I had my first 0-2 night on Thursday night. I hope I can bounce back with a couple of wins today. I didnt get to post last night. I went to a high school basketball game. Hope everybody did good last night.

Rec YTD 23-11

Atlanta -4
Golden St -5.5

I just think Atlanta needs this win against the lowly Bulls and should get it with the 2 studs Abdul and Jason. Too much talent for the Bulls here tonight. Hawks by 7-9 pts.

I watched Golden St the other night and they have a lot of talented players on that team. They are a team to watch over the next few years for sure. I just think they win by double digits tonight against the grizzlies.

Coach, Cowans has been fired at GS. The announcement will be made 1 hour before the game. Don't believe it will hurt but might wait a couple of games to find out. Brian Winters will be the new coach and I'm not sure what his style will be. Good luck

I would take Jamison and Fortson on my team anyday. GS took a step in the right direction by finally firing Cowens but you're right gsp, i would wait a few games to see how the players react and how Winters handles things.

Jamison, the guy who cant guard anyone and went 0-20 during a 3 game stretch this year...hes the ultimate guy you could never count on, and fortson is worthless other than rebounding, he gets abused by bigger and quicker power fowards, he has no jumper and has no low post moves besides bulling guys over to score. Firing cowens is a good start because that guy has no idea what he was doing, and neither did hes players, but it wont make a difference this team played the easiest start to a schedule ive seen in years and thats why they have the wins they do, there the same sorry outfit that lost 33 of 35 after the all star break last year.

I'm not sayin those guys are superstars but they are definately young talented players. Jamison has proven he can score the ball...Jacque Vaughn went 0-22 or whatever it was to start the season and is shooting 70% since then. You cant judge a guy by a three game stretch. And say what you want about Fortson but i'll still take a guy who averages a double-double anyday. No question this GS team has no chemistry and very little experience, but change a player or two and give them a couple years and they could be a very good team.

I just think that GS does have some players that have talent and will show it someday. Now that Cowens is gone, maybe they can find a coach that get this talent together. I still like them as a play tonight because Memphis sucks!! The players might play hard tonight to show that they are glad that Cowens is gone, you never know how a team will react to a coach's firing. I think GS will respond the right way tonight. Still looking for a double digit win. I trully like the responds to my post. At least I know that someone is watching them. Thanks guys.

Well that coach not being there, players wanting to prove it thing kept me off memphis in the denver game, which cost me money so im on memphis tonight. Golden state has the worst collection of talent oustide of the bulls in the league imo, as far as fortson trust me ive watched hes act in denver and in golden state, he rebounds this is true, but part of the reason he rebounds so much is because he doesnt block out he goes after every ball and gives up easy tips ins because of it all the time. And i mean that bench of gs is brutal....will see how danny does vs pau, a rookie, will see how he does vs him and swift. Coach, you seem to really be right on a lot of times i hope you didnt take anything i said the wrong way but the only team in the nba i think less of than gs is chicago and its REAL close.
