After a grinding win Friday night, the Warriors start off their road trip with a 0-1 start. The Dubs are 0-2 against the Pistons this season. The Warriors were handed an ugly lost today at The Palace... I'm sure we can blame the NBA for poor scheduling, but when our man Baron Davis goes for 2 points on 1-of-8 shooting we didn't have much of a fighting chance. Detroit manhandled us inside and dominated the boards with 47 rebounds to our 32.
Missing Stars:
Baron Davis - With his last min heroics against the Lakers, Baron goes for 1-of-8 shooting for a big 2pts. Nelli sat Baron early in this game, probably the first game where Baron didn't play 40+ mins. At least Baron finally gets some much needed rest and he can bounce back in time for tomorrow night's game against Memphis.
Monta Ellis - Finishing with 8pts on 2-of-5 shooting. Ellis had a few flashy moments, but overall Monta needs to keep his consistency and stay aggressive. We all love Monta with his unwavering swagger, but he's gotta stay consistent.
Biedrins - Looked like he was being manhandled on the boards going against Wallace and Mcdyess (who had 11 rebs) Once again Beans has trouble going against bigger centers and forwards.
Al Harrington - Back in November... Harringtonn was going on back to back 20+ games... Past few games.. seems like Harrington has fallen off the statline. Going for 3-of-7 for 7pts along with 1 rebs... Harrington needs to step it up!
Stack Jack! - The only starter to score in double figures, but it wasn't enough to bring the Dubs back from a devastating lost.
Barnes - He had a nice all around game. Going for 10pts, 6 boards and 5 assists... Barnes was the only Warrior looking good tonight.
Bukie - My man Bukie was almost non-existant today.
Pietrius "The Phantom" - The phantom of the opera has his mask off and he's still playing like he doesn't deserve his contract extension.
The ROOKs and Croshere:
Marco Belinelli - Here at DubTown... We're hardcore fans of the Italian Stallion and when Belinelli hit his 3, you know we were counting that. He hasn't lived up to his pre-season summer league hype but its good to see him get some long minutes and hopefully boost his confidence.
Brandon Wright - This guy was Ballin! Going for a season and career high of 10pts. Wright looks better and better everytime. I'm excited to see Wright get some playing time... and hopefully gets rotated up to the line-up soon. Out of all the rookies, Wright is really stepping up his game and he's looking smoother everytime we see him out there.
Croshere - I love this guy. Mr. High Basketball IQ. It's nice to see him getting some quality playing time. He can shoot the 3 and is an all-around good shooter. With the Warrior's shooting woes.. Croshere should get some more playing time for some much needed fire power.
The "Man" of the game goes to: Jason Maxiell
- 6 Monstarrr blocks
- 11pts in 26mins
- 4 rebs
- 1 missed Dunk

doood. playing against billups and wallace is pretty tough. But hopefully we can pull this win tomorrow against the grizzlies. Its almost a sure thing, but the grizzlies did pull a win against Magic on Saturday... And the dubs lost against Orlando two weeks ago. If everyone just steps up, then we can do another +30 point win tomorrow.
...doood. Just just to add. All the hardwood classics are sold out. maaaan.
