The duo of Steph Curry and Draymond Green has already been on full display this season as the Warriors sit atop the standings in league with a 12-2 record.

Steph Curry Gets No Respect From Refs - and It's a Problem
The Golden State Warriors made a statement tonight, putting up an 18 point win against the Brooklyn Nets. Steph Curry went off for 37 points on 12/19 shooting and 9/14 from downtown. He made all 4 free throws he shot as well, in spite of getting to the line only a few times.
