The post-Jackson Warriors have looked much better, despite being down half a roster and playing some of the East’s better teams at the tail end of a road trip. Friday night the team returns home — and even gets an extra body from the D-League in the form of 6-11, 240 Chris ...

With 8:17 left in the third quarter, the Warriors found themselves tied 55-55 with Boston Celtics. When the third quarter expired, they were down by 12. Two changes played major parts in the collapse. After giving Stephen Curry an extended 20 minute run in the first half — which saw ...

It took 10 games, 8 injured players, and the trading of Stephen Jackson, but the Warriors finally gave fans a sustained look at the potential this team holds. The Warriors looked as gutsy and as cohesive as we’ve seen in months, stretching back to last season, in their 108-114 loss to ...

John Wooden once observed that “things turn out best for people who make the best of the way things turn out.” For the Warriors, things have turned out far from how they planned in this young season. Down to six healthy bodies (assuming Bell and Radmanovic can’t suit up in ...

Our long national nightmare is over — or at least our three-month nightmare of a disgruntled Stephen Jackson trying to force his way off the team. Jackson got his wish, the Warriors largely get to hit the reset button, and hopefully everyone will be better off for it. I doubt Bell and ...

Something special happened this weekend in the crazy world of the Warriors. No, it wasn’t the resounding thumping of the 1-9 Knicks, or the enabling Brandan Jennings’ spectacular rookie performance. It was something far rarer than a win over an awful team or a 50-point performance ...

Saturday’s match-up against the Bucks should provide a good measure of where the Warriors stand. The Bucks are a solid defensive team, have a decent low-post threat (Bogut), and a big, offensively gifted point guard (Jennings). At the same time, they’re still relatively young and ...

The Warriors needed a win desperately Friday night in New York, and they resorted to desperate measures to get one. In a throwback to the middle of last season, Stephen Jackson played 30 seconds short of a full game and Ellis logged 40 minutes, despite Saturday’s back-to-back game ...

With the Monta Ellis / Don Nelson fallout now being played out in front of reporters , there’s not much left to write or say. For those following the team closely, this is just the other shoe dropping — confirmation of what has been conveyed in body language and on-the-court ...

With Stephen Jackson’s future as a Warrior more uncertain than a Jackson skip-pass through traffic, it’s only fitting that the team kick off its first major road trip in Indiana. The Pacers could pose some problems for the Warriors down low — Hibbert and Murphy (if he plays) ...

Backed into a humiliating corner following two demoralizing blowouts, the Warriors’ finally delivered a real game. And what a game it was. The 146-105 score captures just how thoroughly the Warriors obliterated the Timberwolves, finally playing the running, flying, scraping style that ...

Everything’s fine. Nothing to worry about here. The Kings just beat us by double digits — without their best player and less than 24 hours after playing in Utah — but I’m sure we would have won with Ronny Turiaf back on the bench, better foul shooting, and fair ...

Friday’s loss to the Clippers was so bad that the fans sitting courtside next to Don Nelson — literally the best seats in the house — got up and left sometime during the fourth quarter. Nelson probably would have liked to do the same. His very brief post-game comments ...

Fresh off their first win of the season, the Warriors should be looking to build some sort of momentum in an entirely winnable game against the Clippers. Still, the Warriors likely will be smaller — thanks to Andris’ injured back — and more challenged defensively — ...

It took the Warriors ten quarters of basketball, but just after the half Wednesday night against the Memphis Grizzlies, the five players running up and down the court finally looked like a team. Granted, it’s only start — but given what came before it, something to build on is ...

John F. Kennedy once wrote that “success has a thousand fathers, but defeat is an orphan.” The Warriors are just two games into their young season, but the results are already stomach-churning. And while the ways in which they’re failing may be obvious — ball movement, ...

Meet the new Warriors, same as the old Warriors. There were moments in their opening night 108-108 loss to the Rockets when I was fooled into thinking things had changed. Nelson started two bigs to protect the paint, Stephen Curry distributed the ball and ran perfectly executed fast breaks, ...

Around 5:30 Tuesday evening — roughly 24 hours before the Warriors tip off their 09-10 season — the Bay Bridge snapped. All the Warriors can do now is hope it’s not an omen. The Warriors, like the Bridge, have suffered nearly two decades of neglect in the wake of abrupt ...

With the 09-10 season about to tip off, it’s time once again for that annual exercise in crystal-ball reading: the win-loss prediction. There are so many variables that come into play with basketball records — injuries, trades, feuds with coaches, rookie development or lack thereof ...
