Also, Matt Barnes is getting the starting job tonight. "he had the best practise of the season today" according to Don Nelson. Hope he does well and egts a few three pointers

Barnes starting also looks to be because Pietrus' is away from the team due to personal matters (did Pietrus even start the last game, though?).

Warriors have this one by 10+ points and Baron goes off for 30+ points. BOOK IT!
Nelson said he will start Matt Barnes at small forward in place of Mickael Pietrus, who is tending to personal matters and is not expected to be back with the team before Friday. ... Davis (knee contusion) practiced for only about five minutes, according to Nelson. If Davis can play, Nelson plans to bring Monta Ellis off the bench. ... Croshere practiced for a second straight day and could return tonight.
Damn Baron and his knee! I'm still certain he will play and drop 30
As for Pietrus, last game he appeared to have the flu, which caused him to sit out. I want Nelson to give Wright some decent playing time this game. I also wanna see Croshere out there tonight.
What lost us the game? Free throws and too many un-advised three pointers.
Not quite the game I expected it to be. A 22 point lead gone! Very dissapointing!
Well, we lost 6 games in a row last season and still managed to make the playoffs, so I'm not worried just yet.
Also, Brandan Wright looked very good out there tonight. Got involved on quite a lot of plays when he was out there for the 5-6 minutes he played. I thought he should of played a bit longer. I LOVED HIS PUTBACK DUNK ASWELL!
I thought we got rid of J-Rich in part b/c he took so many lousy threes? Christ what a bad second half. Between this start, the 9ers season, the a's season, and the Cal tank job this year hasn't been good.

We also won 31 games at home - I don't think we're going to hit that mark this year. Considering the play of this team so far, I don't anticipate an improved road mark, either.

I wish to God that Nellie would play this kid more. Use his fouls. No reason you shouldn't be using him for spot action (say end of the 2nd and start of the 4th quarters). Nellie claims to not want to play Wright in a tight game (as if it makes more sense to run your vets into the ground).
