The Warriors may be struggling but Steph Curry is coming into Boston absolutely blazing (32-48 for 92 points over the last two games). That being said we are about to witness just how amazing Avery Bradley is, and hopefully continue to realize just how important he is to this team going forward.

When Boston visited GS on that dreaded trip out West back in December, Curry was a spectacularly efficient 8-13 with 9 assist in limited minutes (he did have 5 to's tho). Bradley did not play in that game, but he will be there with bells on to greet Curry as he steps off the bus in Boston.

I'm not saying Lillard from Portland is in Curry's class (just yet), but he's pretty darned good and Bradley corralled him into a 5-16 kind of night. I'm not expecting the same thing from Curry, but I would be willing to bet my NBA League Pass that Curry won't be doing his lame Mark Jackson celebratory wiggle up and down the parquet after AB and the C's get done with them. Bradley will see double digits against Curry's suspect defense and the C's will send Curry and the Warriors off to Philly with their 3rd straight loss.

c'mon light skinned...Curry is being held to 32, but he is taking 25 shots to get :P

Bradley should do well guarding Curry, but I'm more intrested in an improved effort on Barnes and Thompson, particularly Thompson who Doc for some reason thought it would be a good idea to put Jason Terry on him despite giving up about 5 inches.

The X factor will be Jack. Killed us last time, part of Terry and Lee didn't do a good job on him either, hopefully fortunes will change this time around.

Terry and Lee played a lot of minutes that game.

AB will be fine vs Curry.

Like BudWeiser stated, I'm concerned about Jack and Co, though.

I expect AB to do a much better job then Iman Shumpert...lol.

but what matters is a win, which the knicks were able to get.....because of tyson chandler.
