It’s no coincidence that some of Steff Curry’s most explosive scoring nights came at a time when Dremond Green is on play-making frenzy.
In their ninth NBA season, Curry and Green recognize each other as the backs of their hands. Lilo knows where Curry prefers to take the ball. Curry knows that Green will find him if he keeps walking.
The game of some of his incredible two men has been drawn by Steve Care and the coach. And most of them are just natural.
“The fun is in what their novelty is,” Carey said. “Some of that stuff, it’s almost like sandalwood football. They just play with dirt on the court and they find a way to make someone wide-open. They’re both really, really bright basketballs.”
Curry and Green’s chemistry was in full swing on Monday night for the Wave Riders’ 129-98 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. It was a game full of moments that highlighted their two-man game, and how easy they made the game for each other. Curry finished the night with 36 points in 13-of-19 shooting, while Green had a season-high 16 assists and just one turnover. Didn’t even play in the fourth quarter.
Leela has said that she has a screen setting in things like help out. But when they both do, the Warriors ’offense opens up new heights.
Juan Tosco-Anderson did and asked Green to look along, “It’s a matter of beauty.” “It’s a beautiful basketball. I mean I’m smiling and smiling there because, how do you protect it? I don’t know if you’ll kill it, but reading their game is on another level and It is impossible to protect.
“I choose to be in their actions because I know that either Steff will be open, or I’ll be open, nine out of nine times. You can’t protect both of them. It’s just a matter of beauty and I’m appreciative of it. I just love this game, a superfunction of the game of basketball and it’s art for me. “
By watching Curry and Green’s court-to-court chemistry, other team members who haven’t played with them for a long time have begun to learn based on where Curry and Green go, where they should go to keep a distance on the floor.
They know that when Curry pulls multiple defenders, Lily will find them in the right place.

The chemistry of Curry and Green is more evident this season than ever before. In the past, the Warriors roster has always been full of other high-level talents like Kevin Durant and Clay Thompson. The on-court relationship of those players with Curry is always at the center stage. But this season, they’re all on Curry and Green, and their history of playing together shines and gives the Warriors something to do around them.
“It’s built on eight, nine years of experience that comes out whether we pull something or talk about something or we feel it or want it,” Curry said.
This season, Curry-Green will be the big key to the success of the two-man game Warriors. And while the Warriors still have a lot out there, it’s not because of what their star duo does.
