NBA opening night: Stephen Curry posts 'trash' triple double; Russell Westbrook flops in Lakers debut

Also, LeBron James remains ridiculous, and Giannis Antetokounmpo's passing was top notch in Milwaukee's win over Brooklyn

The Golden State Warriors got their season started on a high note with a 121-114 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers in the nightcap of the NBA's season-opening doubleheader on Tuesday. In the first game, the Milwaukee Bucks looked every bit like the defending NBA champs with a 127-104 victory over the Brooklyn Nets. 

Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with 32 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists and two blocks. Kevin Durant posted 32 points and 11 boards for the Nets, but along with James Harden was a minus-20 for the game. 

For the Lakers, LeBron James (34) and Anthony Davis (33) combined for 77 points and looked absolutely dominant in doing so, but nobody else really showed up. Russell Westbrook was awful, which we'll get to. For the Warriors, Stephen Curry admittedly "played like trash," as he so eloquently put it during his on-court postgame interview, but he still managed to record his first triple-double since 2016 with 21 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds.
