Hell yeah! The minute Jackson took that first three, I knew it was in. The second one was a pure shot, too. Jackson just going off these last two possessions. Holy sh*t!
What a crazy fuckin game! Frickin nerve-racking. I am going to be up until midnight thinking about how they shot the three every single damn time, yet still won the game. Wow! What a game!
man, EVERYTHING went wrong for us, but defense in the fourth pulled us through.
Awesome win. These are games that typical warrior teams just don't win, period. We are starting to get that closer mentality on the road and I love it.
Warriors PWN

i am sick look at mini moore...keep yelling some stupid words....

So that's what they mean by saying "offense sells tickets, defense wins games."
Defense. Captain Jack coming up huge when nothing was going on offensively. Matt Barnes hustling. This team was out of sync for the majority of the night. Yet, we pulled it out. DEFENSE + BELIEVE = WIN. This game got me pumped.

Yeah holy crap, Kings FG's 2-23 in the fourth? That reminds me of a time a few years ago when the Warriors scored 2 points in the fourth quarter.

After tonight's performance, I think I've completely forgotten that ever happened.
that game had me pulling my hair out, everything from FSN ****ing up the broadcast to the horrible foul calls to the terrible shooting by the W's....the game was ugly but we found a way to win!!!!! If we would have lost I may have thrown my remote through my television, luckily we won!!!

agreed, this is the most frustrating win i remember.

Though I give a lot of credit to the Warriors for pulling this one out it must be said that the Kings are a pathetic team. Artest is pretty good in the post and Martin can score from a lot of places but man, apart from those two there's hardly a player I'd even want on the roster in there (Bibby is okay I guess but he's out for another couple of months).

iono..i think id take brad miller. he's really stepped up and improved from last year's slump. im not saying id trade for him or replace a warrior with him...well unless we could replace POB for him at the same salary POB is getting

Can't comment much about the game. Since we started the road trip, I've only been able to watch the games at Toronto, Boston and the last one against Phoenix. Seems like the games against bad teams are not interesting enough for TVs.
From what I've read here and in recaps, defense saved the day in the last quarter, that deserves a

and a

.
Now, after the dumbest paragraph of the whole thread, here are my comments (of course, from the boxscore. Keep that in mind if you think I'm talking out of my ass):
1.- Matt Barnes deserves an outstanding ovation for what he's doing at this difficult times for him and his family.
2.- Azu doesn't play as well if he doesn't start. And Monta can still do his job from the bench so, while I don't have a problem playing Monta more minutes than Azu, I'd like to keep things like they were at the beginning of the season.
3.- Related to the previous point, Monta looks like he's definitely out of his funk. That's great news. We needed him after the slow start of the season.
4.- Captain Jack is the true MVP of this team. Baron may be the best player (well, not may be... IS), but Captain Jack is as important, or maybe more, than he is.
5.- We played only 8 guys... While that's a good thing from a chemistry point of view (all of them played enough minutes to feel like important members of team), I'm concerned about the long term effects on some players. I mean, Baron keeps playing over 40 minutes every game...
6.- At least for this game the FTs weren't an issue. 80.8% is pretty good. Let's hope it stays that high. If that happens, that may mean around 5 more wins at the end of the seaosn.
7.- Finally, the Warriors are the team that recovered faster from a 0-6 start of the season, back to a .500 record, in league history. Props to Nellie and the players. They deserve it.
