Warriors tie franchise mark with 9-0 start

So far, Wiggins has tied a career high with 33 points on 15-of-22 shooting in a 117-107 victory at Atlanta. “To get down a deficit like we did, to roar back and be so close…” Curry maintained Thursday after the Warriors improved to 10-0 that he simply wants to be better and more consistent. Draymond Green started things off by nailing a 15-foot jumper off of an assist from Curry. A human heat check, Curry has broken the league record for 3-pointers made in a season in each of the last two years, and is on pace to smash it again this year.

It was another chastening night for the Grizzlies, who had been run ragged by the Warriors last week during a 119-69 defeat.

The Warriors went 18 of 38 from 3-point range while Minnesota was just 3 of 9. On the other hand, the Warriors shot almost 64 percent. “The team”™s 23 assists at that point were one more than it had the entire game the previous night at Memphis. They’ll have a tough time containing the Warriors, who are among the league’s highest scoring teams at 113.2 points per game. When Curry came back in with 6:35 left, he scored 11 points to finish Minnesota off for good.

If the Minnesota Timberwolves lose to the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night, they could have another chance to win their first home game of the season on Sunday when they host Memphis.

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

Kevin Martin’s three-pointer to open the final period made it 14 straight points.

Midway through the game, Yahoo!Sports reported Taylor is in serious negotiations to sell about 20 percent of the team to a group led by one of Memphis’ minority partners, Los Angeles private equity investor Steve Kaplan. The 21-points he put up in the first quarter is the fourth time he has tallied 20-points in a quarter according to ESPN. Curry also has produced six-30 point games.

With Steph Curry scoring 46 points — his third game of at least 40 points this season — to lead the way, the defending champions were wire-to-wire winners in pushing their record to 10-0, the best in franchise history, San Francisco and Philadelphia. Brooklyn scored six consecutive points to turn a tie score into a 99-93 lead with 3 1/2minutes remaining. Rookie center Karl-Anthony Towns had a double-double of 17 points and 11 rebounds, and Shabazz Muhammad added 16 points off the bench. They were led by Andrew Wiggins’ 19 points but he shot just 7-of-17 field goals.

All five Warriors starters finished in double figures.

Curry scored 21 points in the first quarter alone, exposing the Timberwolves perimeter defense that sorely missed Ricky Rubio, who continues to nurse a hamstring injury. The Timberwolves (4-3) have dropped their first three contests there for the first time since an 0-10 start in 1994-95.
