Warriors World

The Warriors capped off a 0-3 week with a tough loss at home vs the Washington Wizards.  Having already  lost at Philadelphia and at home to San Antonio earlier in the week; the Warriors stayed in the game against the Wizards till late in the fourth quarter at which point they squandered the game away.

The team hits the road this week starting in Memphis and New Orleans the next night on the tail end of a back to back.  They finish the week at home with a showdown with Phoenix and former Warrior Jason Richardson.

Anthony Morrow and Vladimir Radmanovic both had a difficult week as neither could do what they do best, shoot the ball.  Morrow has struggled since he returned to the team after attending the funeral of a loved one.  Shots that he normally knocks down in his sleep have not been falling which frustrates no one more than Morrow himself.  Radmanovic also has struggled with his shot which has caused him to lose his starting spot to Anthony Randolph.  If Radmanovic is not hitting his shots and stretching the floor then he is a liability on the floor as he’s getting abused on the defensive end.

WarriorsWorld TV shot a new episode featuring CJ Watson which will be online later this week.  In the interview, Watson talks about playing overseas, how his journey has made him appreciate the NBA and other topics which allow us to get to know him better.
