The Tuesday Night Quarterback has already taken Second Guess Management to the next level. But your strategy would create one hell of a Point Guard. With true 360 Surround HD Hindsight in 20/20 we’d have the hardwood version of Nicholas Cage in Next.

Whoa. Soooo THAT explains the phenomenon when my me and my buddies get worked playing ball in the park and the other team cries out “NEXT!”

If you’ve ever played serious basketball, even at the amateur level, you would know how a bad night’s sleep affects your next day’s performance. This is especially true for your shooting touch (witness BD’s poor shooting performance, especially from the foul-line).

I can understand how important this Sundance event is for BD. No question that it IS a big deal. If it were me, I’d still go to Utah, but call it a night earlier, and fly back to the Bay the same night to get a better night’s sleep on my own bed.

But again, it’s his “choice”, but his choices are a good indicator on what he values most.

He talks bigger than his actual commitment to winning and bringing the team back to the playoffs. Nash, Garnet, nor Duncan would have done it unless it was a family emergency. Baron defintely talks bigger than his actual actions.

And this is from a player who thinks he deserves a max raise from his current $16.4 million/yr salary, and that he deserves to be an All-Star (I assumes he thinks so even though he says he doesn’t care).

I don’t think there’s any right or wrong for his actions. It just shows that he’s more of a $10-13M player instead of a max salary (nor $16.4M) player. His potential employers (the Warriors and the other 29 NBA teams) will notice this action.

Again, I totally agreed that Baron is entitled to do whatever he wants, but it just shows whether you can depend your franchise on him.

And for those who actually works a job with prospect, one would understand that if you are striking for a bonus/promotion/pay raise, you would have worked extra hard (overtime/weekend/at home) to work on an important project. Instead of arriving and leaving on time and barely making the deadline fulfulling the minimum acceptable requirements.

Just ignore the trolls — they’re a waste of space.

As for your point, I would be harder on Davis if the film wasn’t a substantive documentary. If Davis was producing Scooby Doo IV, I might be more skeptical. But he put his money behind a hard-to-get-made, hard-to-market-doc about gang life in L.A., where he’s from — so it seems like it was a personal project, as much as self-aggrandizing. And as one of your earlier posters said, Sundance is really important for marketing these kinds of films.

That said, I’d feel better if Davis hadn’t played so bad. But as other people have said, everybody played badly. They need a blue-collar, lunchbox guy to set the tone. Bring back Larry Smith! (They could use the rebounding).

OH… and PS… to those of you that are talking smack to Marcus. I have a feeling you are flipping burgers for a living and would easily be able to jet off to Sundance on Sunday, take a bong rip Monday morning and be off on your merrier way back to the local burger joint like any other day.

Go WARRIORS!!

what i think it comes down to is that when you’re part of a team, you have a commitment to fulfill to each one of your teammates. you have to be ready to play at your highest level night in and night out. being a leader, as is baron, your responsibility becomes even greater. romo is the leader in dallas, which is what made his situation worse. same with vince when he was in toronto.

where going to sundance and losing to the t’wolves at home with ryan gomes dropping 35 in the oracle after a 4-game road trip happens….

the NBA. where amazing happens.
