Baron Davis will need a big night off the bench and will want to set his teammates up like he did in his first game with the same energy he had in his first game with the Warriors. SG: Jason Richardson will be up against another good guard today and will need to come up big. Richardson?s defense has improved, so he should probably limit Jamal Crawford a bit. Also Richardson will need to keep being clutch tonight. Mickael Pietrus will need a big game off the bench and provide some much needed defense in this game as well as scoring. SF: Mike Dunleavy will need a big game tonight against an inexperienced rookie, Mike Sweetney. Dunleavy will need to use his passing skills to his advantage as Sweetney is a guy who will most likely look for Dunleavy to score instead of pass. Rodney White will most likely get some playing time tonight and will need to get hot while he plays and get some points. PF: Troy Murphy will need to overtake Tim Thomas and do what he did against Washington, drive, get boards, and get fouled. If he can do that the Warriors will most likely get another win. Zarko Cabarkapa will need a big night off the bench and he should let Tim Thomas chase him around while Zarko gets some points C: Adonal Foyle will need to bring his defense into tonight?s game and dominate the glass with Troy Murphy and get some points down low. Andris Biedrins will most likely get a lot of playing time tonight matching up against Kurt Thomas and Mike Sweetney. Andris will need to get the ball down low so that he can score as well as play some good D.</font> <font size="3">Warriors MVP</font> <font size="2">Jason Richardson 23.2 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 3.8 apg in 38.4 minutes Projected Stats: 27 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists</font> <font size="3">Knicks Head Coach</font> <font size="2">Herb Williams</font> <font size="3">Knicks Projected Starting Lineup</font> <font size="2">PG: Stephon Marbury 21.1 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 8.2 apg in 39.7 minutes SG: Jamal Crawford 18.0 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 3.8 apg in 36.3 minutes SF: Mike Sweetney 8.2 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 0.5 apg in 18.3 minutes PF: Tim Thomas 11.1 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 1.4 apg in 26.9 minutes C: Kurt Thomas 11.9 ppg, 10.2 rpg, 2.1 apg in 36.8 minutes</font> <font size="3">Knicks Key Bench Player</font> <font size="2">Trevor Ariza 6.3 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 1.3 apg in 18.1 minutes Projected Stats: 7 points, 3 rebounds, 1assists </font> <font size="3">Knicks Injured Players</font> <font size="2">Jackie Butler (right patella tendinitis) Allan Houston (Left knee pain ? patellofemoral arthritis)</font> <font size="3">Knicks Keys To Winning</font> <font size="2">PG: Stephon Marbury will need to have a very unselfish night against the Warriors and will need to have a big scoring night in order for the Knicks to get a win tonight. SG: Jamal Crawford will want to have a big game tonight against the Warriors and will need to contain Jason Richardson as best as possible while getting big points. Crawford will also need to get the ball down low as well as Stephon Marbury in order for the Knicks to win SF: Mike Sweetney will need to watch out for Mike Dunleavy who has been having some very good games lately. Sweetney will have the advantage on the glass and will want to use it and start fast breaks off the boards. PF: Tim Thomas will want to pray that he can get some points to make himself not look foolish for a 6?11 guy that gets 3 boards a night since he is playing against Troy Murphy who will most likely get a double-double. Jerome Williams will want to have a big game off the bench for the Knicks and get some boards as well as Trevor Ariza. C: Kurt Thomas will really need to dominate the glass for the Knicks and get some points down low against Adonal Foyle who will most likely get a few fouls that can get the Knicks some points.</font> <font size="3">Knicks MVP</font> <font size="2"> Jamal Crawford 18.0 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 3.8 apg in 36.3 minutes Projected Stats: 17 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists</font> <font size="3">Prediction</font> <font size="2">The Warriors will most likely win this game. Jason Richardson will get 27 points to go with 7 boards while Baron Davis will get 8 assists and 11 points going 4/7 from the field.
