1:05 min: Mark Jackson Postgame - 2/18
Mark Jackson
On the loss:
"It was the little things, finishing out ball games. The last line of our defense is securing the basketball, and when it mattered most we weren't able to do it. I'm disappointed. It's a tough loss."
“It’s the little things that either win or lose ball games as we continue to find it out. When it matters most, there should be five guys in the paint area chasing down that loose rebound. At the end of the day, Tony Allen wanted it. That’s what winners do.”
On the last play:
"Once again we were in a position to win the ball game and we didn't because of a defensive rebound. That's the disappointing part about it."
On the beginning of the game:
"It's the process. We shouldn't put ourselves in position to have to fight back. They took control of the game, and we started off very sluggish. Give us credit we didn't quit, we didn't lie down. We fought back and took control of the game, and put ourselves in position to win. It's just a tough way to lose."
David Lee
On the loss:
"Certainly, our record is not as good as we want it to be. We have lost a lot of close games. The positive is we are not far off negative is we have let a lot of games slip away. Everyone on this team wants to win. The matter is we didn't make the play, and the Grizzlies came up with the win."
Nate Robinson
On the loss:
"We have to find a way to get the job done; it's not going to be perfect. We have to find a way regardless of what it is. We shot ourselves in the foot tonight. Gave the Grizzlies 20 points early, came back and led by 10. Losing is old, we are toward the end of the season, we are scrapping together to get wins. We have to get on it now. Hopefully we will turn the page and get going. I think it was a great game. Tony Allen made great shots to lead the Grizzlies, and we didn't stop him."

I called a better play than Malone did, after Steph could not inbound.
I told Lee, get crazy with it drive the rock and get the block called on Memphis, the refs blew the call.
They also messed up not putting a few seconds back on the clock but hey no excuses we are going to get that 8th seed.

Yeah, I decided to go check the NBA stats to see why the Grizz was rebounding so well. It turns out that they are 4th in getting offensive rebounds.
Damn, that’s crazy.

I'd throw in another lol2nd round pick
But yeah no way Minny do it
Pekovic is throwing up 20/10 left and right next to kevin love, I doubt they wanna go back to Darko as their only center. And they still have beasley and derrick williams at sf.. unless they think Dorell is a good idea at sg. I’d be extremely happy if we actually got a decent center like pek with just dorell+scraps and 2nd round picks though.
This
Pek is killing it right now like he’s an all star and he’s a Khan pick (meaning I doubt Kahn will let him go)

Well the plus side is that we may be locking our center spot up pretty well
Hopefully he’s not just a creation of Rubio’s
Then all we’d need is a legit SF which we could either try and sign or make a big trade for (Curry or Monta for someone and have Klay slide in and start) one

I actually liked the concept of the Lee play
They don’t expect Lee to drive. Unfortunately, he got called for the foul, but that’s why you don’t want big men handling the ball. Maybe have him kick it out earlier or something.
Quick note – even if Gasol had not pushed him in the back, he would have barreled into Conley and Conley would have flopped. Not sure if a block or charge would have been called, but you really shouldn’t risk it.

blame the officials for that. Frankly, we have not gotten many calls going our way in close games. I guess it will level out by the end of the season, but it really hurt us tonight on that last play. I think if I were calling this game, I would have called it on the push by the defensive player, and let the foul line decide the winner.
I just looked at video of that play three times!
Lee definitely got hammered and pushed into Conley as he was trying to pull up for the kick out pass. The ref blew that call big time!
Regardless, Lee should have been shooting that shot, not passing
Forgiveable, but still…ambidextrous bro, take a right hand shot off the backboard there and it would have been unblockable

May have been set up as an option
Shoot or kick out. Only MJ knows for sure. The drive pulled the defense in, and opened up the shooters. Either way, he got hammered as the play developed.
bad refs ruin another basketball game...
as the saying goes, if I got a nickel every time this happened I would be a rich…

The calls went both ways. Or maybe you should try to ref an NBA game and not make a bad call.

is unparalleled. I acknowledge that basketball, specifically the NBA with the most explosive athletes, is the hardest game to call. The failure is so epic, so consistent, it’s as if the three guys looking directly at it are thinking about where they are going to eat later in the night.
Yeah, but a bad call with the game on the line,
does not give the ref the opportunity to even it up with another bad cal! :-)

on that key offensive rebound by Allen
D.Wright was subbed in defensively for Udoh after the clutch free throws put Fools’gold State up by one. Wright was staring at the shot attempt and not attending to his area of the paint, which is where Allen came for the rebound and tip in. Wright was the only one in position to box Allen out, but froze when the shot went up. A curious move, isn’t it, to put Wright in for Udoh ?

I'm gonna key in on the warriors on DReb's.
Wright’s failure to block out looks horrible considering it was the game deciding bucket. I wonder if it’s a team wide deficiency or if our guys don’t come back to board. What I had thought is that we’re just too undersized every night and that our guys just aren’t naturally good rebounders. Lee can’t board all by himself, so the rest of the team has got to secure the ball first before tey can leak out.

another bad part about that play by Wright
was that he wasn’t even really in a position to help. He just took a single step up.
this is such a fundamental error!
Even in high school, I was getting railed on by coach to “stay outta no-man’s land”

We had 11 Offensive Rebounds to their 12. Lee got 7 of ours by his lonesome.
We did not get killed on the offensive glass as I initially thought.
No, but you have to look at the percentages
Warriors shot .427, while the Grizzlies shot .507. That means that there were a lot more offensive rebound opportunities for the Warriors than the Grizzlies, and yet the Grizz had more offensive rebounds.
Just a tip :)

You have to look at missed shots.
We missed 47 shots and had 11 offensive rebounds.
They missed 36 shots and had 12 offensive rebounds
11/47=23.4% This means we offensive rebounded 23.4% of our own misses
12/36 = 33.3%. This means they offensive rebounded 33.3% of their own misses.

I asked you how many shots they took vs. ours precisely for that reason, as you quoted the percentages only in your first response..
I had not looked at the shot opportunities (or the percentages). You realize that if we had shot less than they did, the missed shots( and, rebound opportunity) would be different for the same percentages. Thanks for the tip.
What jumped at me in my intial look at the offensive rebounds we got vs theirs,
was that we did not killed as we had 11 offensive rebounds to get a second chance to score, vs. their 12 offensive rebound possessions to score. In that sense, we did not get killed. Now, if we talk about offensive rebound opportunity, clearly, with the number of shots taken, they had a higher offensive rebound efficiency than we had.

Well, he does occupy that space for a couple of minutes each game at least, so, technically, there is a center there. :-)
I am disappointed Klay has not done well
in the past 2 games in terms of having a big shooting night. Wonder what is up with him. Could have used some 3s tonight from him in a big way.
On a positive note, I did like how the Warriors climbed back in the game. It was a nice feeling to see the other coach upset that his team had blown the huge lead and let the other team back in it, then the usual shoe on the other foot. I do have to say I enjoyed that, although the out come of the game severely mitigated my happiness at that role reversal.
Three point shooters can be very streaky.
If he is going to be a good one, he will find his stride again. Hard to tell, because he is a rookie. They can shoot crappy one night, and go on a tear the next; or, even from one half to the next. That is why guys like Rush and Reggie (last year), are so impressive. To come in cold, sometimes being used very erratically, and deliver at the clip that these guys do, is really awesome.
One the attempted game winner a few games back and tonight with about 2 min left ...
… we saw a clumsy Monta-to-Lee connection. They run a P&R, or simply slide past each other on motion, but Monta is delivering the ball late and a little bit behind Lee, and the result kills the play’s momentum.
Not a huge deal, but one of those little things that adds up over the course of the season. They need to run about a 1000 PnR drills to get the timing of that pass down right.
On another note, I still feel terrible for Jeremy Tyler
I can’t imagine his disappointment that he feels right now, and every loss must reinforce his feeling of making a huge mistake in his life with not going to school. I think he would be in such a different position now rather than a barely there rookie who hardly gets to play and when he does, makes a lot of errors.
It can be hard to live with that regret, although I know I am speculating since I don’t know him. It just seems to go along with the Warriors almost there/if only if/short term over long term framework of operating.
I hope that he can improve and play more.

If you look at the David Lee drive at the end of the game
I don’t think it was a play called for David Lee. I think that he saw the overplay and tried to create by himself. Curry and Rush were in the same spot on the floor, meaning that floor spacing was not important on the play, meaning that they did not expect Lee to drive and pass to the perimeter. Lee was pushed (or body blocked) into Conley by Gasol, but he was also out of control and would have crashed into Conley anyways, forcing the refs to make a call. I think the original play was a Monta iso or something similar, with David Lee handing off the ball to Monta.

After re-watching that play, the call bothers me more because Lee wasn’t even driving into Conley. All the contact was drawn by Gasol and Conley squeezing the path he was trying to take. Really should have been a defensive foul or a no call.
All in all, it really doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things.

He gets hammered on his left back shoulder, and

I assume his point guard mind is still good
Age has probably taken away some of his explosiveness, and maybe a little of his strength. But if he can stick to his point guard duties of poking at the defense and move the ball to the open player or the weak side of the defense, he should be able to help give Jeremy Lin some rest and not hurt the Knicks chances at winning the game.

He is really a clutch player and turns it on in the 4th.
As IQ points out in the dicsussion, above, his shot is for real, and, apparently, Lin is for real. This is now Lin’s team. Davis will help, as will Melo, and JR, but the Knicks will go as far as Lin can carry them.
Lin is an NBA player definitley
5.4 TOs per36 though, ouch. 8.7 assists per 36 though.
Watching the Knicks makes me want Tyson Chandler more than anything though.

Would anyone have imagined a year ago when he was here,
that Jeremy Lin, our practically walk-on rookie, would be having the titanic impact he is having on the NBA and international b-ball today? The story is really huge. National and international media can’t get enough of it. National announcers would be fools not jump on it. The underdog has always held a special pIace in the heart of Americans. I think fans are mature on other teams, understand it, and love it. Our fans are pulling for him too, but, there is a sour taste because of what might have been if we had kept him.
In Toronto, when the Knicks were playing,
the Toronto fans were cheering him on! They have not been to too many cities since he went on this tear, but the phenomenon is repeated everywhere he goes!
The last Ivy League player for the Knicks, was Bill Bradley.
Lin has taken NY by a storm. Braldley was coming off the bench most of his career, and was a high IQ player. He went on to become a US Senator and had a minor Presidential campaign. If Lin has a normal bball career, NY, or, even Mass, has a way of identifying with its sports heroes. Given Lin’s personal attributes of intelligence, humbleness, and down-to-earth Christian approachability, his future is very bright in the public domain.
Yale grad Chris Dudley played for the Knicks in the late 90's
There is an evening coming in/Across the fields, one never seen before,/That lights no lamps. -- Philip Larkin, from "Going"
You are right, I forgot about his stint with the Knicks.
He was well-traveled if I remember correctly. Five or six years, here, I think. Interestingly, both, he and Bradley, went into politics afterwards. (Bradley in NJ, and, Dudley out in Oregon).
Cavs won
That makes us 8th worse in the league now, yes? 1 more to go! lol

You know what would suck?
As if we didn’t already suck. But what would suck is if we tanked enough to get the #7, #6, or #5 lotto spot, and then 1, 2, or 3 teams below us won the ping pong balls, kicking us to the #8 drafting spot, which would mean the Jazz would get it. That would mean that all that tanking would have gotten us NOTIHNG. And it would mean that the basketball gods see us Warriors fans as the butt of cruel jokes.
I've been looking at the ping pong balls. Here's what I've come up with:
These six teams are going to be the bottom six teams in the NBA: Charlotte, Washington, Toronto, New Orleans, New Jersey, Sacramento
So, if the Warriors will be fighting these teams for the 7th seed: Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Phoenix.
Are the Warriors less talented than these teams? I don’t think so. They are more talented than Detroit and Cleveland for sure. Phoenix is a wild card depending on if they trade Nash. Milwaukee was sort of good, but without Bogut they are sinking fast.
This means that the Warriors are not going to be a bottom seven team: probably 9 or 10 in the end. Even if they go on a massive losing streak, at least one of these teams is guaranteed to go on a massive losing streak as well. The Warriors will not get a bottom seven pick. We’ll just have to hope the ping pong balls fall in the Warriors’ favor.

Finishing #7 would be kinda risky: there’d be a 25% chance of getting leapfrogged and falling to #8.
Finishing #6 would be far less so: 4.1%.
At #5 the odds drop to 0.4%. Four shots in 1,000. Even as a semi-superstitious dude and a Warriors fan, I wouldn’t worry about that scenario coming to pass.
There will be no extra point!

The key to tanking is not asking the players to tank

Really happy with the Lacob regime
Absolutely no adjustment period needed for fans. Just business as usual from the Cohan era.
Ignoring glaring obvious flaws in a roster, not having the ball to shake it up, regardless of the result. Holding out mediocre assets as if they’ll all appreciate into facebook ipo.
And that goes for Steph too
His general attitude the last year and a half has annoyed me. Not a guy I believe can be a leader, at the moment.
The big question is, do you really want the Warriors to tank
considering their recent draft history? Or is this draft so talented that you’d have to be an idiot to not be able to draft a good player?

The non foul at the end of the game...
Well, I have to finally say that I view the NBA as a very entertaining item. I do not view the NBA as true basketball, and certainly not as a fair contest where the talent of the teams decides the outcome. It’s a fixed gig.
There has already been one offical write a book about how the NBA is rigged.
In “Freakonomics” they pointed out how you can tell mathematically if a sport is rigged. They chose to focus on Sumo wrestling, and found out it was very rigged.
No, the NBA is rigged, from the so called “lottery” on down to which teams make the finals.
So, I enjoy watching the Warriors, but the NBA will decide if they are exciting enough and will draw enough viewers to give the signal to the officiating crew to “let this team pass” and get into the NBA finals.
Like they always say,the officials don’t give the calls to weak players. Because a foul isn’t really a foul, I guess. That’s rigged, man. That’s a fix.
