Well, that was ugly! But a win is a win is a win, and with a date in Miami tomorrow night against the Heat you can be sure that the Warriors will take it.

The defensive rebounding in the 4th quarter was just atrocious; hard to say you deserve to win when you give up 3 defensive rebounds off free throws in the final 12 minutes.

Have to give credit to the backcourt in this one — Curry’s four made 3′s were all big, and Monta got his scoring touch back despite a less-than-efficient 11-23 from the field. David Lee had a quiet line with 8 and 8, but came up with a lot of big rebounds in the closing minutes.

I usually don’t like to blame officiating, but some of the calls in this game were just atrocious. Amundson got destroyed on a layup with no call, that Monta offensive foul after he was clearly held was brutal, and that Diaw pass-to-himself that wasn’t called was insane — though thankfully someone on the crew noticed and gave the Warriors a makeup call on the out of bounds.

And as for my Stephen Jackson key to the game in the preview? My dream came true — with that ugly shot at the end, he arguably lost the game for the Bobcats. Happy New Year!
