Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors have now won two games in a row after starting the 2020-21 season 0-2. The Dubs are starting to play as a unit and gaining confidence with each game.

Curry, however, knows that the mentality the team will need in order to be successful this campaign will be much different than that of previous years when the Warriors were on the top season after season.

Per Montel Poole of NBC Sports, Curry talked more about the mindset the team has to embrace now that they are no longer the team to beat out West.

“Obviously, you want to win,” the Warriors star said. “But in years past, when you know you're at the top of the Western Conference, and you have these ‘mini-goals’ to keep your focus and have like a relative attainable goal in the short term, that definitely helps.

“With this team, it’s totally different.”

Stephen Curry no longer has players such as Kevin Durant, Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston, and a healthy Klay Thompson to run the offense that players were so afraid of facing in the past.

The Warriors have only gotten a taste of the Eastern Conference, as their first Western Conference matchup will take place on Firday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. However, the talent that the West has does not intimidate Curry and the Dubs.

“We've played only East Coast teams so far, so it's kind of hard for us to even gauge where we're at up and down the Western Conference,” Curry said. “But we have a lot of confidence in where we're trying to go, and what team we can be week from now, a month from now.”
