ByAnthonySlater BayAreaNewsGroup ATLANTA Undernormal,non-in- jury adverse circumstances, An- dre Iguodala may have rested during Monday night's game in Atlanta. A rough portion of the schedule lies ahead, a rough por- tion is in the immediate rear- view. The playoffs are nearing. But with Kevin Durant down, these are no longer normal cir- cumstances for Iguodala. Instead of cranking down, he's cranking up. Instead of resting against the Hawks, he logged a team-high 35 minutes. And instead of playing a secondary role, Iguodala was the night's star, flipping back the clock in the Warriors' impressive 119-111 win over the Hawks. "He's still got it," Steve Kerr said. "I told him during the game, he looks like he's 25 (years old) out there." Stephen Curry, like every other game on this road trip, started cold, missing his first three shots. Klay Thompson bumbled through a scoreless first half, picking up three fouls in 11 minutes. The Hawks, led by Dennis Schroder's 19 first quarter points, came out explosive, scoring 42 in the first quarter and jolting up by 17. Draymond Green, like Thomp- son, picked up his third foul early in the second quarter. Both joined Curry, in his normal rest spot, on the bench. For one of the ex- tremely rare times this season, the Warriors didn't have any of WARRIORS ROLEPLAYERSRISE IN WIN OVER HAWKS Iguodalaleadschargeoffbenchwith24points DAVIDGOLDMAN—THEASSOCIATEDPRESS Atlanta Hawks' Ersan Ilyasova, right, of Turkey, dribbles against Golden State Warriors' Andre Iguodala in the first quarter of an NBA basketball game in Atlanta, Monday.

A person familiar with the Raiders' plans said the team pre- sented the new proposal with fi- nancing backed by Bank of Amer- ica to the NFL's stadium and fi- nance committees. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the plan was not made public. The Raiders had been seeking a new partner for the proposed $1.9 billion, 65,000-seat domed sta- dium after casino magnate Shel- don Adelson withdrew a $650 mil- lion pledge last month. The state of Nevada has com- mitted $750 million to the project, while the Raiders and NFL would pay the remaining $500 million if three-quarters of the league's owners approve a move. A vote could come at the owners meet- ings later this month. Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf also made a presentation to the committees on Monday in hopes of persuading owners to prevent the Raiders from moving. Schaaf offered no new plans to satisfy concerns from the league about a proposed new stadium near the site of the Coliseum, the person said. The Raiders have been looking for a new stadium for years as they seek to move out of the outdated Coliseum, which is the only cur- rent stadium used by an NFL and Major League Baseball team and is unable to generate the revenue for the team the way more modern stadiums around the league can. The Raiders applied to move to the Los Angeles area last year, but the league turned that request in favor of the Rams moving from St. Louis. The Chargers will join the Rams in the Los Angeles area this season and the teams will share a stadium in Inglewood, which is expected to open in 2019. That left the Raiders looking for another option, which became Las Vegas when the state of Ne- vada voted last fall to commit the money to the project. Even if a move is approved later this month, the stadium is not ex- pected to be built before 2020. The Raiders have options to play at the Coliseum for two more years, but could need to find a temporary home in 2019 if they move. NFL Raiders find financial partner for Las Vegas DAILY NEWS FILE PHOTO Corning Cardinals coach Kurt Wilkins takes a self portrait with the team a er winning the Division 4title Friday at Butte College. By Chip Thompson editor@redbluffdailynews.com @editorchip on Twitter CORNING Coming off a 20-point win Friday over the Pierce Bears to take the divi- sion title, the Corning Cardi- nals have been named the No. 6 seed, out of 16 teams, in the Northern Section of the CIF State Boys Basketball Champi- onship for Division IV. The Cardinals, who went to 29-0 with Friday's win, will host the Ripon Indians (24-6 overall, 11-1 league) at 7 p.m. Wednesday. The Indians are the No. 11 seed. The Indians' leading scorers are seniors Noah Hernandez, who is averaging 19.3 points per game; Aaron Paschini, av- eraging 15.1; and Cole Stevens, averaging 12.7. Hernanzez, a 6-foot guard, scored 38 in a game Feb. 9 against Riverbank and followed it up with 30 against Ripon Christian the next night, but has been held to fewer than 15 in his last three starts.
