National Basketball Association Roundup: Warriors down T-wolves, remain unbeaten

The reigning MVP would be feeling it in the opening q, as he would hit be firing from downtown. A few still do say that he’s the best to ever play the game. “It was just kind of a low release”.

“MINNEAPOLIS “” Stephen Curry scored 46 points as the Warriors set two franchise marks with their 129-116 win at Minnesota on Thursday.

– The Warriors are off to a 10-0 start, the best in franchise history.

Curry, who shot 15 of 25 from the field, including 8 three-pointers, scored 21 of his total points in the first quarter on his way to collecting his second-highest tally of the season, following his 53 point performance against the New Orleans Pelicans on October 31.

Timberwolves immediately responded with a 14-0 run and later cut the Warriors’ lead to five points.

Curry has led the charge, shooting with a precision and range never before seen in this league.

Curry, who has broken the league record for 3-pointers made in a season each of the last two years, is on pace to smash it again.

Previous year Curry had a scary +16.6 per 100 possessions when playing.

But Curry answered with a three-point play followed by a gasp from the home crowd.

However, the Wolves closed the quarter on an 11-0 run, capped by guard Kevin Martin’s 18-foot jumper at the buzzer to pull within 97-87. It was just another day in the office for the mighty, unstoppable Warriors. Walton said Barbosa is expected to return to the team by Monday….

After the papers were signed the Warriors promptly lost 13 of the first 15 games under the new ownership. – Joerger on 21 Memphis miscues that led to 25 Golden State points. And Curry would be on fire as G-State would roll into Minnesota to tame the Timberwolves. “And the way teams are defending us on pick-and-rolls, he has a lot of opportunities moving forward to pick apart the defense with his lobs, passes to the weak side. He’s in the top five”. Harrison Barnes added 19 and was called upon to play minutes at center.

“We want to be at the best we can be, and if that’s 72, 73 wins, then so be it”, he said.

“Most assistant coaches tend to change a little bit [when they get a head position], and not for the good”, said Andre Iguodala, “He’s done a really good job of not creating an ego from the situation he’s been put in and he stays the same”.
