Baron Davis nets game-winner against Celtics

The heroics of Baron Davis continue as the Golden State Warriors find a way to close out another nail-biter in the final seconds. Without injured guard Stephen Jackson on the court somebody had to rise to the challenge. Everyone in the stadium knew who was going to get the ball in the final possession. Davis drilled a tough 20-footer fading away to give a dramatic 119-117 victory. This was a great game! It's too bad I didn't get to watch it. The prime time veteran performer paved the way for the Warriors with 29 points, 6 assists, and 6 rebounds. Baron Davis certainly has become Mr. Clutch.

Constant lead changes in the game made the ending even more thrilling than usual. The Celtics brought the firepower on offense as well with Ray Allen sinking 11-of-17 shots for 32 points. With Boston started a run in the 4th quarter Golden State countered with a run of their own. Warriors guard Monta Ellis capped off a complimentary scoring effort next to his teammate's finishing the game with 26 points. As an added bonus which put the Warriors over the top was that 4 players combined for 98 points. That is hard for any opponent to overcome.

It's incredible how poised the Warriors are in the West, now owning a 33-21 record. In a tight race with so many good teams in the conference they're going need big wins like last night to capture a playoff spot and I believe with BD at the helm it's going to happen. Facing their greatest competition will be against the Spurs, Suns, Lakers, and Hornets. This gutsy, full-throttle Golden State team is on a mission and won't be denied. Their upcoming schedule looks good as they play Atlanta, Seattle, and Philadelphia. Can't wait to Baron explode one night and drop 50 points! Go Warriors!
