OPEN THREAD: Game #33 - Warriors at Hornets
Warriors (W-L): 16-16
Hornets (W-L): 12-18
Time: 5:00PM PST tip off
With the new year comes a new Warriors. Currently sitting at .500, now is the time for us to take advantage of our current string of mild opponents and establish ourselves as contenders.
Despite J-Rich being out, we have no fear. We'll be looking for Baron to pick up the load like he has done so much in the past without Richardson around. Worst comes to worst, Kelenna Azubuike will be there to befuddle the Hornets by asking them to pronounce his name.
Look for loyal reader Zorgon tonight and be sure to check out his preview for tonight's game.
Vegas Odds: Golden State favored by 5 points.
GSoM Prediction: The Warriors run away with this one and win by 13.
LET'S DO THIS WARRIORS!!!
UPDATE: Live Box Score from Yahoo!
UPDATE 2:
Stay tuned for the Recap!

Seriously, we shouldn't even begin to complain about the Warrior injuries. These guys have been hit hard.

Nets (W-L): 12-18
But we're playing the Hornets. Unless the Nets part is from horNETS. Just a heads up.

Give Pietrus some ice, and tell him to stop calling himself sexy so this type of thing won't be karma-like.

Indeed
Nelson said Diogu and Mike need to grow up in that regard.
omg mike does need to grow
BUT
even with both not taking their blame, why does dun play and not ike. ike deserves to play just as much as dun
by bayareawarriors on Jan 2, 2007 7:17 PM PST up reply actions
Geez!
Dunleavy, on the other hand, knows where to be, where to go, and where to keep his arms (since he deflects more balls on D than any other W). And who hit the big three last night after the W's had gone stone cold throughout the fourth quarter (on their traditional three-point missing spree)? And who's always in at crunch time (hint: not Ike).
If you don't like Dun's style, fine. He's not a star, he's not particularly athletic. But he knows the game, plays it well, and above all focuses on TEAM play -- something this squad sorely needs.

Nellie pissed at Dun
http://www.nba.com/games/20061230/GSWSAC/recap.html
I didn't see anything major on TV, but that's what the AP recap said.
Again, I don't think Dunleavy or Ike are cancers by any stretch, but neither are prefect. Dunleavy does yell at his mistakes and doesn't have the best body language out there when HE makes mistakes. I have yet to hear or see the guy take responsibility when he makes mistakes or plays poorly. This is the same guy who at the beginning of the season said his previous coaches flat out didn't use him properly. That's some big talk from a role player.
Right now, I'd be extremely hesistant to say that either Dun or Ike are the consumate team players. That just isn't true. Nellie doesn't seem to be too happy with either in his interviews with the Razor and Mr. T on KNBR.
Ike's still young and is on a rookie deal, so if he doesn't shape up it's really not that big of a deal. He's easy to trade, but I think he has a lot to offer this squad. He might have the best mid-range jump shot on this team.
Dunleavy is a 5th year player who Nellie named a captain of this squad and is next to impossible to trade with that horrendous offer Mullin and Higgins gave him. The Warriors are going to be screwed if Dunleavy doesn't step up big time.
Let's hope both their attitudes and play improves.

correction
by Atma Brother ONE on Jan 3, 2007 10:45 AM PST up reply actions
If you don't like Dun's style,
We could find a million guys (and with better personality) to fill his spot, for the money he's getting we should expect lots more.
Zorgon has foyle, John has Dun, maybe I should become the murphy freak to round out the asylum?

whos gonna get warrior wonder?....

final score?
by mydedgerbil555 on Jan 2, 2007 7:21 PM PST reply actions
Yahoo boxscore is funny
M. Ellis DNP - Right Shoulder Cont
Ok makes sense, then:
J. Richardson DNP - Jason Richardson
The man has his an injury named after himself!
What?
As for Asubuike or whatever, I'm nicknaming him K-Bu. I refuse to call him anything else cuz it just gives me a headache.

If you take a look out of your windows, you can now see Dallas, TX. Quite the site, no?

JEEEEEEEEEEZ
there also should on the front page
It's a good idea
MVP? Coach of the year? Most improved player? Rookie of the year? Defensive player of the year?
Man, who cares about those awards. It's all about the WARRIOR WONDER!
Word.
by Atma Brother ONE on Jan 2, 2007 8:15 PM PST up reply actions
yea that was me that mentioned ot before too
Bouncing off some ideas
I think you asked before if we could list the Warrior Wonder in the schedule along the right column. It's a good idea that makes a lot of sense, but I'm worried it will almost double the size of that huge block of text and make things look ugly.
Thanks for being patient as we think through a good design.
Also, anyone think a GSoM special edition "Warrior Wonder" TShirt would be hot? Don't sleep!
