Did You Feel Sorry For Warriors Majority Owner Last Night?

haha i agree with you- i watched this as a clip today and it was hilarious to see other grown men try to settle down the crowd for him. suck it up- if they boo at you this time, make sure next time they cheer.

Reminds me of when Seattle retired Nate McMillain's number at half time and the crowd boo'd the fukk out of Wally Walker the Sonics GM.

He should learn you dont pause during boos, thats a way of acknowledging them, guy should have just kept with the script instead of looking like a sad puppy about to cry. Rick Barry made it worse, like he was trying to take up for the guy in middle school thats getting bullied, guy is a rich grown man, doesnt need you to stand in for him. Funny stuff.

i was there. i think our owner is a stud. i have spoken with him in person. the fact that he paused instead of trying to talk over the boos is animalistic in my opinion. i loved it. warriors fans were showing no class by booing the man that is trying to turn us around, so i don't mind mully or rick standing up for him either.

Not sure trading Monte is the way to go, I probably would have booed too.

Speedy88 · 03-20-12, 06:08 PM

How long has that guy been the owner for? And is he making the calls on the trades or is that the GM (btw, isn't jerry west the GM of the Warriors now?)

To be honest, I think it was the right move. Monta and Curry could never co-exist as a backcourt tandem. Both are way undersized. Bogut is solid as a rock at center. Him and David Lee will automatically become one of the best frontcourts in the West, if not THE BEST frontcourt in the west.

BTW, the signing of JJ Hickson is a great move too. That guy will really help out.

i swear to you on all that matters that while everyone was booing i was in the 19th row center court giving Lacob a standing clap.

i think it was the right move...warriors fans showed theyre classless and not the best fans in the nba last night. down 49-35 at halftime so they boo city. get real, if we were fkng up in just that game, they wouldn't even have booed. warriors fans proved theyre a joke. i hate it.

Why would you guys feel sorry for someone that has millions?

He is a shitty owner.

Then you get rid of the broke down Curry, not Monte, Monte's a franchise player.

YouHave2outs · 03-20-12, 07:16 PM

you'd be able to spell his name correctly 1/4th of the time if he was a franchise player bro. i've watched over 90% of the games MontA has ever played in the nba.

i'll repeat as i have, as someon who has watched SO fkng many of his games: he cannot make a shot when the other team knows he is going to shoot. he clanks jumper AFTER jumper AFTER jumper and fails miserably at getting to the rack in this situation. hopefully for bucks fans he improves in this regard. i realized after about 3 full years of ellis in the league, and after he clearly becamse our main option, that when it was an end of quarter situation we were not going to score very often. ellis running flat 1-4. clank. clank. clank. clank. clank. clank. clank. clank.

They probably hated him even more once Lin got a little buzz in N.Y., drafting Klay Thompson for what reason I dont know with the 11th pick, Id like an explanation from Mr. Lacob for that one.

wow, i cannot even have a conversation with you about the Warriors if you think Klay was a bad pick. good luck with your bets though for sure! hopefully we all win tonight.

Brain fart, but Im all too familiar with watching him also since high school, thought he was a steal, but this season is a wrap for sure, not sure if their rebuilding or what.

well our pick goes to the Jazz unless it is top 7. they are trading for an injured Bogut and praying for health, lucky in my opinion to deal Jax to Spurs for Jeff and their 1st rounder. they are sitting Curry for probably the rest of the season to get his ankle, hopefully, healthy. and they are praying for a lottery pick. def rebuildilng. I can only pray we lose every game for the rest of the season.

i have watched every Warriors game this season. i dunno what else to say. i'm definitely overly optimistic a lot of the time, but i really really really really like his game.

who would you have drafted in Klay's place?

I thought during the draft Faried lasted way too long on the board, would have taken him before Klay, saw quite a bit of Washington State and he just doesnt do it for me, he has some skills but I never really saw him dominate or anything in college, just not a lottery pick at that stage to me even in a bad draft.

fair enough. time will tell, but have you seen a few of his games this year?

Yes Ive seen him, looks like a deer in head lights, kinda expected for a few games I guess, but he just wants to shoot jumpers and he's just not aggressive.

been more aggressive the last several games, getting a lot of lay ups and a few dunks -- especially since we traded monta. although, he has honestly missed several lay up attempts after a nice move when reasonably open.
