LOL

Biedrins is a crazy mofo.

So sad that this year highlight is just a few dunks and a few blocks. Nothing spectacular.

Players other players don't like on their team

Players other players don't like on their team

Interesting.

Ron Artest - Unstable I understand
Marbury- Perpetual Whiner

but why Kobe? Gil? and Stephen Jackson?

Gil looks like a great team mate. Is it because he's forever injured. What about Kobe? the guy plays through 2 dislocated finger and is still incredible? are NBA players seriously crazy?

and why Jackson? what has he done that makes so man players dislike him? maybe the whining to the refs? that probably annoys other players.

Players I am suprised are not on the list
Bruce Bowen
Tracy McGrady

So hooked on economics is Dumars, an agent testifies, he was prepared to deal treasured Tayshaun Prince for Stephen Jackson whose contract was set to terminate after next season. When the Warriors committed to New Jack City for a three-year extension, Detroit's purported proposal came off the table.

GSOM members in the wild

GSOM members in the wild

Shout out to the guy wearing the GSOM Lil Dub shirt at the Costco in Sunnyvale today.. was going to say hi but you were with your girl so didn't want to disturb. Whoever you are.. HI!

For all this talk about a exciting western playoff..

saintdee — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 00:11:49 -0000

It sure seems like we will see 2 sweeps.. Lakers and Spurs are going to sweep the Nuggets and Suns respectively. Utah already dominated Rockets in Hou. Utah is pretty much going to win that one. I think Hornets Mavericks might be exciting but after seeing Hornets dominating the Mavs the first two game I don't see the Mavs coming back and winning. So much hype went into this playoff that the results is such a disappointment. Even though the records are so close there still seems like a huge disparity in skill.

It seems like the East is more exciting than the West. Philly beating Detroit is inspirational much like Warriors winning. Its nice to see that. Raps and Magics is also a good close series. Not much disparity in skill. Cleveland and Wizards also seem evenly matched. The only sure thing is Celtics over Hawks.

I might also add that I am also secretly happy we didn't have to play the Lakers. Seems like they are running at all cylinder hitting shots and passing really well. Gasol is a absolute monster like a really really scary monster.

Bay Area Against Dallas Part 2

With a victory over Calgary, the SJS will face the Dallas Stars minus the upset part of course. But it would be good if we were to beat them again!

Lets all become laker fans during the first round and hope they get the top seed. I want to see the Lakers eliminate the Nuggets in the first round. That would make me feel better.. seeing the overpaid Nuggets get trounced by Kobe and co.

Is Matt Barnes worth keeping?

saintdee — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 05:52:54 -0000

I've been thinking of how poorly Matt has been playing. I know he lost his mom this year and it might be a factor for his recent poor play. I only say he is playing poorly because it seems like Nelson is less inclined to play Barnes recently in favor of Croshere, Pietrus, Buke and Wright, and Barnes hasn't shown the ability to be offensively productive or defensively excellent like Pietrus can be.

So with the impending resigning bonaza this summer. Will Barnes stay? Personally I think its worth keeping Barnes if its a low price like 1-3 mill a year like this year. Barnes brings a lot of heart and he is the only one willing to foul aggressively. We know he can play and he is in my mind one of the best passers on the team and truly a product of Nelson's system. Theres no one else Nelson trusts to throw that inbound pass when the game is on the line and he is a captain so theres gotta be a lotta love for him in the locker room. I've also never heard him complain about playing time or playing out of position. I think he truly appreciates the opportunity to play.

What do you guys think? Cut Barnes to make room for a free agent? or keep him for his passing and potential contributions?
