Bhsiao, Maybe you can LISTEN to ‘shameless bump’ on Nelson but you sure can’t read much of it on blogs which are dominated by negativity, dominated by posters who just don’t seem to be able to analyze, but attack contrary opinions. I don’t care if Feltbot is wrong (I think he is right) his gist is an almost unique angle on Nelson, and as such is welcome.

bhsiao, I believe I mentioned that this was a meaningless game, and the small-ball comment was a joke. We played without Jackson and Turiaf the entire game, and no Randolph in the 4th quarter. The rest of the starters played limited minutes. And it was the same for Phoenix.

The outcome was meaningless, but the progress of our youngsters wasn’t. That’s what this post was about.

I like your blog and agree with your analysis of Curry. Young guy has great passing instincts, something the W’s sorely need. Bobby Knight said last season Curry was the best passer in college and now I see why

Felbot, why did you leave out the first three qtrs where their starters out played us?
How GrantHill tore through out D and moved without the ball for easy transition points?
How Suns outrun and outscored us in the first qtr while playing the best running small balls against smallball Genius Nellie’s warriors?
How G.Hill & Frye looked like an allStar against us?

A fine blogger writes not only the good but also critizes the bad. And Adam and G. Lepper are great writers.

Your blog is so far all shameless bump on all Nellie schemes and warriors. If people want to read those all day, they could tune in listening to Warriors PR stoogies on TV.

It will eventually get old. In fact, it already does on me.

You’ve become the first Warriors blog I read for astute analysis. Good stuff.

You know, m. you might be on to something… And I have gone head to head with Phil on many occasions in the past.

you’re fun to read, and remind me of phil helmuth in talking so much and so confidently.
i can see you love for nelson being at some degree inspired by mutual love for poker. it’s normal that both of you like taking calculated risks so to say.
if i had to defend nelson i could not do it better, mainly because the only thing in poker i find fun to do is to piss off serious chaps and consequently strip them down. ‘course with tons of luck and jordanesque ‘it’s all about the mind’.

Adam frequently writes that he doesn’t feel this roster can reach its potential under Nelson, and that he fears the young players are learning bad habits under Nelson. He also frequently writes that he wishes the Warriors had a coach that stressed defense. Surely you can read between those lines?

And “hate” is a figure of speech here. I think you may be taking my meaning a little too literally.

I do read Adam Lauridsen and I don’t see where he has said that Nelson should be fired. He has very clearly (but not abrasively) expressed his disagreement with some of Nelson’s strategies, player rotations, Nellie’s toleration (up until now!) of Jackson’s horrible attitude, etc.
Divergent opinion does not equal “hate”.
