If you couldn’t tell by their chemistry on the floor, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant have become close friends.

On Tuesday, Curry was asked if he and Durant, a former conference rival on the Oklahoma City Thunder, are friends after Durant’s move to the Bay Area.

Curry immediately responded to the question joking, “I can’t stand that guy, man, for real.”

Curry said the former NBA MVPs have known each other since 2009.

"From October to now, I feel like I definitely know him better than I did,” Curry said. “That'll hopefully continue as we go forward in our careers, but he's a great dude. He has a great sense of humor. I feel like I'm on a dating show right now. He's a great dude, great dude. I really like being around him and hopefully that continues."
