It hasn't been an easy first month for Curry and the Warriors, with trade demands being made, injuries all around, and plenty of negative press flowing around the team. Fortunately, Curry's been able to keep it somewhat in perspective thanks to a veteran who also played a little ball in North Carolina.

"Corey Maggette," Curry says of how he's survived the early drama. "He's really helped me keep my head straight through all of the turmoil the team's gone through and through our ups and downs. He helps make sure I come in every day and focus and have tunnel vision with all of that going on and make sure I just focus on getting better. He's really helped me get through this first month. ... It's hard when all you hear when people talk about your team is negatives. It's tough to keep your mind clear. You have to tell yourself that you know what's really going on because you're inside the ropes of the team and you know what to expect every day and how to handle it. I think if you remind yourself of that every day you can get through it."
