GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS 2007-2008 SEASON ANALYSIS
If you are searching for NBA entertainment, keep your eyes peeled whenever the Golden State Warriors storm the court! Carrying the torch of guidance for his team, Baron Davis lights up the court every game as he flashes his schoolboy-esque smile while directing the attack of his Warrior compatriots. Golden State is one of the most privileged squads in the League because their crowd is always there for them, cheering on their team raucously and devouring the opponent with a storm of “boos”. The Warriors coaches should hand out track shoes to their players; they each are demanded to fast break at every possible opportunity and are all very quick-footed. Unfortunately for Golden State, the Western Conference was over-crowded with playoff-quality teams, and the Warriors were the odd team out (even though they won 48 games). GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS -- TOP 3 PLAYERS1. Baron Davis — 21.8 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 7.6 apg, 2.3 spg, 39 mpg
Baron Davis is one BUILT and insanely RIPPED point guard (the rapper, Meech, might even go off on a limb and call him “Thicka than a Snicka”). B-dizzle is one of the game’s most fun players to watch in action due to his one-of-a-kind passionate playing style. Davis loves to display his power by running the Warrior’s offense while posting up the other point guard, and he is an extraordinarily clever passer, dribbler, penetrator, and shooter.
2. Stephen Jackson – 20.1 ppg, 4.4 rpg, 4.1 apg, 1.3 spg, 83.2% (FT%), 36.3% (3p%), 39.1 mpg
Stephen Jackson definitely has a screw loose upstairs, but he is one of the most consistently accurate 3-point shooters in the Association. “Action Jackson” is notorious for his involvement in the major fan-player brawl during his stint in Indiana (for more information on the fight http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1927833). The Warriors have accepted Jackson with open arms, and he has found a new beginning in Golden State. His career is rejuvenated, and Stephen Jackson is back to doing his thing, dropping trey-bombs on fools all night long!
3. Monta Ellis– 19.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 3.8 apg, 1.4 spg, 52.7% (FG%), 37.7 mpg
Monta Ellis may be only a second year baller after skipping college and making the leap into the NBA, but he has found his niche. In the Warriors’ offensive system in which one-on-one and isolation is the name of the game, Ellis has learned to break his defender’s ankles with a fluid juke. The rest is history from that point on; Monta is skipping his way down the lane for a drifting finger role.
