Steph Curry scored 37 points to lead the defending-champion Golden State Warriors to a 115-110 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday at Golden State. The Warriors, now 12-0, will play the Clippers on Thursday at Staples Center, to try and extend that unbeaten streak at the outset of the season.

The NBA record for consecutive victories to start a season is 15, so if the Warriors win four more without losing, they will have set a record. Curry says the team is not concerning itself with that.

We don’t talk about it that much, we’re just happy to get a win,” Curry said post-game. “We feel pretty loose out there, so even in close games we feel and get the sense that everyone is composed and loose. Definitely confident we pulled that out. We have to go out and execute, you can’t just think that you’ve got to do something about it. There’s no pressure on us, no cloud hanging over the locker room, no 16-0 number, just staying in the moment.”
