    4-0. Without their starting Center. Coming off their first Championship since 1975 they are showing no signs of complacency. Pounded the Grizzlies last night by 50 points! Not sure how long they can keep up this pace, but then again, I said that last year. As always, can they stay injury free? Bogut out with a concussion.

    Big game tomorrow vs. the 4-0 Clippers. Very heated rivalry with Clips. They are playing well so this should be a very good game to watch.

    I noticed that last year when I started an NBA thread. With the thousands of TW members you'd think there'd be more. And I'm not that big of a fan myself. However, I have followed the Warriors since 1979, and while I've only been to a few games, they are my local team. Success for them means revenue to the City. Plus, they are playing some pretty exciting ball. I watched damn near every game last year. Very entertaining. They are looking good this year, as well. Squeaked out a win last night vs. the hated rival Clippers. Curry states they are a better team than last year, and he might be right. With Bogut out, their back up center is getting the minutes he needs to improve his game. And it's paying off.

    Warriors are now 5-0. Way way too early to get overly optimistic, but they look good. Even though they had a poor shooting night, their defense and determination were the difference. Warriors!.

    I like college ball a lot more than the NBA but I have never been to an NBA game I may like it better seeing it in person.

    Usually the NBA doesn't get good until the playoffs, but Golden State is on a mission. No one picked them last year. Now they're out to prove that last year was no fluke. Haven't been to a game in years, but when I did it was amazing. Used to buy cheap seats, then walk down and sit in the good seats. Warriors weren't that good then so there were plenty of good seats. Can't do that any more. Ushers are like prison guards.

    Guess I'll just have a one man thread. o_O Warriors play like crap, still squeak out a win vs. the Kings. Yeah, the Kings are now 1-6, but a wins a win.

    Another tough game. Warriors shot poorly and had way too many turnovers. But, Curry and Co. pulled out another win. 9-0

    That Dallas game was crazy. The "Deandre sucks" chants in the 4th made my night.

    The guys a stud, but I can understand their frustration. It is one of several things that once turned me off to the NBA. Doesn't look like anything is going to change so I watch to see some amazing athletes.

    Warriors on back to back road games come through in Minnesota. Timberwolves are a young team, but talented. Warriors score 75 in first half. Then nearly blow the lead, but hang on for win number 10. Best start in franchise history. 10-0.

    I have no problem with the Warriors and think they're fun to watch but Iguodala can die

    Iguodala hits a three with 4 seconds left in the game, to tie a motivated Nets team. Warriors win by eight in OT, to go 11-0. Wow, everyone wants to knock off the champs. No surprise. I guess the big surprise in this game was that the 1-8 Nets played like a Top Ten team. They shot lights out in the first half. Nearly the same in the second half, and their defense nearly got them a win on the road. The Warriors struggled without Klay Thompson, and a defense that double, and triple teamed Steph Curry. I thought for sure this was going to be loss number one.

    I'm a Nuggets fan... He turned his back on his team in the series against the Warriors a few years ago

    Warriors attempt to give game to Toronto. Toronto declines the offer. Warriors prevail, go to 12-0. Next up, another tough one against the Clippers.

    All right. I feel like I have to keep this going since I got it started. Tonight the Warriors went up against their heated rivals. Now, that used to be the Lakers until they started to suck so bad. Now it's the Clippers. Warriors started off playing like crap. Lots of turnovers. Crappy shooting. Good Clipper D. Clippers played out of their heads in the first half, and at one point had a 23 point lead. The Warriors held close, down 15 most of the second and third quarters. Got it down below 10 a couple times. They played so crappy that I nearly turned the game off several times. Threw the remote once. Thankfully, it didn't break. But the Warriors stayed close enough to make a run in the 4th. Finished the game on a 22-5 run and held on to win. That's 13 straight wins. 15 straight following a Championship is the record. Warriors!

    Another night, another playoff team in the house. A nail biter at Oracle tonight, against the Bulls. Warriors prevail in the last 5 minutes after more than 14 lead changes. 14-0 to start the season.

    I'm a huge LA lakers/ Kobe Bryant fan, however I think the warriors are doing really good. Hats off to them. They're are kicking any other NBA team. They haven't been stopped.
