“if you don’t want to be booed, make some freaking shots.”

Comment by a moron. What good does booing do? You think he’s trying to miss shots?

Vlad comes across as a pretty good player defensively and rebounding. If his shot ever comes around, he will be a valuable addition. Great attitude. Great comment. An adult.

The only way booing makes any sense is if a player continually tries shots where he has a very low likelihood of success. Like Maggette. There’s a situation where the booing may have actually gotten across to him that fans don’t like him taking three point shots because he’s so bad at it. He’s actually playing much smarter now. But Vlad is an intelligent player and believe me dies a little every shot he clunks. I hope his shot cmes around, but regardless I like the guy.

Corey Magette should had said the same thing after the fans booed him instead of crying like a baby in the paper.

Kobe24- Not exactly how I would have worded it-but its a heartfelt sentiment you have there, and many of us agree.

F-U Nellie!!!! you need to get another coaching job else where.
Leave the Warriors alone.
Haven’t you seen we suffered long enough!!!

Please also take your entire coaching staff as well as your punk ass VP/Rowell and your butt buddy Riley out the door.
You guys are stinking up the place.

Man we didn’t come to see you old farts coach b-ball.
We came to see the players play….

You’re right Fierce, the season is over when the Warriors are thinking about another “D” league callup. But, the season was over at the opening tip off in November. This is a bad team with one legitimate superstar. The fans need to keep booing the product, not necessarily the players, and stop buying tickets. Warrior fans are stuck in a kind of Kubler Ross(5 stages of grief) environment; hope, disappointment, anger, acceptance, boredom. Every year it’s the same old same old. They never learn that until the owner leaves and the roster gets legitimate stars to support Monta, plus some in the paint defense, it’s always going to be “wait till next year”. Out of the last 15 years how many winning seasons have they had? In the last 15 years, how many other bad teams(Portland and Atlanta come to mind) have turned it around and become winners? In the past 15 years how many good teams can lose key players(Houston, Utah, San Antonio are three) during key parts of the season, and still make the playoffs? Give up Warrior fans and start enjoying the good things in life instead of investing your hope and dreams in a perpetually doomed franchise. There should be a sign at all entrances to Oracle saying, “abandon hope all who enter here”, except for the visiting team of course.

Or maybe I should say it makes me wonder if our coaching staff enforces the becoming a facilitator concept. They can teach until they are blue in the face, right. That doesn’t mean anyone will take action.

Yeah, I like the booing in the case where the coaches don’t yank a player for repeatedly making stupid decisions, i.e. Maggette on occasion. In Vlad’s case, taking wide open shots whenever he can should not be frowned on by the fans. The guy is a shooter. He needs to shoot the rock to get out of his slump. Now if he has missed say three in a row and or is cold as a witches tit, then it is time to become a facilitator. It makes me wonder if our coaching staff ever teaches that concept.
