    Where does the DUBS nickname come from? I only casually follow basketball and casually might be a bit generous.

    I am quite pleased how the Celtics played in OKC last night. (sorry @melmelw03)

    I don't want to even talk about it. I'm still pouting. We were way too sloppy.

    Not sure how they'd be at basketball...and by the looks of things, they're not having a great football season, either. But, hello from across the pond!! :)


    Do you know what I complete misread the title, I thought it said NFL... I'm not drunk I swear XD

    Watching the GSW-LAC game right now and the Clips completely outplaying the Warriors. Down by double digits at the half. I'm a Laker fan so I can't stand the Clippers. Plus Luke played for the Lakers during the Kobe-Shaq title teams and beyond. I like Luke as a coach.

    Anyway, Warriors need to come out firing in this second half. Cutting that deficit from 23 to 14 has them at a good enough place for a strong comeback.

    DUBS staying Golden!!!!! 14 in a row now and 2 more will tie their franchise best. Also another win will tie them with best start of a season record.
    Man I have a feeling that the DUBS are going to give fans high blood pressure till the last 3 minutes of every game! But I love the DUBS!!!!!

    DUBS WIN and now share history with one of the best starts by a current NBA championship team. Win one more and they set history. They're still well off the mark with the Bulls 33 game single season consecutive wins, but you keep winning to even challenge it.
    DUBS on a roll!!!

    I think my currently sorry *kitten* Lakers organization still own that 33 game winning streak. Speaking of the Lakers, GS will probably destroy them tonight even if they rested all of their starters.

    HISTORY win and a Lakers loss!!!! DUBS now with the BEST start in NBA history!!!! And you're right, it was a whooping!!!! Sorry I'm not a SoCal fan so watching the Lakers get beat while creating history was a plus.

    @ninerbuff

    Golden State is such a great story that my local newspaper included a Washington Post article in this upcoming Sunday edition. And we don't even have a NBA team here in Pittsburgh, and pro basketball is definitely not big in the area.
    They're a likable team and the stars (with maybe the exception of Draymond) are pretty humble. In the Bay Area practically every here has something with the Warriors on billboards and advertisement.
