For those of you who like the NBA, try to tune into a Warriors game this year.

You will not be disappointed. The players on the Warriors roster this year are quickly jelling into a cohesive unit of multifacted players who can and do run all game long, shoot from all over the court [last night they won 120-90 and shot 15-22 from three point land with 8 players making 3 point shots] and surprisingly clamp down on defense when they choose to do so.

Chris Mullen has acquired some great talent via the draft and trades. Don Nelson is one heck of a coach who is getting the absolute best out of the players on the team. After a 0-6 start, the Warriors have a 10-2 record. They won 12 road games last year and this year they have already won 6 road games. Their 0-6 start was due, in part to the 7 game suspension of Steven Jackson by the league.

I watched them play the Suns a few days ago and the Warriors smoked the Suns 129-114. They scored 45 points in the first quarter and ran the Suns out of the arena.

For those who love an up tempo, fast break, style of basketball played by a team with 5 players on the floor [regardless of which of the players on the roster are on the floor at the time] who can play any position and who can play from any place on the floor [the big men can run, dribble and shoot from the perimeter in addition to their insude game; and the guards can play inside, post up and dunk in addition to their outside game].
