Golden State Warriors: Stephen Curry Tweets "Ankle Will Be Fine"

Stephen Curry hurt his ankle again last night in a preseason game that saw him miss the second half.

Curry dove for a ball amid a scrum vs. Portland and had his ankle rolled over by one of the players involved. However, Curry tweeted that he is doing fine.

Ankle will be fine. Freak play. But Good win tonight...now on the way to LA.

He played in only 26 games last season due to ankle injuries, but Curry and the Warriors have guaranteed that both ankles are 100 percent healthy heading into the season.

Residents Against Warriors' San Francisco Arena Plans, Project's Cost Revealed, etc.

A big week for the Golden State Warriors' proposed San Francisco arena was followed by some expected backlash.


The San Francisco Chronicle's John Cote and John Wildermuth are reporting the residents in the area near the proposed location of Piers 30 and 32 are not happy with the prospects of having to put up with the construction, as well as the even busier streets of San Francisco once the arena is completed in 2017.

The plans revealed earlier this week include a waterfront arena holding 17,500 people, and a 650-space raised parking garage on the land.

The San Francisco Examiner's Mike Billings is also reporting there is a ballpark price for the entirety of the San Francisco arena project.

According to Billings, the arena is still intended to be privately funded, with the entire cost running between $875 million to $975 million.

In comparison, the Dallas Cowboys' monstrosity of a stadium ran near $1.3 billion, and the 49ers' stadium plans in Santa Clara will run them around $1.2 billion.

With the blueprints for the San Francisco 49ers' new stadium in Santa Clara came the promise of a Super Bowl at the location in the near future.

Sure enough, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced on Tuesday that San Francisco was a finalist for Super Bowl 50 in 2016.


They will be going up against South Florida, a decision that will be made at the NFL's Spring meetings in May 2013.

“We are excited to bid for the first Super Bowl in the Bay Area since January of 1985," 49ers CEO Jed York said in a statement. "Nothing brings a region together like a Super Bowl. Now we have to work together to show the new stadium in Santa Clara will put on a great show.”

If the new Santa Clara stadium is not selected, they will become a finalist for Super Bowl 51 in 2017, where they will go up against Houston.

The new Santa Clara stadium is scheduled to be completed by the 2014 NFL season.
