Mark Jackson
On Tonight's Game:
"We defended, we didn't make excuses, and we didn't get frustrated. It was just a great performance overall. We had guys individually that fought it out. It won't show up on the stat sheet but I couldn't be more pleased with our effort on the road."

On Monta Ellis:
"He's gotten frustrated lately because he has been physically abused at times and not getting to the line. But the great players find a way in spite of adversity, in spite of not getting the benefit of the doubt whistle to still gut it out and I'm glad the way he handled it tonight"

On The Second Half:
"Well, we realized that either the conclusion would be that Charlotte, Detroit, and all these teams that we're better than beat us we're not better than them or we'd have to find a way to start winning these ball games. I think the guys felt challenged and first and foremost we are a defensive-minded team. We started to get stops and it affected our offense."
David Lee
On Tonight's Game:
"We made a concerted effort to not only get out of the gate as well but start that third quarter when it was neck and neck; try to make the little plays especially on the defensive end and we were able to do that tonight and we were able to push the lead late third quarter, early fourth."

On Team's Defense:
"When we've played well this year we've gotten victories. That's been our staple; is getting stops on defense and rebounding the basketball. We haven't had solid first (quarter). We haven't done that and we haven't done that well on the road this year. It was something we had to focus on tonight; we knew we had to get that done in order to beat Detroit."

On The Play Of The Team's Bench:
"Our bench gave us a lot of good minutes tonight. Ekpe (Udoh) played unbelievable and so did Brandon (Rush) and so did Charles (Jenkins) and Nate (Robinson). That's what we need on a back-to-back on the road. Starters, a lot of the time are going to be pretty tired and we were tonight. Starters put some good minutes but our bench really carried us."
Dorell Wright
On Tonight's Game:
"Guys came in were very focused. We played well in the third quarter. We got the opportunity to jump on them before they were able to get the crowd into the game or anything. It was very important to win these type of games. Pistons are definitely a talented team with all the guys they have but it was a much needed win for us especially coming off the bad loss we did yesterday. We looked at this trip before we took it as a opportunity to get back on track. With us playing the top teams in the NBA how we've been playing, there's no excuse why we should lose to a team by 20 points after coming off a big game."

Interesting Tweets

(during the game)
Rusty_SFChron: Two nights in a row, Monta Ellis banged his surgically repaired knee. Each time, he's smacked the scorer's table and stayed in the game.

Notes

- No interesting notes to add tonight.


What's next?

- We get a day off before continuing on with this 4 games in 5 nights road trip against beatable teams. Remember these starts will be in the midafternoon for us.
- We should be getting Stephen Curry back on the floor on Tuesday.

Thanks for all the poop, IQ! You pulled it off! What a Great Team Win; Bounce-back win on the road for the Warriors!

Big men won the battle inside. Guards rocked steady. Big men: Rebounds- 43-32! Points in the Paint: 48-32! Team shot 50% on 2PTs! (sucked on 3pts). Assists by all. Rebounds by all. Steals by all. Udoh solid! Wight with a double-double! Monta efficient! Rush clutch! Jenkins solid! Nate a spark plug! Leadership award to David Lee!

I'm looking at how the lottery will likely play out

And if things go as expected (us getting better with Steph + late season run for no reason) we will likely just inch ourselves outside of our pick . The good thing about this is we finally get it over with and end the draft pick madness

The horrible horrible horrawful part of this is that this draft class is outstanding. If we just barely inched into our spot we could still land Gilchrist who is basically this years Kawhi Leonard except way more skilled (Wallace comparisons).

Ugh

This is a terrible year to just get this pick given up thing over with, rather do it next year if the prospects come out as expected . I just don’t see how we can look at this situation and not think that drafting high is the best solution. Thats how OKC became so good, same with the Bulls , Grizzlies etc

Prospects dont always work out

Look at the Wizards they have ALOT if young “potential” talent and their terrible. The bulls were good ( 2 playoff appearances )before they got Derrick Rose ( Hinrich,Gordon,Salmons,Deng, Tyrus Thomas, Chandler, Eddy Curry, Sefalosha) were there before Rose was drafted and OKC lucked out in having good peices to trade for draft picks that turned into pretty good players.. Point is it doesn’t always work out and drafting potential won’t necessarily make you a good team. The 2012 draft is going to be deep because of the international talent combined with college talent. The college game right now isn’t that good plus with all the people drooling over Kentucky’s players, Sullinger ,Duke and North Carolina, the dubs could still get Thomas Robinson out of Kansas , KU players stay getting overlooked

are you in favor of tanking or not?

because your first point was that the draft is all about luck. then your second point is about the best draft players and how we can get them.

tbh, i do agree the class is good ONLY because most of them waited and played instead of enduring the lockout. However, watching them, none really screams to me. They all seem pretty good, but not to the point where we give up on our team. Tanking also tanks chemistry and ruining the core chemistry is devastating and can be irreparable.

barnes is atheletic and smart.

would be cool if we can get him, but we would have to out tank wizards and even though they seem to be stacked with young great talent….they don’t know how to utilize them. Its a shame really. I also think there are better options but i’m not really knowledgeble about college bball so i’ll refrain.

We wouldn't have to out tank them

Davis and Lamb will be higher picks then Barnes at this point, we will not be bad enough to just put ourselves in a good position for any of them. We will need a lucky ball bounce no matter where we finish (likely outside the top 7 knowing our luck)

It sucks cause we should just get this pick thing over with but since were the W’s it has to happen during a great draft

Well someone has to get him so why not us? Remember god helps those who help themselves, if we can’t figure out how to save our draft pick we don’t deserve to get better. We just need management with the balls to pull it off. Real no excuses tanking would show a commitment to winning that hasn’t been seen here since the SJax /Dunleavey trade.

Nice win for our boys

Lee definitely gets WW, but he needs to back off on some of those stupid fouls. I’d rather have him play straight up D than just concede the foul when a guy catches it under the basket.

Monta looked good tonight too. I still don’t love some of the decisions he makes, but dude has got some serious heart. And while I’m on the subject, I’ll take Nate and his crappy shooting percentage.

And I guess my dead horse this year is Udoh, I still think he deserves more floor time

This game was way closer than I would have liked, but whatever…here’s hoping we can put together two consecutive wins (and that no one notices it was against two of the worst teams in the NBA)

He’s only picked “low” potential players and has made a huge mistake with Lee’s contract. If he really wanted to be here we didn’t have to give him so much

relatively

we paid for less for Lee than the Bulls did for Boozer

considering Boozer was joining what was supposed to become a contender, and going to a larger market, i’d say we didn’t do any worse than they did

now, Boozer is probably a bit more of an impact player (or at least, was before joining the Bulls), but the only PF who wasn’t overpaid for that summer might have been Bosh (Amare got $100M)

I don’t like the deal, and I was never in favor of making the trade, but when you compare it to other deals it’s not that bad.

And you really never will know who is offering as much as we did. He did have other teams with interest, but the specifics will probably never be known, because its not like he was a RFA. There wasn’t any set offer amount out there for everyone to look at.

To this point,

Larry Riley’s 2 biggest failures have been not getting the Amare deal done on draft night in ’09, and not pulling the trigger on CP3 this off-season. Either would have netted us a big-name player, which is really the first step to relevancy in the NBA.

Not everyone here would agree with that, because both trades would have likely involved Stephen Curry, but it would have been a big change in the way we do things around here.

not getting the amare deal done wouldn't have been as big of a deal

if he hadn’t given stuff away to make the trade possible and then decide to back out afterwards. he either needed to not pursue it or follow it all the way through.

Because my opinion of Amare

is much higher than yours.

He’s having a bad season thus far, but up through last season, the only PFs better than him were Dirk, Pau, and Duncan.

That puts him in the top 5 or 6 of big men I’d most want, depending on Andrew Bynum’s health. With Duncan also on the decline, Amare might be more valuable now, so that’s top 5.

its not a short-sighted goal

you’re not going anywhere if you’re not in the playoffs, and you’re not on anyone’s radar if you’re not in the playoffs. we could have had an opportunity to make it there 3 out of 4 years and really change the perception of our franchise. we didn’t, and we’re back to where we were pre-WE BELIEVE

it’s not about the one appearance, it’s that it leaves open the possibilities for more

THIS

Who knows, maybe SJack stays and so does Amare with Andris never slumping , Nellie teaches Monta how to be a PG earlier , we don’t sign Maggette…. So many possibilities

Someone should make a gif of it

Then we could all laugh

If you're watching a blowout, you can pass the time by counting the double teapots.

Is Dorell addicted to pump fakes now?

He’s like a drug addict who can’t quit.

D. Lee

Looked good all night until his 6th foul…..Glad the W’s won, if they can’t take care of business…then they are a team that should just be "excused " from the conversation of the playoffs.

Lee was a boss today.

I’m not complaining. The offense flows much better with him having the ball as much as Monta.

yup

take away one or two dumb fouls, and Lee starts to look like he’s almost worth the money.

Yeah, you got me

I'm indifferent about this game.

After watching the Warriors so far this year and how prone they are at being blown out and the roster we have (and injuries), I guess I want the Warriors to rather lose and be in a position for a high draft pick.(tank) I know my buddy who I was watching the game with, a Pistons fan, was somewhat cheering for the Warriors to lose so they could continue rebuilding. (Keep it close but still lose) Guess I feel the same way as of now, unless they can pull off a winning streak and put themselves back in contention against the once again strong western conference.

Steph got a baby on the way?

Yeah.

He’ll need a good nightclub to raise the baby in.

I also heard Fesenko would be a Warrior. Things change.

Where are you getting this stuff from? Ask them to pinky swear if they are telling the truth….

don't hassle him too much guys

I think he has demonstrated that he does in fact have some sort of inside source.

It’s no shame that some of the expected outcomes don’t come through.
