"Curry sprained his ankle during the fourth quarter of game 3, one the Warriors went on to lose. Head Coach Mark Jackson stated Golden State’s leading scorer would undergo treatment on Saturday. The team will make a decision on his ability to play before tipoff on Sunday."

Of course players with "game-time decision" status almost always play through the pain. Still, I wonder if this will affect his ability on the court, so that should be interesting to see.

This tweak was not looking bad. But maybe he is there for a heroic game.
Good that the stetment is not him having severe ankle injury

Doesn't matter as long as Green shuts him down.

It matters. If Geen is on Curry, Parker is on Klay or Barnes and MJ coud go back to posting him up like in game 1 or 2.

Id rather have Jack on the floor. Parker can defend him

If you could gauge it, you think you’ll be able to play?

I think so. You never really know how it’s going to feel the next day. You just keep with the treatment. Same ol’ story. I have the same answers. I hope it feels good enough to go tomorrow. But until I wake up tomorrow and see, you just hope for the best right now.

Did you get a chance to see what happened?

Tried to stop short and change directions, overcooked it just a little bit. It wasn’t as bad as the one I did in Denver, it just happened to be the same foot. Compounding the fact that it wasn’t all the way healed from last time and just a repeat turn. I’m pretty optimistic I’ll be able to play in whatever the capacity, I’ll be on the floor.

Will you be limited or play the same way?

If I can give the team anything, I will play. I feel like if I can get to a point where I’m not hobbling and I can cut how I want to. It doesn’t gave to be 100 percent, as long as I can be confident that it won’t do any further damage. I have a feeling I’ll be at that point tomorrow, no problem.

Have you ruled out an anti-inflammatory shot?

I don’t want to do it just because I have already done it twice already this postseason. You don’t want to get into that kind of habit. So I’m hoping my body responds on its own enough to eliminate that from the conversation.

I figure SC will play, but DG will handle him again.

A bigger question is whether David Lee will get significant minutes, based on how he felt after Game 3.

Of course it will effect his play. A less than 100% curry means this series is over in 5. Good news, Spurs can get some rest for either Memphis or Oklahoma. :tu

He'll play but his movement will be shit. But Tony might play terribly as well with that bruise..

Just for the record, here are Curry's shooting stats in this series outside of the 3rd quarter of Game 1:

FG: 21-61 (34.4%)

3P: 7-23 (30.4%)

How much of that was by Green?

He will play. And we shall increase the intensity on defense on him.

I don't buy it. He'll play and he won't look like he's hurt besides acting after play is dead. They're trying to lull the Spurs into a false sense of security and hope they will lax their defense on him and focus on other guys and let him go off for awhile before it dawns on them that he's actually almost 100% anyway.

Mind games imo. I hope the Spurs play even harder defense on Curry now and even rough him up a little if he goes inside.

If he wants to play, then we need to treat him like Drago would. It's irrelevant if he is 100% or not.

David Lee is absolutely not a concern, he's a horrible rotation defender and anyone we post up on him will have a field day.

DL's 19 PTs + 11 RB this season

vs

TD's 19 + 10. He's significant contribution/loss.

David Lee not playing favors the W's to play at a more frenetic with that Scrub Barnes.

Curry is a nonfactor. Curry and Thompson have learned what happens when you come out and disrespect the 4-time NBA champs.

Curry did not roll his ankle that bad. I see him playing virtually the same level he's been playing against us all series. CIA Jackson.

Wow -- one game is all it took for everyone to go from this board thinking everything is hopeless back to thinking Golden State is completely doomed? Geez, will everything switch back again if the Ws even up the series?

His point was that Lee was a horrible defender, not that he can't score 19 points and get 10 rebounds. Duncan makes a much, much bigger impact defensively than Lee. That doesn't show up in PPG and RPG.

Whether he can cut or not, whether he's hurting or not, Spurs need to treat him with extreme prejudice. Stick to him like glue and bump him off the ball as much as you can get away with

Depends how bad the loss is if we lose. If it's close, then no. We already got homecourt back and I would hope that they aren't winning another one in our building.

my point IS that a healthy 19-11 David Lee isn't negated by his weak defense.
