Ugly loss, as the Warriors appeared to have control of this one but then let it slip away in an extremely poor stretch late in the 4th. It was an odd one throughout, as the pacing was choppy and the fouls seemed constant (especially in the 1st and 4th when the Kings had their best runs).

And good lord, where did Marcus Thornton come from? We all remember him destroying the Warriors in the last meeting, and he hit a couple killer shots at the end of this one.

Now the Dubs head out to Denver — minus Monta Ellis — for the toughest back-to-back in the league. If they’re going to get that 36th win, chances are it’s going to have to come against Portland in the season finale.

We’re down to the final 3 games of the season, with this being the most winnable one left. The Kings-Warriors matchups have generally been entertaining this year, with a couple of big Warriors comebacks to go with the atrocious defensive night the Dubs had in Sacramento a few weeks back.

Once again, I’ll be watching the matchup between the 5th and 6th players taken in this year’s draft. While Ekpe certainly has a lot to work on this summer (offense and rebounding in particular), he’s been a presence defensively and has even looked a bit better when shooting in recent games. Cousins has had his own ups and downs, but I still can’t shake the feeling that he’s exactly the sort of inside presence that the Warriors really need. So it would be nice to see Udoh win the matchup and give us something to feel good about tonight.

Break up the Warriors!

In all seriousness, this has been a tremendous 3-game stretch. These aren’t meaningless end-of-season games for the opposition; the Mavericks, Blazers, and Lakers all had a lot to play for when they faced the Warriors this past week.

The last two games in particular have been a ton of fun to watch, as the Warriors — dare I say it — dominated for most of the second half in both contests. Things got a little hairy at the end of the game last night, but the Dubs hit enough big shots to keep a healthy cushion and even avoid a foul-plagued ending.

Perhaps most impressive, the Warriors out-rebounded the Lakers 50-47. Bynum pulled down 17 boards, but they were able to hold Gasol and (especially) Odom in check. David Lee matched Bynum with 17 boards of his own, making it his second straight impressive double-double. Thanks to the rebounding and turnover (+7) margins, the Warriors ended up with 93 shots to the Lakers 77 — a big part of why they won despite shooting just 39%.

Curry and Ellis put on a nice show, as despite Curry’s cold touch early he hit some big shots at the end to preserve the win. Wright had another cold shooting night, but hit two big 3′s late to keep up the lead and break the Warriors’ single-season record for made 3-pointers. Udoh went scoreless, but pulled down 8 rebounds in 19 minutes — impressive considering the front line he was up against.

Now the Warriors get a few nights off before facing the Kings on Sunday, when they can get to the 36-win mark that they decided to shoot for after the bottom fell out after the All Star break. I know the Warriors have developed a habit of getting hot late in the season when their playoff spot is already decided, but they appear locked into the 11th draft position at this point so might as well see what they can do!

The Warriors welcome the Lakers to Oracle in a game that, as of the email I received from the Warriors at 11:17 this morning, was not sold out. Yikes! Just goes to show how much the fans have checked out on the season at this point.

Which is too bad, because the Warriors have played some of their best ball all season in the last two games. They face their steepest test tonight, as the Lakers will be mad after a close loss to Utah.

If the Warriors can win tonight, then there will definitely be some room for optimism for the first time since the All Star break. Given the minutes the starters played last night in Portland, I can’t say I’m expecting much. But I hope to be wrong!

Great, win, perhaps the Warriors’ most impressive since the win at New Orleans. They absolutely owned the second half, blowing the Blazers out of their own gym. That they did it against a team that’s been red-hot at home and is still fighting for playoff position was huge.

David Lee had his finest game as a Warrior, helping the team to a +7 rebounding advantage by pulling down 20 boards to go with 29 points. Monta and Steph also chimed in with 30 and 28, respectively, and as they mentioned on the postgame show this was the best game these three have played together as a trio.

Amundson gave some great second half minutes off the bench — even hitting his free throws — and while Dorell Wright couldn’t hit a shot to save his life, he didn’t screw things up too badly either as he posted a +21.

Now the Warriors head down to LA to take on the Lakers on the back end of a back-to-back. As the great Fitz just mentioned on the telecast, winning tomorrow would complete the most improbably 3-game winning streak…just about ever.

The Warriors head up to Portland tonight to see if they can get their first road win in 9 tries — against a Trail Blazers team that has won 8 in a row at home. I’m not expecting those streaks to be broken, though it would be great to see the Warriors show some life on the road before the end of the season. Their away record currently stands at 9-30, a mark that needs to be significantly improved upon if they hope to be any sort of a contender next year. But for this year, can they at least try to get to double-digits in road wins?

Really nice win, as the Warriors hung tight throughout, built up a nice little lead in the 4th, and then hung on when the Mavericks made a late run (aided by some poor Warriors’ decision making).

Stat of the game: 22-24. That’s the Warriors mark from the line, 3.2 above their season average in attempts and well above that in terms of makes, and they even managed 4 more attempts than the Mavericks. If they can get to the line — and make them — this team can really hang in there.

Monta kept the team in the game through the first three quarters, then went strangely silent in the 4th. But Al Thornton picked up the slack, with 12 points and 9 rebounds off the bench — most of that in the final period. Amundson also came up big off the bench with 8 points and 10 rebounds.

So all-in-all a feel good win against a quality team that still has a lot to play for in terms of playoff positioning. It’s just too bad they couldn’t do this more consistently throughout the season.

The Mavericks visit Oracle tonight on the heels of an ugly loss at the Lakers. Given their success against the Warriors this season, they’ll likely be looking at tonight as an opportunity to get back on track. At this stage in the season, the only thing I’m really looking for are good performances from Udoh and Curry. And if Monta wants to show he hasn’t quit on the season, and Lee wants to leave a positive final impression heading into the offseason, then more power to them.

The Warriors looked every bit like a team on the back half of a back-to-back, as they were playing well until they absolutely hit the wall a few minutes into the 3rd. From there, they were outscored by 29 points in the final 20+ minutes.

The Grizzlies ate the Warriors up inside, and didn’t even need a big rebounding advantage to do it. They scored 74 points in the paint, and only took four 3′s (the Warriors shot 21 times from behind the arc — and only made 6).

Tonight it was Curry who lost his shooting stroke, putting up a Monta-esque 2-14 from the field and a so-so 9 points and 6 turnovers — one more turnover than the entire Memphis team combined.

Thus ends the short road trip, as the Warriors get a few days off before a home date with Dallas on Saturday.

Can’t say I’m optimistic about this one — one night after the starters play big minutes in an overtime loss, they travel to Memphis to play a team that is holding on to the final playoff spot in the west. That said, the Warriors have played well in their last few games, so maybe they can surprise. They’ll need the bench to actually show up tonight, and let’s just hope that Monta and Wright bring a better shooting stroke — though tired legs aren’t exactly a recipe for success on that front…
