Coach Don Nelson had a special request for Stephen Curry."He told me he needs me to make plays," Curry said. What his aggressiveness has done is prevent guard Monta Ellis from always initiating the offense and creating against a set defense. It also forces the defense to respect Curry, resulting in less help opponents can provide on Ellis and forward Corey Maggette. Considering his struggles on defense, especially against bigger guards who post him up, Curry's offensive production is that much more important to the Warriors."The last two games," Curry said, "I tried to get in the middle and tried to make plays, dishing to the wings and get guys shots. The more aggressive I am, I think the more plays I'll be able to make and help my team instead of being that fifth man out there just running around in the lane and not being involved in the offense."
