Tonight's Leastern Conference opponent sported a .350 winning record (or .650 losing record if you want to look at it that way), were without one of their best players, and were down by 13 after the first quarter in their own building. Well anything can happen in this league and that's why you play a full 48 minutes.

Killer Warrior Becomes a Warrior Killer.

Make the jump for what went right, what went wrong, and yes, of course, few thoughts- make that a ton- about the JRich trade so far and how it's working out for the Dubs.  read more »

We're at about the midpoint of the Warriors 2007-2008 season. The good news is that if the regular season ended today the Warriors would be playoff bound for the second year in a row and are only 5.5 games out of the prestigious #1 seed in the mighty Western Conference. The bad news is that they are clinging to only a 0.5 game lead over the Utah Jazz for the right to not count ping pong balls in May.  read more »

2008 NBA Offseason starts off with a bang!

The 2008 NBA free agency period has gotten this offseason off to a bang. It seems that Elton Brand and Baron Davis hatched a plot to make the Los Angeles Clippers more significant, while the two of them can work on their blossoming second careers as movie producers. The Clippers have vaulted themselves into the 10 team battle for the Western Conference playoffs. At this time: Golden State, Sacramento, Seattle, Minnesota and your Memphis Grizzlies seem to be on the outside with the Kings and Warriors probably making moves this summer to join the fight. Davis' defection from NoCal to SoCal leaves the Warriors with enough caproom to offer even a veteran a MAX contract. Accordingly, the rumor mill has Warrior GM Chris Mullin offering Gilbert Arenas $100 million dollars to return to the Bay area. At the time of this writing, Arenas was thought to be leaning toward turning down that ridiculous offer to accept a more retarded offer from the Washington Wizards of 6 years and $127 million dollars. I guess there is no recession in the NBA.  read more »

In the immediate aftermath of this debacle, I assumed it would be a very, very long time before we would know - I mean really know - what happened; how exactly it went off the rails.

Amazingly, we're only in day two after the moratorium and already I feel like it's becoming pretty clear.  I'm connecting some dots, I'm reading between the lines, and obviously I could be wrong.  After all, I've been wrong pretty much continually this calendar year.  But I'm not discouraged.  I figure the odds are now in my favor.  You gotta admire my spirit.

As is the case in almost any disagreement in any endeavor, mistakes were made by all involved.  There is some blame to be shared.  But it's pretty hard to look at what happened, and what is now being said, and not place the lion's share of culpability on Elton Brand and his agent David Falk.  read more »

This is big. Bigger than Dennis Rodman teamming up with former foes Scottie Pippen and the Bulls in the late 90's. Bigger than Kobe and Phil together on the Lakers. Bigger than Shaq and Kobe hi-fiving on Xmas day. Yes this is Nas and Jay-Z making up big.

Hmmm, dozen you say?

Now that was close. Way too close. But still some serious Funleavy with the Warriors coming back from an unthinkable 17 points and overcoming a deep thigh bruise to Andris Biedrins and Stephen Jackson battling the flu to beat the Indiana Pacers.

He just questions the method sometimes used by Griz owner Michael Heisley, who Cuban communicates with as a friend. Asked to elaborate on his critical comments regarding the Grizzlies' decision to unload Pau Gasol for essentially draft picks and salary-cap relief, Cuban reiterated that the Griz could have received more for the skilled 7-footer.  read more »
