OAKLAND, Calif.
Patrick
Chung Jersey . -- Maybe it was Andre Iguodalas presence in the starting
lineup. Maybe it was coach Mark Jackson publicly challenging his players. Or
maybe it was simply facing an undermanned opponent at home. Whatever the reason,
the Golden State Warriors finally started to look like the team that started off
so strong this season. Stephen Curry had 28 points and 12 assists, David Lee
added 21 points and 17 rebounds and the Warriors beat the short-handed New
Orleans Pelicans 104-93 on Tuesday night in Iguodalas long-awaited return. "Hes
a guy that makes life so much easier for everybody on the floor," Jackson said.
"His ability to make plays, his ability to read and react, we missed him. Glad
to have him back. And then there was a carryover effect." Iguodala finished with
two points and two assists in 17 minutes after missing the previous 12 games
with a left hamstring injury. The Warriors led by 10 points in the first
quarter, 18 at halftime and 26 late in the third quarter. Golden State, which is
9-2 with its regular starters in the lineup, never trailed. "I felt good. I got
tired of watching," said Iguodala, who was 1-for-4 shooting. "You get a new
appreciation for the game, especially seeing your brothers struggle. I thought
it was a great game by everyone." The Warriors outshot the Pelicans 45.1 to 37.5
per cent and outrebounded them 58 to 44 to control the game -- for the most part
-- from start to finish. New Orleans made a brief run in the fourth quarter
against Golden States backups before the starters returned and restored order.
The Pelicans played without injured starters Anthony Davis (broken left hand)
and Tyreke Evans (sprained left ankle). Ryan Anderson had 21 points and six
rebounds and Jason Smith scored 12 for New Orleans, which has lost its first two
games of a five-game trip. "Just a bad game from the start," Pelicans coach
Monty Williams said. The Warriors went 5-7 after Iguodala injured his hamstring
Nov. 22, losing three of their last four games. They had especially struggled on
defence, though the problems extended beyond Iguodalas absence. Jackson even
called out his players for a lack of effort after a loss at Phoenix on Sunday,
saying "I am finding that the guys in the suit and tie want it more than the
guys in uniform." After a string of slow starts during its recent slide, Golden
State opened the game against New Orleans with the kind of heart and hustle
Jackson has wanted from his team. The Warriors dominated at both ends of the
floor in a near-flawless first quarter. About the only blemish in the period
came when Harrison Barnes suffered a left eye lid abrasion and was poked in the
eye inadvertently by Lou Amundson going for a rebound. He returned a few minutes
later. The Pelicans played mostly on the perimeter and got nothing going
offensively. The misses gave the Warriors several fast-break opportunities, and
they took advantage of them throughout. Iguodala punctuated the fast start when
he finished an alley-oop from Curry late in the second quarter for his only
basket, sending most of the announced sellout crowd of 19,596 roaring to its
feet. Two possessions later, Curry followed with a layup through traffic to give
Golden State a 57-39 lead at the half. "Just a tough game. Another one of those
that they just had a little bit more energy than us," Anderson said. The
Warriors went ahead by 26 points late in the third quarter, and Iguodala nearly
pulled off one of the highlights of the season during the run: He dribbled to
his right, faked a behind-the-back pass, bounced the ball through the legs, then
cuffed it with his right hand and tried to dunk over Smith -- but missed off the
back iron. Klay Thompson scored 16 points and Andrew Bogut added eight points
and 10 rebounds for the Warriors. The only rally New Orleans put together came
against the bottom of the Warriors bench. The Pelicans sliced Golden States lead
to 93-80 with 6:02 remaining before Jackson put all of his starters except
Iguodala back in to regain control. "This team was challenged by our coach," Lee
said, "and we knew this we as a game we needed to have." NOTES: Golden State has
won six straight against New Orleans. ... Curry has scored 20 points or more in
a career-best 11 straight games. ... New Orleans is 3-4 since Davis broke his
hand Dec. 1.

Denvers win Sunday at Sacramento.HALIFAX -- Canadas next tie in the Davis Cup
against Colombia will be held on an indoor hard court in Halifax in September.
The tennis matches between the two countries take place at the Halifax Metro
Centre from Sept. 12-14. The last time a Davis Cup tie was held in Halifax was
in 1998 when Canada defeated Mexico 3-2 in the first round of Americas Zone
Group I. The Nova Scotia government and the city have both provided Tennis
Canada with $65,000 in grants to bring the event to Halifax. The matches in
September mark the first time a professional tennis event will be played at the
MMetro Centre, which will have about 4,500 seats plus limited premium box
seating available for the tie.

in February against Japan in Tokyo, losing 4-1 as two of its top singles
players, Milos Raonic and Vasek Pospisil, were injured. Tennis Canada says the
four Davis Cup team members to face Colombia will be selected at a later date.
Canada must win in September to remain in the World Group for 2015. A loss would
relegate Canada back to Americas Zone Group I for next year where they have not
played since 2011.
