what the hell, west looks like Casper in that pic....is he albino?

I say W's get another win, and baron will show this young team whos boss.....Warriors by 14 in this one...

First look at Kevin Durant this season. First look at PJ Carlisemo coaching since the incident. Niice.

How about that Durant Monta matchup at the 2. This should be very winnable. I know we're eventually going to lose a game but I really can't see it happening now. It's not like we're really winning just because we're hitting crazy threes either. Quite a few of the games have been won in spite of poor outside shooting. We're for real.

[TMC]

Apparently, this is the easiest game we've had in a while. And we're on a roll, so everything seems aligned for another win.

Seattle is building for the future and they're doing it the right way, giving lots of minutes to their young guys and watching their vets (semi-vets) to see who's worth re-signing. Of course, that means they're gonna be pretty bad for a couple of years...

Dubs by 12.

It seems like the easiest game all season but it is a danger game for that reason.


Warriors by 10

im assuming that the warriors will get to rest friday instead of practicing. might come out light weight rusty, but should be an easy win. i expect wright to see some time this game.

[ChicagoTom]

I have a hard time guaranteeing a win, particularly one on the road. However, Seattle has not won a game at home and in watching every other team in the league, this is clearly the least talented team of them all. Durant is good, but is not the finished product. Damien Wilkins is streaky, they lack a good point guard and their inside game has some big question marks.

All that being said, the Warriors should not have many problems. I just hope they are not looking past the Sonics to Monday night when the Magic come to town.

Chip shot.

Dubs by 15. Brandan Wright plays the whole 4th quarter.

A few days rest, and a favorable matchup at pretty much every position. As 32 said, I expect this to get out of hand and for the bench to play most of the 4th qtr. Good thing, Baron and co. could use some minutes off the floor. Warriors by 20+ going into the 4th...final is W's by 15.

Our team leaders demolish theirs in every category. They are 2-14, for Christ's sakes. If we lose to them, it will be attributed to 1 of 2 possibilities: (a) Kevin Durant's first dominant NBA game where he puts a crappy team on his shoulders and flat out carries them to a victory... or (b) a total Warrior meltdown.

I don't expect either.

hell, I'll call it a tap in.

I'd equate it in difficulty to the following spelling test:

Hint: A color.

[David Wood]

Can't expect anything but a win. Then again the Sonics are due for a home W.

We win every matchup. Wilcox will eat us up on the glass but it shouldn't matter.

Is Durant really playing SG?
