KEY GAME INFORMATION
GOLDEN STATE: BACKCOURT: PG Steph Curry had the single greatest regular season in the history of basketball, so, uh, there's that. He'll get fewer shots this year, but more open looks, as well. There's an argument to be made that SG Klay Thompson is the best two-way guard in the league, and he may now find himself focusing more on the defensive end of the floor. It's already consensus that rookie SG Patrick McCaw was an absolute steal in the second round. . . . FRONTCOURT: If you checked the transactions wire this offseason, you may have noticed that the Warriors signed SF Kevin Durant. No one knows exactly how the offense will function with him in the mix; they just know it will be dominant. PF David West also joins the fold as a veteran backup to PF Draymond Green. SF Andre Iguodala's still around, too. C Zaza Pachulia is the team's best center, which no one seems concerned about, for some reason. . . . BOTTOM LINE: It's easy to forget just how effortless some of the Warriors' wins were last year. They're not chasing a record anymore, but they won't need to do so to hit another ungodly win total with KD onboard.
NEW ORLEANS: BACKCOURT: PG Jrue Holiday is out indefinitely taking care of his wife, who is ill. His presence will make a significant impact when he returns, as the offense runs through him. G Tyreke Evans can do a lot of things, but is much less steady as a ball handler. No one doubts rookie SG Buddy Hield can shoot, but he has a lot to prove in other areas. New Orleans also signed SG Lance Stephenson in the offseason. . . . FRONTCOURT: It should tell you something that PF Anthony Davis had something of a disappointing season with over 24 points and 10 rebounds per game. He's still only 23, and ought to improve for years to come. Perhaps coach Alvin Gentry should move him to center, because Omer Asik and Alexis Ajinca are both weak spots for New Orleans when they're on the floor there. . . . BOTTOM LINE: It was an underwhelming season in New Orleans last year, in no small part due to injuries. Their ability to go over the total would seem, right now, highly dependent on when Holiday returns. Frankly, he has more important issues to deal with.
PREVIEW
Warriors, Pelicans seek redemption from disappointing openers
 

NEW ORLEANS -- There's no question which was the bigger shocker on opening night: the Golden State Warriors losing their home opener by 29 points to the San Antonio Spurs or the New Orleans Pelicans wasting a superhuman, 50-point, 16-rebound, seven-steal, four-block performance by Anthony Davis in a 107-102 home loss to Denver.

The Warriors won that bar bet -- or actually lost it -- hands down.

The new-look Warriors, with the gaudy addition of All-Star forward Kevin Durant, were not supposed to be 0-1 after going 39-2 on their home court last year en route to an NBA-record 73 regular-season victories.

The Pelicans, with Davis as their only bankable star, were supposed to find creative ways to lose, and they came through with a whopper, squandering a stat line unique in NBA history.

The two 0-1 teams will face each other Friday night at the Smoothie King Center, and they will be searching for early-season redemption.

"It was a slap in the face," Durant said after scoring 27 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in the loss to San Antonio. "Woke us up a bit."

Davis said after his 50-point opener -- only the third 50-point performance in an NBA season opener since 1963-64 -- that he expects to play as many minutes as Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry needs him to play, but he added he was due for "a massage."

Carrying the load of a lightweight roster may get pretty heavy, but Davis said no one is shedding tears for him. And, now, the wounded Warriors await.

"After what happened a few nights ago, we know that they're going to come in hungry for a win," Davis said. "We've just got to come out prepared knowing those guys are going to take some bad shots and make them go in. We've got to stay composed and not let that kill our spirit and let the momentum go to them."

Gentry saw the Pelicans give up 60 first-half points against Denver before settling in and being more physical in the second half. He knows Golden State, for whom he coached as an assistant in 2014-15, will be looking to push the ball.

"Transition defense is going to be the key," Gentry said. "You've got to keep those guys out of the paint. The drive and kick is what they live on, spotting up at the 3-point line. People have to help on drives, and then they kick the ball and hit 3-point shots."

This is the first of a three-game road trip for Golden State. The Warriors -- like the Pelicans -- were embarrassed on the boards in their opener, losing the battle to San Antonio 55-35, including a 21-8 edge on the offensive glass. In six of their nine regular-season losses last year, the Warriors were outrebounded. That was the case in seven of their nine postseason losses last year.

Golden State also pushed the pace against San Antonio but committed 16 turnovers, which led to 17 Spurs' points.

For all their talent in one locker room, the Warriors still need continuity. They are breaking in six new players, including two new starters, Durant and center Zaza Pachulia.

"People don't value continuity enough," Golden State GM Bob Myers said. "It's just so important -- experience together, continuity together. We will get there, but we're not there now. People may rear back at that kind of comment, but it's OK not to be a finished product in October."
