Game 7. (2-4) @ Golden State Warriors (4-3). 10:30PM ET.
Warriors starters: Curry, Thompson, Igoudala, Lee, Bogut.
Our first back to back of the season, and its on the road, after an awful showing yesterday in portland. We have been awful defending the perimeter this season, and the warriors have the two best shooters in the league. Its a very similar sort of set up to portland, but better at every position. (shooters at the guards, a slasher/playmaker who can step out and hit a 3 at SF, a scoring PF, and a defensive C.) And dont forget about harrison barnes, who hasnt played too well so far this season, but is a very good player. All this is leading me to think this could be a blowout, and early.
The rotation on our part needs work, because what we are currently using, isnt working. Billups is meant to be out there with the starters to keep it calmed down, but is just playing awful, and will bynum is never a positive when out there, other than the few games where he heats up and scores 30. Either im hoping billups decides he needs rest on the back-to-back, or stuckey/KCP starts over him at the 2 and he moves will bynum out of the rotation. The biggest problem though, is that none of jerebko, CV, Datome can play the backup PF minutes. No matter who cheeks puts out there isnt going to get the job done.. mitchell looked decent in some of the pre-season games, it might be worth giving him a shot. I would also like to see datome take singlers minutes. Its time to give these more experienced players a kick in the butt, and this is the perfect way to do it.

10:30pm? Ain't nobody got time for that...
Time to go to work. Going down 2-6 would be a very disappointing start.

The Pistons defense will alter the fabric of reality itself, allowing curry to score 27 three pointers on 17 attempts.

my fantasy team hopes Chaunceys out there trying to guard Klay but if theres ever a time to see what KCP can give us its probably this game, he's probably our only guard that has the size to match-up with Thompson.

If Bynum play, KCP won't, we'll be blowout.

I don't see us being very competitive, but i'll be happy if KCP gets some minutes and we at least put up a fight.

KCP may slow down Klay, but we'll get blown out regardless since Curry is unguardable when he gets going and we're terrible on perimeter defense since we collapse the paint and run pretty little zones that doesn't work.
And plus KCP probably won't play because apparently Stuckey and Bynum are substantially better.

Yea,if billups starts we lose.This has to be kcp"s chance.I think billups will fake an injury just to get kcp his chance because he himself is probably embarresed.

As a Pistons fan I'm scared for this game.
But on the other hand, the Warriors are my favorite team in the league to watch, so I'm excited.

The splash bros will set the record in most made 3s since we don't play defenders on the perimeter. Anyone wanna bet?
