This is gonna be a great test for us as we continue the march to redemption. The Warriors are a playoff team, but I expect some slippage from them this season. Kerr is already b*tching about their turnovers. Seeing as Byron is trying to build us as a team that digs in on D, I think we can force them into some.

This is where our second unit will excel once the unit is finalized. Forcing turnovers will be the key to getting the young guys into the open court. This team reminds me already of the 07-08 team, where the second unit pushed the tempo and actually extended our leads.

I see our starters as setting the tone of the game and letting the second unit stretch it or in some cases bring us back in it.

We just had 23 turnovers and still beat the Clippers by 20. Its stupid to think that we're gonna be worse this year.

PSA:

I, Lakeshow (me), will not stand for any Lin trolls coming in my game thread talking nonsense about Lin being the second coming of Magic Johnson with his imposing physical presence and elite rebounding ability. Bring that stuff here and I will eat your eyeballs. Yes, your eyeballs.

On that note... we need another win. Preseason or not.

Just happy to see the guys get more actual game time together. This season is already less depressing than the last two

The turnover thing is just something Kerr b*tched about and the media ran with it. My take is if the Warriors are gonna be a high tempo team,then TO's come with the territory. But I think the Warriors real concern is post scoring. If Bogut goes down who scores from there ?

I read those replies in the game thread, and I started to get a little confused. Then I remembered that there is most likely a huge contingent of asian people who rep Lin on racial pride alone... that's fine. I can even respect that.

But man, they were sure getting homoerotic. "Imposing physique"? Lol
