Kevin Durant soaked every second of Stephen Curry getting roasted by a Chinese reporter who asked him about his foul trouble, after the Golden State Warriors point guard picked up five fouls in 24 minutes of play in a 111-97 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday.

The Finals MVP smiled, then looked intently at his running mate while he answered the question.

“Hopefully I can get rid of all the fouls in the preseason,” said Curry. “That's what the preseason is for, just trying to get back to that game speed and stop hacking.”

“What's the Chinese word for ‘hacking'?” Curry asked before moving onto the next question.

Curry has been prone to one too many reaching fouls early in the season, which eventually starts to go away after he regains his foot speed and is able to make up for it with niftier footwork.

Aside from his five fouls, Stephen Curry scored 14 points on an efficient 5-of-9 from the floor, along with 3-of-6 shooting from beyond the arc.

Kevin Durant led all scorers with 20 points, as four of the five starters reached double figures scoring before resting for the remainder of the game.
