Warriors Season Schedule

UPDATE: Thanks to "Warriors8" for posting the actual schedule in a Fan Post. I've hidden that fan post and posted it after the jump. Also thanks to "Dubs fan in Boston" for posting a link to ESPN's Games to Watch.

==========================================

The Warriors season schedule is going to be released today. We'll get a chance to find out when Baron Davis will come back to town as a Clipper. As far as Dunleavy, JRich, and Foyle returning, I'm over it. No need to boo Dunleavy every time she touches the ball, give JRich a standing O when he gets introduced, or for the Warriors to give Foyle his own video montage during intros. 

It will also give us a chance to plan out when some of the top and hyped players come to town. LeBron, Kobe,

Bob Fitzgerald, on KNBR's Murph and Mac show, just dropped a sneak peak at the schedule with 4 little nuggets.

1) Opening Day is Wednesday, October 29 vs the New Orleans Hornets
I think it's at home, but I'm not sure. All I know is that it's going to be a rough opening to a season. CP3 is never fun, I'm hoping he gets a little tired out from these Olympic games, but I doubt it.

2) 24 of the first 38 games are on the road
Ugh. After the last 2 years of the majority of games at home during the first 2 months, the Warriors have to play on the road for the majority of the time. It'll be tough for such a young team who have lost their fearless leader who didn't care where he played. At least we still have Jax who enjoys sticking it to the opponent's crowd. Hopefully Monta can replace BD's toughness on the road. If this is not a good road team (last year's was very good), we could be looking at being below .500 in mid to late January.

3) 2 preseason games in China
The Warriors play 2 preseason games in China but I can't remember the 2 opponents. I think one was Milwaukee. It's a loooong flight and I'm sure China will be a culture shock to some of these youngsters. Will it be beneficial for the Warriors or the players in terms of basketball? I doubt it. But I'm sure some (many?) of them would not have visited China if not for these 2 games.

4) 8 games on national TV
The Warriors play 8 games on national tv. Shows the Warriors are getting some more respect and are being recognized as a team that people want to watch.

When the schedule actually is released, I'll include a link.

==========================================

UPDATE: Nevermind, Fitz said it would be released in a couple hours but it's out right now.

interesting and thoughtfully written about how GSW pieces can be brought together successfully this season

also points out that GSW has almost completely turned over the roster in past 2 years and it’s identity has evolved as a result, leading up to AL’s suggestion that this season’s team should blend Brown & Nelson characteristics

Will it be beneficial for the Warriors or the players in terms of basketball? I doubt it.

The NBA should boycott China for their Darfur policies. I can’t imagine any organization who’s members have historical ties to africa wanting to go put on a show in china right now?

NO WAI dat's a GREAt idea!!!!

YEA! China would really give a shit if the NBA decided to not give them the benefit of PRESEASON games!! There’s no way the NBA benefits by drumming up more interest from Chinese fans – this is all about China dying to host a couple preseason games no doubt. China would totally break off ties with Sudan if they couldn’t get in on the action in two preseason games. The Communist government loves the Warriors style of run-and-gun and see it as method they’d like to use to re-annex Taiwan in a few years.

Please, take your stupid politics elsewhere.

by biggiep on Aug 6, 2008 11:22 AM PDT up reply actions  

LMAO

Seriously, the government hardly benefits from a few measly basketball games enough to alter its foreign policy. By “boycotting China” you would only be depriving Chinese fans of being able to watch the NBA in person and not government officials. If you can’t make the distinction between an oppressive government and its innocent people, then you are clearly just being racist.

by phundamentalz on Aug 6, 2008 11:30 AM PDT up reply actions  

Big Picture

Skeptic has a point. It’s not that denying China a couple of preseason games is going to affect their policy re Sudan, but a general boycott by American business sure would put the pressure on. The NBA is not going to stop genocide on its own but it can set an example by using whatever leverage it has to send a statement and put pressure on those that support it, and encouraging other business to do the same.

But the NBA has decided its more important to gain a toe-hold in the Chinese market than to set an example by not doing business with those that fund genocide.

the NBA: where caring (only about money) happens

the NBA is a business that makes billions of dollars. theres also over a billion potential fans in China…from a business standpoint, itd be foolish for the NBA to boycott or ignore China…

from a humanitarian standpoint however, the NBA is a bunch of lying, cheating, greedy assholes

by 3Kings650 on Aug 6, 2008 1:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

yup, just like Google, Yahoo, Coca Cola, etc.

multinational corps are driven by profits, hence only boycotts get their attention – as they did in the 1980s when US sanctions in South Africa helped tip the Apartheid govt. to accepting open elections …

Google & Yahoo connive at letting the PRC censor the internet – the antithesis of that medium

Coca Cola is currently being boycotted by some for its lack of action re Darfur & China

boycotts grow out of awareness and contribute to change, but the companies in their sights need to be told that they are being boycotted to have an effect and the media has to be used shrewdly to spread the word …

Last year....

I remember seeing the Cavs in China, last preseason and there was tons of excitement…....yes, for PRESEASON games.

I think you are wrong if you think China doesn’t benefit from these games.
Plus, it will help sell “our franchise” to the largest basketball loving population in the world.

You really don’t see any benefit? for you, obviously not.
but for the Warriors, tons of +s.

Warriors first 8

New Orleans

Memphis

That’s only 2 1/2 (Denver) playoff teams from last year

Clippers first 8

Lakers
Denver
Utah<br />Utah<br /> Lakers
Houston
Dallas
Sacramento

Then there next game is against us (we play Detroit in the meantime).

Good chance they could be 1-7. (maybe 2-6) While we SHOULD be over .500 (could be 6-3) when we first meet Baron.

I'm concerned about those last 4 too

Chances are those games will be the most important. I mean, we may be fighting for a spot and we got to face : Houston, Utah, San Antonio and Phoenix. That might be 0-4 right there. I’m hoping those last 4 will be meaningless (in the good way, not the bad way).

Preseason

I think the preseason games in China would be beneficial to the team. You make friends easily in surroundings you’re not familiar with.

The road games…ugh…I think we’ll be a sub .500 team unless we can do what Portland did last year and go on a tear.

by gunwing54 on Aug 6, 2008 11:02 AM PDT reply actions  

Yeah, think last season's Celtics.

Doc took them on a little vacation of some sort to a place I can’t remember right now, but the result was a much closer team. hopefully China does that for our squad.

why is this posting so negative?

sure we have more road games in the first half of the season..but if you take a look, we have a pretty easy start to it as well. other than new orleans, we have a fairly easy schedule with the possible exception of portland and detroit

I’m pretty sure we had more nationally televised games last year…

Finally, Going to China wont be a negative experience for the team at all.

I love you too

If you read the post thoroughly, you would have known that I posted this before the schedule came out and didn’t know the opponents of the first 38 games. Regardless, the schedule is tough for a team that isn’t an elite team. It’s not just new orleans, portland, and detroit that are difficult in those first 38 games, 24 of which are on the road. Perhaps you didn’t fully look at the schedule.

Also, how will going to China for 2 preseason games help the team? They’re not going to get the same rest they normally would.

Also, there’s a no swearing policy on this site. I deleted an earlier comment of yours where you used inappropriate language. If you continue to do so, we’ll have to ban you and we don’t want to do that.

...during the last week of the season – last four games: Houston, Utah, San Antonio, then Phoenix. Could be tough.

Fun to see this. Some quick impressions…


November
Sat 01 at New Jersey 4:30pm
Mon 03 at Memphis 5:00pm
Wed 05 vs Denver 7:30pm
Fri 07 vs Memphis 7:30pm
Sun 09 at Sacramento 6:00pm
Tue 11 vs Minnesota 7:30pm

We start with the Hornets and then head to Toronto, but we then get this really breezy stretch: six pretty weak teams, no back-to-backs. There is no excuse for starting 0-6 this year… if we’re gonna have any sort of season, we’re gonna need to win four or five of these. Especially since this road trip looms just a week or two later:

Sun 23 at Philadelphia 2:00pm
Tue 25 at Washington 4:00pm
Wed 26 at Boston 4:30pm
Fri 28 at Cleveland 4:30pm
Sat 29 at New York 4:30pm

YIKES, that’s a brutal trip. Five games in seven nights… only one soft team in the bunch, and they come at the end, when we’ll be so worn out that we might be vulnerable. If we win two of these, we should be overjoyed.

Finally, the end of the season:

March
Fri 13 vs Dallas 7:30pm
Sun 15 vs Phoenix 6:00pm
Tue 17 vs LA Clippers 7:30pm
Thu 19 LA Lakers 7:30pm <br /> Fri 20 vs Philadelphia 7:30pm <br /> Sun 22 New Orleans 4:00pm
Tue 24 San Antonio 5:30pm <br /> Wed 25 Dallas 5:30pm
Sat 28 @ Denver 6:00pm
Mon 30 vs Memphis 7:30pm

April
Wed 01 vs Sacramento 7:30pm
Fri 03 vs New Orleans 7:30pm
Sun 05 Sacramento 6:00pm <br /> Wed 08 vs Minnesota 7:30pm <br /> Fri 10 vs Houston 7:30pm <br /> Sat 11 Utah 6:00pm
Mon 13 vs San Antonio 7:30pm
Wed 15 @ Phoenix
Staples Center, Los Angeles, CA 7:30pm

I think this closing schedule is extremely good for us. Firstly, it features a lot of non-bubble teams. We’ve had two really strong finishes to seasons in the last four years, and a big variable in that - whether some fans want to acknowledge it or not - is that you tend to face a lot of unmotivated teams from mid-March on. Set playoff teams start resting guys, bad teams are just playing out the string… unless you’re a bubble team, there’s a good chance you’re not going full-tilt.

Of our last eighteen games, eight are against teams that should have either clinched playoff berths or will be extremely close to doing it (Lakers, Jazz, Spurs, Hornets, Sixers, Rockets). Another four are against weak teams who should already be out of it (Wolves, Grizzlies, Kings). That’s a lot of games where we’ll likely be playing for more than our opponents. Doesn’t mean we’ll win all of them or even half of them, necessarily, but it’s a good time for us to face a bunch of heavyweights.

That leaves six games in the final eighteen against the Suns, Mavs, Nuggets and Clippers… all six of those teams are in the 7-11 gray area of the conference. Half of those games are at home, and more importantly, only one of the six is part of a back-to-back. Also, seventeen of our last eighteen games are in-conference… we all got familiar with the importance of conference record as a tie-breaker last year. Add it all up, and we look to have a strong chance to control our fate at season’s end. We’ll see if that comes into play or not.

Finally, I’m not too worried about the road-heavy start. We were quite good on the road last year, and that’s despite Baron being significantly worse on the road than he was at home. That’s not to say that we won’t miss Baron on the road… we’ll miss Baron everywhere, and Monta also played less well on the road. But I don’t think we’ll be absolutely lost on the road sans Baron. (Maggette, incidentally, was better on the road than at home last season, though that hasn’t been a consistent trend for him.) And I’d rather see the team get a nice stretch at home once they’ve started to gel—they may be somewhat more likely to please the Oakland faithful that way.

40-42

I’m just going to call it the way I see it.

OCT – 1-1
NOV – 8-7
DEC – 9-8
JAN – 7-7
FEB – 5-5
MAR – 7-9
APR – 3-5

That’s including a 4 game sweep of the clippers. Man… that’s rough and I think good enough for 10th in the West.

A Sonics fan without a team.. Though I'm auditioning GS Warriors this season.

by mcwalter44 on Aug 6, 2008 1:55 PM PDT reply actions  

Really? 11-6.... REALLY?

Ok, now I’m as optimistic as it comes when I look the Warriors. Hell, I was telling people early in 06 that Warriors reminded me of the mid-90s Sonics teams I saw as kid and they’d for sure find away into the playoffs. However, I couldn’t disagree with you more on the Warriors going 11-6 in November.

NO – Loss
@TOR – Win
@NJ – Loss
@MEM – Win
DEN – Coin flip
MEM – Win
@SAC – Win
MIN – Win
DET – Loss
@LAC – Coin flip
POR – Loss
CHI – Win
@PHI – Win
@WAS – Loss
@BOS – Loss
@CLE – Loss
@NY – Win

So that’s 8-7 with 2 coin flip games so I can see 10-7, 9-8 or 8-9. I could also see the Warriors turning the tables on my prediction beating NJ and POR, but at first glance I think both those games are loses. Feel free to post back at which games I have wrong. Hell, I’d love to see the 11-6 that you predict, because that would put my final prediction for the season at 42-40.

Wrong again

We will not lose at NJ. They are one of the worst teams in the league. We will beat Denver at our house. We will split Clips/Port games. We will not lose 3 in a row at the end of the month I see us beating Washington, they are oevrrated. So their you go 11-6.

by smearthebeard on Aug 7, 2008 12:08 PM PDT up reply actions  

Here's How I see This Stretch of Schedule

NO – Loss
@TOR – Loss
@NJ – Win
@MEM – Win
DEN – Coin flip
MEM – Win
@SAC – Win
MIN – Win
DET – Loss
@LAC – Loss
POR – Loss
CHI – Win
@PHI – Loss
@WAS – Loss
@BOS – Loss
@CLE – Loss
@NY – Coin Flip

Toronto has J. Oneal now and is tough on the road. I havn’t double checked the schedule but we always seem to play them at a weird matinee time at like 10 a.m. Those are real tough to win and I think it’s an auto loss.

I don’t see us beating the Portland Greg Odens and Bdiddy won’t lose to us in his house. That road trip is absolutely brutal at the end. Boston on a back to back? Jeez, last year we got wiped during the same situation. I’d be happy with a win in NY, but even that is not guaranteed.

so i see it as 6-9 with 2 coin flips

by JimBarnett2KevinGarnett on Aug 7, 2008 1:09 PM PDT up reply actions  

Are You Serious?

First, learn how to spell consistEnt before you call someone an idiot. I have watchedenough nba and warrior games to know that a win in the league is not easy especially for the warriors and with this warrior team minus Bdiddy.

Here are the teams I have us losing too.

N.O – Consistently bad? #2 team in the west last year, young, adding posey and gaining some experience.

@ Toronto – Consistently bad? .500 last year and added Jermaine O’neal plus dubs are on the road. Easily can lose this game Toronto will be favorite by Vegas.

Detroit – Consistently bad? If an Nba title and constant appearances in the Eastern Conference finals is consistently bad then Detroit is consistently bad.

@Lac – Consistently bad? Ya, they have been consistently bad for the life of their franchise but are more competitive in recent years. They always play us tough. Factor in Bdiddy wanting to stick it to the dubs, home court advantage, and the additions of Camby/White Chocolate/Ricky Davis/Eric Gordan and this team will be far from bad.

Portland – They are the upcoming team and most likely to be a future dynasty. They will be more seasoned and will have Greg Oden. Add Bayless and this team is scary and will probably be the Vegas favorite even though they are on the road against the dubs.

@phi – on the road against a tough philly squad with Elton Brand. This team is far from bad and a legitimate contender in the East. They almost knocked off the Pistons last year in the playoffs and are bringing everybody back. Miller, Iggy, Brand does not make up a consistently bad squad.

@ Wash – Gil Arenas presumably will be back and healthy. Wiz had 43 wins last year with him out most of the season and we all know how Gil likes to stick it to the dubs. Warriors will be on the road. Dubs will be the underdogs and are gonna have to play a hell of a game to beat the Wiz in their house.

@Bos – Back end of a back to back. We all saw how that treated us last year. Dubs lost by like 30. Auto loss.

@ Clev – playing the Cavs on the road amidst a brutal stretch of 4 games in five nights is not good. Cavs are far from consistently bad with Lebron 45 wins and a finals appearance 2 years ago is consistently bad to you.

@NY – I was nice saying this game was a coin flip. If i had a gun to my head, I’d say the knicks are going to win. I’m just being realistic. 4th game in 5 nights at the end of a brutal road trip against what should be an improved squad under Mike Dantoni. I’d be shocked if Warriors are Vegas favorites in this game.

In conclusion, you sir, are an asshat.

Foyle

I only will allow a Foyle Montage when he shows up if its all of him shooting the 17 footers he loved to bust out.

Foyle Video Montage!

And Foyle dominance! He should start jacking up 3s!!!!

(Actually, I have seen him shoot a jumper in a preseason game against the Cavaliers in China. One of the wierdest, yet best moments of my life. He made it.)

"We'll get a chance to find out when Baron Davis will come back to town as a Clipper."

Good thing it’s January 25th. Hopefully he’ll have quit on his team, gotten Dunleavy Sr. fired and gained 30lbs of fat by then.

Actually, I think he’s going to have a really good season since he’ll be motivated. I’m not sure if that will last either 1 or 2 seasons. He’s also going to turn it on big time against the Warriors and especially at Oracle.

I wonder if Nellie has any tricks to exploit Baron’s weaknesses like he had for Dirk.

The China thing is too bad just from a conditioning and preparation standpoint. At least they world will get a taste of fun, unique, not-by-the-book basketball. Even if it isn’t necessarily the best plan since you need the perfect combination of skills and brains at 4 out of 5 positions to make it championship-grade and two of those has to be at the point guard and center.

It appears to any clear thinking

Laker fan that the Warriors will win 22-24 games this year. A nice and tidy 60 loss season! Well done I say!
