I'm hoping BWright gets more burn. Sure he got rocked a few times by heavier players, but it gives him incentive on things to work on this offseason. Like a high calorie diet and a shoulder and leg workout.
If this game doesn't end by 9, I gotta call it quits. There's a fight tonight between Cung Le and Frank Shamrock. This is going to be awesome!
Baron and Iverson both had flops in the game, so it evened out. This was a bad game for Golden State. Al Harrington is an idiot and needs to start playing with more consistency. We can't just rely on Baron, Jack, and Monta to play 40+ minutes a night a not get a win. Biedrins stepped up and played great. His presence on the floor made things run much more smoothly for the Warriors. Barnes needs to step it up as well. He was great last season, but has sucked big time this year. He must step up if we want to have any chance in the playoffs if we even get in. Azubuike just had a bad game. He has averaged 16 points the past few games. And all of his shots were in and out, so it's not like he was bricking any of them. I was kind of pissed that Wright didn't get any minutes tonight, maybe he could have had a shot to disrupt Kenyon Martin's flow and easy shots. Croshere made some bad decisions, but had some nice hustle plays as well so he wasn't a big factor in the game either. We got a game in Dallas tomorrow, and we play Denver one more time on April 10 in Oakland, that game will be a must win based on how close the playoff race is. The team overall needs to stop taking stupid shots, play some defense, and get some help from the bench, because when they do all of that, they are easily one of the best teams in the league. I never thought I would say this, but we need Pietrus back soon. He has been on a tear lately and without him on the floor, the big three has too much pressure on them with no one else on the team contributing.

It would be one thing if Wright had a strong base, but he doesn't. Wright's a nice talent, he'll play better in years to come. The only time you can expect him to really contribute is against long lean players, not the bangers. Which is why you saw Croshere log minutes. The only thing Wright would've contributed with minutes is 3 point plays for Martin. People need to be patient with the guys that aren't physically there yet.
Definitely agree there. Wright is really underweight and he needs it most in the legs. He doesn't have much consistency on his longer range shots either, so his scoring might suffer if he tries to do stuff 1 on 1.
