By now, you should know better than to take anything significant from an NBA preseason game and treat it as gospel. However, that still should not stop someone from appreciating something special whenever it happens. Case in point: Stephen Curry’s 40-point performance against the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he went 14-of-19 from the field, 6-of-9 from three-point range (nice), and put up an incredible true-shooting percentage of .924.
Preseason does not matter, but on the other hand, you also shouldn’t hesitate to point out things that were just plain horrendous. In the Golden State Warriors’ 104-98 loss against the Los Angeles Lakers (playing without LeBron James and Anthony Davis), nothing could be described as pretty.
