VIDEO: Curry and Bogut execute flawless Warriors alley-oop

Steve Kerr has really opened up the Golden State Warriors' playbook, and the results thus far have been both impressive and mesmerizing to watch for basketball fans.

After boasting an underwhelming offense under Mark Jackson, despite a wealth of offensive talent, Kerr now has the Warriors scoring at a top-seven rate (107.1 points per 100 possesions) to go with their second-ranked defense.

Plays like this against the Utah Jazz on Friday help explain why.

There's just so much to love about this play. Klay Thompson sets a down-screen for fellow guard Stephen Curry, a dribble hand-off between Andrew Bogut and Curry includes a behind-the-back pass from a center, and then Curry sets up Bogut for the flawless alley-oop.

With Thompson, a deadly shooter, standing behind the three-point line to ensure the Jazz can't help off him, this play is about as close to unguardable as it gets.
