IMO the Warriors will lose this game if they try to start going small again...

And of course you KNOW Nelson is stubborn as hell. And after giving layup after layup against Denver @ Denver with Harrington in the middle...he is very likely to start the same small ball crap again.

And that would mean....KMart has dunks and layups to get his game going....Mello lives on back door lobs....and Nerajah get's rebound after offensive rebound....

Warriors....one and one...Denver...crashing the boards and demolishing us on the the glass....

With a small lineup Denver doesn't have to shoot well cause they'll just get the rebound back....

I sssssssssssssooooooo hope Nelson starts with

Baron
Monta
Jackson
Harrington
AB

with a strong does of Austin, Brandon off the bench BEFORE Pietrus.....

Just a thought....I wonder if Nelson would ever go BIG.....

Baron
Jackson
Harrington
BRandon (or Austin)
AB.....

I think this is a nice defensive lineup with size and still offensive fire power....

Monta comes off the bench....

I've been clamoring for a starting lineup like that, except I could never justify benching Monta the way he's playing (defense notwithstanding). But the way Al and Jax have been playing lately, I don't think it is out of the question to bring either one of them off the bench until they get back in the swing of things.

Baron
Ellis
Pietrus
Wright
Biedrins

6. Jackson
7. Harrington
8. Azubuike
9. Belinelli
10. Croshere

Thats a killer lineup.

Brandan Spelled Wright has a groin injury.

The rotation was going to kill us with or without *6 Minute BW*....You cant seriously play 1st Ballot and CJ D leaguer big minutes and expect to beat a good team..Or even Denver.

brandan has a groin injury, what when how where who?

Man I think the lineup can hold their own against the bigger West teams. I'm not saying he should start that lineup cause there is no way you can justify having Tay coming off the bench, but why can't we play that lineup a few times during the game especially when we are getting are butts kicked on the glass.

BD/Tay, SJax, Al, BWright, AB.

I think that lineup is pretty good AI but I'd prefer the following matchups

Monta/Baron - AI/AC
Jack/Pete - Carmelo/Smith
Al/Wright (if healthy) - Najera/Kleiza
AB/Croshere - Camby/Nene

I'd rather have Al playing Najera and I think Jack against Carmelo and Pietrus against JR Smith. Croshere should match up well against Nene.

Darn, Brandan is injured? Biedrins better play plenty of minutes.

Makes some sense....won't happen.

I'd like to see some Wright early...with Biedrins. I'm good with Pietrus early as well,he's been playing a lot " bigger" than Jax. I'd even unleash POB for some 1st half duty. He's actually PLAYED recently and while the memories are fresh could give a boost while Andy gets a little break.
The Nugs are HOPEFUL we go all Mini. They can run,while still having a decisive edge inside.

Don't forget the altitude factor. In Denver...teams that fail to use the bench run out of wind.

Well the game's at sea level so that shouldn't be a problem...
