#51 If Bogut is such a difference maker or legit why has he never made the Bucks a decent team. The guy can’t even make the all star team in the east.

The W’s currently have NO superstar a couple of above average types the rest being average or below average. No elite or decent team has a roster comparible (worse) than the Warriors.

For those of you who weren’t there, 19,000 fans did not boo Joe Lacob. It was more like a few thousand, while 15,000-plus others were powerless to do anything about it.

On one hand, the boo-birds are paying customers, they were angry, and they have every right to express themselves loudly in that venue. On the other hand, timing is everything, and the timing was bad, overshadowing what should have been a feel-good ceremony for Chris Mullin. That’s what I regret most.

The media will now keep it alive for days and months because they love controversy. Count on it.

Ordinary Fans are very subjective. Real Basketball Fans are objective, patient, and relies on foresight.

Why so quick to judge when we have yet to see if Bogut is a dud? The thing about it however, is Bogut is legitimate. The missing piece in the team. As special as Monta is, the truth of the matter is, there is always a player like him in every draft. What if we decide to get jeremy lamb for his position.

the trade was stupid they could of traded curry for bogut bc jennings doesnt want to stay in milwaukee. bogut is not a top five center yea he gets boards but who doesnt that is 7ft. udoh was starting to play good and at first i felt bad but lacob did try to steal the spotlight when he was never part of mullins era in golden state. but now i dont feel that bad bc lacob will soon realize how much he screwed up. his own fiance didnt talk to him for 3 days after the trade. she even knows how dumb it was lolol…..can someone please agree that udoh was looking promising? i was excited for him.

#35 You’re an opinionated PC wimp. You also appear to know nothing about basketball and proper team management. 20 yrs of consecutive failure and you feel all is well.

Buy a clue pal !

Management blows up an incomplete team still in contention vs. finding the missing piece(s), rebuilding for the who knows how many times. Being the Chicago Cubs of basketball.

You may find it uplifting, but I don’t.

#15 The Griz traded Gasol for his brother, then drafted well and traded for Z. Randolph. How does that compare to the Warriors, who continually draft what they already have and make pathetic one sided trades. The Sonics aka OKC were broke and couldn’t pay free agents R. Lewis (who is now overpaid), they got rid of Allen because they thought he was getting old and over priced. Conversely they drafted well, can you say westbrook and duran and their GM created a balanced roster unlike Riley.

#12 Monta NEVER had quality team mates, specifically a center to play with. Management consistently failed to put together a balanced roster (this year included). Larry Riley consistently passed on great pieces, while simultaneously trading or releasing critical pieces/players, getting virtually noting in return.

Remember; Wade before Shaq and/or Lebron. Paul Pierce before Garnett and Allen. Stars need adequate team mates and a balanced roster

Truly putrid and tasteless by the fans. Sickening. There are a number of words to describe their behavior last night, and none of them are pleasant.

I’ve never been before but now I’m ashamed of the Warrior fans. That episode made us look like idiots.

I’m proud to say I didn’t boo. I was in the stands defending Lacob.

Does anyone really think that if Lacob had gone on before Mullin, that he’d not receive the same treatment? The short-sighted fan was going to express their feelings no matter when Lacob went on. I agree that Lacob probably didn’t need to go on and tell Mullin he was sending his family to Maui, but don’t use that as a reason for booing him.
