They were peaking and chasing records at the wrong end of the season imo. Not trying to put a downer on how fun it has been to watch and for the NBA in general... but six months is still a long way off. In a grinding league, these small injuries add up. Especially on a pure shooters' legs.

He made contact with another player, that's how it occurred not on its own.

injuries happen does not matter if you play more or less sometimes as in this case. Also i think you will find gsw has great bench rotation and curry is well rested. Sure they are in the mix for best NBA season ever but they haven't burnt out players doing it. Curry will need to get back soon though and i do believe his absence blows any chance of the bulls 72-10 record.
