VIDEOS: Steph Curry immediately buries T-Wolves with early flurry

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors aren't messing around.
Curry helped the Warriors race out to an early 13-2 lead in the first 132 seconds on Thursday by draining two threes, hitting three free throws, and snagging two steals to immediately knock out the Minnesota Timberwolves.
For Curry's first three of the game, he coasted to within 28 feet of the basket before nailing a pullup right in Zach LaVine's eye.
His second trey capitalized on the Timberwolves' defensive negligence. LaVine got caught on a screen, and the 39-year-old Kevin Garnett was too slow to react. The end result was inevitable.
