    Actually, Rudy was ahead of him with the GS player holding Rudy's jersey - he could
    easily have called a clear path foul, in which case we win the game.

    What, a fat coach stomping at the ref and screaming while doing the traveling motion with his hands for half the court is against the rules?

    Why we lost:
    Poor officiating
    Poor coaching. Nate went small, when we should have went big. He did exactly what Avery did against them in the playoffs. You need to play to YOUR strengths, not theirs.
    Turnovers. You have got to take care of the ball, esp against a fast breaking team
    GS was just in the zone. We had them taking the shots we wanted them to, but they were locked in. It was a fools gold win for them, we had man of those last year. It isn't sustainable and they will find that out just like we did.

    The Warriors played out of their minds though. Look at how many 20+ scorers they had.

    The flop jobs on Aldridge were pretty pathetic. That was my only main complaint. When you are shooting 20 3's you just aren't going to be getting the calls. On the other hand, if we went inside we got some crappy flop call. Team started to play better after they started rolling to the bucket and making the extra pass.

    We certainly played bad enough to lose the game, but it's good to know that the refs are there to impose the "proper" outcome when the game doesn't go the way the bookie ... er ... fate dictates it should go.

    I know I'm just fired up right now because of the outcome of the game, but you can't seriously tell me that Donaghy was some rogue, lone actor.

    The Warriors will win 70% of their home games. This was not a game we SHOULD have won. Could of ...yes. But GS shoots great at home. They won the game.

    Sure, when you shoot FT's all night, you can get to 20 pretty quick. Only Morrow had a legit 20.

    How about all those flops that killed us. Poor Aldridge got screwed on 4 of his fouls. When the refs are calling crap like that, it's hard for us to be aggressive. On the other end, they're calling all the hand fouls out on the perimeter.

    On top of that, Golden State has the 2nd to worst FT% in the league and goes 33-35? Unreal.

    Turnovers and LMA killed us tonight.

    it should of been a no-call, because both players were holding each other.

    That little prick did look like Donaghys brother. I hate refs that smirk. And Delaney needs to retire.

    And a nice profit from his bookie.

    Donaughy said there were many others, and there's the proof.

    This league's a very bad joke.

    Take this from the game:

    LaMarcus didn't do jack.

    The reffing was a little suspect (but thats home cooking).

    Golden State BARELY beat us.

    We went 3-2 on a road trip most of us thought they'd MAYBE win 1 game.

    Oden had 22 points, 10 boards and 2 blocks in what is effectively his 3rd game of the year.

    The flops were huge. That won't happen on the road.

    So does the ref as I'm sure it was in Spanish.
