    Hilarious. Randolph always looks like he's on the verge of tears.
    Interesting article in the Chron recently suggesting that us Warrior fans' loyalty might be our Achilles' heel. That management knows they'll do fine without putting a winner out there, so why bother.
    They were awful to watch all year, and once again we've been treated to an irrelevant late-season hot streak. Exactly the kind of garbage that got us Patrick O'Bryant instead of Rudy Gay.

    Nellie should be the ass-istant coach only. He blows as a head coach plus he can drink more and not have to worry about the getting the player's respect.
    Make mine a Stephen Jackson!!!

    The gap-toothed Stephen Jackson drawing was enough, the rest just kept adding to the hilarity.

    This is hilarious. I swear that everyone I know wants to talk to Randolph just to ask him why does he look so sad.

    The Warriors core has missed 196 games due to injury this season. WTF do you expect them to do?
    Next year, if they stay helathy, look for them in the playoffs.

    What do you want Nellie to do? Their roster isn't built to win in the playoffs... they have no post players. At least he's making the team entertaining to watch.

    Fishonmyplane - That they have no post players is exactly the point. Nellie won't play a 7'2" guy who scores 8 points and grabs 12 boards a game while playing passable defense. Every time the management tries to get him one, he benches the guy. Look at DJ MBenga. When the Warriors had him last year, he never played and we all just assumed he wasn't good. And that might be true. But he put on a Lakers uniform last month and absolutely destroyed the Warriors: So if MBenga isn't good, the Warriors are absolutely awful. And if he's dramatically improved this year from last, it's because Nellie can't coach a big player, which historical evidence supports (see Chris Webber).

    True Balzer. Warriors need a big man to do things. How come they aren't using Turiaf effectively on defense.
