Hot start. 20 points in 8 minutes.
But in his home dwelling...the hi-top faded warrior is revered. *Smack!* The sound of his palm blocking the basketball... the sound of thousands rising, roaring... the sound of "get that sugar honey iced tea outta here!"

He's unfair and that's why he's the MVP. But they are defending him so so poorly.

What is Davis doing dropping on every pick and roll. You must hedge/ blitz/ meet him at the 3 point line.

Don't know why Gentry isn't slowing the game down. You're not gonna win running against the Warriors, especially with the terrible defenders the Pelicans have.

He's playing fantastic, and this game is showing me enough to feel comfortable saying I'm glad OKC didn't go with Gentry. He's shooting the lights out, but NOLA is just not defending him well at all. And Davis is living on the perimeter.

But Big Perk :D!

Curry is insane...

Curry didn't waste any time to bring out his A game this season, great news for the team and the fans.
They are very dependent on him though, Klay and Iggy gotta step up the O game.

This season I really want the general population to see just how important Curry is on offence for our team. I know that mostly everyone on the PC board can see it, but it's annoying to read that Curry is just doing good because he's on a stacked team. I think there's some reservation about thinking that a 6-3, supposedly unathletic PG could be this good. Good thing is, he looks to be on a mission against all those doubters of him and the Warriors. Let's go!

I know what you mean...but you really don't want that. Because if that's something that becomes obvious, it means the Warriors aren't as good as they'll probably need to be.

Skill player like Nash, just keeps improving. Would be interesting if the team wasn't quite so good, I'd love to see him set some unbreakable shooting records.

Yeah true. It's probably not the best thing for the team if that happens. But still, it boggles my mind how his gravity, unselfishness and playmaking all make this offence look, and perform, at an amazing level, and how it goes relatively unnoticed, instead getting overtaken by the 'stacked' narrative.

Their loss I guess :) But it can be hard talking about Curry sometimes outside these forums.

If it's any consolation, we on the PC Forum are big Curry fans. Hell he was just voted in as I believe the 16th highest peak ever (I was arguing for him as high as 10 or so). There are a few posters (myself included) who believe best offensive player in history is in play for the dude.

Best PG in the league today. I don't know how it's still a discussion. What more does he have to do?

Curry reminding everyone that he's a spectacular outlier of a player. So disgustingly good... I enjoy watching him, because he doesn't actually just spam threes. He drives and he finishes well in the lane, he's got handles and he's just so QUICK at popping the shot from wherever. Really a blast to watch.

I would like to see him avg more minutes compared to other guards . . See how mentally tough he is as MVP and championship. Really want to see how great can he be. . Another possible question is how does klay play this year? I don't how curry going do if Klay has bad start to the year .

Don't think he is anything like Nash. I think guys fear Curry much more on the floor than they ever did with Nash on it.
