Game 11





Good effort

On what is probably the toughest back to back of the season and with 7 healthy players
they rolled up there sleeves and went to work in Boston..Maggs continued his hot shooting and carried us through the first quarter..while kendric perkins was the beneficiary of some great passes from KG and rondo and was off and rolling..In a surprise appearance Raja Bell entered the game and immediately brought it..hitting a couple patent corner threes and was his scrappy self despite the wrist injury..Watching the game live I was thinking..wow Rondo is giving Monta trouble..but after going back through the game I realized That he had little to do with it.. as monta consistently blew by him only to find two 7 footers in the paint at all times..To Monta's credit he kept going to the hoop.. but never found a rhythm..The warriors hung in there in the first half mostly with Maggs scoring and pretty good team defense..The third quarter was a disaster.. maybe it was the old one lose rim one tight rim trick they use to pull at the garden.. whatever reason it was they couldn't buy a bucket..Boston wasn't playing very well either.. but in the final 5 minutes of the quarter they got going from behind the arc and gave them self a comfortable cushion..also of note after a good first half Curry didn't play but a few minute of the third and it hurt the offense..In the Fourth Boston kept us at arms length the rest of the way almost just going through the motions..AR had another solid performance rebounding well and continuing to show improved touch in his face up game..I only hope that once we get our other bigs back..Anthony is not stuck back on the bench.. the kid need to play.
