Please excuse WRD's banner. We are in the process of accommodating Stephen Jackson's request to be moved to a blog with Al (Harrington) in New York or with one of the Texas teams. Basketball's 'Bad News Bears' will return home from the Eastern road trip, taking one out of five games. The post-trade skeleton crew fared well in back to back games against Cleveland and Boston. Team chemistry is markedly...
The Stephen Jackson train is pulling out of Oakland and is now en route to Charlotte. Now all is well in Golden State...Right? No. At this time, the Warriors are as bad as they will be all season. Monday morning, Stephen Jackson and A.C. Law were traded to the Charlotte Bobcats in exchange for Raja Bell and Vladimir Radmanovic. Does this trade make the Warriors better? Not really, but did Stephen Jackson...
Hey there. It's the weekend again. If you're bored as shit, we got so much links and video for you to fill that loneliness void. Feed your boredom, after the jump.

By Henry Abbott Don Nelson and Monta Ellis, yelling at each other in front of reporters . Did Pau Gasol get injured, or did he get Hollywood ? Swine flu is no match for Chris Douglas-Roberts, who tweets that he is back to work . Doctors told me that an advantage of swine flu -- assuming you avoid dangerous complications -- is that it tends not to linger as long as conventional flu. In a chat about...
by Tom Ziller Filed under: Warriors Angry agents ripping team execs and coaches isn't a new phenomenon, but Mark Stevens -- the rep for disgruntled Warrior Stephen Jackson -- might have painted a masterpiece in ripping Golden State coach Don Nelson in a discussion with ESPN.com's Chris Broussard. Stevens dredged up just about every demon in Nelson's basketball past, reaching back to Nellie's Bucks...
I have been fortunate enough to conduct my two dream basketball interviews-- Julius Erving will always be my favorite all-time player and after Erving retired Scottie Pippen was my favorite player as a teenager/young adult (and Pippen remains my second favorite all-time player). I enjoy speaking with players and coaches directly and learning about the game from their perspectives without the filtering...
by Brett Pollakoff Filed under: Warriors PHOENIX -- The Warriors played basketball like five individuals wearing the same uniform on Friday, instead of like an NBA team that was anywhere near capable of playing as a cohesive unit. As a result, they were run off the floor by a Suns team that shared the ball to get easy baskets, led by a 20-assist performance from Steve Nash . Besides the fact that...
by Brett Pollakoff Filed under: Suns , Warriors , NBA Live Blogging When the Suns and the Warriors get together, it's always a good time -- uptempo basketball at its finest. Both teams are coming off of close first games of the season, but with decidedly different results. Golden State blew a 10-point halftime lead at home to fall to the Rockets, while Phoenix got an " old white guy shot "...
OAKLAND – Eventually, they'll get around to playing basketball. Don Nelson will surpass Lenny Wilkens as the all-time leader in NBA coaching victories. Andris Biedrins will swallow his healthy allotment of rebounds. Stephen Jackson and Monta Ellis will entertain with spectacular plays. Last year's rookie, Anthony Randolph, will impress. This year's rookie will prove that he's more than a pretty...

It's a very good thing we don't care for the NBA (or the Warriors, really) because Golden State is becoming the Oakland Raiders of professional basketball. A timeline: -August: Stephen Jackson publicly asks to be traded. - Sept. 28 : Monta Ellis says he won't share the backcourt with first-round pick Stephen Curry. -Oct. 9: Jackson bursts out at coach Don Nelson in preseason game against the Lakers...
LOS ANGELES -- Don Nelson rarely smiles. Watch him roam the sideline during a Golden State Warriors game and his expression doesn't change. It's like the guy is watching a Stanley Kubrick movie instead of a basketball game.
We know Larry Riley and Don Nelson would be ecstatic to have Chris Bosh in a Warriors jersey this season, but would the Raptors actually trade away their cornerstone even before the 2010 free agent madness? A strange picture indeed. Jump for the details! Steve Buffery of the Toronto Sun writes: RUMOUR DE JOUR Raptors forward Chris Bosh becomes a free agent at the end of the season and for that primary...
