The NBA season is back, baby! Stephen Curry is raring to go as his Golden State Warriors take on LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers on opening night.

As he sat in the locker room just minutes away from the highly-anticipated clash, Steph star let out a simple 2-word tweet that should get Warriors fans hyped.

Both the Lakers and Warriors come into this season with heavy chips on their shoulders. Stephen Curry and Co. have missed the playoff party two seasons in a row, after years of being the headliner of the whole event.

Look for Curry to have yet another MVP-worthy season while familiar faces in Klay Thompson and Andre Iguodala work their way back into playing shape. The Warriors are out to remind everyone that they're still very much alive in the title conversation.

LeBron James and the Lakers meanwhile want to prove that their premature playoff ouster last season was nothing but a one-off occurrence. With Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony now in tow, and returning members of their championship core in Rajon Rondo and Dwight Howard back on the roster, LA is on a mission to raise yet another banner up at Staples Center.

The aspirations of two iconic franchises collide on opening night. There's no better way to start the season than that
