The 2015-2016 regular NBA season hasn't even begun, yet the reigning champions just won't stop. During the Golden State Warriors' preseason game against the Lakers on Thursday, Stephen Curry threw a mid-court underhanded alley-oop pass to Andre Iguodala.
Earlier this month, Steph Curry was seen high-fiving Warriors teammate Andre Iguodala after launching a three-pointer that hadn't even gone in yet. Iguodala was on the Warriors bench during the play, which made it that much better.
Now we see the duo connecting on yet another dope play. During the third quarter of the Warriors' preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night, Curry decided to switch up his normal alley-oop pass to Andre from half-court, as he slung an underhanded alley-oop pass to Iggy, who then threw down a two-handed slam dunk. Curry made the beautiful play look so effortlessly easy. After the play, Iggy raise the roof as the two high-fived:

This play was merely a part of the 40-point third quarter for the Warriors as they beat the Lakers 136-97 and was one of Curry's 10 assists in 29 minutes, The Big Lead reported.
Clearly Curry really is MVP material, despite what others may think (like James Harden for example). Curry's got it all: beyond excellent shooting range, brilliant basketball mentality, superb statistics and beautiful creativity.
CBS Sports and ESPN both reported that Curry totaled 24 points on 9-for-14 shooting, 10 assists, 4 rebounds and 4 steals, while Iguodala totaled 8 points, 2 assists, 3 rebounds and 1 steal.
There's no doubt at all that the reigning champs are beyond ready (despite facing an embarrassing loss against the Los Angeles Clippers early last week) for the start of regular season as they clearly make another run for the NBA Championship.
