W2B follows the NBA - via the Golden State Warriors

[godspeed]

w's set to announce a minor move in the next hour. something to do probably with jenkins and tyler for strictly cap moves.

those stats are a little skewed. considering most of klays missed layups are hardly contested.

The best klay meltdown from last night was a defensive possession. Suns take a shot, and dont contest the offensive rebound. klay is sitting under the rim by himself. Nearest players are warriors a few feet away. klay goes up for the rebound by himself, and manages to lose the ball out of bounds off himself...lol.

But that's just nitpicking the stat though. I'm sure Eric Gordon has a few uncontested layups too. It doesn't change the fact that he's not nearly as bad at the rim as you painted him as.

if you watch warriors games you will know what I'm saying. Im actually going easy on the guy compared to most warrior fans...lol. as much as he gets on my nerves, i still don't think the gordon deal is a good deal. majority of warriors fans have turned on myers now for not doing this deal.

[FedEx227]

No, I'm sure it's worse when you're watching him and getting frustrated just saying it's not always rosey on the other side of the fence. It's irrelevant now but it was a great idea to stick with Klay and more importantly stick with this core.

[godspeed]

Just need to see some consistency in Klay's play. Warrior fans just have not seen it in a year and a half. We are still seeing the same mistakes. To make matters worse Jackson gives him the green light to do as he pleases out there. You got a rookie Barnes out there who doesn't make anywhere close to the mistakes Klay makes, has a better shooting %, yet Jackson holds him back. The dynamics are real frustrating to watch because we do have talent for once, and it is not managed or coached properly.

For me the proof of bad coaching was during the warriors-heat game on the last possession earlier in the season with the game on the line. Jackson calls a timeout, and doesn't run a play or set, and tells the team let's see who gets open. It was confirmed in interviews after the game and the team kind of laughed it off because they won. You mean to tell me you don;t have a handful of set plays you practice for end of the game situations? Lost faith in his coaching after that game for sure.

What was the minor move?

What was the minor move?

Jenkins to Phil, Tyler to the ATL. 2nd round picks in return. Gives us some cap space.

Keeping Jenkins for a roster spot over the hometown kid Lin worked out well.

[godspeed]

Jersey sleeves are happening tonight. Yikes.

[godspeed]

Bogut out tonight and sidelined indefinitely with back spams.

[Warner2BruceTD]

What a game, what a win.

That Mark Jackson speech to the starters in the huddle in OT fired me up from my couch.

"I used to sit where you sit! And the coach would take me out and sit me down, and put somebody else in to make a stop. That would disrespect me! YOU WORK HARD ALL GAME, YOU DESERVE THE RIGHT TO WIN THE GAME! NOW GO WIN THE GAME!"

Great stuff.

I love their new uniforms

The wired ups for MJ always make me chuckle a little. At no point does he talk about any x and o's. It's all motivation and cliches.

They pump you up for a few seconds, you get pumped, then you are like wait,,,what's the gameplan??..lol.

[godspeed]

Huge win we needed to get confidence back and steal one before another long road trip approaches. Seems like the year has been one long road trip. The positive is we finish with 16 of the last 22 at home.

[Warner2BruceTD]

What minimum finish at this point would satisfy you as a fan? Hard fought first round loss? Advance at least one round? A certain seed?

The realistic goal as a warrior fan is just making the playoffs. That's probably the teams goal as well. Only one playoff appearance since after the '93 season. That's alot of losing. Alot. With some horrible records in there. I think sometimes people forget how bad this franchise is/was. Cohen ran this team into the ground quickly. Lacob and Gruber seem to be doing a decent job thus far. My only main gripe is the hiring of Jackson. A no experience coach, with a young team just doesn't seem like a good idea.

One of the reasons I've been frustrated at times with this team this year is because the fact we finally have talent, and even bench contributors. So when we make bad mistakes, and there is poor coaching involved with games we don't play up to potential I get pissed. We have talent, the major issue is how unbelievably difficult the West is. The competition is pretty sick. Even though we have talent for the first time in awhile, the West is super talented.

Main concern is making the playoffs, after that, if we are able to get in, seed wouldn't matter so much as the matchup. Our only shot on winning a series maybe with the Clippers, or Memphis sans Gay. Spurs, OKC, and even Denver would be an ugly matchup for us.

With that being said, we just gotta keep winning. I've probably enjoyed this season more so than any other I can remember since the RUN TMC days. The 06-07 We Believe Warriors were real fun to watch, but the season itself was only saved in the last month of the season, and making the playoffs on the last night of the season. We went on a sick run the last month and a half just to get in. Then we had the epic playoff series win over Dallas. After that the Utah series seemed do be doomed from the start. The team was absolutely walled from the craziness of the last month and a half of the season.

Not making the playoffs could also be a possibility that would suck. Especially considering how poor this team played during the losing streak. We can't let that happen again. In 2007-08 after we made the playoffs, we finished 48-34, which got us 9th place and ended our season. Gotta love the western conference. Atlanta made it that year for the East 8 games under .500..lol.

That 6 game losing streak had me scared, but last night we seemed to be back on track.
