Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr believes continuity is the reason for Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant's electric start to the 2018/19 season.

Curry scored 35 points as well as seven rebounds and three assists, while Durant posted 34 points, eight rebounds and six assists as the Warriors improved to 6-1 for the season with a 120-114 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.

It means going into Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls, the duo, considered the best shooters in the league today, are averaging over 30 points per game this season, having shot a combined 77-for-132 over the last three games.

It's also clear that after such a red-hot start, Curry and Durant are playing better together than ever before since the latter moved to the Bay Area in 2016 and Kerr believes there's a "comfort area" between the two.

"I think this is year three for them together and the continuity of being together now for a while, winning back-to-back titles together, I think there's probably a better comfort zone, comfort area between the two of them than there's ever been," Kerr told reporters after the game.

Curry meanwhile, cited confidence and work put in during practice as the main factors behind their recent success. He notably broke George McCloud's record of six games in 1995/96 after scoring his fifth three-pointer for the seventh game in a row.

"We're confident," Curry explained, as per ESPN. "We understand the game calls for certain efforts in terms of being a little bit more aggressive to shoot and to score based on different lineups we have out there and things like that."

"We put a lot of work in and have a lot of confidence when we're out there on the floor. Try to create the best shots you can, force the issue a little bit if you need to," he said.

Going 6-1 is also a considerably better start to the season than last year when they started off 4-3 following their second championship in three years.

Having also ended last season in lackluster fashion, the Warriors are looking to not have a repeat of things, which is contributing to their successful start to the new campaign.

"Because we went through what we went through last year," Curry added. "And it's kind of fresh in your memory in terms of how terrible a feeling it was night in, night out. Nothing clicking, not having any energy or juice. Just making things harder than they should be, so we've talked about it, we've been open about it as a team, kind of set mini-goals to start off the season better."

"Obviously, we're not going to blow people out every night; it's going be to be tough. This is the NBA, there's talent everywhere, but I think looking at the eye test and how we feel walking up the court, we're playing with a lot more focus and more discipline better than we did last year starting off the year. That's a good kind of vibe to have as you go through the 82 [regular-season games]," he said.
