Andrew Bogut gets to make his “real” home debut tonight against a somewhat broken Mavericks team. Curry is a game-time decision, and it might be a good one to hold him out of for precautionary reasons. Even without him, this is a game they should win.

Final game of the roadie — would be a great one to snag so they could go home with a .500 trip. Sounds like Irving might be out, but I’d have to imagine Curry is unlikely to play and we know that Bogut is out. Will be a big game for the benches!

After last night’s blowout, would be great to see a nice rebound tonight. Let’s hope they bring more energy, but you know that Monta’s gonna be ready to “send a message” to his former team.

Big test tonight as we hit the half-way point on the season, with the best team in the conference coming to Oakland. OKC is an interesting challenge as they don’t have the large inside presence that has given the Warriors trouble this year, so in theory the dubs should be able to hang with them. But then again the talent disparity is pretty wide, so the chances of a Miami-style blowout are arguably more likely than a close game. Let’s hope Lee and Curry’s ankles are doing better, because they’re going to need them tonight.

Matinee today, in a game that would be great to get as the blowout at the hands of the Clippers really kicked off this rough stretch for the Warriors. Health will be important — not sure if they can get it done without a healthy Curry and Lee, much less without them.

Can’t say I’m optimistic about this one, especially since I’m hoping they hold Curry out again (PLEASE don’t rush him back this year). The Warriors are going to need to be fully healthy and running on all cylinders to finally end their epic losing streak in San Antonio, and neither one is the case going into tonight.

A bit of luster off of this one with the news that Curry is likely out with another ankle sprain. I hope they just keep him out and take their lumps — this has sure L written all over it given the previous victory over Miami and the fact that the Heat got killed in Utah on Monday. If the Warriors win tonight (especially if they do it without Curry), then my opinion of the Heat as a title contender is going to be seriously diminished…
