“I told them, when (forward) Rashard Lewis came to Orlando as a free agent, his big thing was that he didn’t want to play (power forward)”, said Clifford, who was an assistant coach with the Magic.
Lin’s Christian faith plays a huge role in his life.

Since Curry left the school, Davidson has made three trips to the NCAA tournament in the last five seasons (Davidson had 6 in the previous 35 years), as Curry’s impressive performance in the 2008 NCAA tournament allowed the University to expand its recruitment for basketball. Despite being defending champions they came into the season with a chip on their shoulder as some critics said they got lucky with injuries (both their own and their opponents) and that their championship was a fluke.
Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers implied the Warriors were lucky they didn’t have to face his team or the Spurs in the playoffs last season. During the third quarter, Curry took charge with 28 points. Bryant played almost 32 minutes and scored 20 points on 7-of-26 shooting.
“It is surprising to me because the league has been around a very long time and nobody has done what we are doing”.
Playing against the Warriors is a tricky prospect.

The 37-year-old Bryant scored 18 points in the first half and 12 in the fourth quarter for the Lakers. Throughout a game, Curry is constantly moving without the ball and the best way for his team get him the ball is setting good screens so he can get open looks. The Warriors remain the only undefeated team in the league at 20-0.
