Despite the fact that he is accustomed to this, he has raised the bar with his play. He has started the current season just as dominant as he did during that playoff run after winning his first MVP title in the Finals.<\/p>\n<p>Curry scored 40 PTS on 65% field goal shooting and 55% from long range on Saturday, putting the Cleveland Cavaliers away with a number of clutch shots. He received tremendous accolades from Brooklyn Nets player Kevin Durant for his fantastic performance, which was absolutely incredible. \u201cMy goodness Stephen,\u201d tweeted the Nets star.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">My goodness Stephen.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kevin Durant (@KDTrey5) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KDTrey5\/status\/1591300792497344512?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 12, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Durant is aware of his potential because he witnessed Curry\u2019s greatness firsthand while the two were teammates.

Things have not been as successful for him since Durant left to join Kyrie Irving and the Nets.
