Win against Mavericks a turning point for Warriors?

Is it time to break out the "We Believe" T-shirts again? Holy cow. What a great game. If you're a Warriors fan, you better hope you have that game on your DVR, because you won't want to delete it. You never want to overstate one win, but this could be [...]

Monta Ellis outplays Brandon Roy in Warriors’ impressive win

The Warriors completely dismantled the Portland Trail Blazers Friday night, 108-94 (box score, recap), in the most impressive performance by Golden State this year.

A feel-good finish to road trip

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 [...]
