Let's beat these guys!</p> And Barnes stop trying to be the hero! You're only good when the game comes to you not when you start trying to play like Derek Fisher!</p>
One of the most disgusting, horribly officiated games I have ever seen in my life. W's finally pulled it out at the end. Literally lived and died by the 3. We're lucky that the Kings were pretty bad tonight too. They were dodging bullets with us shooting 6/29 on 3's, we were bound to hit some eventually and those two by SJax at the end made a 1 point deficit into an easy win. Nice, tough win. I like how we're pulling games out on the road. Good NBA teams are good road teams and find ways to win. Warriors have been excellent in that aspect since Jack returned.</p>
I didn't think we were going to win with the way we played, but it was all decided in the final moments. Thank goodness Sjax has some real guts and shot accuracy (well you know vs. having real guts and no shot accuracy like Baron Davis on the pullup three lol)</p> We beat a rebuilding team and we were playing like crap! But since it was on the road, that's still a good win. I feel we can beat anybody on our home turf but that road game is something else without Sjax.</p>
You're right, RunBJM, that was one of the ugliest games I've ever seen, largely because of the officiating. There must be AT LEAST a dozen times I saw (on replay and TiVo replay when they wouldn't show it) where there was NO CONTACT and a foul was called. Absolutely atrocious and disgusting. This ref David Guthrie is a real tool (is he a rookie?). I can't believe Dick Bavetta was in that game, usually I feel good with his crews, but this was just awful.</p> Well, ugly or not, that was an amazing grind it out victory. I really was sure right until the end the Warriors would find a way to lose that game. It doesn't seem to matter how many threes they chuck up and miss, they keep firing. SJax is the only one I trust with those late-game threes though, he's really the only consistently clutch guy we have. Baron sometimes, Monta occasionally, and everyone else erratically or never. But then, the overall team 3PT% is over 34%, which is not bad. It's hard to believe. Anyway, if the Warriors can even play decently on the road this year (instead of pretty much forfeiting each road game at the tipoff as they have in the past) they'll be in a much better position for playoff seedings.</p> I notice that Houston is coming off a game with Phoenix last night. They won, but hopefully they'll be tired. Monta is going to have to show some caution with Yao, he can get to a lot of those balls that Monta normally flips around other players.</p>
Good point, CR2, I totally agree with you that this would have been a loss without Jackson. Never would have thought that Jackson would be that important to this team.</p>
At one point the fouls calls were Warriors-31, Kings-19 in favor of the kings! In two possessions they got offensive fouls and it looked like the kings player was just standing around waiting to be hit and then just fall to the floor. If we didn't foul them that much, i think the Warriors would of sealed the game early</p> </p> P.S.-Don't forget, Rockets are not playing Steve Francis which is going to help that out a lot.</p>
I think Francis is starting to break into the rotation now. I know he played last night against the Suns. The Rockets PG have been inconsistent, James and Alston.</p>
Should be an interesting game, let's see if Al can drive Yao crazy tonight.</p> What are the chances that the Warriors stink it up shooting 2 nights in a row</p>
