    Warriors struggling big time this year. Hopefully we can keep Stack Jack and Crawford in check.

    Should win this game but this is the NBA and anything can happen.

    We'll need to execute well on offense and work harder than usual to get back in transition. If we starting turning the ball over, GS will take advantage with their far superior quickness and athleticism. We need to keep their perimeter players out of the paint, force them to jack up outside shots, clean up on the defensive boards and limit second chance opportunities. We need to force this game to be played mostly at our tempo, especially when the starters are in.

    Their frontcourt is a weakness and the whole team plays crappy defense. Yao, Scola and Landry should be able to take advantage. They don't have any scoring bigs that will cause defensive mismatches like Randolph did in the last game. Our bigs just need to grab rebounds while Alston, Battier and Artest force their perimeter players to shoot from outside.

    Keys to our victory:
    1) Keep It At Our Pace
    2) Make Them Play Defense
    3) Get Back On D

    If I were Adelman, I'd have Yao still be the main focus, but if he kicks it out, we need to be hitting those 3's, if our shots aren't falling today, then we'll be in a world of hurt.

    Magette is known for his selfishness, and if you stop Crawford everything else will be easy. I think Yao will have a big game. Artest? Same old junky shooting %.

    I am worried about this game. It is gonna be tough, really tough test.

    Of course Warriors play NO defense but they are so great offensivly. If we can win this one we can do that with DEFENSE
