Crucifido's Corner: Lakers vs. Warriors (Game 70 3/23/08)
clublakers.com 3/24/2008 — It was a bright and sunny day here in So Cal. The hybrid summer/spring season felt like it officially kicked in. As the sun began to set and the Lakers took the court against the Warriors, the day would hopefully continue to on its pace with a Laker win.
However, the great day led to a disappointing game from the purple and gold. The game wasn’t without its positives, but overall it was a ...

Bad Call? I Think Not... Move On Oakland
laballtalk.com 3/25/2008 — In last nights game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors there was plenty of complaining from both sides. The Warriors stole the first game of the home and home set on Sunday at the Staples Center and the Lakers were prepared to battle in Oakland last night. The Warriors came out strong, again, took an 11 point lead at halftime, and again, managed to blow the lead...

The Warrior’s lost a heart-breaker 123-119 against the Lakers in the second half of a back-to-back Monday. After blowing a big halftime the Dubs, they staged a late rally to send the game to OT. Lamar Odom hit a layup with under ten seconds to go in the extra period and a questionable Monta Ellis offensive foul on the final inbound iced the game.
The call drew the ire of the Warrior’s ...

I hated the Lakers before Monday night. I hated their fans showing up in my building twice a year chanting MVP, the smugness and entitlement with which the entire franchise operates, and the all-too-predictable results of our match-ups. Sunday night, it looked like the Warriors might be working their way past all of [...]

It's throwback night at the arena, so the Lakers are wearing the old school mid/late eighties home jerseys, while the Warriors are in their blue/gold numbers from back in the day. I'm not sure there's a team that's reworked their look to the degree that GSW has over the years. Pretty mellow pregame intros at Oracle, at least in terms of pyrotechnics. Just a lot of cheering, flashing lights, ...

In Case You'd Forgotten, Stephen Jackson Makes Love to Pressure —
FanHouse
Very entertaining game last night between the Warriors and Lakers. L.A. wasn't ready for the frenetic pace that the Warriors play at, and turned the ball over 14 times in the first half on the way to falling behind by 23 at the break. The Lakers made a furious comeback, eventually taking a two point lead with under four minutes to play. But Stephen Jackson hit two clutch threes in the final ...

Much like my March Madness bracket, the outcome of NBA games did not turn out as I expected. The Golden State Warriors rode into Los Angeles, against the Lakers, Sunday night and came away with an improbable win. Prior to the win, the Warriors had lost 9 straight in LA against the Lakers.
Stephen Jackson was money with two threes in the span of 40 seconds at the end of the game to preserve ...

Maybe it takes nearly blowing a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter to prove the mettle of the Golden State Warriors; Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers proved to be one of the sternest tests for Golden State thus far as they nearly threw away a 26-point lead. Thankfully for the Warriors, Stephen Jackson drained a pair of three-pointers in the final 38.5 seconds of the ...

This should have been one of those memorable games for the Lakers. Unfortunately, Stephen Jackson spoiled it. It’s amazing that the Lakers could score 111 points on 41% shooting and 8-27 threes. How did the Lakers jack up more threes than the Warriors? Kobe had 9 alone!
The biggest problem for the Lakers was the fast pace which led to 18 turnovers. The Lakers just didn’t take care of the ...
