Curry is questionable for this game. We just might have some kind of a shot if Batum plays.

With Curry out, it becomes easier to stop Thompson. If he struggles via good defense or a cold shooting night, then you need two guys to get hot, especially from three. One would be Kemba Walker. Who will the other one be?

Yeah, I think there's a chance. These guys should be flat-out embarrassed at the way they tanked in December against the Warriors. Curry did not even have to play the fourth quarter.

Lin or Batum but both guys are questionable and even when they play aren't themselves. They could both go for 30 if right. Lamb has a chance to go 20 plus as well as Frank. No Lin or Batum is hard. Neither one is a no go even Curry-less and against a lot of teams.

If Curry is out, I expect to see a lot of Livingston posting up Kemba.

when the only way you see your team winning is that you must assume that the opposing team plays at their worst and that your team plays at their best...

our defense can't keep up with GS right now.

All I know is if Charlotte gets blown out and Clifford doesn't put in Hansbrough just to spin around with his arms out like Zangief from Street Fighter I'll be sorely disappointed.

There are three buttons on Hansbrough's head. You have to mash them all at once. Pro tip.

Put Hansbrough on Draymond Green just to break his nose (if only Hans as tough as advertise and not just a fake tough guy).

Lin and Hawes are now listed as "probable." Batum is "out," according to the Hornets' website. We need Lin to have a fighting chance.

I think both Lin and Batum and both not the way they are now. I don't think there is a chance. .500 comes tonight unfortunately.

If Curry is out, it is a winnable game as long as we control Draymond. It took a super-human game from him just for them to beat Denver. We should start Hansbrough just to bait him into some early fouls. Not even joking.
investigate Adam Silver
