This doesn’t seem like it should be possible but there it was: The second night of a road back-to-back at age 35 and Stephen Curry is putting on a show in the Big Easy.
Curry scored 16 of the Warriors’ first 18 points against New Orleans Monday night.

Curry went on to score 42 and lead the Warriors to a comfortable win on the road, 130-102. Curry — who hadn’t suited up in New Orleans the previous two seasons — gave the fans a show.

The Warriors are off to a hot start this season because of Curry, but also because Chris Paul is lifting up the bench units — on the young season the Warriors have the same offensive rating whether Curry is on the court or off.
