What is Baron gonna do???

celicadriven27 — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 05:39:15 -0000

Just sitting here thinking, what is Baron going to do know that he is about to sign a contract with a team with no other superstars. A clips team that looks like it has barely anything? Could he still retract the clips offer and test the market? Or could the Warriors possibly get him back for a little less? Just want to see what people think Baron should do. Also, would all the haters welcome Baron back with open arms.

Violet Palmer- WORST NBA REF

celicadriven27 — Sun, 10 Feb 2008 20:20:23 -0000

I was at the game last night and I noticed just how bad Violet Palmer is a ref. She makes way too many questionable calls against the Warriors. I noticed the same things at the Minnesota game. She can't distinguish a block and a charge. She is way to inconsistent and doesn't seem like she knows what she is doing. Anybody else noticing this? Wonder why the league doesn't get on her for such bad officiating.

Hack-a-Boone? Good Or Bad Strategy?

Just wanted to see what other people thought of Nellie's decision to just foul Boone? Was at the game and seemed kinda ridiculous and got quite old. It had its effect because it kept New Jersey from getting into a solid rhythm, but it also threw off the Warriors too. Also it couldn't be good for belenelli's confidence. All in all, is this what we have to resort to now-a-days? Just shows how much we need another inside presence BADLY!!..just wanted to see what other people thought on the strategy though.

Gary Payton Idea??

"Gary's interest is only with teams he can play with and compete with to win a championship," Goodwin said.

Just read an article from the Boston Globe saying Gary Payton wants to play again and feels that he can help the Celtics, but the Celtics haven't shown the same interest. So I was thinking what if the Warriors signed him to the veteran league minimum of $1.2 million. Gary is not only a hometown native, but he was an NBA all-defensive player, and has playoff experience. I think it would be a more cost-effective way to replace Hudson, if its true he is going to done for the season. The only drawback I see to it, is that he is 39, and if he would be able to keep up playing nellie-ball. But supposedly, his agent said Payton was in good shape. Sorry the kind of unorganized post, for its my first one. But I just wondering what other people would think of the idea.
