^I think they will lose. Especailly if they bring out the small ball lineup. There is no way they can match up with Detroits lineup, with small ball. Wallace, Wallace, and Prince, its goign to be tough for them to score. THe only advantage they ahve is that they will be pumped up with the recent trade and they're at home.

Jason vs. Rip is Jason's time to shine, Beastie (Dunleavy) vs. Prince, is Prince all the way, Murphy vs. Sheed, just about even, and Big Ben vs Foyle, Big Ben. We have a big chance to prove ourselves
^Oh I was thinking Monty was going to start DAvis at PG Fisher at SG Richardsonn at SF- with prince on him it would be like how he struggled against marion Dunleavy at PF- Rasheed will defintly stop him on D and if he posts up Dunleavy, Rasheed will ahve a big night Murphy or Folye at C- However if they play the lineup you mentioned then they a chance since J-rich will be able to score against RIP and they get better rebounding.

J-Rich and B-Diddy together is going to be something special to watch! But do you all think the Warriors can get the to the playoffs and be competitive?

Yeah, that's what I was thinkin' as well. You all should have a very solid team come next year though...
^If we can do this even better PG: B-Diddy/ Fisher/ 2nd rounder SG: Jason Richardson/ Mickael Pietrus/ FA SF: Marvin Williams/ Rodney White/ Mickael Pietrus PF: Beastie/ Zarko Cabarkapa/ Nikoloz Tskitishvili C: Troy Murphy/ Adonal Foyle/ Andris Biedrins
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting J-Rich23:</div><div class="quote_post">I think that we could also start Pietrus or White at SF and have Dunleavy at PF and Murphy at C.</div> Hmm. Interesting I never thought of that. That could work. But Pietrus seems to have no confidence right now. Also as much as I hate to say it FIsher has been playing well at SG
^AHHH!! I'd rather bench Fisher and put Pietrus on the floor, but then even a stat freak like me must remeber he's been averaging 20 ppg in the small ball lineup, however that is not likely to continue with B-Diddy putting up 20-25, Jason 20-45, Beastie 10- 20, and Murphy 15-25. Fisher will be the odd man out. We put Pietrus in, we get a guy with D, who can shoot and is a great penetartor. Also I think everyone's confidence is back. My prediction, Beastie, Zarko, Tskitishvili, and Pietrus will play like Superstars off the bench

I still don't think we have a legit inside presence to make the playoffs in the west. And you know possibly Bdiddy will play less than 70 games next season. Even if Murphy develops some post game our defense could be pretty bad inside.... One thing about the Pistons is that everyone plays defense. I don't think the W's know what that is. They're trying to make offense their best defense.
The most active forum just got a whole lot more active. Great move by Golden State. Two stars in Richardson and Davis along with a developing Troy Murphy and Dunleavy. Also they get a load of potential in Tskitbhsdbsjllli who was drafted with the 5th pick. Great move by Golden State and this might out them on the map!
If we can be like the Suns in offense and get a guy like Marion and Amare, we could go for the playoffs. We already have an incredibly young, taleneted team. We have Zarko, Niko, Horse, Beastie, J-Rich, B-Diddy, Andris, White, and Mickael that we can build around. Fisher, Foyle, and Cheany are the vets, but this is a young team that will only get better.
I think it's Zarko, "Skeeta", Horse (Murphy), (who the heck is Beastie?), J-Rich, B-Diddy as in "P-diddy formerly known as Puff Daddy", The Latvian Assasin is Biedrens, Rodney White has no nickname, and "The Flying Frenchmen" as in the "Flying Dutchman" is Pietrus, Foyle is "O-D" as in Oh-Donal. Derek Fisher is "D-Fish". Mike Dunleavy is just MD. mrj18, looks like the Knicks got rid of some long salaries with Moochie Norris, Vin Baker, but then took on Malik Rose + Mo Taylor + late first rounders? Very curious. I'm starting to wonder about Isiah... Has he lost his mind?
I think it's a good building block, but still think the Warriors won't make the playoffs in the next 3 years. And yes you can remember me saying this.

The Warriors foum is now like the traffic across the bay bridge during rush hour. Packed and everyone is talking their heads off
