Golden State's fun loving beer!
This was a pet project I worked on this past weekend. I had so much fun flipping the script on the St. Pauli's Beer concept. I modeled it after the Warrior Girls very own Kelsey! Inspired by frustrating Sacramento traffic and eyeing a St.Pauli Girl's billboard (as I waited for cars to…

Steinmetz: More JRich Trade Talk
Because Matt Steinmetz's article and Atma's posting of it got so much attention, I figure I'd post Steinmetz's response to some of the common reasons people cite for it being a good trade. Because Jason deserves it, more talk about the Warriors trading Richardson I received tons of feedback…

A New Era, but First Some Goodbyes
I figured before I can officially welcome the new Warriors (yes, it's a little late) and welcome back some returning Warriors, I have to say goodbye first (and yes, this has been even later). It's only right to do so, I guess. A new Warriors era is starting and the longest tenured Warrior is (well…

OPEN THREAD: Vegas Game 2 - Warriors vs Mavs
Game Time: 3pm The rookie, Anthony Randolph, showed his stuff in the game against the 76ers, scoring 30 points, pulling 8 boards along with 2 steals and 2 blocks. Quite a debut. That was Marco-esque. And as Pree noted, they didn't even run a play for him in the first half. Now, I know I'm not…

We all knew the ending was going to come, it was just a matter of when and with whom. Mickael Pietrus is no longer a Warrior, he is a Magic. I don't know why, but "he is a magic" just cracks me up. Maybe it's because I imagine my Chinese grandma saying it. But I digress. Mickael Pietrus aka MP2 aka…

Remember this? Antawn Jamison's Back to Back 51's
Antawn Jamison used to be my favorite player. I even saw him at Stoneridge mall once but didn't bother him. On the court, he's always seemed like a good guy. He's got some funky offensive moves, but he gets it done and puts up the numbers. I was taking a trip down memory lane and remembered…

Is Kelser Blaha’s best sidekick ever?
George Blaha has been doing play-by-play for Pistons games for over 30 years, so by default, I’m willing to dub him the best “best play-by-play man” the Pistons have ever had. But what about Greg Kelser? Is Special K the best color analyst the Pistons have ever had? At least one…

English-only not an option in NBA
Imagine an NBA with English-only speaking players. Imagine the Lakers without their foreign players. Vlade Divac would not have been a Laker nor would have Slava Medvedenko. Even newly-signed Lakers guard Sun Yue of China might not have been given a chance had the NBA adopted the same rules as the…

On Aug. 23, the kid isn’t a kid anymore. Kobe Bryant (wasn’t he just a high school phenom?) is turning 30. That’s 52 in basketball years. He says he feels younger than he did a few years ago, which is a weird thing to say. It would be nice to see him celebrate with a gold medal. I…
