Even with the Shaq trade, this is going to be one of the most fast-paced frentic games you can get in the NBA. It will be interesting to see how differently the handle Golden State though.

We had better pound them with Shaq and Amare and make them pay for going small.

With Beidrins back (and played pretty good tonight, especially of defense) and Brandon Wright looking like the player we traded for, I think we'll be fine if Shaq is in there (Shaq has been looking very good though)...

I predict we (GSW) lose to the Suns since we are playing a back to back and tonight we played our starters for 40 minutes. All the games we play with you guys are great and competitive but I think th Suns take this one

Geez, an opposing fan that actually has some perspective and doesn't just come in talking trash....very impressed. As far as the game, even though you guys are coming off a back to back...you could still win this. It will be a very fun game to watch, I am just not sold we have everything figured out yet. I still think we are another 5-7 games away....hope I am wrong and you are right though.

This will be a great game...I just wish it was not on TNT, for all we are going to hear is Barkely saying how terrible the Warriors are even though they are 17 games above .500.

Heck, even Kenny Smith is saying of all the West contending teams that the W's are the most likely to miss out on the playoffs. All the W's have to do is go 10-9 in the final 19 to win 50. They do have a very tough remaining schedule, but so do the rest of the contenders.

W's stil get little respect from many in the media even when they play well. (alot like the Cardinals).

Thank you....Yeah well we could, I just dont see it. Maybe Davis and Ellis keep up their hot hand from tonight and Harrington can play that defense we seen him play before. But with Nellie running these guys like this all year, I just expect tired legs and the Suns are a great team and great teams take advantage of it...

I havent seen any Suns games recently so I cant comment on your team but how are they playing with Shaq? Will the Suns run with us like they always have, even with Shaq in there? I seen highlights against the Spurs and Shaq looks like he distributed the ball well.

As long as Davis can frustrate Nash like he has the past few matchups the W's have a chance. Luckily, the W's have been on each time they have faced the Suns, but they have to be on.

W's cant have any lapses in this game if they want to win...

yea, to be honest Golden State scares the crap out of me. Baron Davis drives like a bull without cheating like Ginobli. and Ellis is a nightmare.

Yeah tonight Baron kept hitting his shots but since Ellis has emerged this year, he lets Ellis drive to the basket more. Not only can Ellis outrun alot of players, but he can finish when he is fouled. We need to sign him ASAP, we cant let him go like Arenas

Well, Shaq should be a big factor in this game again. Amare's gonna get his, I just hope Shaq would play well defensively. And grab those rebounds!

LOL I wouldnt be suprised, this the same franchise that traded Wilt Chamberlain years ago when he was in his prime lol we have a long history of idiotic moves. Hopefully Mullin makes the right decision on this one

good point, maybe davis and ellis will be hesitant to drive and we can get them to just chuck up J's all game. i keep forgetting about the shaq effect, just thinking of prior matchups where ellis and davis were running layup lines.

Yeah, and the Suns should have a mentality of "LET-THE-BODIES-HIT-THE-FLOOR"
