There's really no shame in this loss. None at all. Did the Warriors play a perfect game? No. But on the fourth and fifth games of a grueling five-game, seven-day Eastern road trip, the Warriors played the Cavaliers and Celtics tough. In the first half against the Celtics, Golden State [...]
At the start of the season, I really thought this Warriors team could play close to .500 for the season and contend for the final playoff spot in the West. I think it's safe to say I was completely wrong. After trading Stephen Jackson, and with rumors that Monta Ellis [...]
The Warriors, in the first game after the Stephen Jackson trade, played well in defeat, getting to within three points late in a close game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Unfortunately, too many turnovers and missed shots down the stretch doomed the Warriors, who lost 114-108, in Cleveland. If Golden State [...]
I don't know how you can look at today's trade and not call it a winner for the Warriors. When you consider that Stephen Jackson had 1) demanded a trade months ago, 2) never backed off that trade demand, 3) demonstrated enough erratic behavior to force the Warriors hand in [...]
I'm sorry about the lack of analysis of Friday night's game. I've had a million other things going on and haven't been able to get to it. It's unfortunate, too, because there is a fair amount worth mentioning from the Warriors' win against the Knicks. Like ... Why did Anthony [...]
Often, when a team goes on the road, it’s a chance for players to band together, for a team to develop some chemistry. But for a dysfunctional squad like the Warriors, the lonely road has only served to intensify the team's discord. Yesterday, Monta Ellis blew up at coach Don [...]
It seems clear there’s no turning back now. The Warriors, for the sake of their young talent, for the sake of their franchise, must trade Stephen Jackson. Immediately. A take-the-highest-bid fire sale won’t bring back the kind of talent the Warriors or their fans would probably like to see in […]
Anthony Randolph had his best game of the season Monday night in the Warriors' 146-105 win against the Timberwolves (check out the incredible photo to the right). I don't think it was a breakout game, in that I don't think we'll suddenly see consistent performances like this from Randolph. He [...]
The Warriors showed they still have something left to prove tonight. Eight players in double figures. Three players scored 20 or more points (including a season high 31 from Kelenna Azubuike). The Warriors shot the ball like they were possessed (57.1 percent from the field, 52.2 from distance, 78.9 from [...]
In the Warriors' 120-107 loss to the Kings on Sunday night, it was rebounding, free throws and dribble penetration that killed any chance the Warriors had of picking up their second win of the season. Looking at the box score from the game, the Warriors did some things well. They [...]
