National Basketball Association Predictions: How many points will Stephen Curry drop tonight?

The old record of plus-99 was set by the 1961-62 Boston Celtics, a squad that finished the season with a 60-20 record on its way to the fourth of eight consecutive National Basketball Association championships.

Golden State had won their first four games by a record total of 100 points.

“You start to get creative, try to be more aggressive and just test out the hot hand”, Curry said as he has now stockpiled 118 points in just three games.

Memphis finally hit the 40-point mark in the third but trailed by 35 points after one of Curry’s three steals and subsequent layup. They’ll look to remain ideal when they play their next game on Friday night against the Denver Nuggets at Oracle Arena.

CLIPPERS GUARD JAMAL CRAWFORD “We had a couple of game-plan mistakes, and they made a few tough shots”. Golden State had nine of its 13 blocked shots by halftime, and the Grizzlies could only watch in horror as the deficit grew larger and larger. The Warriors started 5-0 last season – the best beginning in franchise history – and are aiming for their sixth straight victory when they conclude a three-game homestand that began with a 50-point win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Stephen Curry had 30 points, three rebounds and three assists while Ian Clark added 15 points for the Warriors. Memphis did a better job than most at holding Curry in check during the playoffs last spring, when he was limited to 24.5 points on 42.1 percent shooting in the six games.

“We had a lot of game-plan mistakes throughout the game”, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said.

Otto Porter added 19 points to help Washington win its second straight over San Antonio dating back to last season.

“You just try to keep your focus and know there’s going to be that opportunity to get back into it”. He led the league in scoring with 39.3 points per game and shot 58.8 percent from the field, including 48.6 percent from 3-point range and 95.5 percent from the foul line.

With Curry relegated to being a cheerleader on the sideline and Shaun Livingston running the show at point guard, the Warriors closed the quarter on a 12-2 run.

BOGUT CONCUSSION: Bogut is still going through the NBA’s concussion protocol after getting injured in last Tuesday’s season opener against the Pelicans.

Asked if he saw this scoring spree coming at all, Curry replied, “I felt confident in my game and prepared for the new season, mentally and physically”.

Even if he does go on to win the MVP award, Curry’s current pace isn’t sustainable.
