    No, it just makes the Lakers the dominating favorite. They won't lose a game en route to a championship. 16-0. All by 40+ points. On Andrew Bynum's back. Fo fo fo.

    I think the problem was that tonight they ran into the next Bill Russell, Andris Biedrins, and the next Patrick Ewing, Ronny Turiaf.

    Not to mention the next Jordan, Stephen Jackson, and the next Allan Houston, Marco Belinelli.

    The reason I'm shocked is because the Celtics always find a way to win - even when they play crappy.

    I wasn't expecting 2 in a row.

    Yup, but don't bet on it :cheers:.

    It could be the kick start they need in order to get back to the playoffs again and the start of NBA head coaches naming defensive coordinators.

    Yeah, Miller is a better comparison. Considering the excellent flopping ability.

    Warriors announcers just said this is the first time the W's have won without scoring at least 100 pts since December 11, 2007.

    Sorry Celtics fans, at least you can pray for a #1 pick in the draft? Thats about all your sorry franchise has to hold onto at this point hacacacaca!

    I still like the Manu Ginobili comparison for Marco. Both are high risk, high energy international players with good handling and finishing ability. Good effort on D too.

    Nice to see a win but more importantly, can the Warriors build on this while getting healthy?

    Oh wow. When did we trade Garnett, Pierce and Allen for our entire team? Because, that was suppose to be our typical 4th quarter debacle. Darn lucky to catch the game in late 3rd quarter...

    Nice win for the Warriors. Stephen Jackson was finally 100% and it showed. He has made the team so much better since he's joined the squad a couple of years ago. This team's record as a starter for this franchise is very good, especially if you take away that stretch where he probably shouldn't have played before he took the last four games off. I think the recent stretch where the key players were absent is going to be very important for the rest of the season and the future. It has given the necessary time for players like Marco, CJ, Wright, and Turiaf come into their zone with the team.

    This could be a turning point in the season. Or it could be that the Celtics are kind of like the Mavericks. The Warriors play well against those two teams. This is the 5th straight win against Boston when playing in Oakland. They played the Celtics well in the first meeting of the season too. So it will be interesting to see what the Warriors take from this game.

    I think Rudy Fernandez is more like Manu Ginoboli. I think Marco is not near the same energy level as Manu - at least consistently. I see Marco taking plays off and giving up on plays. Manu is a player who is always getting in the middle of plays and never giving up. I am not sure if it's a conditioning thing for Marco now, (maybe I am giving Manu too much credit) but I'd disagree with this comparison. I can't really think of a good comparison for Marco though.

    I thought Morrow, after his first game or two, would be the next Reggie Miller though. But he's kind of lost his hot hand since. He seems to have trouble getting enough space to score like Reggie Miller was a master at getting.

    I wouldn't say it's a perfect comparison but it's close enough for me. I think Marco could fill a similar role as Manu has on the Spurs if Marco continues to improve, along with the team he plays for.

    Marco is a better passer than Manu and Manu is definitely stronger and quicker to the basket...I'd say a little wreckless.

    Look at Maggette. It looks like he doesn't even care about the game.
