For Warriors fans, the 1997 NBA All-Star Game was a cruel joke. Eighteen months after the first Don Nelson era had begun to implode, they were still getting dust in their eyes.

Chris Cohan. Robert Rowell. Don Nelson. Three mishaps, three egos, three stubborn characters.

NBA TV today announced the addition of two-time NBA champion and 14-year veteran Brent Barry to its announcer roster for the 2009-10 season.

All he has to do is become Tim Lincecum in short pants. On Wednesday night, the Warriors lost their opener to the visiting Rockets 108-107, but it would appear that they have found something valuable: a genuine NBA-caliber point guard.

Luis Scola scored 15 of his 21 points in the third quarter and grabbed 11 rebounds, Aaron Brooks had 18 points and 12 assists, and the Houston Rockets held off Golden State and spoiled the Warriors' season opener with a 108-107 victory Wednesday night.

THE WARRIORS open shop tonight chin deep in troubling issues and fascinating subplots, among them the saga of the crusty old coach with one eye on his legacy and the other on a hammock in Maui.

These blind taste tests seem be at the very worst interesting to a lot of GSoMers, so let's try another one to pass by some of the dullest moments of the NBA offseason.

If you've been watching any television the past two weeks, you probably have learned of the mysterious dunk by Jordan Crawford, who plays for Xavier University.

Chris Cohan tried. Not very well and not at all persuasively, but he tried to make it work as the Warriors owner for 15 strange and mostly losing seasons.

For the first time in a long time, the Warriors drafted a player whom NBA analysts believe immediately fits Don Nelson's style of basketball.

Quality Pick The Golden State Warriors needed a true shooting guard. It was pretty obvious that Monta Ellis was going to be the point guard for the Warriors so the only missing link was a shooting guard.

THE WARRIORS this week rolled out their big wheels, with general manager Larry Riley taking a seat and responding to the questions of summer while coach Don Nelson declined to sit and was baffled about having to address any questions at all.

Over at Y! Sports Blog The Dagger they're counting down "the best college basketball players who went on to have disappointing NBA careers". As one would expect there's going to be at least one Warrior on the list.
