*POSTPONED* We Believe Team vs Current Team: Confirmed! (Update 10/20)
Tickets supposed to go on sale later this week.
The SJ Event Center only holds 4,600 for a basketball event...
Still the We Believe team w/o Baron? link
Tickets go on sale Monday, the 17th according to ticketmaster. Guess not!
Ticketmaster
The game is going to be on November 5th. I hope that means Baron can make it now. Tickets supposedly going on sale today at 12PM. We'll see if that holds. It didn't...they go on sale Friday, the 21st @ 12PM now.
From Steinmentz - "At last count, expected to play were: Stephen Curry, Charlie Bell, Dorell Wright, Jeremy Lin, Jeremy Tyler, Jason Richardson, Kelenna Azubuike, Matt Barnes and Anthony Morrow.
Baron Davis wrote on Twitter he wasn’t involved in the game, and it’s unknown about players such as Monta Ellis, Stephen Jackson and David Lee." - link

Morrow’s confirmed, but he was neither on We Believe nor is he on the current squad? It’d be cool to see him play with these guys, but his participation seems a bit out of place. Also good to see that Buike’s knees are back in good health, or at least well enough to play these pickup games.
Supposedly they might get former warriors from neither team to fill out the rosters. I heard guys like Jamal Crawford, Arenas, and Diogu may be playing.
Awesome. With those guys playing with Baron, Monta, and StackJack, this game will be loaded with so much low efficiency offense that it’ll look like both sides are playing “good” D.
TV or Web Broadcasting please?
I’m in SO Cal, help! Would be sweet if this was to be filmed somehow or even broadcasted. I think NBA tv or espn would be smart to pick this up.
NBAtv is not happening lol
pretty sure ESPN has no interest in jeopardizing its standing with the owners by broadcasting this game. same goes for even comcast. hard to imagine it making it to any major channel that’s ever broadcast basketball. it would be cool though. hopefully it will be broadcasted online somewhere.

Brownie13's right
Here’s an update from Matt when someone asked him about it:
Would CSN be able to telecast the charity game or is there some type of lockout rules against it? –Daniel, Livermore, Calif.
I talked to Ted Griggs, the main man here at Comcast SportsNet Bay Area, and he said he believes — without checking, mind you — that the network could broadcast the game if it wanted. Now, whether it wants to is another story. At this point it doesn’t appear CSN Bay Area wants to carry the game, although it has not been ruled entirely out. But even if CSN Bay Area wanted to do that game, it would likely start a back and forth with the Warriors and the league that might end with a "no-go" on broadcasting it. – Matt S.
My best advice
Move to the bay area ASAP

I wanna go
Where can you get tickets?
How much?
A We Believe team without Baron?
I hope he plays, Matt Barnes is tryin to convince him. Not sure which team ill root for to be honest.. BD and JRich are my favourite Warriors.
PFortyy :)
'11 Champs!
I agree, we need Baron
His tweet about not being involved in it came off kind of bad though. He doesn’t seem interested in coming back to the bay…
"FYI, I have no involvement in this Bay Area game I’m hearing about," Davis wrote. "I’ve heard my name mentioned but I am NOT involved."
Sounds like he's bitter about it
The Autumn wind is a Raider
Pillaging just for fun
He'll knock you 'round and upside down
And laugh when he's conquered and won.
Sounds like they couldn't pay him enough

Right?
I was just gonna say, why would this guy need money? You would think that he left on good terms, and he was thankful playing in the Bay, which revived his career. Even after all the stuff that happened afterward, people here still appreciate what he did for the franchise.
Hopefully he realizes it’s for a good cause.
It smells like hope in this mug
I bet BD is 20-30 lbs overweight and knows he will embarrass himself
Lets be honest…. It’s Baron.
Gosh, one of the biggest wastes of talent over the last decade. All-star level when motivated.
if the current squad loses.......
than we are all going to be pretty pissed at mullin……..
It's lonely being the only Warriors fan at UMass :(
mad at Mullin? i thought it was a combination of Rowell/Nelson/Cohan who messed up the We Believe team
by DJxREMARKABLE on Oct 13, 2011 4:54 PM PDT up reply actions
Cohan mostly
Wanted JRich’s contract gone, or else we couldn’t keep monta/Biedrins. Wouldn’t sign off on Baron Davis extension. From their it snowballed. Rowell was just his hatchet man.
Although, i guess hindsight shows it was mostly good decision, still….
Riight...
Yeah, Brandon Wright worked out really well for us. And we used that trade exception for.. lining Cohan’s pockets. It was not a good decision.
Baron has proven that he will play hard if there’s something to play for. He lost his motivation when he signed with the Clippers only to see Brand leave.
The trade was used to bring in a lanky tweener, the first of three in a row. Not only was devloping a SF a low priority for the Warriors at the time, but even without J-Rich, and with Barnes’s game being off from the passing of his grandmother, the team was very competitive. Cohan and Rowell proved their priorities by not using the exception and then kicking Baron out.
If you’re going to make the argument of Baron not playing up to expectations meaning that breaking up We Believe was the right move, then you also have to consider that Wright did NOTHING, and Biedrins has unfortunately also been a disappointment – meaning that those were not the right moves to be made.

def need to stay updated on this.
even with just the confirmed players, i’m excited. wonder how much it will cost…
http://nbawarriors.wordpress.com/
No updates yet..
As of October 17th at 10:15, nothing about when tickets go on sale, but there is a link on ticketmaster. Tickets look to be between $20-$100, but the on sale date is greyed out..
I guess this isn’t important enough to make the main article section?

it was supposed to go on sale at 10:00am...
kinda sucks it hasn’t yet
You know I spit technique to the freshest freak
Gimme a call you will see results in just a week

cheapest seats have jumped in price
they’re now 25 (+ fee)
ugh..
Plus $10 in ticketmaster fees. Seriously, even for charity events those assholes have to charge a third of the ticket price? What service do they provide? They host a damn website. I would rather drive and spend that money on gas then give it to Ticketmaster.

Hmm
I dunno why they didn’t go on sale this morning.
This is what it looked like Friday night.
That info was gone as of last night..

very annoyed…

Hurry Up!!!
I want seats! And I am annoyed TicketMaster is charging so much without providing any updates!
I called the Event Center Box Office
They said that the event is happening, but they’re still finalizing ticket stuff. There should be some sort of update on Ticketmaster before tickets go on sale. You can go to the box office to avoid the $10 “convenience” charge.
by Ice Watter In His Veins! on Oct 17, 2011 2:13 PM PDT reply actions
You have to physically go there
They don’t do over the phone ticket sales. There was something about faxing, but that seems like a major hassel and I’m not sure that applies to normal ticket sales.
by Ice Watter In His Veins! on Oct 17, 2011 2:36 PM PDT up reply actions
Did the game get postponed to 11/5???
Ticketmaster lists 11/5 as the date
Where are you seeing this?
Yeah, I just called Ticketmaster.. they said it got postponed, but they haven’t updated the website yet. Where do you see that ticket sales are at 12?
by Ice Watter In His Veins! on Oct 19, 2011 10:19 AM PDT reply actions
Just called the box office
You’re right. I’m thinking of driving to the box office now.

Ticketmaster now says tix don’t go on sale to general public until noon, Friday the 21st. WTF is up with them…this is the 3rd time they changed it today!
Sooooo
Who thinks this event will get cancelled if the lockout gets lifted anytime soon?
Why?
Is there a reason to think the lockout will get lifted anytime soon?
by Ice Watter In His Veins! on Oct 19, 2011 12:12 PM PDT up reply actions
Nope
But I’m just optimistic that they are actually sitting in a room for hours, not going on radio shows, and not storming off.
Newest update
Tix will go on sale to the public at NOON on Friday, 10/21.
There will be 4 types of tickets:
$100 / $60 / $40 / $25
To buy tix, you have 3 options:
1) Buy in person directly at the box office there. No service charge.
2) Fax in your order. Service charge of $4 for the entire order (not per ticket). You won’t be able to select your seats though. You will be given the best available seats for whatever ticket price you choose.
3) Buy from Ticketmaster and pay the ~$10 service charge PER ticket
If you have questions, the number to the box office there is 408-924-6333
Forgot to mention earlier…
If you are faxing in your order and there are people standing in line at the box office, all the people physically there will have priority.
service charge
The $10 service charge is actually for the cheap seats. If you go for the more expensive tickets, they’ll charge $16.
by Ice Watter In His Veins! on Oct 19, 2011 4:11 PM PDT up reply actions
yeah....WTF
Postponed ’til Monday at noon now. They need to stop doing this. This makes it hard for anyone that plans to go buy the tix there in person.
