Bad Season, But Feeling Optomistic, and then some
The moment we heard about Monta's "What it is money" mishap and Baron's departure last summer, I expected this team to be serious challengers - for the ping pong balls in the summer of 2009. Immune to dismal days the past 25+ years, I shrugged my shoulders and thought to myself, "At least they're still exciting to watch."
So after watching most games this year on Comcast HD (super sweet but what's with Jaymee Sire's chin???), I took note of the block parties hosted by Andris, Ronny, and the ThWIN Towers - that's Randolph and Wright in case you're a little slow today. When they were healthy enough playing with each other, the interior defense got better. Oftentimes though, one of them (especially Ronny) gets hung up to dry challenging a shot when a non-big teammate of his forgets to play defense. And then we forget to grab the rebound. But that should be an easy fix for next season assuming Nellie is replaced by someone else.
Offensively, there's been a bunch of pleasant surprises. We've got a pure, exciting shooter in Morrow. We've got a consistent driver which usually leads to much needed FTs in Maggette. We've got Mr. Reliable in Kelenna, who seems to do everything right. Andris has shown some offensive growth. Crawford is also a good addition to the club, just needs to be more consistent though. Another D-Leaguer Watson is a big surprise. So many times when he takes an ill-advised shot I say "Oh no" just to see the ball go in. I love Turiaf, Andris, and the ThWIN Towers on the offensive end as well since they don't mind picking up some garbage. Oh we also have Monta. Not too excited with Bellinelli though since there's not enough to see and make judgement on.
So really, there's a good group of talented players. We just need more bangers like Milsap and an actual NBA star in the off-season. Maybe we can replace Nellie with Smart also???
Anyway, I'm really starting to learn Photoshop lately...the graphics on this site are sweet so I thought I'd contribute a little. I'm a self-proclaimed Tony.psd disciple. Enjoy!

I'm optimistic like every season,
but my friends don’t want to renew. DAMN IT! This Warriors team and current management are ruining my relationship with my friends. Damn you, Rowell!

Hey, come to think of it, if Crawford is on the poll, so should Kurz and Davidson!

He got stapled to Wright

There is NOTHING wrong with Jaymee Sire's chin

She’s the one in the pink, if you don’t know… How can you think there is anything wrong with her?
