		<description><![CDATA[Everyone makes valid points.  But, remember the main important thing:  Nellie is narrow minded and hard headed, and won&#039;t EVER tell Jax to give up the ball.

I watch Lakers, Hornets and majority of playoff teams, and their offenses constantly move the ball around and guys are rotating without the ball.  You think to yourself geez, if only Nellie would coach the W&#039;s to do the same thing on a consistent basis we would get more wins.
 I remember when we played the Suns a year or two ago and beat them, that particular game the W&#039;s were moving the ball around so much they could have beaten anyone. They really looked AWESOME.  Pretty sad that was a RARE display, never to be really seen again.
Since then we won games but not like that one.  Our majority of wins comes when the W&#039;s are shooting unusually high percentage, and it&#039;s a street game of run and gun.

Nellie has no REAL half court game system.  If the W&#039;s can&#039;t shoot good for the evening were pretty much sunk, and will get the loss.

Were doomed for another three years with the extension for Nellie.

Santa please drop the sled on Rowell&#039;s and Cohen&#039;s head, and with extension or not get rid on Nellie.  It would not be the first that the W&#039;s would be paying salary to a fired head coach!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I received notice that the Ws are playing the Heat tonight and are having a two-for-one &quot;Holiday&quot; ticket special.

Some call it Holiday specials but others call it a Fire sale.

Get the team back on track and the Ws won&#039;t need specials.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is every Warrior fan blind? I see the same problem cropping up that has dogged Don Nelson&#039;s coaching career. He has an inability to coach/manage young players. He usually ends up getting rid of them, or ruining their career.

I hate the Bay Area sportswriters, they think Nelson walks on water, and is above reproach. I think not. This team does not have a starting lineup or a plan for rotation. Every game its something new. I you have ever played any sport, you have a need to know what the h--- is going on in order to prepare. This notiication 10 minutes before gametime is ridiculous.

If a player is out at night partying, or caught up in drugs, or other activities the press will crucify them. When this coach with his arrogance is obviously in over his head, they (sports journalist)let it pass.

You all should be ashamed of yourselves. You guys ran Bill Madlock out of town, T.O., Dave Kingman, Barry Bonds, and Chris Webber. They all have had great careers, but now this coach needs to be in your journalistic crosshairs. Have the guts to say something about the way this team is being ruined. They are a .750 club with the current talent, but they will never reach their potential while under Nelson&#039;s tutelage. He needs to change or there needs to be a change..... Avery Johnson is out there...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anyone who thinks this team has the personnel to be a good team should watch some other NBA games, ones with good teams playing.  Randolph is NOT a good defender - he may well be and he&#039;s got decent instincts for a guy who&#039;s so young but he can&#039;t hold position against bigger players, goes for the block too often, and gets burned frequently.  In fact, there isn&#039;t an above-average defender on this team except on the days Jackson feels like it.

The problem is the front office wouldn&#039;t take a shot at keeping things together but didn&#039;t have the balls to break it all up and rebuild, which sticks the roster at somewhere below mediocre and sticks Nelson with a collection of mismatched pieces and no clear direction.

They need to play the young guys, trade a couple of guys for whatever picks or expiring contracts they can manage, and take their lumps this year.  That goes against management&#039;s theory that if you are mediocre but sometimes entertaining people will pay for tickets and merchandise, of course, but there it is.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[WowI feel sorry for jamal. he came form a similar system that stretched making the extra pass to a team full of guys all wanna shoot but who are not good enough to carry a team.

nelson needs to make up his mind if Crawford is the point guard than establish that team wide and have him focus on distribution .It must be a nightmare to play pg on a team in which every player will bring the ball up at anytime and just jack up a shot. If you dont allow the pg to bring it up as much as possible then you can never set or control your tempo. Thats why the Warriors have blown all these leads.

Put Crawford at point and if you want Jax and maggette to chuck well then have him feed them but everyone else who comes in are role players who should be looking to pass the ball.

Not bring it up

Not take shots out of the offensive flow

He should start a big at PF Wright,Turiaf,Randolph take his pick and start them and give them starter minutes slide Buke and Morrow into backup wing spots and play them accordingly ,NEVER I MEAN NEVER play Maggette at PF again its just a waste of time because he doesnt board .

You cant play smallball with guys who dont like to screen.You cant run all isolations against good defensive teams and expect to win a 48 minute game. Maggette hit a couple of shots but the knicks caught on and we just kept trying to post him up instead of using screens to free him.Teams know the warriors dont pick ,dont move and are prone for someone other than the point guard to do too much and then turn it over.

He needs to start benching Buke,Maggette,Randolph after these dumb careless over dribbling turnovers.Give the ball to the point guard because if you dont and you turn it over you are immediately coming out.]]></description>
