Brilliant.

Sheer genius.

If I thought you'd understand that I was mocking you, I'd use that as my signature line.

Good one NorCal...seriously, are you this dense or do you just think its charming to spout off nonsense like this? Play defense when they want to...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha.
Geez you guys are stupid. My response about them being able to play defense when they want was spurred by this gem from Funk:
"It isn't fundamentally sound because they have no clue how to play defense. They have no ability to play help defense. They have no ability to guard period."

The POINT being...for you mentally challenged...they DO know HOW to play help defense, the DO have the ability, but they just don't do it. There is a difference, jackasses. Defense is about effort, and being mentally engaged. The fact that they more often than not neglect the defensive aspect of the game for offense, is just the way they play.

Apparently when every other team plays the W's, they all have no clue how to play defense either.

Call me mentally challenged, but it seems to me that you pretty much just conceded the argument.

Given that we are all idiots, btw, I encourage you to take your brand of enlightement to a board that can apprecaite you.

Clockwork.
And it took a BS call to do it this time. Fisher tackles Monta Ellis on the out of bounds play, and the ref calls Ellis for the foul.

That's the second time you explained it and I still agree with Creekster. So the team doesn't play defense because they lack the effort and mentality to do so?

And since they are dead last in the NBA in points allowed, it allows the other team to score a lot, as well.....so if that is exciting to you, then no wonder the Warriors are your team.
ALWAYS throwing up quick shots eh? Shoot a ton of 3s, pull up for quick 20 foot shots. And yet they lead the league in points in the paint. LOL

New retro uniform every few games? LMAO. They wear the same one all season.

No thanks. I like it just fine right here. Besides...I still have over 30,000 days on my CB suspension.
