Our third game went into the hands of the Golden State Warriors and was rather embarrassing. The Warriors had their two best players out, Jason Richardson and Nick Van Exel but still managed to get the W. This of course was to Mike Dunleavy's excellent game, he had a triple double, 32 points, and 11 rebounds. Looks like he has come out shining as much as he can, he was rather quiet last season, and had something to prove. The thing that really killed us was the inside play, they had 42 points to our 30 in the paint. Eric Dampier was too much to our Derrick Coleman, as he had a double-double himself. So overall, we had trouble on both sides of the court. Box Score <u>Final Score</u>: Sixers: 90 Golden State: 104 <u>Scoring Leaders:</u> Allen Iverson: 19 pts. (7/17 fg%) Aaron McKie: 19 pts.

Player of the Game: Mike Dunleavy Game Grade: C+ JBB Sixer Fans In Attendance: 0 The upside to the game however was that both Aaron and Eric came out strong and put out better performances than they did at the ARCO. Aaron was magnificent from behind the arc, as he shot 5-7 from there, but our three-point specialist, Greg Bucker was out yet again. Eric also played one hell of a game, as he only managed one free-throw shot, which is usually his whole game. However, it shows that we really need Glenn more and more now, as Allen is getting a tad bit slow and doesn't cut like he used to.
