|
| |  | PORTLAND: GUARDS: DAMIAN LILLARD is for real, an elite shooter and a natural running the pick-and-roll. Though we're a little worried about what will happen if pick-and-pop partner LaMarcus Aldridge is dealt sometime this season . . . WESLEY MATTHEWS will be battling for playing time with Portland loading up on wings . . . C.J. MCCOLLUM can play either guard spot, but primarily he's a scorer and a potentially elite shooter. He is, however, out a few months with a foot fracture. . . MO WILLIAMS will provide the Blazers with a veteran guard presence who is more than capable of lighting it up on any given night. He is, however, a major defensive liability'If he straightens out his jumper, WILL BARTON could end up being a solid second-unit player . . . EARL WATSON gives them a much more reliable back-up point guard than Ronnie Price was . . . Sharpshooter ALLEN CRABBE will likely find himself in the D-League early on. FORWARDS: LAMARCUS ALDRIDGE's name will be in trade rumors all season, but it won't affect his role as this team's No. 1 option . . . NICOLAS BATUM will continue to do a little bit of everything, playing point forward to allow Lillard to play off the ball at times, and serving as a dangerous three-point shooter . . . DORELL WRIGHT can lock opponents down when he wants to. He'll push Wesley Matthews for minutes . . . Portland will be the next team to try to squeeze production out of 2012 No. 5 pick THOMAS ROBINSON. After Sacramento and Houston both gave up on him almost immediately, Robinson in danger of falling off the NBA map . . . VICTOR CLAVER provides some energy as a second-unit bit player . . . JOEL FREELAND has six fouls to give. CENTERS: ROBIN LOPEZ will be a better fit alongside Aldridge than J.J. Hickson was. Lopez isn't skilled, but he can take some defensive responsibilities away from Aldridge . . . MEYERS LEONARD is, as expected, still a work in progress. He's enormous and there's some raw talent, but he too often looks lost. | | 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. |

*Trail Blazers-Warriors Preview* ================================
By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer
Portland (11-2) at Golden State (8-5), 10:30 p.m. EDT
While the Portland Trail Blazers are off to their best start in 14 years, they'll have to pick up a rare win in the Bay Area to extend their winning streak.
They could get a little help if both Stephen Curry and Andre Iguodala can't play for the Golden State Warriors.
The surprising Trail Blazers seek their 10th straight victory Saturday night while also looking to avoid a 15th loss in their last 17 games at Golden State.
After going 4-0 on its eastern trip, Portland (11-2) returned home and continued to roll Friday, rallying from a 21-point deficit for a 98-95 victory over Chicago.
Wesley Matthews had a season-high 28 points and Damian Lillard added 20 to help the Blazers run their win streak to nine - their longest since a 13-game run Dec. 3-30, 2007.
"We didn't change any schemes," coach Terry Stotts said. "We just played harder, played better, played with more focus, more intensity, more attitude."
Portland hasn't dropped a road game since a season-opening 104-91 loss at Phoenix, winning its last six by an average of 11.0 points. The Blazers have averaged 105.8 points and posted a plus-6.0 rebounding margin during that road streak.
It's been a much different story, however, in Oakland, where the Northwest Division leaders have averaged 94.7 points while dropping 14 of 16.
In their most recent visit on March 30, Curry poured in 39 points and hit 7 of 12 from 3-point range to lead the Warriors to a 125-98 win.
Curry, though, is expected to be a game-time decision after missing Friday's 102-95 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers because of what the team called a "mild concussion." The Warriors will likely be without Iguodala, who left the game with a hamstring injury.
"Once I heard a pop, I knew it was serious," said Iguodala, who added that he'll have an MRI on Saturday.
The Warriors (8-5) have averaged 107.3 points and are 8-2 with Curry (19.9 ppg), but they've scored just 83.3 in three losses without him.
Following a season-high four-game winning streak, the Warriors have dropped back-to-back contests despite Harrison Barnes filling in nicely for Curry in the lineup. Barnes has totaled 36 points on 15-of-27 shooting in the two contests.
"We're a no-excuse basketball team, and it's just disappointing right now," coach Mark Jackson said. "We cannot walk away with a good taste with how we played and the effort we put forth."
Klay Thompson, the team's leading scorer at 20.5 per game, also should be able to help pick up the offense. He's averaged 25.3 points on 63.4 percent shooting - including 23 of 43 from 3-point range - in six home games.
The Warriors, who have allowed 91.3 points and a 42.7 field-goal percentage over their last four overall, will have to figure out a way to contain Portland's Big Three of Matthews, Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge.
Lillard, the 2012-13 rookie of the year, had one of his best games at Golden State on Jan. 11, scoring 37 points and hitting 7 of 12 from beyond the arc in a 103-97 loss.
Aldridge, leading Portland with 21.7 points per game, will try to bounce back after matching a season low with 12 points on 4-of-20 shooting against the Bulls.
Although he's averaged 25.0 points on 50.0 percent shooting in six road games this season, Aldridge has scored just 13.6 while shooting 37.5 percent in nine career games in Oakland.
The Blazers, off to their best start since opening 13-2 in 1999-2000, will try to avoid their fourth straight loss to the Warriors.
