Yay!! - my streak of watching the Warriors lose to the Kings (or the Kings beating the Warriors, however which way you want to view it) is FINALLY over. I think it was only 5 or 6 games, spread out over maybe 6 years, and I had NEVER watched the Warriors win in Arco Arena (and during those earlier years, I was a Kings fan first, but of course, now I'm a Warriors fan first, but I still support the Kings). But all that changed on Tuesday when the Warriors destroyed the Kings, 115 - 89. It was awesome, even being in enemy territory, and there were a lot of Warriors fans too. But the win was kind of bittersweet because......
Nay
- the Warriors traded Monta Ellis & Epke Udoh (and Kwame Brown, but I could give a sh!t about him) to the Bucks for Andrew "I-broke-my-foot-in-January" Bogut and Steven "this-didn't-work-out-the-1st-time-so-let's-try-again" Jackson. They traded their best scorer and best young big for a center who probably won't play till next year and a guy who is considered to be a cancer in the locker room. I don't know what the Warriors management is thinking. I guess Bogut is cool when he's healthy, and I hope they try to flip Jackson for someone actually useful before the Thursday trade deadline. The kicker is, the Warriors play the Bucks this Friday, which I happen to be going to since it's Filipino Heritage night. Not sure if Ellis & Udoh will be playing, cause I don't know if they've passed their physicals or whatever, but if they do, it should be interesting. Who's gonna guard Ellis? Klay Thompson? Charlie Jenkins? Whoever it is, it's not gonna be pretty. It's just gonna be weird in general seeing him blow by whoever and score for the other team.
