OAKLAND—Golden State’s mercurial guard had better get used to it at this rate.Curry rolled his surgically repaired ankle and limped off the court for the second time in seven days. This time the pain was a little easier to take.Curry had 21 points and 10 assists, and played stifling defense on Derrick Rose most of the night to lead the Warriors to a 99-91 victory over the Bulls on Monday.Monta Ellis added 26 points and seven assists, David Lee had 22 points and seven rebounds, and Dominic McGuire made three free throws in the final 47 seconds to seal the win.Rose had a poor shooting night and finished with 13 points. It was similar to a year ago when the Warriors, playing at home, held Rose to a quiet 14 points and 10 assists and beat the Bulls 101-90.Ellis drew the assignment against Rose in that game. This time it was almost exclusively Curry, who followed Rose closely throughout the night and prevented the league’s reigning MVP from getting settled in.A day after making a series of late-game breakdowns against Chris Paul and the Clippers in a 105-86 loss, the Warriors built a double-digit lead in the first quarter and held on.Rose went 4 of 17 from the floor and missed badly on a pair of 3-pointers in the final moments, including an airball with 25 seconds left.Luol Deng, whose block of Kobe Bryant as time expired sealed a season-opening 88-87 win over the Los Angeles Lakers, had 22 points and 10 rebounds for the Bulls. They trailed by as much as 19 before making a late surge to get within 96-91 with 36 seconds remaining. The Bulls, who is in the midst of a season-opening, four-game road trip, has lost nine of its last 10 games in Oakland. Ellis, held to 15 in the season-opening loss to the Clippers, got the Warriors going with 13 points in the first quarter but it was Curry who provided the biggest lift.He scored 12 straight points and drove past three Bulls defenders in the key to cap a 16-5 run and give Golden State a 46-27 lead. Curry also shadowed Rose and helped hold him to seven points in the first half.Rose, who hit the game-winner in the Bulls 88-87 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday, took only three shots in the first quarter when the Bulls committed eight turnovers.The Warriors increased their lead to 17 after three before the Bulls made their late push to get within 93-85 with 1:44 left.Kyle Korver made a pair of 3-pointers in a 14-second span to pull hit team within 96-91 but the Bulls couldn’t get closer.

NOTES—The Bulls 14 first-half turnovers equaled its total from the previous night…..It was the first time in 10 years the Warriors have opened the season with games on consecutive nights. Golden State also plays its next two at Oracle Arena…..The sellout crowd included New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia, who grew up 30 miles north of Oakland, Raiders owner Mark Davis and San Francisco 49ers running back Anthony Dixon.
