what a bad night...we lost to a depleated team with one of their top scorers fouling out...and we lost 2 of your starters and one of our reserves...what a way to go out on tnt...very disappointing...and now pacers are going to think three times before trading artest for murphy...major choke job....good thing we have a 5 day rest tho...but bad bad bad night....
saw the game...came away disappointed but not disheartened. true, we had one of our worst quarters of the season, but warriors played extremely well in the 4th. the play where Jrich stole the ball; had he kept it instead and scored, it would've been a 5 pt swing.
warriors also had good D and forced the pacers to take some tough outside shots. unfortunately, the pacers just hit them at the key moments.
anyways, if the rumors are true, i for one will miss murphy's rebounding hustle and attitude. hopefully artest will have learned to keep his mouth shut (or at least to use a neuron or two before opening it or kicking some hapless camerman).

Anyone here think they are out of it becasue of the possible trade? This is pathetic...
Typical Warriors behavior during trade rumor time. They tank, starters get "injured", rookies trying to be "the man" trying to be a hero, no team play and they just look dead. Well that was during the lean years. What the heck was going on tonight? Did management tell the team that somebody was getting traded tonight?

team needs a change if no trades team needs to fire monty and get a coach with some passion. I say Mario Ellie till seasons over.....what do we got to lose?
Mario Ellie looks like a great choice, as I have said before. It just has to be someone that understands to go to the team's strength, which right now includes getting the ball to Diogu, driving the ball and a good team defensive scheme where everyone does their bit not just one guy
lets not get ahead of ourselves here as far as firing monte. i think we need more players who have fire, this is where artest would help. he brings intensity especially on the defensive side of the ball. the warriors are still too passive. we need to get meaner.

But Artest does not solve any inside problems that Murphy isn't doing right now
