PrintDetroit Pistons at Golden State Warriors, Nov 13, 2008 7:30 PM PST
I'm NEVER going back to the Finals? Then why did I go to the Pistons?!?!
Warriors (W-L): 3-5
Pistons (W-L): 5-2
Time: 7:30 PM PST
TV: TNT
Radio: KNBR 680
The Pistons made a blockbuster trade and...they lose two straight. But hey, Iverson got his first win as a Piston by destroying the dominating Kings. If we couldn't beat them, they have to be good, right? ...Right?
Here's what I see for this game - ENERGY. Although Tuesday's victory against the Wolves wasn't a pretty one, a win is a win, and I think that brought some confidence in the young'ns. It was amazing watching Morrow drain those two three's and I can forsee this man taking Al's role as a 3 point specialist.
A.I. and crew have a deep team, they look better on paper, but they got nothin' on us!
As one of the Warrior Girls said to me at the game on Tuesday - WE STILL BELIEVE!
Ok, that didn't really happen...but I can pretend right?
R Dizzle's Predictions
- Warriors LOSE by 1(just for you saintdee)
- We trade Al Harrington at the beginning of the game for the Rock Band 2 Special Edition Bundle. The Halftime show is Rob Kurz singing "Eye of the Tiger" with Morrow on the lead guitar, DeMarcus Nelson on bass, and Turiaf on the drums. The crowd goes wild and stays to see if there's an encore after the game.
- Andris gets another double-double...sigh. How bout a triple-double already? I see ya taking the ball up Andris! 12 ASSISTS!!
- Ron Ron gets hyphy on the sidelines as Morrow drains four 3's
- I get knocked out by my buddy and miss the 4th quarter cause I keep yelling "YOU GOT THE ANSWER, BUT WHAT'S THE QUESTION?"
- Jack rests on the bench for 3 minutes.
- Kwame Brown scores 20 points. You don't believe me now...but just wait.
- Monta Ellis scores 30...oh wait, my bad. Scratch that one.
HIT THE JUMP FOR A CLASSIC VID!
Never gets old.

I still believe in the Warrior Girls, they can play the whole 48 minutes in their cute little uni’s as far as I’m concerned.

… since this thread has already been blessed with mild pessimism. I might go for the optimism approach this time. maybe.
what in the world?
Did I just step into an ongline Twilight Zone? You go with an optimistic approach? No wayyy.
LOL!
Looks like Obama is slowly changing the world. Pwah!
Go Warriors still.

Glad to see R.Dizzle research the rosters this time. The RJ picture to preview the Nets game is still with me. ;)
I pray i never have to use a gun again...
...unless i'm at a strip club parking lot...
...and somebody tries to run me over with their car...
...But how often does that happen??
"How the hell can I make my teammates better by practice? "
Probably the single smartest thing ever said about basketball. Too bad those reporters don’t get it. Iverson is beyond cool, right up there with Cap’n.Jax

gonna be demarcus nelson starting at the 1 tonight
I'm gonna be at the game!
I’ll be sitting courtside, hopefully I can get hyphy over there since the people that usually sit there don’t. haha.
One thing though, is it still going to be on TNT? I checked the schedule on my tv and it said that the 2nd game on TNT will be a Bulls game. Did the network change the games they were supposed to televise I remember the Warriors were supposed to open up the season last year on national television but it got replaced when the league found out that Jackson got suspended for the first 7 games.
by Five Ten Entertainment on Nov 12, 2008 9:51 PM PST reply actions
that
doesnt make any sense.. the league suspended jackson so how would they not know he was suspended?
Not really sure.
I think the game schedule and the tv schedule were made before Jackson got suspended. The Warriors were supposed to open up the season on national tv at home against the Jazz, but then Jax got suspended and I guess the league decided to give the tv time to a different game. Or maybe the NBA changed the tv schedule for a different reason.

I hope so
TNT’s own website is advertising a double header of LeBron and Iverson, so more than likely we’re going to be on for tomorrow night.
don't forget
It’s the dubs’ way to play hard against hard opponents and then lose (or come close to losing) against garbage teams (ala Memphis).
Just kidding. I really do hope the young guns gained confidence last night. We’re gonna need ’em all tomorrow so that we can answer The Answer.
Did I just say that? Gods I’m corny.
yeah i know
The Warriors tend to play down to their ‘bad’ opponents, and rise to the occasion against the elites. Also it seems like the Warriors do really good on national televised games, sometimes. It’s like the fans are more crazy when they know that it’s on national television. You guys remember that Warriors/Lakers game last December??
It also would be great to have Corey and Al playing. I think non-Warriors fans tend to forget that the Warriors have been playing without Maggette, Harrington, and Ellis. But, if Corey doesn’t play then I hope Anthony Randolph can impress the entire NBA with his skills. I wanna see that Randolph, Wright, Biedrins line-up again; the NBA hasn’t really seen the Warriors play “tall ball” on national tv yet. We’re like the 2nd tallest team in the NBA.

"the young and the tallest" - now on national TV
And as others have mentioned – they go for the block and then miss the def rebound, which hurts us.
You guys remember that Warriors/Lakers game last December??
Was that the one where they beat us by like 40 points?

Given that those three play the same position, I think those two requests cannot be satisfied together. Though if he comes back tonight, Maggs certainly won’t play 35-40 minutes so he won’t take ALL of the minutes away from those two.

demarcus neslon will guard AI
but the matchup i really want to see is going to be Anthony Randolph Vs. Tayshaun Prince
I see randolph developing into a player such as prince cuz of their similar body types so it’ll be fun to watch them match up against each other
I predict a Ron-Ron/A.I. dance-rap showdown
and then Mario Lopez comes out of nowhere and tells A.I., “his banner must come down.”

great, another basketball novice
what you said is true, for individual skills.
(though playing against someone of AI’s caliber in practice would benefit those who were defending him)
what you said is false, for team play.
organized bball isn’t as simple as that stuff you do with your friends. a story my brother told me a long time ago: when my brother was in HS, he had a new coach who’d been the coach at a jr high. my brother’s team laughed when this new coach tried to install sets and scrimmaged instead. the next day the coach had the kid’s who played at the jr high come in. my brother’s team again laughed watching these unathletic kids warm up for the scrimmage. once the game started these organized 8th-9th graders promptly started to pick apart the disorganized, athletic HS team. i think of this story every time i see the Olympics.
but i guess you don’t believe in “play execution” or “timing” and whatnot… AI doesn’t understand that although you don’t make individual players better through practice, you do make your team better by improving your team’s offensive and defensive execution.

Well said.
The Skeptic, bless his soul, tends to confuse charisma and productivity.
No one can deny Iverson’s charm: he’s got a cute face, a winning personality, and a style of play that’s a joy to watch. At the same time, he’s always been highly overrated in terms of his contribution to winning (ask Berri, or JAE, or anyone else with a grasp of both hoops and statistics). And while the famous “practice” speech gets a straight A for style and delivery, the substance of it — that practice is superfluous — is pretty lame.

But that wasn’t the substance of it. The substance was the media was asking him about missing one practice instead of asking him why the team was crappy . He was trying to make them understand that the focus was in the wrong spot. ! The line “Make them better? How the hell can I make them better” was one of the most profound basketball statements ever. Too bad no one got it.

Nah.
It was a typical dumb, insulting sportsjournalist question, and — appropriately — a dumb, repetitive, defensive, mostly content-free answer. Any “profundity” comes entirely from your admiration of AI’s winning personality and game. If George Bush or Andris Biedrins had the exact same answer, you’d (rightly) find it boring and insipid.

Really
I think the only people who can say if he contributed to winning are his teammates. No stats can prove that. I’m pretty sure most of (if not all) his teammates would say that he was a large part of their winning.

The question
Isn’t “if” he contributes to winning, but “how much?”
The answer (!) is “less than you — or his teammates — probably think.”

by warriorfan4life on Nov 13, 2008 12:03 AM PST reply actions
Speaking of brawls, did anybody see...
the Matt Barnes induced brawl last night? Cheap shot by Barnes on Skip2 – when Rafer retaliated, Nash, who hadn’t seen the Barnes shot, came to Barnes’ defense and all hell broke loose until Shaq took the whole pile of players (which included Yao, TMac, and a ref) and sent them to the ground. I think Barnes will probably get a suspension for being the instigator of the whole thing.

From wiki, it was about his relationship with coach Larry Brown
The two frequently clashed, including after the 76ers were defeated in the first round of the 2002 NBA Playoffs, when Brown criticized Iverson for missing team practices and Iverson responded by saying, “We’re sitting here, and I’m supposed to be the franchise player, and we’re talking about practice,”and went on a rant that included the word “practice” 25 times.

Look we don’t mind you posting links to your blog – the web is all about cross traffic promotion – but please do it as NinerWarrior does it. He posts fanshots to his recaps with a short blurb. He doesn’t just post a straight link to his site. He posts a link when he has something insightful to point to. People will visit your site if you put up quality stuff on a consistent basis – having a single relevant post with a single paragraph does not qualify.

don't want him to
his style of play wouldn’t be affective if he was big and bulky
He's 240 at age 22
And his shoulders are pretty narrow. I agree, I think he’s pretty much his ideal playing weight. More tone, maybe. More bulk, no way.

well, i think yao is going to get the fan’s vote, so he’ll start. but from there, who else will the coaches/players pick that would be comp for andris?
should be no one
that’s y i said if he doesn’t make it there should be a riot. i don’t think the coaches necessarily hafta pick another center tho (i.e. they could pick 7 guards if they wanted)
ahh yes
i knew there had to be at least one more
not as much as bynum
i think anyone with half a brain would put in biedrins over chandler. hopefully they’ll remember that chandler was nothing w/o paul

He has shown in college and pre season he is a pure shooter

Hopefully having mags in full health will be the difference
Who can feel our young ones taking over the game against the clips?
watson is good
hes just very young and inexperienced…causing all of the turnovers and what not.
honestly, i think jack cost us the game tonight though. i love the guy, but he had poor shot selection and poor ball movement…it aint a 1-on-1 game. it was sickening watching jack try and be the hero of the game instead of getting his teammates involved. 6-20 is not very good and he should realize that hes having an off night instead of making it worse for the team. our TO’s are pretty bad too. we just all have to realize we have a very young team that is going to make mistakes in clutch time opposed to the very experienced pistons.
Don't blame Jax
Yeah he didn’t shoot well but no one really did. He had a pretty good day… Passed alot, got Beans involved, didn’t have silly turnovers, but in the end, the Pistons executed and the Warriors didn’t at all. They didn’t get in the paint and that hurt them. And give Watson credit, he fought with AI. Of course AI won because I mean, he’s AI, but Watson held it down for a 2nd year player out the D-League so calm down on that.

by the evil monkey on Nov 13, 2008 11:46 PM PST up reply actions
Tough loss. Not a bad performance, but certainly a tough loss.
Biedrins was very good, and Wright was GREAT in limited minutes. Off the top of my head, I can’t remember a bad stretch all year where they’ve been in together. Nellie needs to recognize and let those two team up for the majority of the game. Ronny was also good in his twelve minutes. Our bigs are not the problem.
The beginning of the third quarter was like a Corey Maggette audition tape: free throws, free throws, free throws, with a midrange jumper or two mixed in. Considering this was his first game back from a hamstring issue, he looked just fine. ’Buike’s touch is still AWOL, but he’s tough enough so that he’s still an okay guy to have out there without it. Morrow contributed in his brief runs, sneaking underneath for a couple rebounds. Our swingmen are not the problem.
Our point guards… yeah, they’re a problem. CJ didn’t have a horrible overall game — he scored well and showed a lot of moxie — but he was certainly an ineffective point guard. And while neither Marcus nor DeMarcus got enough burn for a fair evaluation, they sure both looked clueless out there. Our point guard situation is unacceptably bad. Happily, that’s a situation that will be addressed by Monta’s return. It’s by no means a given that Monta will be a good point guard, but he’ll be a good player we can slot there. That might be enough.
That leaves… Stephen Jackson.
Look, I love Jack. Anybody who likes this team loves Jack. But this iron man stuff simply isn’t working. Yes, he and Biedrins worked the pick-and-roll brilliantly… yes, he smartly took advantage of mismatches early on… yes, he was important defensively, as always. He did not have a very good game, and he did an awful second half, because the guy is obviously gassed.
I know everyone says that he’s the whole team right now, but I’m not actually under the impression that he is. Jack is a marvelously mixed bag — for every stretch where he anchors the defense and hits throat-cutting threes, there’s a stretch where he listlessly tosses up jumpers in traffic and tries passes he can’t pull off. And thanks to the absurd number of minutes he’s logging, the listless stretches are growing by the week.
Jack is good, but he is not good enough to be the alpha and omega of an NBA team, and the Warriors should stop acting like he is. The best thing Nellie could do would be to take 15 of Jack’s minutes per game and hand them to Brandan Wright — it’d help our rebounding, our scoring efficiency, and possibly our defense. If our ball-handling gets even worse, so be it… we’re going to be dysfunctional in that department till Monta returns anyway (and possibly still even then, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it).
This is not a terrible team… it’s a team that will win some games. But it’ll have an easier time doing that when Nellie remembers that Stephen Jackson is Stephen Jackson, not Lebron James.

Agree but
Jack is everything. Everyone in the league knows this and so do the Warriors. Jack is the Warriors, Just like the Warriors, he has great stretches and he has bad stretches as well. Tonight he didn’t miss shots by much until the end of the game when they needed to be forced but he is only the person who will take the shot right now. Jack did pass well & played good D tonight so all we can knock Jack on tonight was his shots. Everyone looks to Jack to make the shot so in his mind (& Nellie & The Team), he is the Alpha and Omega because if there is one shot to be taken, the Warriors will call on Captain Jack. Wright did well but he still needs work on defense. Tayshaun & Amir posted him up a few times and was successful so he still has work to do in that department.
But the moral of the story is, Nellie treats Stephen Jackson like LeBron James is because, well he is LeBron James (As in he is the soul of the team, not Skillswise).
"Get Er Dun!"
But Jack is “the only guy who will take the shot right now” only because it’s been decided he’s the only guy who will take the shot right now. Maggette’s a top-ten scorer in this league, a guy who drives fearlessly over and over… you really think he’s unwilling to take a key shot? Does Azubuike seem timid about that? Even a guy like Watson, flaws and all, is clearly willing to take key shots.
I’m not saying Jackson shouldn’t be an option late… I’m not even saying he shouldn’t be the first option, in this Monta-less phase. But the idea that he’s the only go-to guy we have is overblown. I’d rather have the ball in Maggette’s hands late.
i'm not even sure it's Jackson's minutes (his shot was fine against Minny)
i just think this is what you get from Jack no matter how many minutes he plays. first, i don’t think he’s that good of a shooter. he’s pretty much a streak shooter who has spent his entire career hovering in the high 30s, low 40s and is known to be streaky. so if he hits 2-3 in a row, somewhere along the lines there’s likely going to be a stretch where he misses 3 or 4 in a row.
and he’s always been TO prone throughout his career even when he was supposedly “fresh” while with Indiana. his TO rate is about what it’s been for his career even though he hasn’t handled the ball this much since 04-05. he’s just careless with the ball sometimes, that’s just who he is.
the stats show this is what you get from jack. he’s a 3rd or 4th banana taking 1st banana shot attempts and handling the ball 1st banana times (per minute he can’t touch TO masters like DWade, Melo, Nash, Gay, Bron – Jackson is actually 26th in the league in TO per minute before today’s 3 to’s in 45 min). 70% of his shots (no matter how many he takes) will always be bad shots.
i think nellie should cut his minutes by at least 6 in the 1st half, but not b/c he’s getting fatigued, but so that other guy’s can get some consistent, if small, minutes. watching jack, he rarely ever jumps…(stand still shot, flat footed block attempts, flat footed rebounds), doesn’t move without the ball (camps at the 3 line, doesn’t go for offensive rebounds unless he drove in to shoot in the 1st place), and on d 50% of the time he just sags and dares the guy to shoot.
the other guy who is playing too much is KAz. right now when he’s on the court with two bigs, it’s like having 3 non-shooters out there… tonight the Pistons pretty much gave him the Telfair treatment. but unlike Minny countering with Foye, KAz stayed in.

You’re absolutely right that Jack is a streak shooter… rest won’t make him deadly accurate all of a sudden. But his FG% is lower than it’s ever been since he became a regular, and his turnovers are higher than ever, too… I’m guessing the fact that he’s leading the league in minutes has something to do with that. Jack will never be an efficient scorer, but that doesn’t mean he has to be this bad.
And yeah, Buike is definitely playing too much, considering his shooting struggles. It could be somewhat mitigated if Maggette can get back the long-distance touch he had last year… Maggette’s been strangely all over the map in terms of shooting threes over his career. If Maggette can space things out even half as much as Harrington does (did, I guess), it’d help the offense. And obviously, if healthy, Monta really will address a lot of the issues with this team… Jack will be better as a second playmaker, and Watson will be totally fine as a backup.
It hasn’t been a particularly pretty nine games, but from a long-term perspective, there’s been far more good than bad from the young ‘uns. Biedrins is becoming a star, Wright looks like he’ll be an above-average player, and Randolph seems a bit of schedule… Azubuike has confirmed his status as a legitimate player, and guys like Marco and Morrow have done enough to warrant another look. Turiaf is a great fit, and Watson looks like he belongs in the league, at the very least. The only flat-out disappointing young player has been Williams, who hasn’t really gotten a shot yet.
It’s a team with a lot of potential, and when healthy, actually a team with an impressive amount of depth. It simply isn’t a very balanced team right now, as you’re not going to succeed in the NBA without a credible point guard. If Monta can hang at the point, with playmaking help from Jack, 2009 is gonna be pretty fun. If he can’t, we’ll have to rejigger, but we have enough attractive pieces to do that.
Let the Barkleys and Kawakamis hate. I see no reason not to be excited about the future of this team.
hm.
though i want Jack to play more in the 36-38 minute range. i still think it’s less about minutes for him right now and more about him being the 1st banana. since 02-03, his TO rate this season is at it’s 3rd best. he’s only shooting about 2-4% worse and i think it’s more attributed to his facing defenses geared to stop him for the 1st time in his career combined with his chucking up more 3’s than ever before.
agree with most of your other thoughts. except, Andris is one of my favorites, but ever since they started going to him in the post, he’s shot under 50% (45.3) and had buttloads of TO’s (3 per game). he’s now down to 52.7 overall and 2.2 TO/g overall – which is double what he had last yr.

3-6
Is kind of rough, but really….
Everyone gives us flack about not being a good team anymore, and, although we have our bad games (think Memphis…and….Memphis….), we’re contending (and beating) some very good teams, with the crippled lineup we have now.
My curiosity is piqued when I try to fathom how our team will play with a healthy Monta and Maggette, as well as our reward in a possible TMNTHarrington trade….
I really think this is a very good team in the future…if not in January, then next year.
im so sick
of us not running any plays except ISO’s. STOP RUNNING THOSE ISO’s AT THE END OF GAMES FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!
we need monta
and fast. It kinda hard watching captain Jack morgan jack up dumbass shots. lol

Rasheed
Got to watch from the 5th row from the floor and never thought I would say this but the best player on the court last night? Rasheed Wallace. And not just for the 2 3pters that killed the Warriors. He does everything so sound. I hate that he’s a total whiner but watching him in person, his game is so sweet. I wonder why he does not demand the ball more because he’s got a pure post game too and its not because he’s not hustling.
CJ needs to pass the ball more. Late in the game he took a couple of awful shots, one a 3 on 2 fast break where he pulled up from the foul line but he make it look too awkward.
Warriors lost because they could not play sound basketball in the last 5 mins. Maggette drops a pass with no one around, CJ gives it up and then cannot get a layup on a 3 on 2; CJ cannot inbound a ball. Awful.
Nothing better than "The City".
