I'm far to lazy *cough* I mean busy to do a preview or anything, just wanted to note that, being in Houston, this game is EARLY (5:30pm). It is supposedly on FSBA and FSSW. Must win goes without saying, this could be the backbreaking game if they lose it, or give them a real shot if they win.
I'm amazed that the small lineup has worked against the Rockets today. Granted they don't have TMac tonight, so the W's caught a good break. Worried about the 4th though.
I'm in class, so can't watch the game. Last times I looked on Yahoo, we were leading 62 - 54 and then it was 68 - 66 or something like that. Now it's 84 - 72. AL is scoring, but still missing too many shots. Looks like JRich pulled us ahead. Baron, JRich and Monta in the 4Q!

For the win! This is huge. A road win none the less. Unfortunately it does not count as much since McGrady is out, but the good news is Lakers are going to take out the Clippers tonight!

That is impressive.
I don't know about the Lakers winning. Back to back and they haven't played well in the second half of the season. Never know what to expect from them.
Warriors win! I can't figure out if JRich is Nick Anderson or Ray Allen. It's 28 - 20 Clippers. Where is Kobe when you need him (gloom)? EDIT: The Kings are no help. They're down 21 to the Nugz. Sheesh!
Yao was really struggling to get up and down the court. ...the massive defensive intensity really took advantage of his obvious lack of stamina.
I love how Nelson had the Warriors guard Yao tonight. He didn't get anything easy all night and finally had to take his big ass out of the game. T-Mac going out was definately a plus. JRich played unreal as well. It feels good to be excited about basketball in April even though baseball has started!
If there is a God GS will make it to the playoffs. Out of all of the wests Bottom feeders they deservr it the most. GG GS DAL a 7 game series instant classic!!!
Nelson is a genius. On a separate note, you know the Laker ownership has instructed the team to lose the game so that the Clips will get into the playoffs. Every one on both teams benefits when the playoff hype hits LA like that. Both teams probably have a separate contract to share profits... j/k
I don't care if TMac was out, this win really impressed me. The bad news is the Warriors have only won 6 of the last 23 road games. The good news is they've won 3 of their last 6, and 2 of the 3 losses were close. They also have the 5th best home record of all 15 Western teams. As far as the Lakers go, well they are proving what loser scum they are. If they don't come back and beat the Clips, which I'm still reluctantly hoping for, wouldn't it be hilarious if they kept losing and the Warriors kept winning and the Lakers ended up dropping behind the Warriors for the #8 playoff spot? If they do lose to the Clips, they'd be 3.0 games ahead of GSW, with what I would say is a tougher remaining schedule. I think the game in SA is probably the only game I'd say is an automatic L on the Warriors schedule. The other games are all winnable with some luck and fire.

Well the team looks good. If they keep this up, they should keep a good shot at the playoffs, but if the Clippers and the Nuggets do not lose then that doesn't help much either. I am ready to see the Warriors in the playoffs too. I guess only time will tell if that will happen this season or not.
