Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

OPEN THREAD: Game #20: Warriors @ Lakers

Warriors (W-L): 11-8

Lakers (W-L): 11-8

Time: 6:30pm PST

TV:NBA TV, FSN

Radio: KNBR 680

The Warriors absolutely own the Lakers! Yea, right. The Lakers have the Warriors number. It's actually pretty ugly. The Warriors have lost 8 straight to the Lakers and haven't won at Staples since January of 2003, nearly 5 years! But that's all going to change tonight. This is a different Warriors team from those of years prior. The streaks end tonight and this is how they plan on doing it:


You can't score if I sit on you!


Sasha guarding Baron? Yes, please



This game is part of NBA Heritage Week. It's a celebration and appreciation of what the NBA was and what the NBA is now. Check out what NBA.com has done to keep the great history alive.

The Lakers are coming off back to back wins and are on a nice 3 day rest. They should be rested enough to keep up with the Warriors running and gunning, so it will be up to the Warriors to tighten up the D while continuing to push their style of play on offense. To win, the Warriors will have to overcome Kobe, Odom, Bynum, and the rest of the supporting cast along with some nasty history. If the Warriors win, the streak ends and the Warriors take a 1 game lead over the Lakers in the Pacific standings.

A lot of you will probably be watching this game even closer than normal if you've thrown in your entry for the latest GSOM Ticket Contest. We appreciate all the entries. I've also noticed a lot of people have just signed up for accounts on GSOM so that they can try to win. Thanks for signing up! We would love for all of you to drop a line in this open thread as well and participate in the GSOM community.

Go Warriors!

Predictions:

  • Warriors win by 7
  • Pietrus scores 15 and doesn't step out of bounds on the sideline.
  • Bynum grabs 14 boards
  • Kobe scores 35

Update (Atma Brother #1): Live Boxscore from Yahoo!

Update 2 (Atma Brother #1): Warriors lose again in LA 113-123.

Stay tuned for the recap...

W's(11-8) vs Bucks(11-8)?

The LA Bucks
seem to make more sense than the lakers, since LA has more bucks than lakes.

Does anyone know if Baron's granny is gonna be at the game tonight? The warriors are a lock if she's there.

Warriors win a close one
but can't contain kobe or vladimir radmanovic (or however you spell his name). Vlad goes for 27 and Kobe 40. Even Vujancic goes big with 17, but the Warriors find a way in the waning minutes to pull out another win!

What about the 14th?
Are the Warriors wearing Hardwood Classics Dec. 14 against the Fakers? That'll be my first game at the Roaracle this season.

by goGSW24 on Dec 9, 2007 6:36 PM PST reply actions  

For anyone interested...
The Warriors will be wearing hardwood classics jerseys on Tuesday against the Spurs but not on Friday against the Lakers.

They will be wearing the jerseys more throughout the year. This page has all the dates:

by singha on Dec 9, 2007 8:07 PM PST up reply actions  

Theory re Baron on Kobe
Kobe usually get  the " all star " calls from refs but with Baron on him the refs can't give all those touch fouls to Kobe or they'll foul BD out early

by hardcore on Dec 9, 2007 6:51 PM PST reply actions  

ehhh
i think the reason we got no scoring is because freakin barnes starting instead of harrington. i think harrington is a big part of our scoring whether or not he is doing good in the field or bad. i would much rather see harrington than barnes hoo i think is a second half player than first.

what are the chances Phil decides to take Kobe out the rest of the game?

seriously
When other teams see THUD in a game, they should think, "The game must be over, Warriors win." They should not think, "The game must be over, we win." THUD is the victory cigar, Nellie, not the white flag.

THUD's PT
20 minutes.

He played more minutes than

Barnes (19)
Pietrus (17)
Biedrins (13)
Harrington (16)

None of the above were hurt or in foul trouble.

Against a team loaded with talented tall guys, Troy freaking Hudson played more minutes than Biedrins, POB, Wright, and Croshere ...COMBINED.

WTF, Nellie.

My one MAJOR knock on don nelson
is that he'll bench a big whose playing well to go uber small (6'8" and under) and stick with it longer than he needs EVEN when it ain't working.  I think the dubs were like -9 when he did that.  Sheesh...
He could be worse than baron when it comes to ego.
