"Hope everyone has their 'Is this the end for Stephen Curry?' segments ready!": NBA Twitter brings up the Warriors' superstar's individual records against the Lakers ahead of Opening Night

Warriors’ superstar Stephen Curry is yet again being underestimated, ahead of the Opening Night matchup against the Lakers

The Golden State Warriors are headed to Los Angeles, as they prepare to take on the Lakers on opening night. The Warriors had one final practice in their facility before heading to LA. The last two people to get out were the Splash Brothers. Both Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson were working on their 3s, before they were absolutely needed to leave.

As it happens before the start of each season, once again, there are people rising up and underestimating the Chef. Despite coming off what was his best individual season, and the strong preseason showing, Stephen Curry is being sold short yet again.

Stephen Curry and his records on Opening Night, and against the Lakers

Stephen Curry is coming off a season where he won the scoring title, averaging 32 points per game. He finished the preseason with a 41 point performance in 3 quarters. However, the critics would never go away.

With the season starting tomorrow, people have dug out old stats to show how Curry is destined to fail on Opening night.

These stats didn’t go well with Steph’s fans, as expected.

Despite these numbers, Steph has scored 37 and 30 points the last two times these teams faced each other. It would be worth watching how the Chef feels tomorrow, and how he cooks the 2020 NBA Champions.

Warriors vs Lakers takes place at 7 PM PT.
