Live Blogging the Golden State Warriors vs. the Utah Jazz

• The Warriors play like a team out of NBA Live; at least that's how I play when I play NBA Live––I look for open shooters, and prefer taking three-point shots. When these go in, you can really blow your opponents out; when they don't, you better play great defense or YOU'RE going to be blown out. Good thing the Warriors play a crazy, frenetic defense.
• Golden States' fans are crazy. And loud. They DO believe, and consequently, the Warriors believe in themselves, hence the many threes––they believe they're going to make all of them.
• Utah's Carlos Boozer is a monster. He's rebounding like crazy, playing great D, and keeping the game close by making those point-blank shots. He has a good post game, with a jump hook and up-an-under moves that make for high-percentage shots. He leads the game in points, and probably leads the game in field goal percentage.
• Baron Davis ends the third quarter with a three, and Monta Ellis steals the Jazz inbound after; the crowd goes wild.
• I have a feeling Derek Fisher is going to make some clutch shots in this series, just as he did with the Lakers. He is just so cool. 126 playoff games and three championship rings will do that to you.
• I know the Warriors have the green light to shoot threes, but Al Harrington is just taking too many threes! He's cold, and should just pass the ball to someone with the hot hand. Or maybe take it to the hole, for a change.
• Digression: Those new San Miguel Pale Pilsen ads, which features close-ups of cold bottles of SMB? They confidently state (in Filipino) that after watching the ad you're going to want a nice, cold bottle of SMB. They work.
• Okur hits a three. It was just a matter of time.
• What did I just say? Fisher hits a long two!
• And he hits another one! CLUTCH.
• Kirilenko to Boozer alley-oop! AK47 knows how to pass, man.
  
• The Golden State fans are great. Their team is down by ten with a minute and a half to go and they are not leaving. I'd play my heart out for those people, too.
• This game is done. Utah's up by nine with a minute to go, and Reggie Miller is not playing for the Warriors.
• Okur fouled hard while going for a dunk. He he. When you're up by that much (eleven with 36 seconds to go), just dribble the ball, man. This ain't NBA Live.
• 115-101. Game. Set. Match.
