Of all of the Top 25 players on Simmons’ list, Bryant has the worst shooting percentage for a final season – though Bryant has only said that this will be his a year ago “if something doesn’t change”.

Richardson, part of the 2007 “We Believe” team that reached the second round of the playoffs after ending a 12-year drought, has been a big supporter of Green, who took a similar path from Saginaw, Michigan, to Michigan State to Golden State.
“We’re a young team, very hungry and we’ve got great veterans that won’t let us be complacent”, Thompson said.

Bryant said his off night had to do with the team’s overall play – blown defensive coverages, unnamed players not running the offense, etc.
