Nobody Knows Anything

by Tanner December 30, 2011

The phrase was coined by William Goldman about Hollywood but it’s equally true in the NBA. Atlanta: They gave $126 to a borderline all-star 2 guard entering his 30′s. Boston: They traded their starting center for a backup small forward when they were a title contender. Charlotte: Michael Jordan can’t name 5 players on their [...]

Game 3 in one sentence

by Tanner December 29, 2011

Warriors 92, Bulls 78. 2-1. Monta played like Mad Max for the first 3 quarters and like Rajon Rondo in the 4th.

Game 2 in one sentence

by Tanner December 26, 2011

Warriors 99, Bulls 91. 1-1. Did I just watch the Golden State Warriors win a basketball game by playing good defense?

Game 82

by Tanner April 13, 2011

Warriors 110, Blazers 86. 36-46. For the 2nd year in a row the Warriors end a (shitty) season with a victory over the Blazers. Last year it was an entertaining 122-116 win in Portland where Monta and Curry combined for 76 points (that ultimately moved them down 1 spot in the lotto and cost them a [...]

Game 81

by Tanner April 11, 2011

Nuggets 134, Warriors 111. 35-46. Who needs Carmelo? Not the Nuggets, apparently. The Nuggets are going to be a dangerous playoff team. They remind me a little bit of the We Believe team. They are erratic and unstable, they have a lot of firepower and if they get going in the right direction, look out. [...]

Game 80

by Tanner April 10, 2011

Kings 104, Warriors 103. 35-45. Probably the last trip to the ol’ barn in Sacramento. Fitting that the last game was en entertaining affair with absolutely nothing at stake for either team. Long live Arco. David Stern would be ashamed of himself for letting the Kings go to Anaheim if he was capable of feeling [...]

Game 79

by Tanner April 6, 2011

Warriors 95, Lakers 87.  35-44. Credit to the Warriors for taking a game the Lakers were perfectly content to give away. Credit to Udoh for finally grabbing some rebounds. He was a big reason the Warriors out-rebounded the Lakers despite Bynum getting 17. Udoh grabbed 8 in 19 minutes after grabbing 1 in each of his [...]

Game 78

by Tanner April 5, 2011

Warriors 108, Blazers 87.  34-44. The Blazers are one of the few good teams that the Warriors match up with pretty well. The Blazer backcourt can’t handle Monta and Steph, Lee can more or less cancel out Aldridge and Camby doesn’t punish people on the block. This was the worst loss of the year for [...]

Game 77

by Tanner April 2, 2011

Warriors 99, Mavericks 92. 33-44. Did the Warriors win this game with defense and some big contributions from bench players? Yeah, I’m pretty sure they did. Strange.
