Curry with 34 on 13-22 shooting and 6-11 from 3, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and only 1 turnover. Shawn freaking Livingston scored 18 points on 6-8 shooting, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and no turnovers. Our point guards combined for 11 points on 4-12 shooting, 1-5 from 3. Terry sucked against the Warriors in the regular season as well. Curry killed us when he matched up against him as well. I hate how this is all we have to guard their MVP while they have 5 excellent defenders to throw at Harden.
Terry went from defending Chris Paul in game 7 to guarding Curry 2 days later poor guy, we really need some depth in that position
Prig lost Curry a couple of times but overall he seemed to defend better than JET did. This wasn't Terry's finest game. Luckily for him J-Smoove (despite some BIG shots) had some buttery hands late on and TJones just flat out stunk.
JET is old. theres nothing we can really do about it. we can just hope he makes his open shots next game. as long as he can make his open 3s hes doing his job. he wouldnt be able to guard curry even in his prime
This is why Beverley rips off his cast (metaphorically) and trots onto the court Willis Reed style in game three.
Bev looked tired late in the season and was a brick house. JET at least makes his threes. Bev wouldn't stop Curry even if healthy; also it would probably take Bev two or three games (or more) to get his game legs back. Don't expect miracles the first game back after months off.
We know Curry is going to go off this series. There's nothing that can be done about that with Beverley's injury.
All we have to do is win one of the road games. I think we can win every single home game. Our crowd will be going nuts and it's well documented that role players perform better at home.
Don't bring Prigioni into this. He doesn't look to score first. Terry's ONLY job is to knock down long shots, and he's been miserable at that lately. Prigioni led the team with +/- of +10 this game. Terry was the worst on our team with a -8. Terry plays roughly twice as many minutes as Prigs. This is consistently how the box score looks at the end of our games. Switch their minutes, and you'll see dramatic improvement.
