I got it right with the Rockets outside guns but with TMac out, a great win for the team! What a performance! JRich came alive in the 2nd half and he is showing that he STILL is a special player that is a star. Baron did it all early. Great team effort and this win makes it alot easier!

Unfortunately, both the Clippers and Nuggets won last night. It would have been nice if the Clips would have lost to the Lakers, but it was not to be.

Seven games to go for the Warriors. The way things are going for the Clippers, the Warriors might need to win six of those to get in. That is a tough task, but it is possible.

I'm beginning to be with you on this, Chi-Tom. All along I thought 41-41 would guarantee a berth, but the way the clippers are playing, the ws probably have to go 6-1 and finish 42-40. If ANYONE on this board had said 10 games ago the Ws were going to go 7-3 and beat the Suns and Rockets and lose a game in the standings to the clippers, they would have cleaned up on a bet, but that is exactly what has happened. I can squint my eyes and see the ws going 5-2 the rest of the way, but 6-1? Man...to do that, they can afford a loss to the Spurs in SA and that is it...bizarre, but I could win that bottle from Migya and the ws could miss the playoffs.

The Warriors won you were wrong

Nice one, Barnes, hope you stay a while.

Doesn't that make the bet null and void?

nah, the bet was you said the ws were more likely to go 4-16 than 14-6 in last 20 and the wager was on. It would be bitter grey goose, but I would still drink it

Not shiit, want a teddy bear for your intelligence You've been wrong about many things, like dunnyboy becoming an integral part of the team for years to come but you don't see me jump up and down calling you out on it

That's because I haven't been wrong much unlike your daily dud's By the way a gallon of goose should already be on it's way to colt 4 you calling for a tank & predicting a 6-14 record, currently the Warriors are 9-4 & building a bright future like I said all along Mullin would do

I was just kidding. If the team pulls off 14-6 in the last 20, you certainly deserve your bottle
