Hey Baron … if you guys need motivation for tonight!
Tonight will determine if we will have one last shot at this or if we will have the next 7 months to argue who was more deserving to get into the playoffs. From my standpoint if we really wanted it we should have beaten Denver in our own house last week. I don’t care if Houston lost it for us last night; we are the only ones to blame for our own destiny.
But before I weep in the dark corner of self pity, what do we have here? A shadow of a hope? A chance for history to repeat itself? Weren’t we in the EXACT same position last year when it went down to the very last game of the season? When the Clippers lost an easy one, sending us to the joyride of the playoffs? Coincidence, conspiracy theory, the same ol’warriors trying to make us fans sweat?
Well before I get into the hyperbole of what’s at stake … we have to first beat one of the best teams in the league … the Phoenix Suns in their own house.
Can we do it?
I always say … if there’s a will there’s a way! And we have a way. Do we have the will?
Tonight we have one of our toughest challenges. Denver beat Houston and is half a game ahead of us. So technically speaking the only way for us to make the playoffs is if we beat the Suns tonight and the Sonics on Wednesday, and if Denver loses to the easiest team in the league … the Grizzlies.
This is all shaping up to be yet another excruciatingly exciting game with two of the top offenses battling it out. With Shaq’s presence now making Stoudemire a likely MVP candidate for next year, they will be difficult to stop. Throw in a little Steve Nash and I bet a million or so Warrior fans are ready to throw in the towel. But not I! We can do this! We Believe! We are going to win tonight … and Hollywood couldn’t set this up for a more dramatic Wednesday!
GO WARRIORS!!!
YaoButtaMing's Corner: Tell me the combined total score of tonight's game. If tie, please tell me who has more fouls, Baron or Nash?

Combined score
242. Baron will have more fouls.
Attack Shaq - we can get in a track meet with them if Shaq stays on the bench
Watch the perimeter - the crowd feeds off their 3's (much like ours). gotta watch Bell (killed us last time).
Let Amare do his thing because there's no way we'll stop them.
LET'S GO WARRIORRSSS!!
108-104 WARRIORS WIN!
My prediction, and I hate making them, is 108-104 Warriors!
The Warriors shouldn't play like there is no tomorrow. They shouldn't play like their playoff lives depend on it. They should just play for the joy of playing basketball. The same way they played when the knocked off Dallas in the 2007 playoffs. Play loose and free. Don't think about what's at stake. Just get out there and play for all the Warriors fans watching the game.
GO WARRIORS!!! I STILL BELIEVE!!!
what
happened to the old one?
What you thought that I only played basketball? I AM A Golden State WARRIOR!

this is the same open thread, just had to change the type of post. it's a game thread rather than a regular post. hopefully that will show the boxscore of the game.

Warriors can
And will, win. Even if they miss the playoffs, I hope they win to keep the hope alive for 2 more days.
Combined score of 234.
Nash with 4 fouls, Baron 3.

live chat
i would have liked to see GSoM's new website with a live chat for games. is that too revolutionary?
Score is 116-114, which is 230, with Baron having more fouls
Also, I like Fantasy Junkies Choosing of the FJ Cruiser as his avatar. An awesome looking car, but it can also stand for "Fantasy Junkie Cruiser"!!!!
And honestly, I wouldn't have this playoff chase any other way. I love every gut-wrenching moment. This is WAY more fun than Michael Jordan's Bulls, who just boringly dominated.

then we will fight in the shade.
Damn What I Said
I said to just give up it's over. Well, it might be. But, I'm lifting my head up again. Let's just win tonight, and make Denver have to beat an easy team in Memphis. If playoffs come, FANTASTIC. If not, Gi'me 50, baby. I want the big 5 0 no matter what.
Yup
Fanpost: Carmelo Anthony Arrested!
by Fantasy Junkie on Apr 14, 2008 2:20 PM PDT up reply actions
Yep
They accidentally give his fouls to Pietrus, so officially he ends with 5, but unofficially 9.
Nash does not pick up any fouls since he does not play defense and there's no way he gets an offensive foul.

Yeah, it's too bad
we didn't have this live comment system during the Warriors vs Nuggets game. That would have been insane fun trying to keep up with all the comments flowing in.

I'm still believing
hoping...lol
GO GRIZZ! but first, WARRIORRss come out and play.
more deserving...
how can you argue that the warriors are more deserving than denver when they have lost 3 of 4 to denver?
damn
that video brought back some memories. i know alot of ppl have brought this up but i would still love to get a copy of the series on DVD or something

You can download all the playoff games
from NBA.com for like $2.99/game. They play on Windows Media Player, but are copy protected, so you can only watch them on computers you download them to.
YBM Predictions
combined score, an even 250. and Nash can't keep his hands to himself and gets more fouls.
then we will fight in the shade.
If we get 50 wins...
...playoffs or not, I'll be happy. Actually I'll be happy regardless because the future looks bright. If you've been a Dubs fans for a long time, you have to be happy with the direction of the team right now. Go Dubs... playoffs or not.
copy & paste: geocities.com/nellieballtee
138-127 (265 combined)
Warriors claw back from a 23-point 4th quarter deficit to tie it at 125 and put Phoenix away with a barrage of 3's, their only points in OT coming from 2 free throws by Raja Bell.
If that doesn't make you believe nothing will. Even the boys from Memphis, Tennessee will believe after watching this. Rudy Gay proceeds to drop 82 on the Nuggets and his jersey will become the worldwide bestseller.
Then we lose to Seattle 90-85
just kidding about that last one
Let's enjoy this one
I hope they come out with energy and give us a good show. Playoffs or not, this has been a fun year.
haha
I did it manually. Just click the little tree and copy the link to your pic. I won't be doing that everytime so I hope they find a way to include pics in the sigs again.
I agree...
It's a little boring without the picture-signatures.
copy & paste: geocities.com/nellieballtee
Yeah
Most webpins made a Warriors statement with a lot of attitude. It also made it very easy to know who's commenting. As soon as I saw a heavy duty Foyle pin, I knew it was Zorgon.

Game
246 combined score with both players having the same amount of fouls!
Cactus prediction
Heading to the game now in my sweet #17 jersey. I predict Nash with 3 and Baron with 5 but Warriors win as we adjust to the big cactus and get more out of the bench then the last game.
There were TONS of Warriors fans for the last game and I hope for the same this time.
Let's put the squeeze back on the Nugs and see what happens!
Its Been Fun ...
.. The Party's Over
.. The Fat Lady is Singing
.. the Moment was Denver game, now its Over Baby
.. The Goose is Cooked
.. Next Season
Hater
We're right on the precipice of the playoffs. If this doesn't get you excited, what does? Did one year of being an eight seed already make you jaded about Warriors basketball? Even if we miss out, I'm still excited as hell to have been witness to a 48-50 win season. It definitely beats sulking in February when we know we're already out of the playoff race. Can I get an amen?
then we will fight in the shade.
Now what kind of a fan...
Predicts these things? Even if you think we should lose, you're supposed to be blind and biased! :) that's the fun part!!!
LOL ...
.. so sorry some reality got injected by my prediction. lol.
If you didn't like that, then please don't go back and read the Denver game comments.
(BTW ... some responders to my minor prediction today were absent from that Denver game posted comments -- the most important game of the year! Where were those absentee superfans for the much needed Denver game? :)
Beat the Suns!
Let's show them that neither Shaq nor Amare can stop the Warriors.
TV -What Channel
Does anyone know what Channel CSN+ is on for the Suns/Warriors game tonight?
I have DIsh Network
Bobby Jackson & Shane Battier
are both playing right now vs the Jazz. WTF? I hope Utah kicks the crap out of this team tonight, and sweeps them and their literally crybaby Superstar out the 1st round.
I'm going to make an outrageous prediction
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
In the end, one team will have more points than the other, and therefore win.
It never occurred to me that one man could play with the faith of 50 million.

Difference between Warriors and others
We post up guards for fadeaway jumpshots at the end of the game, they move the ball and find the open shot or get fouled.
I just hate how we throw away crucial possessions when we have the lead.
Who cares though there is no pressure on this game, it feels like November again when you could just watch basketball and appreciate it.

Must have got into some trouble at halftime. You don't sit your star player all half because he was struggling. He must have done something that was pretty serious at half.

all the while he was criticized for putting baron back in while the bunch made a run to bring the game close in a recent game.
the bench kept the warriors in this game with, what, nearly 50 points.
i respect nelly for not playing baron.
baron was dead cold and all he would be doin is shooting contested 3's. good job nelly! though u shouldve played belinelli in the last seconds

Comment are just flooding in. Good game Warriors, though.
Whatever
Denver ain't losing to Memphis, and on top of that, the Warriors haven't beaten a good team playing good in a LOOONG time.
I'm hoping for a pick in the 11, 12, 13 range. I don't think we'll get higher than that.
You do realize this is impossible. The dubs either jump up to 1, 2, 3 or stand pat at 14.

Here's to next year BEST FANS IN NBA !!!
thank you!!!
i can agree with the BEST FAN in the NBA!!!

Baron Davis
Lost us the game IMO.
This is going to be the 1st time Baron played 82 games since his 3rd year with charlotte.. 48 wins(with one game left) is extremely good. We just didn't have the playoff run we had last year.. We lost the big games, when they counted the most. All 8 teams above us in the west deserve to make the playoffs more then us. Hopefully next season we get a big man and hopefully make the playoffs.
Thanks Golden State for a great season. I watched all but 3 games and I have to tell you, I had an enjoyable time watching them.
Hopefully we get a good draft pick, too. I'd like to see Nellie play the younger guys more, next season.

the Dubz can get their ping pong ball in the hole..

Good season. Completely admirable. Especially for lacking talented depth.
I'll keep telling myself that the Warriors own a better record than the team that Lebron James plays for in a different conference.
I'm really disheartened by these posts coming in as I'm typing this that discredit this season as a whole. We improved from last year - without J Rich - we watched Monta to develop into something amazing (something so amazing I fear that another team will be willing to tempt him with a lot of money), Andris continued to impress all season long and we saw a couple rookies and D-League come-ups show us what they had. Kelenna might be a keeper, Brandan might be a keeper and Kosta might be a keeper. The season can produce big things for next season.
wut?!?
so your happy with not being in the post season... hey, if that doesnt piss you off then you're a better man... also, keep telling yourself if they played in the east it would be a different story because i'll keep telling myself if they were in the philipino basketball association then we would be CHAMPS!
win or lose... playoffs or lottery... i gotta luv them dubz! GSW 4 Life!!!
I am disappointed; a little extra money earned from a post season birth could go a long way in keeping in big names.
We improved while developing youth, we traded a talented veteran in J Rich for the future and still managed be a better team than we were the previous season. We also rode out a six game suspension dealt to a star player.
Even if this team did make the post season would you be satisfied when the Warriors would get eliminated in the first or second round? This is in no way a championship team - this is barely a conference semifinals team.
This conference was stacked with talent and saw talent from the eastern conference join it's ranks halfway through the season. Huge trade or just Chris Webber, if both, one, the other or nothing happened this team still had to fight uphill all year.
At the beginning of the season everyone here would've said "hell yes" if we were offered a 49 win season knowing we had - at best - an eight man rotation.

Crazy West ...
.. Who could have guessed Gasol to Lakers, Shaq to PHX, Kidd to Mavs .. all this year?
With the West this tough, you gots to play your bench all year. Or just get worn out .. like BD and S-Jax are.
Dubs played 0.600 ball a lot of the year. Not bad. Just not good enough in the craziness of this year.
controversy in the valley of the sun
What do you think transpired between Baron and Nellie at half time? Did Baron give up in the season beforehand? Are we a better team without Baron taking his "rhythm" three? We certainly couldn't get to the line at the end of the game without him. Only superstars get calls at the end of the game, and Baron is the closest thing we have to a superstar.
Hell of a Season. I hope the Nuggets are happy after they are swept in the first and the Warriors get a top 3 pick.
I think Nellie sensed that Baron already packed it in. Or maybe Baron had too big of a birthday bash last night.

Bleh
and I spent it watching the FSN Arizona side.
I
said that whoever scores 120 first would win... It has happened 4 times this season between these 2 teams... The first to 120 wins. Unfortunatly it was the Suns... I really cried when the game ended. I was so sure that we would be in the playoffs thise season, we had such a great year with probably 49 wins! It´s very disappointing and frustating and I´m feeling really sad that we are eliminated right now. I think that this team right now, has be changed, not much, but need changes. We should keep Monta, Baron, maybe Biedrins (I would trade him if we could get an Elton Brand or something, or a top 2 or 3 pick...). I mean, I like our style, I like our starting five, but it will never get it done, it didnt this year and it will not do it next year, specially with the Clippers at full speed, Hornets maturing, Portland with Oden, and all the other teams like the Lakers, Dallas, Phoenix with their new stars. It will be tough, we need to make changes, but I´m feeling good about next year. I´m frustated right now, I´m not 100% happy with this season, but hey, we are Dub fans, where believing in next year happens!
F**K REFS!!!
Warriors
will probably end the season 49 - 33. It's hard to be unhappy with that kind of record. Warriors played some great basketball and we'll be out for blood next season. Something to look forward to. I got tickets to their last game and I plan to give a damn good round of applause. They deserve it.
dang
its hard to believe the dubs will finish 49-33 and not make it, hopefully we go out and try to get elton brand, now we can focus or attention to the sharks, gr8 season dubs, mayb next year, next year, im still in disbelief
Congratulations NBA referees-
You finally finished us off with a tremendous showing tonight.
I was watching the Suns telecast, but I would love to hear what Barnett's reaction was to that last charging call on Ellis, and the non-call before that where Nash got underneath him (both completely blocking fouls, something nobody know better than Jim Barnett). Can anyone watching the CSN telecast give me a summary?
by st jean ruined my childhood on Apr 14, 2008 10:11 PM PDT reply actions
and as disappointed as I am
I really can't understand the people posting how horrible of a season it was. We really did play badly the last couple weeks. But we're going to win 49 games. More importantly, the Warriors gave us a great game to look forward to 81 times this year, which is really not something I am accustomed to as a Warriors fan. So overall, as much as it sucks now, I have to say it was one hell of a season and it just sucks that there are no more great Warrior games to look forward to.

There were quite a few "ticky-tac" (as Barnett and Fitz would say) calls on Pietrus (along with some low-IQ plays on his part) and Buike that sent - guess who - Stoudemire to the line. The disparity in foul calls was amazing that quarter. Why pick the fourth quarter to start calling charges? Why send the Suns into the bonus in about five minutes played? Amare might've scored eighteen or so in the fourth but how many come from the charity line? The Suns are a great team but the favoritism was appalling.
I refuse to believe that the Warriors are such a low-IQ team that they commit as many fouls as the referees and league would make it seem. No respect.

It was a great year
but there is obviously something in our Bay Area Water supply that manages to screw every single one of our beloved teams. It's a Bay Area curse. Simple as that. Think about it. The 49ers own our last championship. It's been a while. Thanks for a great year, and GO SHARKS (Our 1 pathetic hope)
Last year
I was captivated by the Warriors playoff run and series against the Mavs which forever cemented into a Warriors fan. I’ve been a 49er fan for a long time so being able to watch the Warriors (a team with a winning record) this year was great. I’m a new member here and this is my first post.
hey
let me just tell you the 49ers are hopeless for the next couple years :P jk

.....
such a hard time for me, but somehow, I expected the team to not be able to overcome the mighty west

Warriors, A's, 49ers... the only three that matter to me right now.
Stick a fork in em.
Its a done. deal. But hey, I know a lot of you guys(and gals) are angry right now and you have every right to be. The Warriors are prolly the only team that can drop 38 in a quarter then turn around and give up a 20-pt lead to pretty much any team. Its a roller coaster life we live as a Warriors fan, but hey, they have brought us so many exciting memories this season. You can’t be mad at that. There’s one thing for sure—this off-season won’t be quiet. Mully is not afraid to shake up the roster and make some significant changes to the lineup.
Taking a quik scan at this season’s free agent crop. Some names pop straight off my computer screen: Josh Smith, Shawn Marion, J O’Neal, Emeka Okafur, Elton Brand, Ron Artest. You see the trend there? Defensive-minded players. The 3 guys that really intrigue me are Brand, Smith, and Marion. We need a big man that can score at will in the post, rebound, and most importantly, is intimidating on the defensive end. You can throw Okafur in there too. Hmm…maybe Mully can use his jedi mind tricks to pull off a sign and trade to snatch up one of these guys. As long as we can sign Monta to a multi-year contract and keep Baron from bouncin, we have the 1-2-3 core to keep intact. along with Jacks I think everyone else is fair game to wheel and deal. Barnesy is definitely gone. So is Mickeal. We can dangle Biedrins while his stock is high. Teenage Mutant Ninja Al is disposable too.
It was good while it lasted, but I think this current squad ain’t cuttin it. They will continue to be an 8 seed in the competitive West if this team remains intact. No way we can get further with the matador defense we play. Nellie needs to hire a defensive guru as an asst coach and evangelize defense this off-season. Its imperative.
Warriors: I’ll let it go this season for not making the playoffs. If you don;t make the post season next year, its a different story. We want progress not digress. Make us still BELIEVE.
We Believe!!!
i really want to see baron’s comments about nellie benching him for the 2nd half. do you guys think that’s gonna affect what happens to our chances of resigning him?
good season warriors. i enjoyed every minute of the roller coaster. but next season, lets tone it down a bit eh? :P.
so many memories. don’t forget em. we’ll be back guaranteed! even it if takes another 14 years! :P
also
refs didnt decide this season for us. the losses to denver and dallas down the stretch did.
when has....
when has run and gun ever won anything in the nba.? how can taking contested shots be better than taking wide open shots? how can going for steal after steal be better than playing solid defense against smart teams with good point guards? the warriors will never win the nba championship like this. there is a difference between being good and great; the warriors are just good, and anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional
I'm sorry Warrior fans
I know it’s not much consolation, but you guys have a really fun team to cheer for and I’m very sorry that you just barely missed the playoffs. You guys are faithful fans, and deserve some playoff fun. The West was just crazy, yo.
Nearly 50 wins is a successful season, especially in the crazy West. I wish you all the best in the future, except when you play the Blazers.
It sucks that the East is so bad, and that you have your best team in years the same year the 8th seed in the West has to win 50 games just to make the playoffs, but there isn’t much to be done about those problems so try not to dwell on it. Monta will improve, Wright will improve, Beidreins will only get better, you got a bright future. Plus, Baron is only 28. If he can stay healthy and motivated, he’s got 4 more GOOD years. A lot can happen in the time span.
I know that no matter what you guys will still love your team, so I ain’t worried about that. I just feel awful for such faithful fans being victim to a fluke season, and I hope you guys don’t take it too hard.
Like I said, good luck in the future except when you play the Blazers. Take care.
