OPEN THREAD: Warriors @ Hornets

Golden State Warriors at New Orleans Hornets, Mar 22, 2009 4:00 PM PDT


Nameforge_medium
Some comic strip I found with Andris and CP3

Warriors: 25-44
Hornets: 43-25
Tip-Off: 4:00 PM PST
TV: CSN+
Radio: KNBR 680

 

I don't think the Warriors will have so much to smile about when they visit the Big Easy tonight. Playing the Hornets never gives anyone any warm fuzzy feelings.

The Warriors have been one of the worst road teams in the league and I don't expect that to change regardless of who's healthy or not. The Chris Paul, David West, and Tyson Chandler 3-some is difficult for anyone to beat.

BUT remember back in January? Warriors 91, Hornets 87 in New Orleans. Great road win. Just don't expect that same result tonight.

 

Predictions

  • Hornets by 12
  • Chris Paul triple double
  • Brandan Wright does not repeat what he did last game. He either scores less than 10 points or grabs less than 10 rebounds.
  • Jamal Crawford wears an Armani suit

Man, you're so negative FJ

Can’t you see the potential?

We still believe!!

LOL

i see the potential to suck

by Fantasy Junkie on Mar 22, 2009 4:01 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Look on the bright side

Unlike the typical Warriors draft pick, this potential is actually being realized.

by Atma Brother ONE on Mar 22, 2009 4:03 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Which one?

Brandan Wright or Anthony Randolph or Anthony Morrow or Rob Kurz?

We still believe!!

by R Dizzle on Mar 22, 2009 4:40 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I’m thinking more along the lines of the Mike Dunleavy, POB, and Ike variety.

Peja and Chandler won't play I think (injured)

So that’s a plus for us.

Don’t want your 30 minutes to have gone to waste. I’d like to read what you wrote

A copy was saved in my profile. It was going to be an "off-the-bench" open thread.

Warriors (W-L): 25-44
Lakers (W-L): 43-25

When: 4:00 PM PDT
TV: CSN+
Radio: KNBR 680

Season series:
Game 1 @ Warriors: L (103-108, Oct 29, 2008)
Game 2 @ Hornets: W (91-87, Jan 30, 2009)
Game 3 @ Hornets: ? (Tonight!)
Game 4 @ Warriors: – (April 3, 2009)

Tonight, the Warriors face the Hornets in New Orleans. Last month, the Hornets traded Tyson Chandler to the Thunder for financial reasons. The Thunder’s doctor examined and sent him back to the Hornets with a note on his forehead that said “DAMAGED CONTENTS, RETURN TO SENDER”. Since his return, the Hornets were 9-5 until a sore left ankle knocked him out for 2 games. He is questionable tonight.

For the Warriors, Jamareo Davidson is expected to undergo season ending surgery for a stress fracture. Marco’s not with the team so he can see a foot doctor. Biedrins has been out already with another ankle injury. Anthony Randolph is questionable with his strained groin injury.

The last time we played the Hornets, the game was a grind ’em out ugly affair, but we held on long enough to win. Without Davidson, Biedrins, and assuming no Randolph, the Warriors are a little short on the size department. I expect Don Nelson to either pull out Kurz to back up Turiaf or go with more small ball for his second unit.

The Warriors battle the Hornets! Hope you enjoy this off-the-bench open thread.

i thought

my contributions to any basketball blog isn’t so necessarry -so i quit that habit 4 about month

i was still watching games a bit (just second half or like that) and lazy reading GSoM -and i was still reading all recaps and still watching all highlights

just when you wake up at night just to see some basketball game and your team is still losing -this ruins your day after day and somehow got some impact on your profesional life :)

so -i was still there but not as much as before

but bad habits coming back :)

Yeah I was wondering why there was a huge dip in GSoM’s traffic from Latvia.

by Atma Brother ONE on Mar 22, 2009 6:00 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

huge dip in GSoM’s traffic from Latvia.

-most likely it’s more related to AB injury stories and Dubs playoff chances
