The Golden State Warriors need someone to step up at center

alleyoop — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 22:16:07 +0000

With Kwame Brown likely done for the season due to injury, the Warriors need someone to step up at center. They want that guy to be 25-year old Andris Biedrins. Biedrins has played in 16 games (all starts) for the Warriors so far this year and he is averaging 17.0 minutes, 3.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 0.3 assists and 1.2 blocked shots per game. Biedrins is scared to go to the basket offensively as he is only 1 for 5 (20%) shooting from the free throw line this year, showing his utter lack of aggressiveness on the offensive side of the basketball court. 24-year old Ekpe Udoh isn’t playing much better so far this year. Udoh has played in 19 games (0 starts) for the Warriors so far this year and he is averaging 17.8 minutes, 4.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 1.4 blocked shots per game. The Warriors are reluctant to give 20-year old rookie Jeremy Tyler a shot at legit P.T. right now. He has played in 9 games (0 starts) for the Warriors so far this year and he is averaging 4.0 minutes, 1.4 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game. Recently signed 30-year old Earl Barron might be likely to see more P.T. in the near future if Biedrins and Udoh continue to be unimpressive. Barron has played in 1 game for the Warriors, working 6 minutes in which he had 2 points and 1 rebound. Center has been a black hole for the Warriors so far this year.

David Lee is off to a really solid start for the Golden State Warriors this year

alleyoop — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 00:47:10 +0000

28-year old power forward David Lee is off to a great start for the Warriors this year. He has played in 16 games (all starts) for the Warriors so far this year and he is averaging 37.1 minutes, 18.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals per game. Lee is shooting 51.4% from the floor this year, but only 67.6% from the free throw line. He needs to improve his free throw shooting because he gets to the line a lot. That’s nitpicking though as Lee is the only big man willing to really mix it up in the paint for the Warriors.
