Warriors Are Now 20-0

Stephen Curry also kept rolling, playing in front of a friendly crowd in his home state of North Carolina, Curry dropped 40 points, including 28 in the third quarter.

Hollis Thompson scored 13 points for the 76ers, who ended their record-tying 0-18 start and their 28-game skid dating to last season that was the longest in major USA professional sports with a 103-91 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. But it is when he is racking up those points that shows just how dominant he has been this season.

Reigning MVP Curry had 40 points in three quarters at the Time Warner Cable Arena on Wednesday.

Toronto Raptors 96, Atlanta Hawks 86: Kyle Lowry fired in 22 of his season-high 31 points in the pivotal 39-20 fourth quarter and the visiting Raptors (12-7) stormed from 17 down in the third to clip the Hawks (12-9) for their fifth win in six games. He scored the final 24 points in the quarter, and the Warriors won 116-99.

“The more pressure, the bigger the moment, the more comfortable our guys feel”, interim head coach Luke Walton told reporters.

“The Hornets cut the Warriors”™ lead to eight in the third before Curry began his barrage.

“It felt good to get one”, Bryant said.

Everyone in attendance was a Curry fan, either for the father or the son, based on the amount of jerseys, both Hornets and Warriors, with the No. 30, worn by both Currys.

“It says a lot about our focus night in, night out, we don’t always play our best but we just try to find different ways to win and that’s the strength of our team”. Nic Batum topscored for the Hornets with 17 points, Kemba Walker, completely outplayed by Curry went 2-out of-16 and finished with 4 points. “We’re not focusing on the actual streak, I think that’s why we’re able to keep racking up the wins”. For much of this season, it appeared the five-time National Basketball Association champion’s shooting touch had disappeared. Following a 3-0 October, the Warriors swept the November slate (16-0), giving the team its first undefeated full calendar month in franchise history. He made 94 three-pointers over this span. “He played here as one of the original Hornets, and he was the last original Hornet to leave”. He started it off with three free throws, then a drive, then came back to hit, in succession, a 3-pointer, a fastbreak layup, two more 3-pointers, a layup, and then two more 3-pointers. Perhaps most impressively he’s shooting better from 3-point range (46.3%) than he is overall (45.5%) this season.
