well the warriors are doing the same thing to the lakers so far tonight if that makes you feel better. The lakers are in danger of losing 3 out of their last 4 and are hitting hte same lull we are.
The warriors actually have a very good young lineup with Biedrins back. Ellis, Curry, Maggette, Randolph and Biedrins may be on the better young lineups in the league. With Turiaf off hte bench. They are playing high energy right now. We and the lakers arent?

I just heard while watching the Warrior-Laker game that we have lost seven strait vs the Warriors in Oakland. That doesn't make any sense. Maybe we have played them a lot at the end of long road trips?

Lakers 13 turnovers...we had 20+...Its not impossible but the opponent would have to be worse than the current Nets for a team to win with that many turnovers.

Just for the record, Rondo stepped to the line with just over 5 minutes remaining and Celtics down 5. From that point on, he made both FTs, shot 3-3 from the floor (including a jumper, a floater, and a layup), had two assists and at least one rebound, all with no turnovers. So much for the theory that he shouldn't be allowed to shoot down the stretch.

I saw the last couple of minutes of the Laker Warrior game, and frankly found it a bit discouraging. The score was 116-114 when the Lakers dominated the last minute and a half, going on an 8-1 run and basically doing what we have failed to do the last two nights (and at home vs Philly) -- put away an inferior team. That is probably what bothers me the most about our play lately; bad teams out-executed us down the stretch on three different occasions.
The good news is that it is only December -- but this team does need to get its act together; their current play will not produce a championship.

The Warriors have like 8-10 players that are interchangeable. Very deep team. However, P2 or not, bad loss.

Depends on what you mean by interchangeable...they have players...but mostly the only good one is Monta Ellis and noone else on their roster can take his place whereas the other starters are interchangeable because they have about as much talent as their backups...which isn't really saying much.

Randolph and Curry have potential. Morrows might be the best undrafted player in recent years. And Maggette is OK. Good, young players, but no superstars or players that could be superstars.
