Ouch. Tough loss...C'mon B.Diddy come back!!!


Davis will be back at 100% in the next game against Dallas at home. (Y)

Oh my goodness. What happened to you Dweav? Looks like injuries are really hurting the team. I like you signing Bryce Drew though. Better luck next game.



BD and Walton injured, Murphy injured in the game, J-Rich out with foul trouble... I didn't expect much more. (N)


Great loss ...good luck next game



Thanks. :? Your Kings have now swept the regular season series against us, 4-0. Hopefully we won't run into each other in the first round of teh playoffs, or we'll be at a mental disadvantage. :x

Wow...c'mon dawg. This is the time to make your role players step up.



It's Kapono time... (Y)


tough loss....anyone could be mistaken for thinking it was the Bobcats and not the upstart Warriors....



Well, shit happens. :(

I'd like to see Kaman starting and playing a behemoth frontline



I rotate Swift and Kaman at C... maybe Chris is worth more PT... :idea:

THE GAME: GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS vs. DALLAS MAVERICKS


ImageImage


After the total dismantlement and embarrassment the Warriors suffered at the hands of the Sacramento Kings, they return back to California to play at home and host yet another of the West’s elite teams, the Mavs. The good news was that Baron Davis was 100% ready to play and help his team have some leadership on the court. In the first quarter, Davis’ passion rubbed off on his teammates as well, and with the passing rapport the 6’ 3” guard created with his guys, Golden State went up ahead very early in the game. With Baron doing the passing and running the break, Stro Swift being the beneficiary of some inspired alley oop passes and Jason Kapono shooting freely from the perimeter, the home side took a 32-19 lead at the end of the first. Quarter number two, and the Mavericks fought back to get themselves back in it with a shout. With Dirk Nowitzki awakening from his offensive slumber and Michael Finley hitting 4 open jumpers in the space of 3 minutes, Dallas reduced the deficit to only 4, 56-52 to end the half. The second half started with Golden State rallying behind Jason Richardson for an early scoring run, and taking the lead back to double digits, temporarily. Kapono and Richardson were monopolizing the attempts for the Warriors, but Dallas’ good ball movement and excellent shot selection, made it a close one again. Dirk was stuck at 9 points for a long time, but Jason Terry was making up for his absence. The third quarter ended 86-81. In the final period of this encounter, it was all about Jason Kapono. Being fed kickout pass after kickout pass, the 6’ 8” sharpshooting California native was hitting trey after trey, with Dallas unable to find a cure on defense. The Mavs made a comeback near the end, but J-Kapp’s 5 three pointers in 6 minutes sealed the deal, and helped the Warriors win this game with a score of 106 – 97.[

good game - kapono is a monster from behind the arc. You could easily push him to break the 3-points in a game record!

If I try real hard, I could... I have some nice plays that have a good chance of leaving my SG open behind the arc, and when J-Kap gets up uncontsted, it's money in teh bank already... :D

Great win against Dallas...good luck next game...nice kapono with 30



yes, we need the wins now with all the injuries if we're going to get a high playoff berth. :!:

Thanks... most of Davis' assists were converted into Kap's 3balls... so they helped each other out stat wise... :D

With Walton out for the remainder of the regular season, I use an on-court five with J-Rich at teh 3 and Kapono at the 2. And despite not starting the games, Kapono gets plenty of minutes since Rodney White is total shite as a SF in Live. :evil:

THE GAME: GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS vs. MILWAUKEE BUCKS

ImageImage

After Baron’s return and a big win against the Dallas Mavericks, confidence was reasonably high in the Golden State locker room and among the fans. The fact that the next opposition were the lowly Bucks added top the enthusiasm for a second straight home victory. But it would not prove that easy in the end. Let’s start from the top. First quarter and the game is pretty much even, with controlled 18 second offenses and careful avoidance of costly turnovers. Rodney White of all people started hot and buried 3 20-footers, while Michael Redd was following suit to end the period with a score of 19-17. In the second quarter, TJ Ford altered the game tempo by himself coming back from the bench, leading fast break after fast break and tearing up the Warriors’ defense in the process, both by taking it to the hole himself or dishing it out to the usually wide open Redd. Despite Baron Davis’ perimeter production, Golden State fell behind soon after, mainly because Jason Richardson was freezing cold from everywhere on the court, stuck at 6 points total. The half ended with the Bucks ahead, 37 – 41.
The second half was even again, with Golden State coming slightly on top this time around. Stro Swift and Chris Kaman were doing a fine job bringing down the boards and containing Joe Smith, while Rodney White was having his best game of the season, scoring from inside and outside. Davis was nearing triple double numbers, while Redd and Desmond Mason were keeping Milwaukee close, with the third quarter ending 63-59. In the final period, the two teams went toe-to-toe with neither being able to shake the other loose. Redd was single handedly carrying the Bucks’ offense, while Davis was doing the exact same thing for the Warriors. In the final two minutes, it was a thriller, and it was a crucial offensive rebound and layup by Josh Smith that put the visitors ahead by two, with 24 seconds left on the clock. The clock was slowly winding down, the ball moving hands constantly, and 1.2 seconds before the buzzer, it found itself in the reliable hands of Jason Kapono, he got up for the contested 22 footer, and rimmed out
The Warriors lose this game to the Bucks, 82 – 84.

Hopefully he doesn't blow a kneecap and misses the playoffs... :x

Taking a break, maybe. (Mostly due to outside interference... *cough* Jackal *cough* ) . Dissapearing? Never. :D


Rodney "friggin" White forgot to rebound seems like the team was so happy to see B-Diddy that they forgot that they had a job to do as well



Hey, RW scored 19 points playing at SF... that should warrant a miracle recognition by itself... :lol:
