well lets be honest with ourselves...we all know that when it comes down to that long important strech of the season after right before the all-star break the warriors have proven these past couple that they can blow it. BIG TIME. they let games slip by that they should have won (cough cough memphis) and somehow come down with the most unlucky injuries to players who are on fire (nudge nudge baron/richardson)

but enough with those negative thoughts...let me get to my point...

the past 30 something games have been one big roller coaster ride. i mean we always gave the oppsotion a good fight, except for that road strech with san antonio and houston, but aside from that they have been fun to watch. so here are some little observations from the warrios this season...

1) Jim Barnett
dude i love you and your broadcasting but sometimes you might just want to dumb it down for us just a little with your vocabulary. i mean im not saying using sophisticated vocabulary is bad but sometimes i think it destroys the exitement after a great play. for example when you say some thing like "what a great pass and sense of awareness from __(you know what player belongs in there)" and then follow it up by saying "mike (not the frecnh one) is so [big word that i dont know the meaing of]" i kinda get lost...

2) Andris Biedrins and Matt Barnes
i was waiting until biedrins got fouled and go to the line for the first time this season so i could see if any progress was made on his free throws. (i already predicted he would have a BIG impact this season so i wasnt as suprised by the numbers he i sputting up). jim said over the summer he worked on the "one haned" free throw only to have it dink off the front rim, but then about 10 games into the season i stop crying whenver he'd go to the line and hear swishes. As for barnes nellie gave you one shot and you took advantage, your an inspiration to every kid on a team that sits on the bench...both of these guys really fit the expression "Where the %$!* did that come from?

and finally...
3) Baron F'ing Davis
if you're not an all-star this year i give you the right to punch every nba fan across america in the face...i mean u play 47.9 minutes a game and keep us in it all the time and still jason terry and jerry stakhouse are ahead of you in the all star ballots

yea i know it was pretty long but i just needed to get that off my chest...
