Warriors vs Grizzlies @ home - wed feb 21, 2007 7:30pm pst FSN

OMG!? What are the Warriors/Jackson doing? He shot a 3 pointer with too much time left on the clock. gosh...3.5 seconds left for the Griz with how they've been shooting...oh gosh.

 

mike freakin miller!!

 

yahoo victory! haha.

 

whew! pulled that one out. #8 seed anyone? J-Rich played much better than I expected after that rough start, and from what i saw his ball handling actually looked much better than it has in the past, and he was hustling like crazy. great to see him back.

Still a bad shot but he didn't have a choice. Pretty nice game by JRich and great to see Monta really take over in OT, maybe the limelight from the All-Star game got him re-energized.

 

Wow. Mike Miller is awesome.

Oh, JRich is awesome too.

Did I mention Monta Ellis? He's awesome.

Oh yeah, btw, Gasol is awesome too.

Man, what a fantastic game. Even better that GS won!

 

Not exactly a picture perfect win, but at this point, I will take any type of win. Nice to see Richardson doing whatever he can when he wasn't hot and made key baskets when it counts. 8th seed at this moment with 5 teams chasing right behind us. And, we have big road games ahead, Clippers - Bucks - Bulls - Wizards - Pistons. How about some winning road trip for a change?

 

Ellis is so clutch! Damn!

 

JRich is awesome even when rusty.

Monta is awesomer. He's clutch.

Oh well, fugly win, but it's still a win and we're in the playoffs!!!

 

J-Rich! He brings so much more to the this team. Unlike some players on this team (Pietrus) Jrich goes after the the ball/rebound when the ball is in the air. How great would it have been if J-Rich's putback dunk counted when Jackson airballed the layup?! Nearly everyone was perfect that played in Overtime. 20+ points all around for Harrington, Sjax, Biedrins, Ellis, and 1 point away from 20 for Jrich.

 

Yeah, JRich looked like he had his legs back. Man he's the heart and soul of this team! That alley-oop dunk from SJax to JRich to take the lead nearly brought the roof down!

 

Any way we can get Pau Gasol? I'd put Monta, JRich, Pau and AB against anybody. LOL.

Toss in Mike Miller to round it out and we have ourselves a Championship!

 

Wow what a game .... Hard to find any negatives.... all right ... turnovers, rebounds, defense.... even so.... 5 guys near 20+ points..... J-rich over ten boards....jax with over 10 assists..... both j-rich and monta with really nice numbers.... and clutch play down the stretch


What could go wrong and be a negative? hmmmm....

oh yeah barnes said he will be ready to go on saturday

hopefully he will be playing for portland....
in the

dixon/magliore for barnes/foyle deal

 

I did not watch the game, but when I saw only 2 pages, I was like "great we got blown out by 20"! Now I have something to brag about to my Spurs class mate. Dubs have sole posession of the 8th seed. And just a few weeks ago he bagged on us for not even being .500!

Note that Mike Miller only looks like an all-star when he plays against the Warriors. He averages 13.9 ppg I was at the game last night. He has that brace thing on his hand, so I yelled, "Take off the auto-aim, you cheater!" Got some chuckles from the crowd.

I wouldn't go bragging to a Spurs fan. I think they still have more bragging rights But, this is the best we've done for a long time.

Oh, ok, thanks HiRez for informing me about the shot clock, I wasn't aware of that. I was under the impression that the Warriors had the last possession of regulation.

As far as a later comment about wanting a lineup of Ellis, Richardson, Pau, and AB: I suppose if the Grizzlies were interested in Baron Davis, the Warriors could try to do Baron for Gasol. To make the deal slightly more appealing to the Grizzlies and if the Warriors really want Gasol and are willing to pay the luxury tax, then maybe the Warriors can add expiring contracts of Zarko and Pietrus for their unwanted players like Brian Cardinal and Stromile Swift. Also the Warriors could try to add picks...

So maybe it would be something like Baron and Pietrus/Zarko for Gasol and Swift/Cardinal. I don't know, this is just food for thought, to add onto the previous comment.

Oh yeah, so after the game I was watching some ESPN News last night, and the coverage that they showed was completely rediculous. I recall about two or three high lites where at least two of them belonged to Mike Miller. They went on to show the progression of Mike Miller's shooting that game. Then at the end they were like, oh and by the way the Warriors won. Then they went to something else. The Warriors aren't even a professional sports team, or in the NBA according to ESPN (and maybe NBA TV to a lesser extent). It is sickening. Oh well... It's good to be back in the playoff picture. The Warriors have a big game Saturday @ LA Clippers. That is going to be a huge game.

I was discussing with my buddies that Mike Miller's hair thing looks so lame that it might even top Dunleavy's, Morrison's, or Murphy's bad hair styles. But man I really have been liking Mike Miller in my yahoo fantasy lineup. He plays 5 possible positions (g, sg, sf, f, util) and he gets me 3-pointers, rebounds, decent fg%, assists, a steal, and he's pretty consistent. He is basically kind of does what Sjax does (small forward that plays like a shooting guard and is decently quick/athletic to play either position but is not good defensively).

The Auto aim. LOL. I guess every small forward got l33t h4X when playing the Warriors.

 

Mike Miller was unbelievable. That was the best shooting performance I have ever seen live. If it wasn't for his fruity hair, I might be a fan of his.
