A lil sumthin regarding your Oakland Warriors

So, the season has not started off splendidly for the Warriors. In fact the win column has been somewhat barren since Baron departed and Monta injured himself scootering or po-go sticking or whatever the hell he was doing. Nonetheless, there have been some bright spots for the 4-6 Warriors. Case in point: the previously anonymous Anthony Morrow who went off for 37 the other night versus the hapless Clippers in his first ever NBA start. I won't indulge in too much cliché verbiage about the rise of the young gun with dumb-ass stroke, but here are the highlights and a post game interview. Cuzzin goes to work.


As we are still early in the year, dudes like Morrow can rev up that underdog Oakland mentality. And once Monta comes back and takes the healm, I think we may be able to make a run man. Below, Warrior faithful and courtside fixture, Mistah FAB offers his thoughts on the season.


And just because Matt Barnes is a sav and a Warrior at heart, here is the skirmish he instigated the other night. Excuse the blind Rocket announcers who seem to think 1. Steve Nash somehow escalated the situation when he was blatantly pushed by T-Mac and 2. That McGrady wasn't bowled over by Shaq, but instead restrained by Yao. Sure. Either way I love a good fight, flawed though I may be for that appreciation.

What up CHL, I just found out today that our boys swapped disgruntled forward Al Harrington for high-scoring guard Jamal Crawford. As a fan of Nellie's uptempo game, I think Crawford is a great fit; however, It seems as though our backcourt's getting a little crowded, and with Morrow breaking out, I don't exactly see what this trade was meant for, except to cut off some loose weight. Much respect to Al, cuz I loved his versatility and heart, he wasn't fitting into the system anymore and I can understand Mullin's direction. If Crawford can drop the 20+ he's averaged the last couple years, things seem to be looking up for the boys in blue. Your thoughts

Yeah, I agree that the back court is a bit thick. When Monta returns it will be interesting for sure. But Harrington has been bitching for awhile, so I believe this was just to get him on the road. Morrow is doing great, but he's young and it would be irresponsible to overwhelm him at this juncture, so padding the position is prolly good. I dont know too much about Crawford, but I knwo Al had to go.
