"You talk about making someone look completely silly and foolish."

When asked about the Dillon Brooks moment after the game, Curry said:

“We know what he’s about and his reputation, I don’t get caught up in that. I just play basketball. So, you obviously let the game do the talking. … There’s a lot of history with him particularly. At the end of the day, you just hoop.”

Steph led the way for the Warriors with 24 points, seven rebounds and six assists, while Jalen Green was the highest-scoring player for the Rockets with 21 points, and nine rebounds.

Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets' start to the NBA season so far

Steph Curry and Co. have started the new season in great fashion. After acquiring Chris Paul in the offseason, there were many doubts on how the Warriors starting 5 would line up. But the Warriors seemed to have put those doubts away already with a strong start to the season.

Curry did not take time to get started in the new season. The former league MVP already looks set to put up some great numbers this season. In the first three games, Golden State has 2 wins. Its only loss came against the Phoenix Suns on the opening night.
