PrintGolden State Warriors at Cleveland Cavaliers, Mar 8, 2011 4:00 PM PST
B Diddy runs the city....of CLEVELAND?!?!?!?
Warriors (27-35) at Cavaliers (12-50) Tip-Off: 4:00pm | CSN Bay Area | KNBR 1050 SB Nation Blog Buddy:
Fear the Sword
Baron Davis...I must admit, that man was one of my faves back in our "We Believe" run. Really though, how could you NOT like this guy? A castaway from another team, traded for peanuts, came over here with low expectations and ran the show.
Kinda reminds you of SJax too, right? But we'll leave that discussion for another day.
Point is - look at where we are and look were B Diddy are. I don't want to play the "what if" game, so we'll leave it at...maybe we're both better off without each other?
Let's face it, Baron must love being in Cleveland. I hear it's a big market so he can pursue his movie career. Also, I heard through the grapevine that they have the best owner in major league sports.
But enough about B Diddy and his life in Cleveland...let's focus on today's game!
I hear's what I know
- The Cleveland Cavaliers are by far the worst team in the NBA
- They went from being the best team to the worst team in one year
- They tied a record for most consecutive losses in a sport
- The Warriors are awful on the road
- How quickly Ekpe Udoh and Stephen Curry will be benched
- How many minutes VladRad is going to play today
- If Baron will care about tonight's game and give it his all

i'd bring back b diddy any day of the week
he’d be the best 6th man and mentor for curry. itd be so entertaining
It's lonely being the only Warriors fan at UMass :(
I wouldn’t want him to sit on the bench with Curry and Lin while Acie Law runs up and down the court.

One word… HUGE CONTRACT… okay, that’s two. You get my point, though.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
i really think that baron misses us enough that he'd come back for cheap
honestly, we were the only taste of glory for him in a career where he has pretty much played for the worst teams possible.
i’d take him back if he wanted it
It's lonely being the only Warriors fan at UMass :(
even with his current contract?

if you're on Twitter..
… Eor…uh… I mean, Steinmetz and MT2 are having a back and forth on the subject of Baron as back up PG at this very moment. Steinmetz would be for it (since he’s down on Curry) and MT2 is against.
@gswscribe
Marcus Thompson
Baron & Monta said if the Warriors didn’t trade @jrich23 they’d have won a title by now, or at least been in hunt for one. Agree?

warriors had a deep backcourt yes
but the fact that when biedrens got hurt(ronny was always hurt) maggette and harrington were playing center.
then when oracle became the d-league correctional facility they were relying on chris hunter and anthony tolliver
what i dont understand is why they basically traded baron for maggette let monta be the point when they sat crawford on the bench and then draft curry and trade maggette and crawford for nothing
and trading jason richardson and stephen jackson for nothing. if the warriors got any return for anybody from the we believe era that didnt leave in the david lee sign and trade they would be in so much better shape
also i still despise troy murphy and mik dunleavy jr. for destroying the warriors cap and them being unable to keep gil, tawn, and hughes. if the warriors had a competent front office last decade they may have had won a title

I like how you gave Curry minutes at the 2. With a dominant pg like (good) Baron, Curry would get some nice shots at the 2.

I voted other
If he split the minutes with Curry, or could accept a bench role in helping Curry along, than he’d be awesome for the team.
i said other
because you cant trust his work ethic
he has to be willing top come off the bench
he needs to stop chucking up threes
needs to become a vegetarian and preserve those knees and back

Can we all just give up on the Baron discussions and come together to hate Elton Brand?!
If that dude had just told Baron he was about to leave he would have signed here for an acceptable contract and we would have had a chance to let the whole thing play out. Baron didnt want to be a Clipper just to go to L.A. He thought he was going to have one solid teammate to build with.
F Brand forever
Meh… Baron is a dive. It was inevitable that we’d get drama eventually with him, one way or another. He was tired of playing here, obviously and probably would have started playing badly at some point, like he did with the Hornets.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
He is a Diva.
But a happy and motivated Diva is not to hard to deal with. Considering we had won 42, then 48 games in the West and had a semi-young core around some still-young veterans, it’s not crazy to think the success would have continued. Baron doesn’t cause trouble when things are going well. He just doesn’t.
Where do we go from here?
depressing
if you are feeling bad about the current state of our beloved Dubs, just go poke around on the Cavs blog…look at their fan confidence poll on the front page, count up the number of comments…ouch
Tonight we are up against a franchise that has fully embraced the tank

summarize please
"There he goes. One of god's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
Saying Monta has a right to be calling out his teammates for being soft, they’re saying the other players aren’t playing on par with him, yadda yadda
They are blabbering
about PPG.
Not shooting efficiency or how many turnovers he’s had on this roadtrip.

Smart says you're not supposed to win any game
Every other coach of a losing team says “It’s the Warriors, let’s AT LEAST win this game.”
Don't worry guys
This team is bonding really well and Smart is trying his hardest and is already doing a better job than Nelson.
Well time to go redbox

I have to say, I’ve been getting stressed this game, until Monta sat. He’s been so bad lately, and it makes me feel worse that Smart is convinced he’s awesome. It was good to have him sit in favor of Curry. That felt good.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
Also, it made me feel good to see Biedrins playing fairly well. He started out badly, but he stepped it up. Looked good out there.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

"If you're ever in a fair fight, then your tactics suck." ಠ_ಠ
He seems very determined to me, still. I just think something is off for him. Not as bad as Biedrins’ brain, but I think he may be regressing to last year’s mindset, which is obviously the wrong mindset.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
Then he’s an idiot. He was never helping the team that much himself, gambling so much on defense and how he’s been shooting too much and badly since the allstar break.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
Tired of losing it seems
I can feel it, I think he wants someone to step up with him when he’s on fire so his 41 or so is not for nothing. Also lets be real, we have a soft/wussy team outside of Monta, Udoh and Thornton. When we were good we were the exact opposite. I think he along with others wants us to be tougher overall. Not just inside but mentally

Well, we know he can pull down boards against good teams, when his head is in it. Even against a bad team, that can help his confidence and bring him back. He should be a decent center, if he can do that.

I care about his defensive boards. He ought to get at least 6 per 36, which is still way below average. Some games, he doesn’t do that, though.

Ugh… where is Curry and Udoh. I don’t get it. It’s time to fix this, Smart. For once, stop being completely insane and do something rational.

I always want Udoh, when Biedrins isn’t playing well. He’s a great defender. I don’t mind him sitting occasionally, but when I see our defense breaking down, I want him in. Like right now.

Only about 50% of the time. Biedrins was holding it down well earlier and pulling down boards. I was happy then.

Reggie probably reminded Smart that he’s not the f’ing coach for too much longer.
by ohcleverhansyou on Mar 8, 2011 6:02 PM PST up reply actions
lol Perhaps so… I hope he won’t be coach much longer. He has such poor judgment of who is helping the team and who isn’t, it’s sad.

I wonder if Monta has beef with Eyenga?
Man…when i watched the Dubz vs. Cavz at the Roaracle this season…i didn’t know who Eyenga was. He was pretty impressive and exciting to watch that night.
I remember Monta had a breakaway easy layup but Eyenga came outta nowhere and blocked the ish outta him. I was stunned.
You guys remember that?

Its losses like these that get coaches like Smart fired
lol… I thikn Smart is fired at the end of the year either way. It’s missing the playoffs alone and the obvious fact that Smart’s rotations are really bad will get him fired.

Well, when you only one decent rebounding big for most of the game, what do you expect?
Crazy that Biedrins can’t rebound all of a sudden, but of course he’s not in the game anyway.
Fireball
BDub’s Passes are too beastly for the Cavs, their Forwards (Jamison+Hickson) can’t handle that shit!!!
What are you talking about? Udoh is manly man on defense. Curry is the smartest player on the floor with Lee in 2nd place. Well, maybe Baron. That dude has good bball IQ, too.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
Why is fitz so happy bout lees double doubles?
Thats Lee’s JOB
I told you I warmed that thang up, man.
Good job, Lee. I’m pretty happy with him lately, despite his poor defense, other than good rebounding.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is Monta Ellis when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
I agree...
…but I can’t remember seeing any player complain so much on nearly every call that doesn’t go his way.
I get so tired of listening to Fitz talk about FT disparities, like it gives us an excuse. We don’t get to the line, mostly because of our personnel and/or our playing style. It’s not due to refs so much.

If you can only pick two out of Ellis, Curry and Davis, who would you pick?
In the short-run, I’d like to see how either Davis and Ellis (now) or Davis and Curry would do.

ouch , good lucky guarding 2's
"There is nothing like a wise phrase or quote to help convince others that your decision makes sense." - Anon
"If you're ever in a fair fight, then your tactics suck." ಠ_ಠ
You could kind of say that about any combination of those guys
Baron guarded 2’s well when he wanted too, which wasn’t majority of the time. I think Monta is capable too, but he’s got to push himself if he really wants to.
I'd go Ellis and Curry

Wow
At game close, GSOM game thread, going on 740 comments. Fear the sword, 3.
Lol. I read the first comment
“…JJ can not guard D.Lee. I’m seeing a 25+ point, 16+ rebound night outta Lee.
AP on Ellis? That’s gonna be fugly. Ellis gets 30+
Last but not least, since AP is gonna get blown by on every play, the wings will try to provide help defense. Steph Curry hits wide open shots and Wright will look better than he really is.
Go Cavs!”

Line on Law: 17 minutes, 2 points (1-4), NO ASSISTS, 0 rebounds, 0 steals!!!!!
Reggie got 3 minutes at end of the 1st quarter! Don’t get it. Is he in the doghouse? Why?
Maybe Ellis got some inspiration from talking to Baron. Reminded him of We Believe days
And now Monta is in the Locker room giving a pep talk and trying to get the guys pumped up. That would be nice.
Looks like Curry killed it....
…so benched next game? :/
Good to see Ellis and Curry both have pretty good games at the same time…at least as far as I can tell from the box score.
Anyone surprised we beat the Cavs when the right players were in during the 4th quarter?

by macdreboi on Mar 8, 2011 7:33 PM PST via mobile reply actions
What to take from this game:
Smart is still in love with Law, he did not play Reggie (very much) for whatever reason.
Al Thornton (TCG) great so far.
David Lee quietly putting up some double-double’s, still overpaid.
Monta doesn’t think playoffs out of reach, wonder who else thinks so.
Warriors are not the worst team in the league.
Golden State's backcourt was too much for Cleveland's guards to handle. When the Cavs did prevent Ellis from getting off a shot, the Warriors simply swung the ball to Curry, who has scored more than 20 points in five of his past six games.AP story:
Well, that’s two pieces of the puzzle. Lee getting double-doubles is the third. Reggie is the fourth piece that would add another potent option. Smartstill does not get it! Maybe by the end of the season he may try it. By then, we will be lucky to have 35 wins. Dumb!
terribly coached game, but it's the cavs so we still won lol
reggie only 3 min??
acie law is awful as usual.
al thorton >> vlad rad…i wish he’d just eat his minutes up…vlad was pathetic other than his two blocks.
curry was great.
ellis played great within himself.
udoh played great in the limited minutes coach allowed him to play.
You know I spit technique to the freshest freak
Gimme a call you will see results in just a week

Is there a heaven for a Rap Cat, let's talk
Hawk, I have had it with Smart's dumb-a** bs! I just want to see Reggie-Ellis-Curry-Lee-Udoh
start one time! Have been saying it since last year I want to see Curry at PG with Ellis and Reggie in play together this year. Has not happened yet. I quit on Smart.
the minute distributions are disgusting
Can’t wait till next season when we have a new coach…clearly Smart will be gone, especially with Lacob commiting to using statistical analysis…stats crush Smart.

....so do results and lack of flexible creativity!
….measured by any explicit or implicit criteria!!!!!!!lol
If Bobby Knight had the talent that Smart has to work with,
he would never need a last second shot to win a NCAA championship! I thought it was unrealistic for anyone to expect this team to make it to the playoffs in Smart’s first season. I even supported all the rotational experimentation crap for over half of the season. I had a reasonable expectation that he would have figured some things out by now and that this team would be on an improvement curve (that’s up). Unfortunately, it appears that Smart is real slow in figuring some things out that are intuitively obvious to the most casual observer. In his stubborn determination to not stick with his young, developing players, and desperation to win, he has lost the opportunity for continuous maturation of the team. Worse, I am willing to bet that allthis is screwing up the self-confidence of this great, young talent, as well as the confidence that they may have in his coaching ability.
