Dallas at Warriors Tipoff: 6 tonight at the Oakland Coliseum Arena. TV: Fox Sports Net. Radio: KTCT (1050). Mavericks update: Saturday's loss to Seattle dropped the Mavericks to 15-24 on the road, where they will begin a first-round Western Conference playoff series. But if Dallas must be the visitor, the Warriors are as desirable an opponent as any. The Mavericks have 20 consecutive victories against Golden State, including nine in a row in Oakland. If playing back-to-back games has fatigued the Mavericks, they'll have their work cut out for them tonight. Jason Richardson (18.6 points per game) leads a balanced offense, with seven Warriors averaging better than 9.5 points per game. Mavericks injuries: G Jon Stefansson (ankle), G Tariq Abdul-Wahad (knee) and G Tony Delk (ankle) are out. G Michael Finley (calf) is questionable. Warriors injuries: C Erick Dampier (ankle), C Evan Eschmeyer (knees) and G Nick Van Exel (knee) are out. G Avery Johnson (hamstring) is questionable.
20 Game Losing Streak to the Mavs is OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a win for the Warriors tonight. That was one of the most exciting games I have seen all year. It was a playoff atmoshere at the Arena. 60 points from the bench! Did anybody see Musselman going crazy after we won the game? I love how he ran like a little kid with his arms in the air through the tunnel.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting openglfx:</div><div class="quote_post">Yep, saw everything. Saw Murphy sky on Bradley too. Murph's a pretty tough guy.</div> Yea he is. There are not too many guys in the league who would have went for the monster dunk there. He is one tough kat. Cardinal for MVP!
that was great, what a win. Hope Murph is ok though. Mussleman was funny, I saw we keep him just because he acted like a little kid and finally showed some "happy" emotion. ha ha
Yea, it just makes me love Musselman that much more. This guy wants to win every single game no matter what its importance. To see him running and jumping on players at the end of this game was classic.
The "Custodian" had another productive night 16Pts, 8 boards going 6 for 7 from the field. Murph and Uncle Cliffy might have the PF spot locked up for next season but hey.. why not have the "Custodian" again next season to back em up? I mean it wouldn't hurt when those two guys might have an off night to bring in some firepower right off the bench that probalby won't cost much??
I really hope we keep Cardinal, the guy does things that make this team better. There is a reason why the guy is in the game in the final minutes of close games. I just hope he doesn't get greedy and ask for too much.

He's been fairly consistent except for that one stretch when he couldn't shoot at all. I like his go all out approach to playing the game. The thing I notice about Murphy is he likes to shoot the ball a lot. It seems like he's padding his stats so he can get a big contract.
I honestly don't see Cardinal asking too much money. I think he is thankful the Warriors gave him a chance and I just dont see him beeing greedy, but then again this is the NBA so who knows

I would like to see him taking it to the basket a little bit more like he did a little bit tonight.
lets just hope Bradley is not their to meet him at the rim anymore, that fall was sick. Hope he is alright
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting cburson:</div><div class="quote_post">lets just hope Bradley is not their to meet him at the rim anymore, that fall was sick. Hope he is alright</div>Speaking of Bradely, I hate this guy with a passion. He is the biggest cry baby on the court. He crys and whines about every freaking call. He is the tallest guy on the court and he plays like a wuss.

It just seems like a lot of shots to take when he's playing like 22 minutes a game. I wouldn't mind trading him though, for a low post threat.
Murphy is an animal on the boards. He can get a lot of rebounds. I wouldn't want to trade him. He can stretch out the defense and can get to the win pretty well too.
Damn Im starting to think I shouldve got season tickets this season the way the Warriors play whenever I go to their games..Saw them beat SA, Minnasota, Orlando and now Dallas..Im hoping my goodluck brings them another victory against the Kings on Wed.

Its the last game of the season but I suspect it is sold out. I would get season tickets for next year but I am going to be in Fresno for College.
