i don't blame him really, he doesn't have his legs back yet! ing stupid to play him 45 minutes--longer than any laker had to play! what's the WORST that could happen putting belinelli, watson, kurz or even williams in for an extra 5, 10, 15 minutes? ing don nelson. ugh.... |
And even Jermareo Davidson played for a minute and had a shot attempt :wtf:
Yet Morrow, the best pure shooter on the team, doesn't get any PT. It's ridiculous. |

well all you fuckers watched tonight for 3 1/2 quarters how good the warriors can play, even with our starting center and 2nd-best perimeter shooter still injured, but as always, our tough losses boil down to coaching from don nelson. |
Too bad it's a 4-quarter game. It was only a matter of time before the Lakers exploited the "matchups" that were thrown out there by Nellie. I really think this game would have been a blow-out much earlier if AB was playing. The defensive mismatches were what kept the Lakers from running away early. Don't blame Don Nelson for this. He just doesn't have a big front 3 to compete with the Lakers' size and length.
Think about how bad it would have been if Bynum were in the game as well.

Who were they going to sub in? The GSW bench isn't all that deep.
| quote: | | why in the hell is monta playing 45 minutes when he isn't even close to ready for those minutes? stupid! |
See previous response. Also, he is truly a joy to watch. The Lakers have nobody who can keep up with his speed. Too bad his defensive skills are lacking. He'll get much better on that end of the floor in the next couple years though. He's truly scary for Lakers fans, a la Tony Parker a few years ago when San Antonio was the team to beat in the West.
| quote: | | why is there no substitution pattern for jackson when he's obviously tired and plays selfish slop ball when he gets that way. positions are irrelevant as pretty much every warrior is interchangeable. why are so many of our quality shooters rotting on the bench??? |
Again, it's a size issue. GSW had nobody to match up against the Lakers' bigs.
| quote: | | what about the lack of real minutes and real plays for belinelli and watson? both those guys are hustlers and at this point are faster and much better than monta is right now. belinelli can also guard anyone in the league just as good as any warrior. too bad he's never given a chance unless half the starters are injured. |
Belinelli plays typical Euro defense - matador style. It was apparent throughout the entire game that the Lakers can score at the same pace as the Warriors. Nellie had to throw out his best defenders in the second half and they just weren't good enough. Belinelli would have exacerbated that fact.
| quote: | | the use of talent on this team almost always pisses me off, except when we win, i can forget about it. tonight, it made us lose. no question. |
No, the Lakers made you lose. LA is clearly the better team. GSW needs a big body to play along side of Biedrins (when he's healthy). Anthony Randolph just doesn't have the build to bang around the boards in the West. He's uber-athletic, but that doesn't make up for his slight frame.
| quote: | | it was nonetheless an entertaining game, but what was missing was the turiaf-biedrens dynamic. when those 2 play together, some really sick happens. |
No argument from me. I love these games and wish we could see more than 4 each season.
| quote: | | monta's jumpers are getting a lot better too, he's almost back. i think he'll get there by the end of the season, if he isn't hammered to death first. |
He reminds me of a young Iverson as well as Parker. This kid has the chance to be one of the premier guards in the league.
| quote: | | but what the ! can we get rid of don nelson and find a coach that gives a ?!?!! |
Nellie is gonna be very focused on winning between now and next season. He's only ~35 wins away from tying Lenny Wilkins for most victories by an NBA coach. But what happens after that 36th victory? Who knows? Bottom line is the Warriors need more big bodies to compete in the West, especially with teams like Denver and LAL that can score at the same pace. |

i do agree that the Warriors need a big man. It was hard to stop Gasol
but still... the lakers |

What's that Billy? I couldn't hear you. You have to speak much louder when you're 25.5 games behind us... |

It's ok, I'm only a fairweather fan. I'll start hating at the first sign of failing. |

biedrens is one of the best centers in the league. i don't know where you get the idea that him being out is anything less than a gift to you. bynum is injury-prone so you'll be talking about "what if he was healthy" a lot. our size makes the game tougher on us, but it didn't hinder our domination of this one. it was the lack of balanced pt imo. it was obvious in the 4th quarter our starters we exhausted and our bench is more than capable of carrying a lead, especially throughout the game rather than the last 6 min. they were just never given the chance because nelson has this fear that once jackson sits the other team will go on a 10 point run or some . well look what happened: they did it anyway because of fatigue. i would love it if we backdoored our way into the playoffs just to get another 7 games with the lakers. but with don nelson coaching, not only is there no chance of that, but what would be the point? |

GSW is PHO reincarnate. Very entertaining in their up-tempo style, but not built for the long haul. I think the Lakers would take your Pepsi challenge with a healthy roster any day of the week.
Oh, and 1300 wins for Nellie speaks for itself. |
