The Golden State Warriors host the New York Knicks tonight, coming off a two-game winning streak. They beat the Lakers first and then the Spurs, and the common theme in both of these games was the excellence of two-time MVP Stephen Curry.
Tonight, he started the game with some saucy playmaking. He started the play by passing it to Draymond Green, who found him once again with an excellent find.
As he attracted three defenders, he made a quick and slick behind the back pass to Draymond. The former DPOY was wide open, and he buried the three with ease.

Stephen Curry: Best playmaking shooter in the league?
Most of the sharpshooters in the league focus majorly on their outside shooting and sometimes on defense. But Curry is one of the very few players who have mastered the art of both shooting and playmaking.
Curry has already established himself as the best shooter in NBA history. He is a game away from climbing to 2nd all-time on the three-pointers made leaderboard.

He also holds the record for most threes in a season with 402 in the 2015-16 season. His playstyle has also changed the league’s playstyle, and now threes are the way to go.
He also averages 6.3 assists this season and has been creating most of the chances for the Warriors this season. Draymond has also helped out in this department, and together, they are running the Warriors’ offense.

By the end of half-time, the Warriors were trailing by six points. Except for Curry and Andrew Wiggins, the Warriors were struggling to make their shots. The Knicks were not allowing the Warriors to play their usual game, and this allowed them to stay in the hunt for the win.
In the second half, Curry and the Dubs need to pull their socks up and improve. Draymond had a soft ejection, so that piles on the pressure, as the Warriors aim to win their third game in a row.
