Golden State Warriors at Atlanta Hawks, Mar 5, 2010 4:30 PM PST

They got a good thing going in HOTlanta. Much respect.
Sorry, Mrs. Jackson. The Hawks are for real.
Warriors (41-18) vs Hawks (21-39)
Tip Off: 4:30pm PST
TV: CSN Bay Area | Radio: KNBR
Forget what happened in the Orlando. (See RECAP: Golden State Warriors 90, Orlando Magic 117 - Dwight Howard double-double + a poor shooting night by Stephen Curry = Easy win for the Magic if you feel like reminiscing for some odd reason.)
Forget what happened in Miami. (See RECAP: Golden State Warriors 106, Miami Heat 110 - The Warriors aka "D League All Stars" Almost Pull the Win if you feel like reminiscing for some odd reason.)
Why?
Well JUMP to find out!
We all know what happened last time the Dubs and Hawks squared off. We welcomed Atlanta to the Bay and showed them Dirty South folk how we hyphy folk do it here in the Yay Area.
In case you forgot...
RECAP: Golden State Warriors 108, Atlanta Hawks 104- Welcome to the Bay
Now do I expect that to happen again this afternoon?
NOPE.
Simply put, the Warriors are not fielding a NBA level squad right now. Don't get me wrong I really do appreciate everything the Golden State D-Leaguers have brought to the table. Their passion and hunger to earn playing time and make the most of it (something that was completely missing with the Warriors "future fours" Anthony Randolph and Brandan Wright who oddly felt entitled to playing time) is unmatched and refreshing to see. It's funny, but both D-League big men Hunter and Tolliver have a few areas, post moves and jumper respectively, that are just superior to the Warriors overrated and overhyped center tandem of Andris Biedrins and Ronny Turiaf. I guess these guys developed in the D-League, while the Warriors big men just got complacent- more so Biedrins than Turiaf.
From the recent call-ups Chris Hunter, Anthony Tolliver, Reggie Williams, to the more recent D-League or undrafted mainstays on this roster a la C.J. Watson and Anthony Morrow you really can't knock the hustle. These guys are trying and giving their all- well aside from Watson on defense (he's proof that steals don't paint the whole picture of defensive tenacity). Throw in Stephen Curry keeping his slim hopes alive for the ROY honors and there's still some fun GSW hoops to see if you can look beyond the fact that this is just not an NBA level roster right now. Just don't expect a winning record anytime soon even with a hall of fame coach in waiting Don Nelson on the sidelines.
Other than that, there's really not much to analyze here.
The Hawks are very good.
The Warriors are very bad.
Anything can happen, but will it?
We shall see.
But until game time here's some much deserved screen time for The Human Highlight Film:
Just NASTY!

My Predictions
The Atlanta Hawks defeat the Golden State D-Leaguers: 108-96
-Stephen Curry has a comeback game 25-8-5
-Reggie Williams goes 10-5-5
-Jamal Crawford drops at least 25 tonight to make up for the last time we met.
-Joe Johnson shoots at least 6 free-throws.
-Josh Smith gets 4+ Blocks.
Jeez...
…Biedrins isn’t even playing, can we lay the off? Also, I don’t know that you could argue Rony is overhyped. I haven’t heard anybody suggest he’s more than a backup C.
New coach needed, as well as new management, players, etc.
Peachtree Street is the main drag through town
At least it was a few decades ago the last time I was in ATL.
Chris Hunter
I hope he gets noticed around the league and gets a permanent contract somewhere if not here.
I really like his calm attitude.
Lights please, lights please, turn off the lights.

Freaky Friday.
As a long time gambler, I will tell you that crazy stuff happens in the NBA on Fridays. I would not be surprised if the Warriors kept it close, but I will be surprised if they win. Also I heard rumors of Maggs playing today, anyone hear about this?
acc. to Nelson on the thurs. radio show
M’gette is expected to be available in Atl. The coach admitted the player’s heavy minutes probably contributed to the break-down, and thought at the season’s start that around 25 min./gm would be ideal.
Maggette is playing tonight?!?!
There goes another loss.!
Hahaha
I guess these guys developed in the D-League, while the Warriors big men just got complacent- more so Biedrins than Turiaf.
Hahahahahaha.
Great for the laughs.

Maggette is in Atlanta, in uniform
so he could come in off the bench

"There he goes. One of god's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
Oh no... Maggette's playing.
Time to lose!
jk. LGW!
But after seeing ball movement without maggette and monta, it’s hard to see those 1 on 5s.
Whoa, not a good way to start the game
hawks alley oop
hawks starting out well
warriors starting out ok, except for that hawks steal
Morrow
He’s taking it to the rim early.

tolliver with a 3!
A morrow-like transition 3
i think the hawks are paying super attention to curry
forcing someone else to step up. I’ve noticed CJ running the offense more here early on
i really wish i'd gone to Mohawk night.
that musta been off the chain
whoa, a T on CJ
i can’t remember CJ ever getting a T

I wish BD's groin wasn't such a fragile piece of crap.
We need his size in there.
haha
I was wondering how Baron Davis fit into this conversation
I miss him too though.
But I think everyone misses BD. I don’t miss him in his current condition though.
Stephen Curry fills the role of the point guard, passer, and play maker
but I miss Baron’s size for a point guard
I think Baron's lost some of his athleticism too.
Like he doesn’t care about his conditioning as much any more. My LA friend/clipper fan sayslast year BD could barely dunk.

I think Tolliver's just not really a good inside guy
Though on that last play, I do understand that he wasn’t expecting the ball, and the qtr clock rushed him

fast paced game
Warriors putting up a good fight, got a lead against hawks bench, lost it when their starters came back
Quick Recap
Atlanta was up by eight points, but our biggest lead is nine. The Hawks have made a nice push of their own and have retaken the lead.
Curry and Maggette are playing well. Watson is getting to the line a lot.

With Morrow and Curry returning to charlotte.
Hey guys remember
We won game against Atlanta when Nellie went big with Hunter and Biedrins. Beans particularly using his size shut down Josh Smith in the 4th qtr. I wonder if we will be able to adjust. So far neither Turiaf or Tolliver cant defend Smith.

well, he is right about the 3rd qtr blues. I didn’t even think about it until he brought it up. This is a great game.so far.
He is a downer
I don’t even know why he still does Warriors columns becuase all he does is rip on them. What’s the point besides getting paid?
Well, he probably cares about the team
Like most of the fans, he’s fed up with what has gone on with the team in the last 15 years.

i mean how is bibby 4 for 4 from 3, is anyone even guarding that dude?
I know but sometimes curry just looks lost
Like he doesn’t know where his man is.
I think part of the problem is that the guards have to help down low
leaving Bibby more chances to be open

I hope this game is close to the end
I wan see Curry try for a buzzer beater three
You know, I really hope Monta finds a way to fit into the team's flow when he comes back
I don’t want to see him dominating the game flow. Perhaps with Curry’s improved play, Monta or Nellie won’t rely on Monta plays so much.
Monta
can’t even fit with the game flow anymore. He’s become a selfish ballhog ever since Baron left. His turnovers are becoming like Traitor Jack’s before he left. Plus all these injuries just stopped his explosiveness.
We Believe > We Suck & Long Live '07-'08
hmmm
explosiveness? still there. selfsish ballhog? career high in assists as a guy who should off the ball asked to initiate the offense. check. fail
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
His second lowest assist rate (after last season)
meaning that he passes the ball less than he did when he played off the ball.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:31 PM PST up reply actions
remember assists only count if they're made
we need an “assist attempted” stat
All players deal with that
so no we don’t
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:33 PM PST up reply actions
but you can't tell if a player passed and set up a missed shot
that doesn’t show up in the box score. So how can you judge if someone’s passing or not?
you cant unless you get an assist attempted stance
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
I guess you don't
but it’s not very important to track a player’s bad passes, which are what a lot of Monta’s attempted assists could be called.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:37 PM PST up reply actions
how do you track a bad pass?
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
It shows up in the game log
and in the box score as a missed shot for a team mate or a TO
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:39 PM PST up reply actions
you just said missed shots happen all the time
so your saying every missed shot or shgot taken is off of monta’s creation?
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
I dunno
I know Monta has had some bad passes, but I’ve also seen him do some great setups and his teammates simply miss.
Are you implying that if a teammate misses a shot
it’s the passer’s fault? Off the top of my head, I remember a couple that was kicked out to Tolliver, wide open, who simply missed, and Monta showed his frustration.
or beans or ronny screwing up
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
this argument is getting to the point were some people just have to start assuming things to try to make ANY point
no truth, no fact, just “saying”. flawed concepts like every missed shot is cause of a passer and it shows up in the boxscore. so i guess if maggs misses on an iso its monta’s fault. lets blame everything on him (not pointed at you IQ)
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
Look
I’m not saying that every missed shot is the fault of the passer, just that good passers seems to actually rack up assists, while bad passers don’t. There has to be reasons for this.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:44 PM PST up reply actions
It's not always the passer's fault
it’s just if a player is missing an open layup off of a pass from Monta, maybe it wasn’t a great pass.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:43 PM PST up reply actions
cant prove it wasnt either
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
An open 3
that’s not really anyone’s fault. Even great 3 point shooters miss more than half of the time.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:45 PM PST up reply actions
actually, the plays that I had in mind
were Tolliver baseline 2s that he missed that Monta set up
let's continue this later
this is too close of a game
Yes it is, lol

well, i just want to make sure the argument is strong enough before i agree to it. But later, not now.

I have no problem with you
I’m just not at a point where I’m comfortable “agreeing to disagree” with you.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:53 PM PST up reply actions
he still passes the same. as effective? thats debatable
ive seen countless times hes had a great pass only to see someone drop the pass or miss badly. let say beans was last year beans, itd be close to 6
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
Yeah, Monta just isn't a good passer
ever notice how players seem to finish when Curry gets them the ball?
Still- he’s a less willing passer now than he has been for most of his career. And he’s a less effective passer because his TOR and TOs are just outrageous.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:36 PM PST up reply actions
TOS and TOR is a tired argument of saying he should be off the ball so I will say it once more
Off ball scorers shouldnt be main passers. And that Curry thing is part of being a real PG , being a better passer for an individual than just passing to the guy. its about the players preference . you cant hate monta for being who he is as a scorer, ask him to do more or anyone to step out of there skill range and it will not look great
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
I don't see what's so tired about it
you’re telling me that Monta is a decent, willing passer. His AR and TOR help to disprove that, so you then tell me that TOR and TO are not important for Monta. You brought up his assists, so I brought up rate stats to counter that. As we all know, per game stats aren’t worthwhile.
I don’t hate Monta. He’s just a basketball player.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:42 PM PST up reply actions
he has been a willing passer and when people keep screwing up he has to try to take over to give us any chance
hes been willing and has come out of his comfort zone to give an effort, but its just not working working with alot of the guys we have. ive never said hes a great passer, hes okay and willing if people move around and provide with buckets.. which is rare
We all love the Warriors..
We all hate Cohan as an owner of this franchise…
I just don't see that with my eyes
and it doesn’t show up in the stats.
I never said you said he was a great passer.
you’re telling me that Monta is a decent, willing passer
is what I said.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:47 PM PST up reply actions
when i said he was great
it was a blatant statement not directed at you personally

by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 6:52 PM PST up reply actions
clear the air of my opinion on his passing

but his misses aren't even CLOSE.
they slam hard off the glass or airball.

Agree completely, Tolliver's form makes me want to puke many times.
I dimiss any 30%+ he shot on threes in D League as luck.

I really can not stand magz
just kills ball movement
How about Detroit's trainer?
Probably slipped something in Stuckey’s DRAAANK. We could do that to Monta every night!

KIDDING
but do we have any other half-court offense than a Maggette iso?
We Believe > We Suck & Long Live '07-'08
Wow
Are you seriously taking a shot at a team’s trainer?

How many assists does Curry have?
Golden State Warriors Fan 4 Life!!!
The Golden Future
PF: Anthony Randolph
PG: Stephen Curry
Can't wait until GS wins a championship!!!
Yes
Texas Tech received four free throws. Oh, and she was only suspended for one game by the NCAA.

Agreed
Punching someone on the court is basically the worst thing you can do.

or maybe about a PG forced to play 48 minutes and create for everyone
by krl on Mar 5, 2010 6:47 PM PST up reply actions
Whatever
Curry is playing with great talent and against a terrible team. He’s clearly a turnover machine playing out of position.

so your saying curry is not a pg for his 7 tos
When collison, evans, and jennings have all had a more to game than curry. Also nash had 7 to’s the other night
Sarcasm
I love Curry. I was stating the wrong obvious.

7 TO is unusual for Curry.
And yes, he’s forced to play a ton of minutes.

Every NBA team must realize Maggette's same move
Driving to his right
We Believe > We Suck & Long Live '07-'08
that's Jamal Crawford
hot and cold. Cold for most of the game, hot this qtr
he's pretty deadly
but his big knock his whole career is that he has been veery inconsistent. He’ll go for 50 and then put up 8 points the next game.
possibly matchups?
possibly bibby not on the floor?
These ATL fans don't realize he went to GT, but that Steph went to DU?

Although a minor school, Curry really magnified that college because of his high level of play. Morrow was a relative unknown at Georgia Tech.

What was that stat that only 3 rookies have ever done 2 or more times- 30pt and 15 assist? Or, was it just 10 assist? I remember Curry was tied with MJ at 2 times.

haha
well, that was a desperation 3, but it counts the same in the box score
game over
great effort, Warriors. I hope Tolliver wasn’t the FIRST OPTION on that final play
I think both would be great
Turner is more of a 2 than a 3 (inb4 someone says “SAME THING”) anyway.

"With the #1 Pick in the 2010 NBA Draft, the Warriors select Jeremy .."

Great effort

Tolliver’s still a 50% 3 pt shooter tonight! His last miss was credited as a long 2
Out of all people
Tolliver takes the three. BLAH
Tolliver is shooting over 50% on three since february
4/8 tonight.
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 7:14 PM PST up reply actions
Live and die by 3
Thanks Don Nelson for preaching defense! Yeah!

We don't take nearly as many threes as the Magic or Suns
by Reverend_Randy on Mar 5, 2010 7:15 PM PST up reply actions
Yet they have defense. Even Amar'e is blocking shots nowadays

Nellie says he'll work on a different part of Curry's game this summer
I wonder what area that would be?
Driving
Curry shoots a high percentage from the line, so maybe he’ll work with him on getting to the rim and potentially the free throw line.

strength and power is what he needs most, he’s pretty good at everything else.
