The world champion Golden State Warriors avenged their loss last year in South Beach with a 123-95 punishing of the Miami Heat. Stephen Curry led the way with 30 points in 30 minutes on 11-for-16 shooting (5-for-9 from three-point range), ignoring the plethora of bandages on his injured hand and shoulders.
Curry came out on South Beach cooking with plutonium. Goran Dragic is a fantastic player, but he cannot guard the Dubs point guard.
Stephen Curry has his highest scoring first quarter of the season with 16 points on 5-of-7 from the field (3-of-4 3FG)

Unfortunately, the Warriors defense wasn’t following suit with the two-time MVP’s hot start, giving up 36 points to start the game.
