Warriors... Best Playoff Performance Ever?

I don't think anything could be sweeter for Warriors fans after the big win Sunday night than watching Charles Barkley sitting there wearing a Dirk "Luftball" Nowitzki jersey looking like he needs an extended Vegas weekend where he drops another $5 million dollars at the MGM Grand blackjack tables. I think TNT should make Charles wear that Nowitzki jersey for all of next year if he wants to keep his job after his horrible analysis during this series... And what is it with this anger directed towards the Bay Area? What is there to dislike? The open-minded, generally friendly populous, the beautiful scenery, excellent restaurants (and you know Barkley likes to eat...), or the thriving nightlife??? It just defies explanation...

As for the game, can you remember anyone throwing up more airballs and bricks in a single game than Nowitzki did on Sunday night? That's our league MVP??? If anything I think the NBA needs to delay the voting on that award until after the Finals. Everyone knows the NBA is all about what happens in the Playoffs so why vote on the MVP before the season's over? If this performance doesn't change that, assuming "Luftball" wins the award, I don't know what it would take... maybe giving the award to Kobe right before he takes a post-season trip to a resort spa in Colorado...

We also have to thank the Mavs fan who called us "the most ignorant basketball fan[s] in the history of the game" in response to our pre-Game 1 prediction that the Warriors would win this series. I think the series has spoken for itself on that end... sometimes I read that post when I'm feeling a little down... I thank you "anonymous"!

Also, as many of the Mavs fans so kindly pointed out before the series, how could we expect the Warriors to beat a team that won 67 games in the regular season and was supposedly one of the best teams in NBA history? So where does that leave the Warriors at this point? If you were making that argument before this series would that not mean that the Warriors are playing some of the best basketball ever? There was nothing to suggest that the Mavs were anything but the Real Deal during the regular season and now they are just facing a better team... hands down. You have to consider where this Warriors performance ranks against some of the great playoff series performances of all time...

I have been watching NBA basketball all my life and I don't think I have ever seen a crowd as good as the Warrior's crowd the past two nights. The energy is simply amazing. I know I am starting to sound like Walton, but I was that impressed. I find myself rooting for the Warriors simply so that I can watch some more games played in Oakland.

Charles has a history of being wrong.. remember when he made that statement about yao and kissing Kenny's ass? Charles also has a history of being fat. Fact: fat people can't play basketball. maybe all the extra fat is getting to his brain... by the way, I like the Suns much better without Barkley's ninja turtle looking ass on the team.

This has been an incredibly fun series. Although I like watching the Mavs, I can't help but cheer for the Warriors. Their style of play and great crowd have won me over.

Having said all that, Barkley's comments were not about the Bay Area. They were about Oakland. His point is valid - whenever people talk about the virtues of the Bay Area, they're talking about San Francisco: the restaraunts, the wharf, Alcatraz, the trolley, etc. Nobody vacations in Oakland.

Of course that's beside the point. Barkley's basketball analysis of this series is clearly way off. Go Warriors.

Actually, Barkley was hating on the entire Bay Area, making it a point to mention that he thinks "SF sucks too".

Baron is king.

Yeah... Barkley was a real piece of shit on the basketball court.... just a HOFer and one of the best forwards of all time... yeah, what a big piece of shit.

Ehh...don't mind Sir Charles. He's always been upfront. If y'all win, he'll give ya serious props. He enjoys playing the villain on the show.....and it makes for great entertainment. This might be one of those destiny years. As a Laker fan who has lived in the Bay Area and has all the respect in the world for long-suffering GSW fans, good luck to you guys!

I don't think anyone is denying Barkley's talents on the basketball court (at least 10 years and 100 pounds ago) or as an entertaining commentator. Although, with the way he talks and everyone listens, you would have thought he won 6 Championships... instead of none.

Also, I like how nobody in the Bay Area ever steps up for Oakland except for people from Oakland. I agree that Barkley was making a blanket statement on the Bay Area, but even if he was just talking about Oakland, I don't think a lack of tourists, trolley car, or the wharf makes it a bad city. Actually, those are some of the things that always bugged me about living in SF and I enjoy about Oakland. Granted, Oakland has problems like any other city (been through the Tenderloin after dark lately?), but Oakland definitely has a flavor of its own and I think is one of the underappreciated cities in the country...

Barkley hates on so many good teams. Suns' coach D'Antoni insisted a framed photo of Barkley in Suns garb be replaced by a Nash & Co. team photo in the hallways of U.S. Airways upper offices because he's such a hater. I'd love to see the Suns vs. Warriors in the West finals!

There's a lot of great areas to live and visit in Oakland. Rockridge/College Ave., obviously. Then there's Montclair and up along the ridge. Grand Ave. is cool, and Chinatown has great eats. Downtown you've got the Paramount and places like that. Temescal is coming along. Then Jack London Square, of course. You can get to downtown SF to work in under half an hour by bus at a lot of Oakland spots. And I've probably been to the Oakland Coliseum complex more than any other Bay Area entertainment facility over the years.

Ripping on Oakland is just ignorant.

The Tenderloin isn't in Oakland. It's in SF. But besides that I agree with everyone here pretty much. The bay rocks, Barkley sucks, The Warriors are going all the way to the western conference finals.

JB said...

I am in agreement, but we all know Barkley is only on there to make noise. Atleast he doesn't get arrested for drug possession, he just gambles more money away in a weekend than I will ever earn in my life.
