The Warriors get a 1-2 Memphis team on the tail end of a back to back (they played the Lakers last night), and with a long road trip coming up they need to get this one any way they can. Curry, as expected, is out. What to look for:

  • Return of Lee. Anything would be better than what he put in against the Lakers, but Memphis’ front line has pretty good size (though Zach Randolph is out). I’d like to see him silence any doubters and go right back to putting up double-doubles every night.
  • Replacing Curry. Lin had 15 solid minutes at the Lakers, but can he really be relied on? I much prefer Monta off the ball, and thought Williams did well in that final preseason game. Will be interesting to see what happens here.
  • Rebounding. The Lakers game was the first where the Warriors were out-rebounded, and also the first they lost. Will this relationship continue?

    I guess we posted previews at the EXACT same time. You win on quality though.

  • Jake

    Oh damn actually yours showed up in the roll before mine. I lose on all accounts.

    Haha, sweet. We’re just both pumped for MEMPHIS

  • Christian

    Two good plays in a row by VladRad. He needs to be consistent in these contributions

    Huge 3 by D Wright at the half-time buzzer to extend the lead to double-digits

      That run to close the half was impressive. Just when it looked like memphis was going to make a run (and would have last year), the reeled off 7 straight.

    D. Wright has been really impressive tonight. Best he has looked thus far.

  • Jake

    Also, Carney should not be a starter, but I am liking his game especially when he drives to the hole rather than hucking up threes a la his reputation.

  • Christian

    Wow, what a silly offensive foul call on Monta’s spin shot attempt.

  • Jake

    Whew …

  • Christian

    Yay!

    Very nice win. Monta’s starting to seem like a winner for once!
