Mr. Brigthside - GSoM Remix

Coming out of the bay

And I've been doing just fine

Gotta, gotta be down because I want it the playoffs

Started out with a trade

How did it end up like this?

It was only a trade

IT WAS ONLY A TRADE

Now they're losing again

And they're getting blown out

While we're stuck at 29 wins

And it's another playoff drought

Now they're down by ten

And my stomach is sick

And we've only got 7 men

But Jack's brickin another 3 now

Wondering what to ME now

Let me gooooo

I just can't look it's killin me

And taking coooontrooool

Jealousy, turning the Mavs into a good team

Swimming through sick lullabies

Chocking on your alibies

But it's just the price I pay

Destiny is calling me

Open up my eager eyes

Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

Sad story...sad story indeed.

Anyway, apparently the Warriors have their final game of the season tonight. Yay! This horrid season is over! I can't lie though, it's been a fun season, ups and downs yet, but it's all about the journey!

Speaking of Journey...

Play this for the first part...

The Game

No, I'm not talking bout 50 Cent's counterpart (although they have beef now or something) I'm talkin bout this so called "NBA game" on tonight. "NBA game." Well, taking a look a look back at the last time these two teams played together, their games end up being more like high school games of "see who can score the most points without playing defense and by pulling ridiculous dunks." I love it.

It's almost as though all the Suns and Warriors come to the games with big Burger King Crowns on and say

"ANYWAY YOU WANT IT, THAT'S THE WAY YOU NEED IT."

Hit up track 2 for the next part...

Sure there's a game but...
In the words of ROMESdavidWOOD37 "i don't care!" The last game of losing season's aren't really about the game. It's more about a celebration of the season, the trials and tribulations that lead a sub 500 winning percentage season, and realizing the "potential" for next year. There were many of those indeed, but no need to discuss them quite yet. For now, let's just celebrate the 2008-2009 season.

Rumor has it that as soon as the game ends, the coaches and players are going to head their separate ways. Don Nelson is apparently headed straight to Hawaii to go hang out on the beach, Monta Ellis is going to ride his moped over to the Mississippi, Stack Jack is flying out to an Indy night club, CJ's heading to his home city of Vegas, and AmMo is going back to the bay and riding the BART up and down the blue line.

Where did these rumors start? Me. I just made them up. Right now. Hilarious, I know.

On the real though, I know where the Warriors team is heading after the game. Want to know what's even better about that? They invited the whole GSoM crew with them! In fact, I'm sitting in the Phoenix airport right now, about to take a shuttle to the US Airways Center to watch the game on the bench with the players.

Yes, we're that famous. Ladies, the line starts right behind Jessica Alba - she will always be my first love.

Where are we heading you ask? Well, just take a second to think about it...where do sports athletes all head at the end of a season?

The Final Track for the night...

The Final Countdown

Ladies and gentleman, GSoM fans, prepare yourself for the final game of the season. Meaningless game, indeed, but as always, it will be a fun one to watch. Time for some more Rob Kurz action!!

Yes, it's the Final Coutndown.

R Dizzle's Predictions (update 6:00 PM)

• AR with a triple-double (points, boards, blocks)
• Morrow with 5 three pointers
• Kurz with a double-double
• Shaq Attack misses 5 FTs
• J-Rich has 3 monster dunks
