OPEN THREAD: Game #64- Warriors @ Blazers- GSoM Pride!

by YaoButtaMing on Mar 11, 2007 9:08 AM PST in Previews

Warriors (W-L): 29-35
Blazers (W-L): 25-36
Time: 6:00pm PST
TV: FSN Bay Area Plus
Radio: KNBR 680

If I have to say "this is a must win situation" one more time then I'm going to puke. But guess what ... this is a must win situation! 1.5 games out of 8th place, sitting right behind the Kings, and tonight we play the Portland Trailblazers (formerly known as the Jail Blazers). We are pretty pathetic on the road and sometimes it makes me wish I could use profanity on this blog. But, if we don't take care of business against poor teams like the Blazers, then we really have no shot at the playoffs. What's even worse, our friends at BlazersEdge and I have a little wager for tonight's game. Nothing serious but if the Warriors lose, I have to write a little poem about how great their blog is. Now since GSoM is probably the greatest ... ahem ... blog in the world, the Blazers Edge fellow really doesn't have to dig too far when he loses the bet. On the other hand, given how poorly the Warriors did on their midterms (the recent 5 game road trip) I'm going to need the help of our GSoM fans! It's going to be difficult to praise BlazersEdge and since my poetry never really worked with the ladies, I'll be shocked if it works here. Here’s a little preview of what I got:

Blazers Edge, Blazers Edge

You’re going to need Pledge

After we’re done

Whipping your bum

That's horrible but I'm not worried. I mean come on, it's the Blazers. Have we lost to them in past 10 years? I'm shocked they have 20 wins already this season. I was positive they would have tanked it by now and earlier I thought they were going to tie for worst record OF ALL TIME. This is going to be easier than our November victory against the Blazers because we have everyone back healthy. I'll even give the blazers blog a 4 point handicap =). Can anyone beat my poem so far?

Now for those of you who won't get the chance to see the game because it's on FSN plus, then you can enjoy the new Korean movie "The Host" by Bong Joon-Ho. This has nothing to do with tonight's game yet a great opportunity to broaden your horizon with foreign films. Plus this movie looks fantastic!

Vegas Odds: Blazers by 1 (as of 10:25 am PST)
Predictions:
*    Warriors by 12.
*    JRich goes off for 30+.
*    Blazers try to convince they are not bad boys anymore so offer flowers to the refs in second quarter.
*    Ellis and Baron make Roy and Jack look like fools.
*    Jackson and Harrington post better numbers the Dunleavy and Murph tonight.

Make sure to give us your predictions in the comments before tip off and post any comments you have during the game right here.

THROW UP THAT W!!

Update: Even the BlazersEdge readers are talkin' trash about us:

2) The Worriers were celebrating not only a win over the Paper Clips, but the new GSoM record for posts in a game day thread: 270 posts. Meanwhile, this place is hitting 300-400 pretty much every time out.

UPDATE 2: Check out Dave's fine preview for the Warriors-Blazers game over at Blazer's Edge

UPDATE 3: Don't get FSN+? No problem! The Warriors game should be on FSN Bay Area after the Sharks game around 7:30pm. Thanks to loyal GSoM community member bradyk2 for pointing this out in a diary

UPDATE 4: Live Box Score from Yahoo!

UPDATE 5: Warriors lose a "close one". 87-106

Stay tuned for the recap...

The best part about sunday.....

Dennny's are playing the Queen's today, all we need to do is secure a win, then no matter what it's a win-win situation for us!

disrespect

I don't think the Blazers are very good either, but if the W's have the same attitude you have for the Blazers, it will be Warriors versus the Lebron-less Cavaliers all over again. We've won the past three games because the addition of Baron has provided the leadership needed to beat teams they SHOULD beat and maintain that intensity for the entire 48 minutes. If they do that, this should be an easy W. But how many times this season have the Warriors had easy wins. If you are a true Warrior fan (not saying you aren't), you'd know you cannot take anything for granted.

This IS a must win. Every game not involving a team with Nash, Duncan, or Nowitski is a MUST win. They must take care of business at home, and they MUST succeed in winnable games on the road. I for one am happy that we are still even talking about playoffs in March. I did give up on this team after their last Laker loss, but Baron has given me new hope. I'm cautiously optimistic, but at least it's optimistic. I've just had my heart broken too many freaking times.

On a side note, this has become a superb sports blog. I wish I was living up in the Bay so I could go to the Wizards game with y'all (livin' in Laker territory; ugh, the humanity!). As an avid A's fan, I'm seeing GSoM living up to those standards of athleticsnation.com. Must be a Oaktown thang. Go GSoM. Go W's in Portland!

how about...

Blazers edge is fallin behind
Cause they can't keep up with Golden State of Mind!
Not to mention, their team really sucks,
They'd probably get beaten by the Oregon Ducks.
Jarret Jack and Brandon Roy always tell us,
They can't keep up with Baron D, and Monta Ellis,
And Zach Randolph, is kind of funny looking,
He's ready to get dunked on, when Kelenna does some Azubooking.
And J-Rich is back, so he'll throw one down,
And all the Blazers fans will get out of town.
The Blazers know we're good, and they know we're trouble too,
So come on Warriors! THROW UP THAT W!

ok wow that really sucked. :)

Warriors by 3

We're on a roll, but don't sleep on the Blazers. Nate McMillian has done an excellent job with this team.

Predictions:

BD + Monta + JR = 90 points
Jamaal Magloire looks slower than Adonal Foyle

by Atma Brother ONE on Mar 11, 2007 11:57 AM PDT reply actions

* BD + Harrington + JR = 90 points

by YaoButtaMing on Mar 11, 2007 12:05 PM PDT up reply actions

Looked into the crystal ball

Got my 100% accurate predictions right here!

B-diddy: 23pts-15 dimes-10- rips, 7/7 FG, 3/3 3pt
J-rich: 37pts-7 boards
Jax: 12pts-8 helpers
Al: 22pts - 9 boards
Dris: 11pts - 16 boards

Bench:25 pts

That's right, 140 points easy!!!!

This one's gonna be a blowout, 140-110.

Then, Dallas is going to win their 17th in a row, setting up a showdown in Oracle Arena, where the Warriors will be the heavy underdogs!

Imagine the bedlam when we end their winning streak, and extend our own!

by Poopoojoe on Mar 11, 2007 12:10 PM PDT reply actions

The Blazers

Shouldn't they be tanking it? Or maybe Blazers and tanking is the same. They have no chance at the playoffs. They have a better chance at Oden than the 8th spot. Just go away silly team.

They were more fun as the JailBlazers. I miss Rasheed. Where's the craziness? I went to Portland for 3 days, and I nearly went crazy. Imagine having to be there for an entire NBA season! You'd do some crazy stuff too.

But seriously, they have a nice core group of players there with Zach Randolph, Brandon Roy, and Jarret Jack. Roy is going to be a stud and if you combine him and Randolph, that's a nice inside-outside combo.

Anyways, Warriors by 6.

Portland

is no gimme. They have alot of good young players. In the past month they've had a home win against Utah and road wins against Washington and the Lakers

More Hardware Coming!

GG

I don't want the dubs to lose this.

Portland may be just as hot as we are right now, but we must win games like this. These are gimme's as far as I'm concerned.

And if bankin 400 post is an issue, I'mma be lighting this open thread up all night during the game.

Warriors by 12:
*J-Rich has his first real posterizing dunk since returning
*The Dubs continue to play their shutdown defense (hopefully tonight it can carry into the fourth, unlike against the clips)
*Zach Randolph has a great night, but Monta and Barnes combine for 30 to offset it.
*The JailBaiters make the mistake of trying to run with us, and end up with 25 turnovers. We also outrebound them.

Playoffs in '07, baby!

Ok we need to break this record for posts. Our blog is the best in the world and we need to get 500 posts tonight just to show those Jailblazer fans.

Seriously!

They're good people, but GSoM gets over 3x the traffic they do and somehow they get way more open thread comments. It's a testament to how well Dave has done with Blazer's Edge.

Still, tonight let's

i always thought quality was better than quantity

and i also could drop some comments about how folks in the bay have a few more things to do than the portlanders up in rain country, but that isn't necessary.

i mean, if they are gonna start talking some shiiii, well, we're gonna bring it!

Best line in the history of all written Poetry. He's ready to get dunked on, when Kelenna does some Azubooking.

Love it buddy, go DUBS!

haha thanks! i hope it catches on. :)

Anyway I predict Warriors by 22. Stepen Jackson leads the team in scoring. Randolph drops high 20s on way too many shots.

Matt Barnes some more clutch 2nd quarter treys.

Josh Powell 12-8.

And of course, Kelenna does some Azubooking on Randolph!

trash talkin

so blazers edge gets 300-400 comments huh? must be because the blazers are such hot garbage that everyone stops watching the game and logs online. over here we have a team that is at least worth watching.

warriors by 12

jr and bd go for a combined 60

by djchuckdeez on Mar 11, 2007 1:05 PM PDT reply actions

Jailblazers

Dave said they need to outrebound us to win. But we've been rebounding like crazy last 3 games, so they have nooooooooo chance.

He also said he'd love to see Randolph get down low and dominate. No chance!!!!!!!!! Did he see what we did to Elton Brand?!?!

Zach Randolph <<<<<<<< Elton Brand

Easy win!

by DubsDominate on Mar 11, 2007 1:23 PM PDT reply actions

You know what's funny ...

7 through 14 are only 5 games apart. Meaning anyone hot for the remainder of the season can make it to 7th or 8th place.

by YaoButtaMing on Mar 11, 2007 1:51 PM PDT reply actions

I predict

Blazers by 6. It's our job to get blown out by teams like this.

by unblinded on Mar 11, 2007 2:48 PM PDT reply actions

Clips and Kings both lose

A win tonight would mean 9th in conference and only a half game out of 8th, with the chance of taking 8th with a win over Dallas.

by Atma Brother ONE on Mar 11, 2007 6:22 PM PDT reply actions

Mavs are overrated

Not they're not a great team, but I'd put them in a group with Suns, Spurs, and Rockets. They're not head-and-shoulders above any of them.

Actually, with Yao back, my dark horse this year is Houston. They have the best 1-2 punch (better than Dallas') and play the toughest D in the West. Games tend to slow down in the playoffs, which should favor them, too.

Finals: Houston over Chicago in 4.

(Yeah, I know, kind of off topic, but I'm trying to pad our post count...)

by Sleepy Freud on Mar 11, 2007 6:28 PM PDT up reply actions

I agree

I think any team among the Mavs, Suns, and Spurs can come out of the West.

I'm with you on Houston too. Just like I've said on the About.com Round Table those guys deserve a ton of credit for not quitting with all those injuries.

it was a pretty neat place in the early 90s

Portland as a hoops town I mean. Everybody seemed to watch the Blazers, and even housewives would yell things like "come on, you know Barkley can't drive to his left!"

They never seemed to recover though from MJ destroying Drexler in the finals that year.

Has anyone seen "The Host" yet?

Our local video store (in Tokyo) was playing it a couple of weeks ago, and it looked awesome. I didn't rent it, unfortunately, 'cos it was in Korean with Japanese subtitles (my Japanese isn't bad, but not good enough to read subtitles whizzing by every two seconds). Then again, maybe with a movie like that maybe you don't need subtitles.

So, new line of discussion for this thread, since the game is looking a litle iffy:

My favorite action/horror movie is...

I'll say John Carpenter's 1982 "The Thing." Not really my favorite, but I just saw it last night for the first time in 20-odd years, and was reminded how great it was.

however, if the choice was to win today and have baron rest for the next game, i'd go for that.

Seven points

We can totally do this.

Meanwhile, we're slacking in the post-count department. Only 120-something at halftime. Try and get it over 150 before the start of the third quarter.

So is this game thread, although Mike D is giving it his all in a losing effort. I think he and Atma are the GSoM leading scorers tonight.

frankly since hes been here ive found no reason to defend him. I think he had one good game where he scored plus 20, but other than that he hasnt been what has been advertised.

I dont expect him to score or rebound a lot, but I do expect him to play smart and make the occasional mid range jumper. He turns the ball over way to much... especially when hes pressured before half court.

Don Nelson
On Baron Davis' Injury
"Only in the NBA do you find out five minutes before the game starts that your best player isn't going to play. You just have to be flexible. That's the NBA. It's just night and day. It's hard to believe one guy could have this much effect on a team, but that looked to be the case.
