Do the Warriors' Steph Curry and Klay Thompson comprise the best NBA backcourt ever? Miami Heat president Pat Riley has always maintained that the duo of Jerry West and Gail Goodrich was the best backcourt he ever saw. In the wake of the Warriors getting off to a 15-0 start to the season on the strength of the backcourt play of Curry and Thompson, Riley, who played alongside West and Goodrich in 1971-72 when the Lakers won 33 games in succession, is making the comparison. ``They are the two most dynamic players in the backcourt, that I have ever seen, since Jerry West and Gail Goodrich,'' Riley told the Associated Press Sunday night.
