Re: Game Thread: Detroit Pistons @ Golden State Warriors: Nov. 11/06
This one wouldn't be all that tough if it weren't a back to back on the road. I'm not sure if Jason Richardson is playing or not, but he's been struggling this year, which is a shame since I'm a fan of his. Baron Davis just had a really great game against New Orleans, with 36 points, 9 assists, and 0 turnovers. He still probably takes too many threes given his accuracy, but he can be deadly. Nelson gave up on the point forward Dunleavy thing as far as I know, so we probably won't be able to abuse them on the inside as badly as we could have if they were still trying that. Andris Biedrins is shooting like 78% so far, so hopefully we can defend him. He does get into foul trouble on occasion, so maybe we can take advantage of that. Watch out for Monta Ellis, this kid can play. I'm wondering if Diogu is going to play, he torched us for 27 last season, and that was with Wallace.
This team's offense is pretty good, they get to the line a lot and shoot an above average percentage. They're a weak rebounding team, especially on the offensive end so hopefully we can take advantage of that. Their defense so far has been pretty bad as well. If our legs don't fail us, we should win this. Prince and Billups played 35+ minutes yesterday, so they might come out a little sluggish.
