Stephen Curry

As MSG completes a $1 billion dollar renovation, it seems odd that only 1 NBA All-Star Game ever took place there (in 1998), while the New York Knicks have made 5 NBA Finals. Honorable Mention: Bernard King’s 60, Amar’e Stoudemire’s 41, Carmelo Anthony’s 41, Kyrie Irving’s 41, Jeremy Lin’s 38 [...]

When it comes to Kyrie Irving, the Cleveland Cavaliers can’t be too careful. All of 20 years old, Irving appears fated to be a top five player in the NBA at some point. Already, he’s one of just four players in the league averaging at least 20 points and fives assists per game while shooting [...]

Monta Ellis is an enigma, but is he one that can make a worthwhile contribution on a contending NBA team? The volume shooting guard has peaked my curiosity since his days with the Golden State Warriors. He can score in bunches and sometimes seemingly at will. Other times, his shots are so off he seems [...]

Stephen Curry torched the New York Knicks for 54 points Wednesday night, sending the most potent of “what could have been” messages possible. As I’m sure most remember, the Knicks had their sights set on Curry in the 2009 NBA draft, but the Golden State Warriors took him seventh overall. Adding insult to injury was [...]

Stephen Curry should have been selected to the 2013 NBA All-Star…we think. Though the point guard is having a career-year en route to rendering the Golden State Warriors legitimate contenders, he was passed over for the All-Star game in favor of James Harden, Tony Parker and Russell Westbrook. But was such a snub justified? I [...]

The Golden State Warriors have established themselves as an NBA powerhouse—without Andrew Bogut. Now let that sink in. Especially the part about the Warriors being a powerhouse. Surprised? Shocked? Confused? So is the rest of the basketball world. Once that has set in, attempt to comprehend the latter. Golden State is 22-10, without Bogut. He [...]

Perhaps even more surprising than the Golden State Warriors’ 17-8 record is their newly wrinkled defense. Mark Jackson was always going to put a particular stress on the defensive end of his basketball team. The question then became: how in the world are you supposed to do that with virtually no size or physical presence? [...]

What in the hell is going on with the Golden State Warriors? Somehow, essentially without the likes of Andrew Bogut and Brandon Rush, Golden State finds itself atop the NBA’s Pacific Division. In case you’re wondering, that’s the same Pacific Division that houses both the Los Angeles Clippers and Los Angeles Lakers. So, I repeat, [...]

The Golden State Warriors are all about taking risks. They took a risk when they paid David Lee an arm and a leg to join the team. They took a risk when they shipped out Monta Ellis last season and they took an even bigger risk bringing Andrew Bogut back in return. And now they [...]
