Predictions

• Stephen Curry plays tonight and nails 4 treys to begin his quest for a season of unbelievably hot shooting: 50% FG, 45% 3pt, and 95% FT.
• Chris Paul shows everyone what all the trade hoopla was about and dishes out 15 assists.
• Monta Ellis ignores the off the court issues and boosts his trade value with a 30 point effort.
• Chauncey Billups is a revolving door on D because he can't keep up with the speedy GSW guards.
• David Lee gets his first 20-10 of the season.
• Blake Griffin begins his Sophomore of the Year campaign with a monster 25-12 night.
• Andris Biedrins only hurts his trade value.
• DeAndre Jordan reminds the Warriors why they tendered him an offer.
• Ekpe Udoh swats 3 shots and plays some fantastic defense.
• Mark Jackson gets the first W of his head coaching career.
