    Iguodala has become a strong player since Philly disposed him. Look out. Guy with a hard prononcing name is on the loose.

    They say you need to have some adversity before the playoffs to test the players' collective resolve. Guess a 4 game losing streak and these injuries can give our players some of that adversity and help prep them, in case they're backed into a corner in a series.

    Maybe...

    I hate it when people whine about the schedule. Everyone plays the same number of games. We've had big breaks and came out playing like shit.

    yeah my fiances mom did the same thing....then got side swiped. I had to remind her to have her insurance co go after theirs for the difference in what they gave her to what it was worth so she wouldn't just lose the chunk of money she put down.

    This is the part of the season where Meyers and CJ combine for 70pts and Joel gets 30 rebounds. It's when we unveil the secret weapons we've been hiding on the bench for a few years.

    This is the first game of the year that I expect us to lose and it's sad because I've been looking forward to it all season. But without Aldridge, we don't have an advantage over them. And without Wes, we don't have the Rain Broz to battle the Splash Brothers. And Klay is back from his injury. I don't see how we win this game with Aldridge, Batum, AND Kaman out. I'll be watching though and hopefully they'll surprise me.

    I hear Ya King. Got tickets to the game and I'm not terribly excited about it.

    at this point im just hoping to see something from a bench guy i havent seen yet. i agree its the first game i expect to lose this season. i really tried to stay positive when wes went down even though i hated life. but now im slipping into over dramatic seasons over depression.

    I have no idea why the Warriors don't get more respect. All they do is kick the crap out of the opponent game in and game out.

    Why shouldn't they be favored to win it all?

    im pretty sure they are at this point. i felt we matched up with them well when we were healthy and thus made us favorites. i cant sleep on atlanta if the 2 teams meet in the finals tho. atlanta will match up well with them and dominate down low like we could have

    +> Yesterday while I was getting root canal my endodonist was talking about his Toyo Truck and the corrosive frame. Recall out and he has to wait. Thank God he did not take it out on me while filing the canals. I hope you guys could use that recall for the insurance claim.

    TNT game tonight in the Rose Garden. You just never know what might happen? Stotts is saying "Just go out and play hard." I agree.

    I blame all the problems on Barkley!:smack:
    Just before the win against Dallas when they lost Wes Charles decided to make Portland his "Pick" to win the west. Portland did go on to beat Houston but Barkley then decided to put the double Whammy on the Blazers by saying "With or without Matthews the Blazers are still going to win their division".
    The curse of the "Sir Charles" pick..
