Curry scores 40 in three quarters as Warriors stay perfect

It was his second 30 foot jumper of the game and fourth of the season. The rules are the rules and Curry has just to follow them.

Curry has raised his figures significantly.

When Harden and the real MVP met in the second game of the season, Curry finished with 25 points in a 20-point win over the Rockets.

In addition to Curry’s explosive game, shooting guard Klay Thompson contributed 21 points; small forward Draymond Green had 11 rebounds, nine assists, and blocked three shots, while center Andrew Bogut nabbed 11 rebounds. He made two free throws but was soon removed and did not return.

Over in the East, George has come back better than ever after missing most of last season thanks to a broken leg. He’s led the upstart Pacers to a 12-5 start, with 16 of those 17 games coming in October and November. However, this doesn’t mean that Curry isn’t a good creator anymore. Summarizing, Curry is now a scoring machine. His defense, ball-handling skills and high emotion have been crucial to the Warriors success and his willingness to do anything for a win clearly makes him the heart of the team.

Everybody is talking about Curry’s achievements and that is normal because time passes and the day will come when Lebron will not be the same, either in the near or in the distant future. The point is to write history. A Southern Conference game between Davidson (5-0) and Charlotte would not normally get any media attention, but because Curry was in the building there were cameras everywhere and the game’s highlights were actually featured Sportscenter. “Stan (Van Gundy, the head coach) told him, ‘we’d be a good team if you would play the four.’ He did and it increased his physicality so we ended up being a good team because of him and that’s what we have to have”. He is also playing better than past year, especially when it comes to stealing and rebounding, and in his defensive play. Their biggest difference though is what their teams do.

He said the 20-0 start to the season seems surreal. The Warriors remain the only undefeated team in the league at 20-0. The games between the two teams can still reveal a lot.

Hawks 96, Raptors 86 – Kyle Lowry scored 22 of his season-high 31 points in the fourth quarter, DeMar DeRozan added 17 points, and visiting Toronto rallied from 17 down in the third quarter to beat Atlanta.

One can certainly understand that Davidson wants to honor its academic code by forcing all athletes no matter what their professional or in curry’s case All-Star status may be to abide by the same rules as others.
