    the warriors have not made the palyoffs in 9 years. is it a curse or do we do the wrong thing at the wrong time? just when we get good games all year from damp, we trade him. when cardinal shows true leadership, we lose him. when Boykins started to prove himself as one of the premier clutch players in the nba, we lose him [​IMG] what is with losing good players form the warriors?

    Ok this is going to be hard for you to swallow but this is kind of true, The Warriors are not exactly the greatest franchise, face it, players don't want to play on the team especially new ones to the league. I mean they would rather play on team where the team has and are making the play offs, when your on a team you don't want to play on your not going to play good. Sorry its kind of true, at least if i were put in that situation. I mean it seems like everytime those player get good when they leave the Warriors.

    It's simple. The Warriors abuse their best assets and then they say "Oh you aren't going to lead us to the promise land," and wala they're gone. The Warriors blamed Jamison for losing, they blamed Musselman for losing, they blamed Dampier for losing, people now blame Jason Richardson for losing. The Warriors hide their mistakes by blaming their players and coaches rather than taking the blame and improving their decision making. And then there are the players that the Warriors couldn't pay to keep like Arenas, Boykins, and Cardinal from previous bad decisions.

    Bad ownership, plain and simple. Who hired the GM's? Who had the overall say in what kind of team they'd like to build. They've been all over the place in terms of direction. There is no direction. It went from no defense, high scoring open court play to no defense, no scoring, half court play.

    Larry Hughes just got a triple double last night while shooting over 50% and only 2 turnovers. Ouch. That guy was such a good guy too.

    Hughes was a punk but at least he knew how to play the game well. Better him than JR [​IMG]

    Hughes is a huge punk. He shoved Hinrich into Deng. Dirty play=punk.

    You know what is annoying, seeing the players that should have been drafted by the warriors doing really well on other teams or players we let go doing well on other teams. The judgement of talent in this franchise is just majorly skewed.
