RECAP: Warriors beat Nuggets: In my Nyquil kind of Dream!

Aa9ba480-a7a0-4a7b-a88b-94f15a17d426_medium

At the buzzer to win the game!!

Oh My God ... did you see that game? Did you see Saturday night's game against the Denver Nuggets. Simply AMAZING. I'm speechless. I'm without speech. To see the Warriors come back from a huge deficit and win the game at the buzzer was CRAZY!! Jackson pouring in a career high 47 points while Randolph exploded for 23 points and 20 rebounds what else could you possibly ask for?

Naw I'm just playing. That was me on Nyquil (which sad to say is a hell of a lot more fun than watching the Warriors these days). We got spanked big time tonight! Jackson and Randolph combined for 11 points. Ya 11! It seems as though the side effects of Nyquil offset the good effects. Let's investigate further shall we:

Doctor's prognosis:

Know that Nyquil hangover? Says it all doesn't it.

 

The Warriors lost 105 to 123 tonight against the Denver Nuggets. I thought we were going to win tonight but then again was sitting on my couch sipping Nyquil looking for a yellow cat I don't even own. That's right.

The thing is ... we're pretty bad. Wait, let me rephrase that because I don't want ya'll to think I'm complaining. We're just not as good as 29 other teams in this league, so it's hard for us to score more points than our opponents. I thought tonight I could deal with my cold and feel rejuvenated when our Warriors put on a show and beat a pretty good team, but alas it was not meant to be. Next time I need to read the side effects of Nyquil before I make outlandish predictions. I think I'll post the effects of tonight's game:

Damn you for tricking me tonight Nyquil but thank you for also tricking me tonight!

Uses:

Use this when traveling to Denver Colorado to play the Nuggets. Temporarily gives boost to following players:

Rob Kurz: Who is this guy and where did he come from? Scoring 20 points and grabbing 7 rebounds in 33 minutes ain't bad. Shooting 7 for 11 and 3 for 3 behind the arc is even better. This guy is good. Not good enough to neither start nor be a backup, but I'm liking Rob more and more. He does very well in garbage time and considering this whole game was garbage, he got the nod to start from Nellie. I'd like to see more of him. If anything, it makes things interesting but I'm willing to see how this plays out.

Jamal Crawford: The only other Warrior who had a decent game. Crawford excelled in getting to the basket and not involving anyone else in the offense. Scoring 25 points and 5 steals, Crawford literally played the entire game to keep it as close as possible (under 20 points).

Side Effects:

Side effects can occur during the game when using Nyquil so please consult your coach before using:

1) Poor Defense: Sedatives to the defense could cause offensive opponents sprinting by you and scoring 123 points easily. Product could also make you think you are guarding 4 opponents when in reality there are 5. Defense could then slow to a snail's pace to allow the Nuggets to have 6 players score in double digits. Third quarter could also improve your chances of trailing by 30 points.

2) Carmelo Anthony: Do NOT use Nyquil if you are playing Carmelo Anthony. This might allow him to score 27 points with 9 rebounds in 30 minutes of play. This drug might also make you just hand him the ball and say "please show me how to score".

603a7e9d-df7c-4725-ad13-9650a5be95ed_medium

How bad is our D? Carmelo can score with his eyes closed!

3) Poor shooting: Nyquil can make you drowsy. So Stephen Jackson next time please realize if you are shooting 1 for 13 ... PASS THE BALL! This could also affect Watson, Randolph, Buke and Morrow who all combined 12 for 39 shooting. Other than our two hot players no Warrior could hit a shot. We even shot two 3 point airballs in the third quarter! I found myself chanting "air ball" with the fans when I realized I was rooting for the other team.

In the end, children, please stay off drugs whether it's legal or not. You don't want to turn into me. Back to back games are never easy when you are down on your luck with a cold. Let's just rest up and get ready for Dwight Howard on Monday and forget the loopy game that may or may not have occurred tonight!

Rob Kurz because his last 2 games are somewhat positive for Warriors to talk about. Let's see it again on Monday big guy!

if things stay the way they are, it's going to be hard to win 30.

they’re on pace for 16 wins at home (16-25).

and (on pace) to win 9 on the road (9-32).

So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

wait

also 25 wins. thats still funny. ugh why the hell we had to go back to pre 06 warriors heck pre 03 warriors at least mussleman got more wins than this. This sucks and now the tickets are still high and they trying to trick people into buying those “cheap tickets” when they are all the way in the top. Pre 06 warriors those prices would get you lower bowl side!

So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

Does anyone know a link where i could watch the game?

I know there are always tons of LIVE streams, but i’ve been on cold drugs tonight as well and I woke up too late for it. Any sites?

I really tempted to just screw it and read the post, but i’m interested on how Rob “white boys can’t dance” Kurz got his 20 pts 7 rebs.

by DubCurse on Dec 14, 2008 1:49 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

Kurz

20 pts 7 rebs.

If he remains constant, he can become that 20-10 guy

I will always be your fan JRich. Good Luck

by chili01 on Dec 14, 2008 1:52 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

20 pts 7 rebs.

  We’re not getting anywhere. Kurz is just a blander version of Murphy.

well

hes much cheaper

hes much cheaper

  this is a liquid market, if he stays as good as murphy he’ll want the same money. Trading proven talent for cheaper rookies has proven to be a recipe for suckiness. We’ve got JRich, TMNT, Pietrus, Barnes and Murphy making valuable contributions to their new teams right now.

So is it safe to dismiss the concerns that Barnes only looked good because of Nellie’s ‘system’?

by jae on Dec 14, 2008 4:48 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Clips

Just beat houston (!) and are 6-17 (we are 7-17). Uhoh.

by mosdl on Dec 14, 2008 9:43 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

Whatever happens this season

we have to at least end on a better record than the Clippers. Don’t want to give Baron and the Clipper fans a reason to gloat at us.

by IQofaWarrior on Dec 14, 2008 8:05 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

and

memphis has a better record than us, and we are tied with the bobcats record! :O

When Maggette missed those consecutive shots in a span of a humming bird’s flap, Crawford simply looked at the bench and said, "Are you serious?"

by gorillas on Dec 15, 2008 12:09 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Niners are loosing too right now

this weekend sucks

I will always be your fan JRich. Good Luck

by chili01 on Dec 14, 2008 10:58 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

i hope we dont win another game

and get the #1 pick and FINALLY draft a superstar this time. THIS TIME BABY. i want to have dwight f’n howard.

by HoLdEmUP on Dec 15, 2008 1:56 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

this will be one of the worst drafts next year

so even to lose every single game won’t help

by YaoButtaMing on Dec 15, 2008 5:56 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

All recaps should be drug induced

Otherwise, I feel terrible about you having to closely watch a warriors game at this point.
