Golden State's Stephen Curry joked about singer Rihanna on Saturday after the famous Cleveland Cavaliers fan's courtside antics during the NBA Finals opener.


The Barbados born actress-singer bowed to Cleveland star LeBron James, dismissed hecklers among the hometown Warriors supporters and got a quick staredown from Kevin Durant after her assistant heckled him before a third-quarter free throw in Golden State's 113-91 victory on Thursday.

Asked if Rihanna's music was banned from the pre-game locker room musical offerings played by the Warriors, Curry said, "I don't think it was on there to begin with."

James said he blocks out all the crowd noise, even supportive shouts, to focus on the game, especially on the road as his Cavaliers are for the first two games in the best-of-seven championship series.

"I really don't hear the noise. I couldn't really care less," James said. "It really doesn't matter to me. I'm just here to play ball and compete for a championship." Stories about Rihanna's hoops fan devotion to James also get ignored.

"The narrative and people writing articles and things like that, I don't care. Those things doesn't bother me."
