The Warriors finish their home-heavy stretch with a Friday night matchup against a reeling Hawks team, losers of 5 of 6. After the Boston massacre, A win would provide a huge boost before the Warriors head back out on the road for an extended stretch. What to watch for:

  • Be sharp. Atlanta just made a big trade, with Kirk Hinrich the big get. They should be a little off with a new point guard working his way onto the team, and smart, tight D could lead to a nice turnover advantage.
  • Get Monta Going. Given how well the Hawks played inside the last game, I think the Warriors need a big game from their best player in order to keep Atlanta’s woes from dissipating.
  • Make Your Money. If David Lee wants to show he was worth the big contract, this would be a great game for him to show up. Al Horford and Josh Smith ain’t slouches, so he’ll definitely have his work cut out for him.

    The Warriors re-signed Adrien, so we’ll see if he makes the game tonight. In the meantime, check out his d-league stats: 19 points and 12 rebounds per, with a 55% shooting percentage

      Happy about the signing for sure, but will not suit up tonight.
