Golden State Warriors MVP point guard Stephen Curry fed an insane dish to Kevin Durant for the open three.

The Golden State Warriors are finally cooking against the Oklahoma City Thunder. After a slow first quarter on Thursday night, the Warriors absolutely came unleashed in the second quarter. Kevin Durant would lead the way for the Warriors with 29 points in the first half and Stephen Curry was hitting with some of those big shots.

On one play in particular, it was all Curry setting up his newest superstar teammate. As Curry went right down the court, he saw Durant wide open and hit him with the behind-the-back pass for the open three on the play.

After that shot went down, the Oracle Arena lost their minds as they began to blowout the Thunder. The emotional battle that everyone was waiting for was turning into a one-sided affair and Durant clearly was ready to dish out pain to his old team.

There was even a moment later on during the game when both Durant and Westbrook would block each other. However, it was Durant that got the biggest block and brought the crowd to their feet in epic fashion. The first battle has belonged to Durant thus far.
