Game Thread #42: Warriors at the Suns -- Steph v. Steve

10 for the move, 3.5 for the hair.
Turiaf in, Monta out. Standard. The Warriors are +12 road dogs without their leader, and understandably so. It is hard to imagine they'll be able to keep up with Phoenix's pace without Monta, and down to one guard. One guard. Roll that around on your tongue for a bit. But the Warriors have astounded the bookies, not to mention this fan, with their effort so far this season. They are now 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games.
The upside to Monta going down is that we'll get a look at how Stephen Curry can run a team. (Even if it's a D-league team.) If last night is any indication, the answer is pretty darn well. The Warriors outscored the Nets by 24 after Monta went down. Curry was dominant, with a career high 32 points, and 7 assists against 2 TO's. And for those of you who continue to insist that he's not a point guard, I believe I heard Jim Barnett say last night that Curry "is as good in the open floor as anyone in the NBA." 50-40-90. Do those numbers mean anything to you? Those are the shooting percentages Steve Nash has surpassed from the field, from three, and from the line, in four of the last 5 years. In the year he missed, it was because he allowed his free throw percentage to dip to 88.9. For shame! Needless to say, these are incredibly elite numbers, that place Nash among the most efficient NBA scorers in NBA history. Why do I bring it up? Because these are Stephen Curry's shooting percentages in January: 49-44-87. While playing ridiculous minutes, and great defense, for a depleted team, in his rookie season. Something to think about. Here's something else to think about: Tyreke Evans is about to slip badly in the rookie of the year race. Why? Because Kevin Martin has returned to the Kings lineup. Evans now finds himself in the same situation Curry has been in since the start of the year. He is no longer the only Kings star on the court, and the focus of its offense. He now has to share the backcourt with an established star, and a player that needs the ball in his hands to be effective. There could be quite an adjustment period ahead for the Kings, and Mr. Evans. Take a look at last night's box score to see what I mean. I guess what I'm saying is that no matter what fresh hell the Warriors encounter this 13-28 season, there continues to something fascinating to watch about them. No Monta Ellis? Ok, I'll watch Stephen Curry take another step towards greatness. I'll watch Corey Maggette continue to confound his critics. I'll watch the D-league all-stars lay it all on the line for a place in the league. And of course, I'll watch Don Nelson, confronted by disaster, delivering one of the most remarkable coaching performances of his career.
Predictions:
- Steph over Steve.
- A new record in assists for the rook: 13.
- Maggette will get up off the floor, look at his knee and wince.
- Someone very small will guard Channing Frye.
- The Warriors will outrebound the Suns. You heard me.
- A D-leaguer will outscore J-Rich.

Steve Nash will eat Stephen Curry alive this game
With only 5 fouls to give and no other guards or ball handlers, Curry cannot risk getting fouls. That means he cannot guard Nash, or touch him, or breathe on him. Curry also cannot offer help defense or risk a reach in foul, and he cannot drive to the basket or risk a flopped/charge foul.
If Curry gets his 5th foul and there’s still lots of time left, Nellie will have to send Hunter, Cartier, and Tolliver and play Hack a Sun and foul out those 3 guys. That way, if Curry draws a 6th, he’s still in the game along side the vets George, Maggette, Turiaf, and Biedrins.
This will be an exciting game only because the Warriors will be in a situation that is rarely seen, and it will be REALLY interesting to see how Nellie strategizes for this game.

Curry might have to defend Nash now. Richardson is back starting and Nellie doesn’t want JR posting up Curry
Cleveland is overrated...

Fitz
Keeps talking about how Maggs makes shots when he doesn’t dribble first.
I think it’s because he can line up his fingers on the laces of the ball and get the proper rotation. He shoots straight on when this happens, and he makes it frequently. But when he dribbles his fingers are randomly aligned with the laces, which makes the ball much tougher to shoot.
amare is being stuffed tonight
great team defense on him
AMAZING 1st quarter
if we can keep this up, Monta can get some more rest for that ankle against sac town
Living for a magical 8th seed run
problem with biedrins is
that he had bad luck on 2 of 3 his first shots and it can spoil his confidence (see shot #4 and turnover) though his rebounding is great – 6 per Q
WTF FTW!
I dont think he is used to having so many plays called for him
So let me get this straight... Maggette is the healthy guy.

hah, bob says jrich had to motivate his teammates, saying Warriors only have 8 guys
the Suns should get into this
I bet JRich wishes he was still on the Dubs
probably thinking that the Suns aren’t very good since they are losing to Curry, Maggs, Biedrins, and a bunch of d-leaguers.
you have to give credit to Nellie and the coaching staff
despite losing Monta, we are still running plays that gets guys open, and credit these guys for executing the plays and hitting their shots
Age will do that to you
So let me get this straight... Maggette is the healthy guy.

okay....
For the first time in a while I will say that it looked like we are playing too fast. That stretch was ugly
yeah I kow he wants to be back, but he plays great against them
I think the Warriros will sign him when he’s a free agent
it looks like monta isnt helping as much as we thought...

after watching tolliver out there
It just goes to show that Anthony Randolph has a lot to learn and a LOOOONG way to go, especially in the brain department, before he can become an effective player. I know Randolph can fill up a stat sheet, but all the mental stuff in between the stats, his approach and understanding to the game, he’s very very far off right now.
still.
AR won’t gain what you want him to by sitting.
Warriors, Stupidest franchise in the league.
I told Randolph that Bill Russell would tell him to keep that ball in play and start the break.
RANDOLPH: "I know. But sometimes, you gotta let ‘em know."
(MT)
that's what practice is for
he has to demonstrate that he has an understanding of basketball concepts even in practice, where there’s no pressure, the pace is slower, and he can understand the basics. Once he does so, he can get in a real game and get all the extra subtleties in a real game that aren’t there in practice.

i think we have seen the plusses and minus's of no monta
it opens up for more shots for everyone else, and better ball movement… but we struggle for points in the halfcourt too..

Just checked the play by play for last night's game
He had two assists before Monta went out, and neither were to Monta. He had 7 overall.
by Reverend_Randy on Jan 23, 2010 7:54 PM PST up reply actions
i wonder if the problem with curry right now
is that he’s prone to telegraphing plays sometimes. Any thoughts?
Yup, been a problem since the season started

i think some fatigue, both mental and physical, is setting in

Brandon Jennings is looking the “truest” PG of the bunch right now: 13 dimes and 1 TO tonight.
Meantime, Tyreke Evans has totally stopped rebounding. That was one of his biggest advantages over the pack, I thought; now he’s only slightly ahead of Curry in this regard.
Curry looking pretty crappy tonight. Maybe this’ll stop Feltbot from shamelessly astroturfing for a day or two?
Hm, seems like no one wants the ROY right now…

Evans
He really needs Kevin Martin to leave town.

Warriors, Stupidest franchise in the league.
I told Randolph that Bill Russell would tell him to keep that ball in play and start the break.
RANDOLPH: "I know. But sometimes, you gotta let ‘em know."
(MT)
That loooouuuu thing is pretty lame
whenever he has the ball he is loued. the guy was on one of the warriors summer league teams a couple years ago
That's still a dangerous play.
Their feet could’ve gotten tangled and it be really dangerous.

I think it's a good move
The players want him there, and they get Hue Jackson who could be a solid offensive coordinator. Either way Davis is going to give Russell another shot, and once Russell gets beat out in the preseaon, they can roll on with Gradkowski or someone else.
If my calculations are correct
Tolliver is on day #6 of his 10 day. Do we give him another one afterwards? Do I even need to ask?
looking ahead
i see the kings are on a 7 game losing streak. Weren’t the Kings fans in here making fun of us the last time we played them?
Right
Look up at the standings now. We’re one game back in the loss column despite all of the injuries. We’re the better team.
