably about to dab.

Stephen Curry Responds to Jokes About his New Under Armour Shoe Collaboration
Ayesha Curry didn’t have it any easier. After her father was allegedly racially-profiled and almost arrested, which NBA security says was a case of mistaken identity, Curry was understandably frustrated. But, Ayesha may have caught a case of Twitter fingers when she tweeted and deleted, “I’ve lost all respect sorry this is absolutely rigged for money… Or ratings in [sic] not sure which. I won’t be silent. Just saw it live sry.” Unfortunately, the Internet can be an unforgiving place.
And tonight @ayeshacurry is learning that Twitter is forever whether you delete your tweet or not. Oh my. #NBAFinals pic.twitter.com/VTJaqbRc62

Hopefully, Steph and Ayesha’s mentions will be back to normal by Game 7.
