You're in good hands for post game coverage. IQofaWarrior will be dropping the post game linkage with Warriors Web and Feltbot of Feltbot's Warriors Blog fame will be doing a fantastic guest recap.
According to my calculations we're about 17.07% of the way through the 2009-2010 Golden State Warriors campaign. Some reflection on this artificial marker of the season that I just made up and thoughts on the tonight's matchup after the... JUMP!
Dubs Introspection at the 17.07% Point of the Season
- Sure there's some turnovers that make you shake your head, but rookie Stephen Curry can pass the rock. My crystal ball says Stef-fun will be droppin' dimes in the league for years to come.
- It's too bad the Warriors didn't ship out the artist formerly known as Captain Jack, now known as "Captain" Jack earlier. This isn't to say that everything is golden. but there's a certain tension and dysfunction from this team that have been lifted. We're back to playing basketball... as long as Monta Ellis doesn't throw another tantrum.
- Speaking of Ellis, the past few games he's been attacking the basket like it was 2007-2008. That's refreshing to see. His court vision and hoops IQ is still very suspect, but props to him. Maybe it's too early to really tell, but his lift looks like it's back.
- Where are all those folks who were screaming "The Warriors shouldn't trade Andris Biedrins and Brandan Wright for the injury prone Amare Stoudemire!" this past offseason? Guess what folks? Amare hasn't missed a game this season. Wright is out for the season and it's hard not to be skeptical of his chances of being much more than a bench player in this league if he can even stay healthy. Biedrins has been absolutely awful in the 4 games he's played this season and is out indefinitely. Who in their right mind wouldn't trade these two for Amare right now? Dumb (trading Jason Richardson and breaking up WE BELIEVE for Wright and saving Cohan some green) and Dumber (not willing to trade Wright and Biedrins for Amare).
- Anthony Randolph has been the biggest disappointment of the season thus far. For the most part he looks utterly lost on the court. His finishing ability near the bucket right now is some of the worst I've seen for a Warriors big in the past decade- and that's really saying something. His fundamentals (something as simple as squaring up to the basket) are just completely missing. He must lead the league "what is he thinking?'s" per 36. I think he'll get there, but the national and local media (most of whom don't actually watch him play) constantly irrationally hyping him up as if he's already arrived and is entitled to major playing time aren't helping out the situation.
- The Nellie bashing from national media types who haven't watched a Warriors game the past 2 seasons is annoying. The Nellie bashing from local media types who haven't watched the many Warriors games or have a bizarre vendetta against the future hall of famer is annoying. The Nellie bashing from mostly uneducated and bandwagon fans is annoying. It's shocking how many low-blow articles were pumped out when the poor guy was down with pneumonia and head coach-sub Keith Smart beat the Mavericks (um, like Nellie hasn't had any success doing that) using Nelson's game plan. Not classy at all. Also see Chris Webber and Kevin McHale Talk Don Nelson and Golden State Warriors on NBA TV + RUMOR: Golden State Warriors Head Coach Don Nelson on his way out
- This is simply not a good basketball team. Larry Riley please make some trades. Sell high on Monta Ellis and Randolph if that's what it takes to bring on a legitimate 2-way star. There should be some takers for Biedrins and Ronny Turiaf as well. All those expiring contracts will make the numbers add up.
Ebok... Ebok... Ebok...
The Lakers are in town and that means the reigning NBA Finals MVP will be in town. Say what you want about Ebok, but this guy works extremely hard and is supremely gifted. Putting aside Eagle Rock, how can you not respect game?
Respect Game.

I've met by fair share of dumb Laker fans over the years, but these cats are refreshingly sharp. Keeping rolling off those screens fellas.
A Look at the Pac Sun
Predictions
- Monta Ellis abuses the spectacularly overrated and low hoops IQ Derek Fisher. Fish flops in Oakland though and picks up a few cheap charges from unsuspecting refs. Tonight it's not "REF U SUCK!", it's "REF FISH FLOPPED!"
- Shannon Brown throws down another sick jam like this one that makes Mikki Moore scream "MIKEY!" again.
- Stef-fun tosses some highlight dimes and collects 8+ assists.
- Ron Artest goes into the stands to beat up a few of the annoying Laker fans acting a fool at the Roaracle tonight.
- Lamar Odom schools Anthony Randolph and afterwards says something ridiculous like "Randolph will be a top 50 NBA player" again just to tease delusional Warriors fans.
- Andrew Bynum posts 20 points and 10 boards.
- Anthony Morrow drains at least 4 treys.
- Pau Gasol inhales 12+ rodmans.
- Adam Morrison gets some playing time.
- Warriors by 1... fool, cause it's Saturday!

I've been a Monta hater for a while now...
But I gotta give the main props. He’s playing out of his mind.
AT THE SAME TIME – IF we’re going to trade him, we should do it now. As in – this week.
Before you lose your mind – I said IF.

“The Warriors shouldn’t trade Andris Biedrins and Brandan Wright for the injury prone Amare Stoudemire!” this past offseason?
Suns would of not done the trade anyways. and Amare said he didn’t wanna play here so if he did get traded here he would be a problem.
So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

Amare trade could have to have included Curry, don't forget
and that would have sucked. Not to mention that Amare did not want to come to the bay area and would have left after the end of the season anyways……
I think you’re being way too harsh on AB. Give the guy a break, he has been the stand up guy busting his ass on both ends of the court since he’s been here and he’s a great rebounder and shot blocker. His problem is that he was playing hurt the whole preseason and was never healthy.
Randolph is still getting it together……only 20 years old and very raw. Don’t give up on him yet for crying out loud!
And you want to trade Monta now? Why? This isn’t Moneyball brother! I think that would be a disastrous move at this point because he’s now taken the reigns and is playing Montaball!
Let a brother get some breathing room around here, yo!
I love your artwork by the way….good stuff Tony. Go Dubs!

It's only been 10 days or so
since we traded Stephen Jackson to the Bobcats, but it seems like so long ago. In that time, the home crowd has only seen the new team ONCE, the win against the Blazers. Tonight will the the second time we see the “new” team, which could include Turiaf and even George in the available roster.
I expect Curry to look hesitant and tentative, as he faces the experienced Lakers for the first time. Similarly, I expect to see Hunter look just as lost on the defensive end, like he did in the Spurs game. I expect to see Randolph make another dumb play and draw the ire of Monta Ellis again. He did that in the Spurs game, and it was mentioned by Dave Flemming on the radio side. I expect Morrow once again to not get many shots.
I expect our team to get down to the Lakers, but keep fighting. I expect Bob to make his usual and annoying “we’re down, but we’re right there” speech while we keep fighting.
Finally, I expect a ROAR out of the Roaracle fans tonight. And even though it’s early in the season, I expect a few scattered M-V-P chants for Monta.

“Biedrins has been absolutely awful in the 4 games” It seems to me the team played awful the first 4 games, not really fair to single AB out.
And can we at least give Wright a chance before we list him as injury prone. He has had one shoulder injury that was not surgically repaired when it should have been. I blame the team doctor for wright missing this season, not BW.
My god...how many times do we have to run through this?
I’m going to assume you didn’t read my post about Brandan Wright a few months ago so I won’t get TOO pissed.
Here’s the link – READ IT NOW. BRANDAN WRIGHT – INJURY PRONE
And if you get too lazy, here’s my point.
2. I was right.
I love those three words in every possible permutation.
A few months ago, I detailed BWright’s shoulder injury.
Anatomy 101
Alright fellas, here’s the difference.
“* Dislocated shoulder. In this injury, a fall or blow causes the top of your arm bone to pop out of the shoulder socket.
Unlike a lot of joints in your body, your elbow, for instance, the shoulder is incredibly mobile. You can twist and move your upper arm in almost any direction. But there’s a price for this ease of movement. The shoulder joint is inherently unstable, prone to slipping out of place.
In severe cases of dislocated shoulder, the tissue and nerves around the shoulder joint get damaged. If you keep dislocating your shoulder, you could wind up with chronic instability and weakness.
* Separated shoulder. Despite the name, this injury doesn’t directly affect the shoulder joint. Instead, a fall or blow tears one of the ligaments that connects the collarbone to shoulder blade.
Since it’s no longer anchored, the collarbone may move out of position and push against the skin near the top of your shoulder. Although separated shoulders can cause deformity, people usually recover fully with time."
At the end of the day a dislocated shoulder usually has more long term repercussions than a separated shoulder. Each time a joint is dislocated, it becomes easier and easier to get knocked out of place at a later time.
Brandan Wright had a shoulder dislocation. This is not good. The term “injury-prone” can be tossed around with him since that injury can be reoccurring. Think about his rebounding abilities…he can easily get knocked by someone bigger and BAM it pops out again.
This would not (or will not) be a problem if Brandan was bigger. Remember back in the day when everyone was complaining that he was stick and needed to put on muscle? This is the reason why. Injuries like this rarely happen to big beefy guys like Zach Randolph, Eddy Curry, Shaq, Tim Duncan….BIG MUSCLE = good for PFs!
Big ups to my anatomy class!
Let’s revisit that.
INJURED.
Sorry, too easy.
But in all seriousness, a shoulder dislocation is one of those injuries that you can call being “injury prone.” It does weaken the joint and lead to further injury if it is stressed by a big force – say, a big guy trying to block you. Now, I don’t know how the “slap” happened in practice on Friday, but I’m assuming it was by someone bigger than him. (I think someone mentioned it being Anthony Randolph, but I don’t know for sure.) Either way, it happened, and it shows that he does have recurring shoulder problems.
Now there’s one obvious question that comes up – how did he get reinjured after bulking up? I’m no doctor, but two things pop in my head as a bioengineer.
Yes, he bulked up, but it might have been in a case of too much too fast. If you add a bunch of muscle quickly, you basically didn’t do it naturally. It’s pretty physically hard to toss on 10 pounds of muscle (or more) in a month without the use of steriods or a bunch of protein. He had a small frame prior to the extensive working out and it might not be able to support it all initially.
The injury at his shoulder joint never fully healed. If this is the case (which is pretty possible) little things (like a slap) would set it off. When you’re doing muscle training and just trying to bulk up, if you’re doing it properly (which he probably was because he had a trainer present), the shoulder muscles were isolated. This means abnormal movements or things that would aggravate the joint would not have occured in the muscle training, thus, it would be possible for him to add on pounds.
We still believe!!

Elton Brand is a pretty “beefy” guy and he has had problems associated with the shoulder dislocating. Lamar Odom has had the same surgery twice and he has some of the most muscular shoulders in the league. The reality is that if you are really big and strong with weakened supporting structures (rotator cuff, labrum) you are actually MORE likely to experience further dislocations because you can generate greater force than your shoulder can handle. Bwright should have had surgery immediately after the first injury. Not doing so did in fact make him “injury prone” because he was still injured (the labrum was still torn). Once he returns from surgery and properly rehabs, there is little doubt that he can operate at the same level he did before.

I remain optimistic about BW's future
I missed your post the first time around, so thanks for the link with the 411 on the medical report of the shoulder.
Wright is out for the season and it’s hard not to be skeptical of his chances of being much more than a bench player in this league if he can even stay healthy.
This is just reads much too harshly and is suggesting a bleak future for BW. What I’m saying is – I’m not ready to write him off.
If you need to be right, we can discuss your insecurities and control issues on another thread. ;)

If we play hard, we can do this
Anyone going to the game tonight?
I'm a little worried about this game because.....
let alone am i worried about who is going to try to “slow down” kobe, are we gonna throw monta on him like we did broy? But more than anything I’m worried about who we are gonna throw on Ron Artest? The only person that I think could hang would be maggs… But then that means we have less ball movement on the offensive end and more complaining to refs that worries me. Pau Gasol is gonna have a field day but if the warriors are shooting well and not making stupid turnovers on offense they will have a “chance”. ..LGW
Game Predictions
- The Los Angeles Lakers defeat our Golden State Warriors, 114-104.
- Monta Ellis continues his big-time play with 32 points and 10 assists.
- I have no idea how we defend Kobe Bryant and Ron Artest with Monta Ellis and Anthony Morrow starting.
- Phil Jackson considers taking this game off.
- Sasha Vujacic’s girlfriend, Maria Sharapova, graces us with her presence.

Jackson, asked specifically about stopping Ellis, said, "You have to make him take those (perimeter) shots. Those shots aren’t what are going to beat you; it’s allowing him to get to the basket. He’s a real threat.
“We geared some our practice to planning to defending him.”
Jackson said he would play Kobe Bryant against Ellis tonight.

Was anyone’s main objection to the Amare trade that “he’s too injury prone”? That is certainly among the issues that Amare has (as well as one of Andris’ weak points) and not getting hurt in the first 8th of the season doesn’t disprove that, but did anyone you respect actually say “I don’t want Amare because he’s going to get hurt”? I stand by that the deal in question was probably going to be a lateral move at best. Here’s why:
1. It wasn’t actually Biedrins and Wright for STAT. You’re better than that Atma. Keeping Curry out of the deal is what made the Suns blink. Curry hasn’t been perfect this year, but our confidence in him seems very warranted and it looks like he and Monta might actually make a solid backcourt. The size issue looks like it was overblown this preseason.
2. Amare doesn’t really solve any of our main issues. He’s a terrible, terrible defender. Andris isn’t great in that regard, but he looks like an all-world defender in comparison. The deal also makes our rebounding issues worse. He’s an amazing scorer, but that’s hardly the biggest issue with this roster. A collection of no defense, no rebounding ballhogs is not a recipe for success and dealing Amare for Biedrins, Wright and Curry makes us worse in all those regards.
3. The contract. We’re either talking about an Amare rental or a max deal for a player who doesn’t deserve one. And we’d give up 3 great contracts to get him.
All in all, I’ll still pass on the Amare deal. Feel free to call me crazy.

Thanks for the good comment
Was anyone’s main objection to the Amare trade that "he’s too injury prone"
Plenty of people. Jump back to those comments if you don’t believe me. Amare’s health vs. Biedrins/ Wright was a deal breaker for many and the opening argument against trading for him.
1) No doubt it wasn’t just Biedrins + Wright for STAT, but that’s not my point. It’s about how Warriors fans and even the local media continually overrate this terrible mostly Mullin/ Rowell assembled roster and unnecessarily put down other team’s players in trade discussions.
2) Just like Rome wasn’t built in one day, neither is turning around this Warriors team. They need top tier talent in the worst way. Amare is a step in that direction. The rebounding will get much worse argument doesn’t hold if it opens up more time for Randolph (nice rebounding rate despite other obvious woes). I’d wager that Nellie would be more comfortable playing Amare/ Randolph together more so than Biedrins/ Randolph. It’s a lot easier to build a winner starting off with Amare vs starting off with Biedrins/ Wright.
3) 3 great contracts? How do you figure? Wright’s is awful. All that money down the drain for a guy who doesn’t play. You could hand me that money to sit on the bench and get the same production this season. Biedrin’s contract is looking to be equally awful. He’s been injury prone the past 2 seasons and isn’t improving. They gave a young player too much money too fast and didn’t make him earn it.

I’ll take your word for it. I probably just blacked out the aggressively stupid comments during the debate. But still, I think almost every reasonable poster was aware that all three players you mentioned are injury risks and while it may have made the deal worthwhile if Amare was basketball’s Cal Ripken, I’d seriously hope that no one looked at the trade and said "We’re giving up champions of health and endurance and getting a fixture in Phoenix’s (remarkably good) training room". I guess it comes down to a basic pillar of debate. Argue against the strongest opposing points, not the weakest.
1. I’ll grant you this one. We’ve talked plenty about Mullin’s overrated roster assembly. No need to rehash that here. I just think excluding Curry was a bit intellectually dishonest.
2. Amare was the best player in that trade, but he’s not the best guy on a contender and he was going to ask for that kind of money. You don’t start building Rome around Amare Stoudemire. You add him to a good team to push it over the top. We’d still need to find another max money worthy player to become a contender.
And to address the Randolph point, you said it yourself, he’s been a disappointment this year. Unworthy of big minutes but he’s been getting them due to injuries. He doesn’t play much with a healthy STAT around. At least not until he figures things out. I still hope he does, but I don’t see him getting much burn while playing like he has been if there’s a better option around. He wouldn’t be able to ride in on his noble steed and save the rebounding day.
3. Yeah, two rookie deals for good players and a six year non-escalating deal for a fantastic rebounder who scores efficiently and gives a crap on defense all qualify as great deals to me. I’ll grant you Wright’s deal as "not good" in retrospect because he’s hurt, but when he’s playing, he’s good. Don’t give me the "Biedrins didn’t earn his contract" nonsense. He’s the real deal and a very useful piece at a very reasonable price. He’s hardly overpaid.

Amare, A HAPPY Jackson, & Monta would have been a pretty decent core that would have at least got us to the playoffs right? Add in the two Anthony’s and an efficient scorer off the bench would lead us to more success than we have now right? An actual low post presence/scorer is something we haven’t had since C-Webb. Not like all this matters now with our destiny set now, but Monta/Morrow/Jax/Randolph/Amare >>>> Monta/Curry/Morrow/Randolph/Beans….

playoffs? probably. anything more than that? very doubtful. adding a max money amare would prevent us from adding any pieces to push us over the top. we all want to see this team make the playoffs, but i’ll roll the dice at a chance to build something than have my fate set as a 6-7 seed for a very long time.
heart of a champion, will of the warrior.
The Playoffs is a start. Nobody wants to come here to play for us. Not with this management and how much drama our terrible team goes through. We rolled the dice with Jax/Harrington and did wonders. But than we crapped out and traded Richardson for B-Wright. Even when Wright comes back, we’ll have to decide is he going to stay or are we pushing forward with Randolph because they cannot co-exist with neither of them having range. We overpayed by at least 3 Mil to get Maggette, so what would it take to get the likes of a Bosh or Nowitski? We don’t have a shot at these players and we most likely would have to do a Matggette & overpay for a second tier player. The best possibility would have been Amare.

why settle for the “best possibility” if the best possibility isn’t going to help the team much? i don’t want to bet everything on a non-existent defender who (at best) is an adequate rebounder. sure, he’s an amazing scorer, but that’s all he is. he’s not a savior.
i’ll take a core of monta/curry/randolph/biedrins and 2011 cap space over amare/monta/randolph/jack and no shot at a free agent for years (not to mention the miniscule amount of cash to resign randolph and morrow).

Expect to see tons of that tonight since he probably wants to show up Lamar Odom.
Predictions
-Josh Powell & DJ Mbenga both dunk on Mikey Moore simultaneously.
-Clumsy Kid Curry outlet passes it to Josh Powell, who in turn shares it with Mbenga to posterize Mikey Moore.
-Derek Fisher flops at Curry. Monta gives steph that look: “Kid, i’m tellin’ ya…”
-Hunter makes 2 shots and moves the pick n’ roll nicely.
Go Warriors!

There’s no such thing as Laker fans, there are only Kobe Bryant fans.
Trade Ellis
I really dont care if this team is playing good and Ellis is averaging 34 pts a game and we remain one of the worst teams in the West. Anytime you got a bad team, there would always be a moron who averages high points not cause he is good but cause he is in bad team. I would trade Ellis for an expiring contract like TMac or get me a Ak47 plus their rookie maynor, it dont matter what we get in return now as this season is clearly over. We need to think about the future, we got Curry as our future PG, then we need a legit SG who can not only score but defend well, maybe we if we suck bad then we get a superstar in our lottery pick, but what we should get is a true C/PF, either Amare, Bosh or Boozer, AR should try playing SF he will never be strong enough to guard top PF/C. Thank you for this post.
Waaaarroirs
Blasphemy!
I can’t tell if your serious or not…… Are you?
Rookie: "Why did you bench me?"
Nellie: "You're a rookie"
AR will never be agile or coordinated enough to play SF
he can easily gain weight and strength but not the foot speed or coordination to play the 3
TANK FOR JOHN WALL
"If you can make 10 things happen during the 10 minutes you play tonight, we will quadruple your salary and you will start for the rest of the season" ... and then he does just that, but the coach reneges on the promise so Anthony has a near-crying meltdown on the bench. That's every Anthony Randolph game.

Time killer thoughts
Assuming Turiaf is able to play tonight, who should start in the center spot tonight? I don’t think Randolph is ready to be a starter, so it’s either Turiaf or Moore. I suspect Moore will start the game and “hold the fort down”, then Turiaf and Randolph will come in for the later parts of the game, including the end of the game.
I saw on NBAtv he's ready to go but will come off the bench
AR is not ready to play center but he can start at power forward if we chose to actually put him there.
Rookie: "Why did you bench me?"
Nellie: "You're a rookie"
That's true. Either start or back up Radman at the 4
moves Maggette back to the backup 3, gives Morrow some relief from having to play 48 minutes, plus Morrow along with CJ get to relieve Monta and Curry. And then you can sprinkle in Devean George somewhere for some end of qtr relief to keep others out of foul trouble.

Another time killer thought
A few fans seem miffed that Don Nelson gets to add to his win record even though he’s sick at home and Keith Smart is coaching. What they don’t understand with that argument is that Nellie also takes the loss when the team loses. So if Keith Smart goes 0-3 for the next 3 games for a total of 1-4, Nellie has to eat those results in his own stats.
So in essence, Keith Smart is coaching with “free money”, or more accurately, “Nellie’s money”, right now.

Has to dribble to a spot and pull up he can’t be looking to pass on that his stroke is way too good! Again another inexcusable decision by Morrow.

Get a man in front of you and attempt a jump shot, with the hope that it will fall.

I wanna coach for a day
Run pick and rolls/pops all day with Monta and Randolph…Monta can get by Monta and if they bring help Randolph is open for a 15footer
Randolph
Misses his jumpshots whenever i see him shoot

Lakers just keep shooting 3's
Yeahh…. their a class act
i think the lakers wanted to send a message to the other teams
like the mavs, spurs, blazers, that they will NOT let the Warriors’s recent surge get to them.
Yeah but its not just the Lakers playing well...
THe warriors are playing horrible… missing open shots? cmon
I love how Bynum was in the lane for 9 seconds
and no three second violation whatsoever. I also love the fact that he can hold Hunter down to get an offensive rebound. Refs are a joke!
dan
thought he would do a better dunk than that
So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

I never understood the cheering of fans when your team is down by 30.
I mean maybe it can be to show a little support, but when you’re down by 30 and u hit a three with 8 minutes left, doesnt make much of a difference.
it's bad enough when the warriors have the play the lakers at staples,
but the laker fans should not out number us in oakland.
i dont think they outnumber us
its just that our fans dont have nothing to cheer about

Lets shoot some more threes and shove it up their ass?
Why not???
Disgrace to the game… Lakers might be good but they are scumbags
Well, Sasha doesn't play much, so I guess he's just trying to "get his" when he actually does play.

curry ballhogged the entire game
and tried to do a behind the back pass down 25 points!!!
by TimLaser and MattyC on Nov 28, 2009 9:57 PM PST up reply actions
he has been shooting more.
noticed he usually shoots when he’s not confident in passing. if he’s playing against teams that put more pressure. ie. the spurs….eh the flakers. i mean lakers.
He led all players in assists. Just plain hating calling him a ballhog. 8 assists is pretty good.

by cybermaldonado on Nov 28, 2009 10:01 PM PST up reply actions
i think some of those 8 came at the end of the game.
but seriously, 5 out of 15? that’s not pretty.
not that i’m blaming him. he just…you know, gotta pass just a little more.
(although, I noticed that CJ pass more than he shot. maybe he’s trying to be a playmaker?)
i think some of those8came at the end of the game
. You love saying this. It’s not true. If Cj wants to be a playmaker he better get more than 1 assist in 20 minutes. You sound pretty biased hating on Curry for 8 assists and Saying CJ passed the ball with only 1 assist.

Monta and Morrow were intimidated...
No one played aggressive,everyone was sloppy.
Basketball god,why does this always happen to us?The injuries,seriously it’s hard to be a Warriors fan when there’s only 7 players playing most nights.
I still support the Warriors 110% but we need our players back ASAP!

grrr, i'm pissed
i want to see this team take this loss with renewed enthusiasm and work harder on individual skills, then work harder on team plays, and team defense, and develop a stronger team mentality.
at least we have more wins than the laker's losses.

horrible
really bad warriors
Warriors ¡¡ EN ESPAÑOL !!!!
www.losgswarriors.blogspot.com
Lakers had 6 players with 3 or more assists. Warriors had 2.
If Bochy coached the Warriors Bengie Molina would start every game at PG.
as much in control of himself as smart usually is
he sounds pissed
Raja Bell would of locked Kobe down,like to 6 points...
-Kelenna would of blocked Brown’s cradle attempy
-Wright would of pulled rebounds all day against Gasol
-Biedrins would of boxed Bynum out
We still would of lost but..

doesn't feel like a championship
just a general approval for how well the Lakers played, especially for the bench.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.
Don't flatter yourself :)
It was a good win for us only our 4th game on the road but it wasn’t a big win for us. Lakers fans are still worried about their paper-thin bench, Fisher’s age, Lamar Odom’s tendency to disappear, Kobe’s 3 point shooting, Bynum’s decision making on defense, etc etc
It seems Lakers fans always have something to worry about and are only truly happy after a championship
if i heard monta correctly
he’s basically saying he needs a sidekick
to compete with LA? he needs 4 sidekicks
Kobe, Artest, Gasol, Odom, Bynum would all immedatiely be our first or second best player
I really don't think its that....
Lakers have 5 all star caliber players. And all have been in the system 2 years+ (minus artest), they know exactly what they want to do, how they want to move the ball etc. etc. If they wanna play, tey r unstoppable
The Fans
I knew the Dubs were going to lose to the Lakers after the 1st quarter, but how about the fans? 1/3 of them were Laker Kobe fans cheering for the Lakers. A lot of band wagoners in the bay area, good thing this forum has none…I think.
Just got back from the Lakers blog.
Seems like they think our commentators suck just as much as we think theirs suck.

Actually we quite liked their commentary tonight
they were all over us and mentioned how great an unstoppable we were .
Many Laker fans dislike our color guy Stu Lantz but he is 5x better than most of the other guys arund the L. No one compares to the late great Chick Hearn but we make due with what we got
It turns out there's another reason why the Lakers showed no mercy:
In their last game, Knicks @ Lakers, gameflow, the Knicks were down by 25, Lakers went into garbage time, Knicks went on an 11-0 run to be down only 14, forced starters Kobe and Artest back into the game to close the game. Lakers ultimately won by only 10.
Did everyone hear what Barnett said, regarding Kobe/Jack
Kobe told him, “Next time I play JAck, I’m looking to drop 50” HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I was at this game
Dude, I hate Bay Area Faker fans. Strike that – I loathe Bay Area Faker fans.
That guy yelling behind the bench
was hilarious. I wish he was cheering for the opposing team at all Laker games. He was pretty spot on in his commentary and most of his observations were very accurate not to mention very funny.
