Your Golden State Warriors. - Some Hope for the Future!

With Rush back I think we might resemble an NBA team!

If healthy, this team gets 45.

That's a big IF though.
Would rather have gotten Hill for 2 for 8 million than Landry for the same price. Idk though, I guess Landry is pretty good.

Hill was pretty good last year, but he's got some off the court issues that may get him in trouble. Rather go with Landry, who's a pretty tough guy, and solid dude off the court.

Well, we haven't reached the point where teams are saying , "Jumping Jehoshaphat, we got to go up against the Warriors, they're going to kill us, even though we're playing at home."

Barring injury, this team will be much better in the second half of the season.

Wtf..17,000 seating capacity?

from ESPN

Warriors new arena will be smaller
The Golden State Warriors have been playing in Oracle Arena since 1971, and after the last round of renovations the arena seats 19,596 for basketball games.

If the team is successful in building a new state-of-the-art arena on San Francisco's beautiful Embarcadero by 2017, as was announced in May, Bay Area fans can expect a much smaller venue.

"It's going to be top of the line in every respect. We don't really know what the economy is going to be in five years. We don't know what the economics of the NBA will be in five years; it's even premature to talk about pricing," Warriors president Rick Welts said.

"What we do know is we want the arena to be full every night and for it to be full every night it has to be organized and priced in a way that 16,000, 17,000 are excited about coming."

This is an interesting plan that would carry with it at least some risk. One has to look no farther than Seattle. When Key Arena was renovated in 1994, the new seating capacity was only 17,072, which made it the smallest in the NBA and ended up being one of the big reasons why the Sonics were unable to turn a profit.

Thats nothing..Oracle right now has like 20,000 seats and easily sells out. Why would hey make it smaller?

I'm too lazy to Google search this but I wonder what the league average is for stadium capacity. This stadium will be built on a pier so sounds about right to reduce the seats a little. Sucks though...
