The Warriors got the players that are available and willing to play for them. Riley has done a very good job of signing the players we have now, like DLee, DWright, Carney, Amundson, Udoh, JLin and Acie Law. These are players most teams would like to be in their roster. Granting that there are better players than these guys, those players are either not available or not willing to play for GSW. If you knew this, you would have lauded Riley for the guys he was able to recruit. If you are a true fan, you must support your team. Constructive criticisms are okay, but calling them clowns, etc. with unrreasonable expectations reflect poorly your support, as if your only option is to be a Warriors fan.

Agree with Tim. That Dallas gm is Smart’s fault, no Plan B, no setup play and experience to win tight gms.GS needs an experienced COACH, bckup,solid PG, ASAP. They might make a move by Feb. too late. There’s always be next year..bottomline..expect playing with Clippers spot.Playoff??what playoff???

Fire Smart and bring back Nellie. This team is boring. They win ugly and lose uglier. Nellie could beat this group with a decent point guard and a bunch of D leaguers in a 7 game series. Tolliver would really help much more than all the other bench players. CJ too, Morrow and Mags. Pathetic management and worse coach. Why did you guys in the media hate Nellie so much? Who else could go into Dallas with 6 healthy guys and come out with a win?

team clearly needs some more firepower. I would suggest trading VladRad & Gadzuric’s expirings, Brandon Wright & a #2 for Gilbert Arenas. I think he would go for a 6th man role given state of his career & the appeal to his ego of redeeming himself where he started his career & where fans would really embrace him if he could put team on path to playoffs. You think Wash would go for MTII?

The Warriors are soft.. thats for sure. Monta is great, but he was so weak in his defense of Jason Terry, he was embarrassed by “the Jet”. He over played him every time, and Terry blew right by him. Very poor effort by Monta.

As for David Lee, he was horrible, but I feel for the guy. He was fouled ALL GAME LONG by Nowitzki and the other hacks Dallas brought in, especially on that “block” at the end of the 4th quarter. Dirk clearly hit Lee on the arm as Lee went up with the ball, but no foul was called. Not that it would have mattered, the Warriors were actually less than 50% from the line for the game.

That is horse crap. These are NBA players. completely unacceptable.

Oh, and Reggie Williams does not belong in the NBA. He has NO handles, and makes absolutely horrible decisions with the basketball. He should be demoted to the D League immediately. The Warriors need another option at small forward. Too bad Azibuke is rotting on the bench for the Knicks. The Warriors sure could use him right about now..

Good story. Thanks. I like the team chemistry but the talent level needs to improve. Monta needs to learn defense and work it, Curry seems to be improving in that area.

Injuries and not enough talent on the bench are leading to losses. We lost too many wing players from the trades.

glad larry riley isn’t judging the team by wins and losses, how lame! i mean, wins are so overrated. doesn’t he know fans just want to have a great time out?

fire this clown now!

notice too how since the team has started losing (read: playing to it’s actual potential) guber and lacob have disappeared from the media. reminds me of someone… can’t remember his name, tho…

brilliant fluff piece in the Merc today, MT2! way to dig into the hard issues. riley says the team isn’t playing well because everybody is hurt? oh really? who is the guy who put this bunch of Mr. Glass’s together? they didn’t even do enough homework on their draft pick, who was likely hurt before the draft.

it doesn’t take a genius to see that this team was horribly flawed and that the bench was non-existent, many folks right here on this blog called that one. yet riley, with a free pass from you, still isn’t sure of the team he’s got. meanwhile Coach still doesn’t have a backup PG, do you think that riley knows that? or is he still “evaluating?” perhaps it will take him 20 more games to figure it out.

watson, maggette, morrow > bell, gadzuric, carney

^^apparently, however, they guy collecting the checks to understand that, doesn’t.

Just because Vlad isn’t playing doesn’t mean he ain’t busting his ass in practice. He was a Laker, a witness to how a championship team prepares. If he’s calling out guys it’s a bad sign.
