Wow, what an ugly game. The Warriors got blitzed from the get-go and played incredibly awful defense throughout. The 10-point margin is hardly indicative of how bad they looked — it was just a late run by the scrubs that made it close (a run that was halted by an Acie Law brick on an open 3 that would have cut the margin to 7).

The rebounding was terrible one again, as the Warriors lost the boards battle 46-24 (no Warrior had more than 4). They also got destroyed in the paint, losing that battle by 28 as Dalembert had a career high.

Bright spots? Al Thornton had a solid outing, and looked unstoppable at times on his way to 23 points and a team-high +25. Ekpe also had a decent offensive turn, getting to double-digits at 10 points (but with a typically underwhelming single rebound).

But all-in-all this was yet another indictment of Smart. Part of being coach means having your team ready to play — especially in a back-to-back against a supposedly inferior opponent — and the Warriors were at the worst at the start of each half. Definitely looking forward to playing the coaching replacement game in a few more weeks…

The Warriors go for win #31 tonight in Sacramento, in what might be their last game ever in our state capital. Thanks to last night’s big win Monta will be fairly well-rested for a back-to-back, as he was able to play less than 30 minutes against the T-wolves.

With Cousins coming on strong the Warriors bigs will need another good performance, but if they can bring similar energy to what they did last night the team should be in good shape. I think Evans is still out so that should dampen the Kings’ scoring abilities a bit, so another strong defensive performance is there for the taking.

Just like last night, this is a game against a team the Warriors should beat handily. Nothing less than a win will do — and maybe they can do it without last minute heroics for once?

Despite a somewhat shaky first half, this is the first time in a while where the Warriors won a game they’re supposed to win in the way that they’re supposed to. No last-second shot or overtime needed; the Warriors won going away and even got to enjoy being on the positive side of garbage time for the first time in a long time. They won every quarter, and held the T-Wolves to just 77 points.

The bigs deserve most of the credit in this one, as they frustrated Kevin Love and his frontline friends on the way to a +41 between Lee, Biedrins, Udoh, and Amundson. They won the rebounding battle against a team that bested them by 21 on that stat in their last meeting, and fueled the Warriors big turnover advantage by making Darko cough up the ball and generating 10 blocks (5 of those for Udoh). And, of course, ending Love’s double-double streak is a nice trophy achievement — one that should go in Lee’s case.

Another thing that stood out about this game was how ugly it was during the Warriors’ run over the 3rd and 4th quarters. It had a slow, plodding pace with a ton of whistles, but for once the Dubs were the beneficiary of ugly ball as they completely flummoxed the Timberwolves’ offense and got plenty on their own offensive end to pull away.

So, good to see a game play out the way it was supposed to, as the Warriors have been a bit lazy about playing up/down to their level of competition this year. But to win consistently you need to beat up on the teams you should, then steal a few against those above you. This was a nice step in that direction — and tonight we’ll see if they can keep it up with a road game against the Kings.

The Warriors look to avenge their recent loss in Minnesota tonight. At the very least, their challenge will be to be interesting enough to steal some attention from filling out NCAA brackets tonight. Of course, if they play anything like they did against the Magic they should succeed on that front…

Exciting win for the Warriors, overcoming a huge deficit behind lights-out 3-point shooting. While you can’t count on making 21 3-pointers every game, it sure is enjoyable when it happens.

What stands out the most to me are the assist totals — 35 assists, 12 above their season average. Curry had 12, Monta had 11, and David Lee dished out 9. That’s a mark of great ball movement, and suggests that their great shooting was more than just a lucky hot streak.

Throw in an 18-point advantage on points off turnovers, and it was enough to overcome a typically lax rebounding effort (not to mention bad 3-point defense — we very easily could have been focusing on the Magic’s hot shooting from deep).

All in all, a fun win that cleans out a bit of the bad taste from the road trip. They’ll need to string together a few more of these sorts of performances against Magic-level teams in order to change the current verdict on the season, but for now we can at least savor a good win.

Alright, just what the Warriors need: a game against one of the best post players in the league! Sarcasm aside, it will be interesting to see if Udoh can slow Howard down at all — certainly will be a hell of a test for the rookie.

In their first meeting, the Warriors played a strong first half but then got destroyed in the second. The Magic killed them from deep, and didn’t even really take advantage of their inside strength. Hopefully the road rims won’t be as kind to the Magic, because if they are able to connect from 3 this one likely won’t be close.

Still, should be a good crowd with the draw of Howardon a Friday night, so I’ll try and be optimistic and hope that the Warriors will get a positive surge from being home again after their long trip.

Story of the season: the Warriors get a gift-wrapped opportunity to steal a win that you’d expect them to normally have trouble with (second half of a back-to-back at the end of along road trip — but against a Nets team missing their best player and just back from Europe), and they throw it away with a complete inability to score when it matters most.

Last night, it was down the stretch: The Warriors offense basically shut down with 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter, and they saw a small lead bleed away against a Nets team that was almost as bad, but still was able to do enough to pick up the win.

Thus ends a brutal 2-5 road trip, one they needed to at least go 4-3 on to come home with some semblance of self-respect. Instead, we’re now left with playing out the string yet again. Sad that avoiding 50 losses remains one of the few moral victories left within reach.

The Warriors finish up the roadie in New Jersey tonight, and have two welcome pieces of news: the Nets have recently returned from a two-game stint in London so they should be as tired as the Warriors, and New Jersey will be without Deron Williams who is expected to miss the game for the birth of his kid. This is what those in the biz call an “opportunity” — the question is, will the Warriors seize it?

Nice win for the Warriors, who overcame a slow start to beat the Cavs fairly easily. Things got a little hairy in the 4th, but they kept the lead close to double digits most of the way and will leave town with a desperately needed win.

Big night from the backcourt, as Monta and Steph combined for 47 points, 14 rebounds, and 13 assists. And check out the +/- that Curry pulled down: +20 in 39 minutes. I can’t remember the last time a Warrior had a number that high.

David Lee had his now customary double-double — you can call his stats hollow, but you can’t completely discount them.

Now it’s on to New Jersey, and something of a freebie as no one will be expecting much from the Dubs on the back end of a back-to-back at the end of their season-long roadie. But this team has surprised in this situation before — in particular, the game at New Orleans — so maybe they’ll come out tomorrow and surprise.

The Warriors face their old friend Baron Davis tonight, who is now leading a Cavs team that has added a few solid wins to its resume in recent weeks. With a game against the Deron Williams-led Nets in New Jersey tomorrow night, this is the best chance the Dubs have to make it home to Oracle with at least two wins on this trip.  On top of my list of wants for tonight, I’d like to see Curry break loose: it would be great to see him make himself indispensable, lest Smart decide to bench him for another 4th quarter.
