They lost earlier, and man were they sore losers. Especially Jason Richardson, that foul on Okur was uncalled for. Stupid! He might also get suspended for game 5 "in" Utah. So much for "we believe". Don't get me wrong i like how the warriors play, they're exciting and flashy. It's like watching an And1 mixtape. The warriors are gonna be the next team to go fishing if they don't gather themselves up. But if they do exit the playoffs, here are some things to work on the offseason... 1) Humility... you guys are too confident. 2) Stop being sore losers, losing is part of the game. 3) FREETHROWS! Why'd you guys lose game 2? That could've been the turning point of the series.

That's right I'm not a Warrior fan nor any team in the NBA. I'm just a fan of basketball, plain and simple. What i'm trying to point out is that losing is part of the game and Richardson's foul was really uncalled for. Davis' foul was out of frustration but he then apologized to fisher. Richardson just made it look that he was going for the ball, but if you look really close he grabbed okur's arm and slammed him to the ground. All I'm trying to point out is sportsmanship. To be competitive is to try to win everytime, but you also have to learn to accept losing.

1) yea the humility thing is true i guess. after all, they do try some flash moves sometimes
2) sore losers? half of that is right where losing is part of the game, but still, u can't blame them for being frustrated. that's possibly a good sign since their still passionate about the game.
3) sure they should practice freethrows, but they gotta stop throwin up threes all the time. it's like wut kenny and chuck said after the game. the warriors fall in love wit the three and then they lose because they don't set up their offense. they should slash into the paint more often because most of their players can slash into the paint any time they want to.
anyways, as much as i respect the jazz for young talent and great guards, the warriors really need to fix themselves. However, I still believe so.......GO WARRIORS!!!!!!

Richardson's foul wasnt dirtly. The game was pretty much over, and Okur went for a dunk and J Rich wasnt gonna let him do that. He fouled him pretty hard, but it wasnt dirty. Baron Davis' hit on Fisher was pretty dirty, but it was just because he was so frustrated. It was a dirty hit, but i dont think he was trying to hurt Fisher.
1) Their confidence is what makes them play the way they do (beating Dallas, and making a good series with Utah)
2) They need to bounce back from this loss if they want to stay alive
3) They SUCK at free throws. They definetly need to work on that.
Im not a Warriors fan or anything. I am rooting for them in these playoffs, but its just because i like to see the underdog win, and they are definetly the underdog.

Sore losers? How about Deron complaining and whining he wasn't getting any calls from the refs??? Yeah, that's right. Point your fingers to all of them because they all whined.
and puhlleeaase, you don't like the Warriors so don't even bs about that.
I love my Warriors through thick and thin. So what if we lost this game? We had fun watching them anyway. And they're still in the playoffs.
Lala is right, we will have our good days and we will have our bad days. Nothing you can do about that.
And about Richardson's foul. Blame that to the referees. The Warriors were fouling the Jazz but they won't call it. Richardson had to do what he had to do to get a call. So f that!

unlike many people i'm not a band-waggon jumper. I been following the Warriors since Baron joined the team and they still were loosing. what they have done is historical and if no one can appreciate it so be it. To me all they have to do is hit their free throws and slow down Boozer some. They are not a dirty team though. they just play with a lot of passion and pride. the foul on rich was to proove even though they were loosing they weren't going to give up easy buckets.
Go Warriors we still got some play in us

Look here partna, they ain't sore losers. I admit i jumped on the bandwagon when the beat Dallas, but I won't give up on them, because they down 3-1, but remeber last year suns, lakers second round down 3-1. Miracles do happen my friend. Watch and see. Beside you'd be mad too if you lost at home in s crucial playoff game.

I think David Stern is cringing every second that the Warriors are in the playoffs. They don't have 1 role model on the team for young kids to look up to. They don't play defense. They play dirty and complain about every call that doesn't go their way. How many ejections have they had thus far in the post season? At least 3 that I can remember. A truely classless team. Almost forget to mention, they don't run set plays on offense all they do is dribble and try and create for themselves, and in turn jack up 3 point shots every trip down court.

They try hard. I'm sorry you aren't a warriors fan but, dont think that they're sore losers. They try to work hard every game. And they'll do that the next game in Utah. If they lose, then next year! But, they got it! Haha, go warriors. =)

golden state will never make it to the finals in the near future.
they are very sore losers. the two times the mavericks beat them jackson got thrown out and baron davis did once. don nelson coached dallas and it was fun watching dirk nash and finley hit 3's but we could never get by the bigs like san antonio and sacremento. this is what i think will happen next year when golden state faces san antonio or phx or even dallas again. baron davis can not stay healthy through the whole season and they dont have a big man. imagine what would of happened of they played houston and YAO, he would of torn them apart even more so than boozer is doing.

Yea seriously. What about that "blocking" foul called on Baron Davis? Deron barreled into him and even the TNT commentators said "you gotta get that call on your home court". Instead, it was a foul on BD. This was a crucial call because it would have put Deron in foul trouble.
The Utah Jazz are "physical" meaning they foul. Everybody knows it.

they are sore losers, throw 2 yr old fits when things do not go their way. i hope they lose round 2, they have bad sportsmanship and bad tempers, losing is part of the game but for some reason when they lose its blamed on everyone else but not the team itself. I hope there is a suspension from the nba, this team needs to calm down, they are gonna get a bad reputation and no one is to blame for that but the team.
the fans blame the refs, when they should blame the team.
