|
| | | WASHINGTON: GUARDS: Late last year, JOHN WALL finally started to fulfill his promising talent. He got wherever he wanted on the court, and the Wizards were very tough to guard with all the shooters surrounding him . . . BRADLEY BEAL and Wall should mesh beautifully. Beal is a potentially elite shooter, and he rebounds very well for a guard . . . ERIC MAYNOR is fully healthy again after tearing his ACL two seasons ago. He can play some alongside Wall, but mostly he'll be the league's best back-up point guard again . . . GLEN RICE JR. doesn't shoot it nearly as well as his father, but he's an athlete who could break into the rotation down the line . . . GARRETT TEMPLE is insurance in case Wall or Maynor goes down. FORWARDS: The Wizards need NENÊ’S low post offense. It seems inevitable that they'll have to cap his minutes . . . OTTO PORTER is likely to step into the starting lineup early on. They need his defense, as he can guard twos through fours . . . MARTELL WEBSTER will platoon with Porter, providing another outstanding shooter for Wall to feed . . . TREVOR ARIZA is playing out the string on an untradeable deal . . . TREVOR BOOKER has some use as a screener and low-post banger, but not much else . . . AL HARRINGTON may be inefficient, but he can score points in a hurry and is a decent defender'JAN VESELY is still trying to figure out the NBA, though it's too early to give up on his athleticism . . . CHRIS SINGLETON can defend, but he's no more than a garbage-time player due to his atrocious offense. CENTERS: EMEKA OKAFOR may be absurdly overpaid, but he's settled in as a passable starter who helps defensively and doesn't hurt on offense. He'll also miss the beginning of the season with a herniated disc . . . With Okafor's deal expiring at the end of the year, KEVIN SERAPHIN is auditioning to be Washington's center of the future. After showing promise two seasons ago, he was a disaster last season. | | 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. |

*Wizards-Warriors Preview* ==========================
By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer
Washington (21-22) at Golden State (27-18), 10:30 p.m. EDT
After struggling defensively in recent weeks, the Golden State Warriors slowed down the NBA's highest-scoring team their last time out.
They'll look to continue to fortify their defensive play and knock off the visiting Washington Wizards for the seventh straight time Tuesday night.
The Warriors (27-18), who are 10-3 against Eastern Conference clubs, had dropped five of seven while opponents averaged 108.4 points on 47.8 percent shooting. They had been holding teams to 98.3 points and a 42.9 field-goal percentage.
Golden State appeared to get back on track in a 103-88 victory over Portland on Sunday, ending a three-game home skid in a performance coach Mark Jackson said was "just what the doctor ordered." The Trail Blazers came in averaging a league-leading 109.5 points but were held to a season-low point total and shooting percentage (33.7).
All-Star Stephen Curry scored 38 points but may have had a bigger impact on the other end of the floor, contributing to a 5-of-16 shooting performance by Damian Lillard.
"We understand that's been one of our problems - just letting teams kind of cake walk around on the offensive end doing whatever they want to do early in the game," Curry said.
Despite showing promise at times, the Wizards (21-22) continue to be plagued by a tendency to play to their opponent's level. A 104-101 loss at Utah on Saturday saw them squander their sixth chance this season to go over the .500 mark for the first time since starting 2-1 in 2009-10. Only one of their defeats in those games came against a club with a winning record.
Washington had won five of six away from home before starting guards John Wall and Bradley Beal combined to go 9 of 30 with 27 points.
"We were running in mud half the game, in my opinion," coach Randy Wittman said. "We wouldn't commit ourselves to our pace."
Though it didn't cost the Wizards in Friday's 101-95 win over Phoenix, their bench endured another rough outing with 18 points on 7-of-19 shooting against Utah. Washington reserves were 5 of 20 with 11 points versus the Suns after averaging 29.9 points on 53.6 percent shooting over the previous seven games.
The Wizards have one of the league's least productive benches, averaging 24.8 points.
While Washington's reserves outscored Golden State's 51-27, a strong third quarter lifted the Warriors - last in the league with 22.9 points per game off the bench - to a 112-96 win in Washington on Jan. 5. Golden State outscored the Wizards 34-15 in the third for its 10th win in 13 meetings.
Klay Thompson scored 26 and went 6 of 9 from 3-point range to pick up Curry, who was 5 of 17 from the field with 14 points. Curry shot 52.3 percent over his first seven matchups, hitting 22 of 47 from beyond the arc.
Thompson is averaging 21.3 points and has hit 18 of 30 3s in his four career meetings with Washington. Golden State is shooting 46.6 percent from long range during its six-game win streak in the series.
Wall and Beal struggled in the last meeting, totaling 23 points on 8-of-26 shooting.
David Lee, who had 17 points and 12 rebounds Sunday despite playing with a sprained left shoulder, is averaging 21.2 points and 12.8 rebounds over his last 13 games against the Wizards.
