|
| |  | GOLDEN STATE: GUARDS: STEPHEN CURRY is not only the NBA's best shooter, but he has also become a great passer. Durability is the only question about him now . . . KLAY THOMPSON should take advantage of the many open looks he'll get playing alongside Curry and Andre Iguodala . . . The Warriors lost Jarrett Jack and brought in TONEY DOUGLAS. While Douglas got his career on track in Houston last year, he'll strictly be a second-unit guy as Iguodala erases the need for a second point guard . . . NEMANJA NEDOVIC is looking at a redshirt year, especially after an injury-filled summer. The Serbian combo guard should overtake Douglas eventually . . . There are few things in the world better than KENT BAZEMORE celebrating a Curry three. FORWARDS: ANDRE IGUODALA is a perfect fit in Oakland, where he can play point forward and set up the Warriors' many shooters. He's also a crafty cutter who should do some sweet things alongside Stephen Curry . . . DAVID LEE draws attention away from their shooters, which ensures him a significant role. But he kills this team with his awful defense . . . HARRISON BARNES may come off the bench more often, but the Warriors will frequently go small with Barnes stretching to the four, especially after Barnes' impressive postseason showing . . . MARREESE SPEIGHTS steps into Carl Landry's role as a low-post scorer off the bench . . . DRAYMOND GREEN had some trouble as a rookie. He'll have to play his way into this rotation. CENTERS:ANDREW BOGUT is injury-prone and will continue to be an afterthought on offense. They'll have to rest him often during the regular season . . . Between Bogut and JERMAINE O'NEAL, they're hoping at least one of them will be healthy at all times to protect the rim . . . FESTUS EZELI had major knee surgery and is unlikely to return in time for the Feats of Strength or the Airing of Grievances. | | DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is turning into something of a one-man army as the roster around him crumbles. As good as he is as a quick playmaker who can knock down an open three, his supporting cast is lacking . . . EVAN FOURNIER is better than RANDY FOYE now, and he's certainly a bigger part of Denver's future. Fournier proved surprisingly ready for the NBA last season. While Foye brings more scoring power to a team that suddenly lacks offense, he's both inefficient and one-dimensional . . . NATE ROBINSON will provide instant offense and lead the second unit . . . ANDRE MILLER will lose a few minutes this year, but the 37-year-old still has good basketball left. FORWARDS: Coming off a late-season ACL tear, DANILO GALLINARI will be lucky to make it back by December . . . KENNETH FARIED will likely never develop into anything more than an energy guy and high-volume rebounder, but he's good at what he does . . . WILSON CHANDLER can shoot and defend multiple positions. With Gallinari a question mark, he could be in for a much bigger role this year . . . DARRELL ARTHUR is an interesting second-unit player. He's an athlete who was starting to show some skill in Memphis before getting hurt . . . Gunning wingman JORDAN HAMILTON may get a longer look in the second half of the season . . . QUINCY MILLER is likely ticketed for more D-League action . . . ANTHONY RANDOLPH is a lost cause. CENTERS: The time has arrived for JAVALE MCGEE. The front office wants him on the floor full-time. For all the knucklehead plays, he's still an incredible athlete in a massive 7-foot frame . . . Talk of J.J. HICKSON potentially starting is absurd. A brutal defender unable to play within the flow of an offense, he's a second-unit talent . . . TIMOFEY MOZGOV is Plan B behind McGee. The 7-footer can defend and set screens. |

*Warriors-Nuggets Preview* ==========================
By JEFF MEZYDLO STATS Senior Writer
Golden State (50-31) at Denver (36-45), 10:30 p.m. EDT
Before the Golden State Warriors figure out how to succeed in the first round of the playoffs without starting center Andrew Bogut, they'll look to conclude the regular season with their most victories in 22 years.
The Warriors will try to top the 50-win mark Wednesday night when they visit the Denver Nuggets.
Last season, Golden State (50-31) upset third-seeded Denver in its first playoff series since 2007. While the Nuggets (36-45) won't be returning to the postseason, the Warriors are headed to the playoffs in consecutive years for the first time since 1991-1992 as the No. 6 seed.
After securing their first 50-win season since '93-94 with a 130-120 home victory over Minnesota on Monday, the Warriors will top that mark for the first time since going 55-27 two years earlier - if they can avoid a third straight defeat to Denver.
"Fifty is a special number," coach Mark Jackson said. "Some of (the team members) never hit 50, and I don't want to be prophetic, but some of them, there's a chance they won't ever hit 50 again."
How far Golden State advances in the playoffs depends on if it's able to overcome the loss of the 7-foot Bogut, who will miss his second straight contest Wednesday and possibly all of the postseason with a fractured rib. Though Bogut averages 7.3 points, he ranks among the league leaders with 10.0 rebounds per game and provides an obviously strong defensive presence in the paint.
His absence leaves the Warriors severely undersized with 35-year-old Jermaine O'Neal as the only other serious inside option.
"We hope a miracle happens with Andrew," said star guard Stephen Curry, who is averaging a career-high 24.0 points. "We'll see what happens, but as a team we're focused on what the challenge ahead of us is and we've got to move forward."
The Warriors will be sure to follow the lead of Curry, who had 32 points with 15 assists against the Timberwolves. He's averaged 32.8 points on 54.2 percent shooting in the last five games and recorded at least 12 assists in three of those contests.
Curry scored 24 in each of the last two home losses to the Nuggets after he was held to 14 during the Warriors' 89-81 win at Denver on Dec. 23.
Teammate David Lee scored 28 points in that contest, and had 25 on Monday as Golden State overcame 53.1 percent shooting from Minnesota and 40 points from Kevin Love.
The Warriors hope for a better defensive effort during this postseason tune-up after yielding 239 points on 51.5 percent shooting in the last two games.
Kenneth Faried hit a turnaround hook shot with a half-second remaining in Denver's 100-99 victory at Golden State Thursday.
"We showed that we have the fight and will to win," Faried said after he finished with 18 points and 17 rebounds.
Denver's Timofey Mozgov set a career high with 29 rebounds and matched a personal best with 23 points in that contest.
Teammate Randy Foye has totaled 41 points in the two games at Golden State after he was held to one made free throw in 10 minutes of the December home defeat.
Faried had 21 points and Mozgov added 18 with 11 boards Tuesday, but Denver allowed the Los Angeles Clippers to shoot 53.0 percent during a 117-105 road defeat that snapped its three-game winning streak.
