Game Thread: Dubs @ PHO 2/8/14

No Bogut, and no Lee tonight again


Would love to see Kuzmic out there for atleast 10 mins , otherwise the Morris brothers, Fyre, and whomever else they throw out there are going to have career nights.


Can Dubs pull one out on the road?

And that's what happened. W's were posted up all night, due to a lack of length, but no Kuzmic. I know he's a rookie, but sometimes you have to give it a test drive when your current plan isn't working MJ.

We would of probably won if bogut wasn't out

These couple games off can do bogut and lee some good

Went to this game. Knew we were in trouble when they announced the starting lineups and we had neither Lee or Bogut and Phoenix was starting two seven footers and a 6 foot eight guard. The team was just too small. Phoenix got second chance after second chance and so many offensive boards.

Dubs made a game out of it for 3 and a half quarters but Dragan made Curry look silly on defense and the front court could not protect the basket as time after time they got backed down for an easy lay in. For an old man, O'Neal hung in there nicely and did his best but in the end they were too lazy on defense and too small to defend or rebound.

here's a question: The Warriors could have definitely used some size out there last night. If Kuzmic cannot even get on the floor when Bogut and Lee don't play, what the fuck is he doing on the team?

The Ws won't improve until Avi is traded. He's the greatest impediment to getting better that we have.

True, but a few games might well mean we miss the playoffs. Check the standings. I'm not as upset about this loss as the others where we lost to crappy teams with everyone healthy, but every game counts and they're going to need to win some even when things don't go exactly their way (because they won't most of the time, life rarely goes exactly according to plan).

Now the 8th seed. What a drag this season has been so far

 

[msgkings322]

Tomorrow is almost without question a must-win, vs the 76ers at home

I honestly think iguodala is still hurt to be honest. Nowhere near as explosive of a player he was at the beginning of the season. Was also locking everyone down on defense

Or he's just saving energy and strength for the playoffs?

A big disappointment so far. Jackson just cannot get them to play defense.

The defense is fine. No offensive system is holding us back

It was terible at the Phoenix game on Saturday, especially Curry. I'm sure it had a lot to do with the size difference in the two teams but when you are at the game and can see the whole court I was surprised at how many times defenders did not get back on defense and there was no attempt to block out offensive rebounders. It was really shoddy.

Bogut was out and dragic was on fire

That he was. He was incredible. He made Curry look silly on defense. Curry kept them in the game with some fine shooting of his own though.

What do people think of Brandon bass as a backup 4? Warriors are interested

I'll stick with Barnes.

He's a pretty good defender though
