Let’s go back to the summer of 2019, a more innocent time in our nation’s history. None of us knew what a KN95 mask was. White collar workers actually traveled for business rather than spending all day having to mute a Zoom mic anytime they had to fart. Donald Trump was a gentle, widely beloved president rather than the half-assed orchestrator of a failed revolution. And the Golden State Warriors were still really good. I was in Oakland that June, hanging around the Lake Chalet to profile...
The Golden State Warriors lost to the New Orleans Pelicans 114-109 on Friday night. It was a very tough loss considering the implications it had on the standings — with a win, the Dubs would have controlled their fate, and been in position to earn the No. 8 seed in the Play-In Tournament with a win over the Utah Jazz on Sunday. Instead, they couldn’t overcome their turnover issues — or the Pelicans’ unbelievable three-point shooting — and their fourth-quarter comeback fell just short. I don’t...
The Golden State Warriors notched a huge victory on Thursday night, beating the Portland Trail Blazers 100-92 to move into a three-way tie with the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference standings. Because of the tiebreakers, the Warriors moved past the Lakers and into the ninth seed, but still need to gain a game on Sacramento to climb into the eighth seed. The Warriors, who were playing without Draymond Green and Klay Thompson, didn’t exactly earn style points for...
PORTLAND, Ore. — Positive self-talk filled Stephen Curry’s brain while the Golden State Warriors slogged Thursday through the first three quarters against the Portland Trail Blazers in their final road game of the regular season. Twice, he changed his signature shoes — hoping to kick his shooting funk. “That’s more just fun,” he said, still in uniform after an unglamorous 100-92 victory. “Trying to experiment. But the rest of it is just, you’ve got to stay positive during your struggles because...
The Golden State Warriors defeated the Portland Trail Blazers 100-92 on Thursday night, furthering their late-season push for better seeding in the Western Conference play-in tournament. With the victory, the Warriors still control their own destiny for the nine-seed and will have a chance to secure the eighth seed as well. The Dubs opted to rest Klay Thompson and Draymond Green, who are dealing with minor knee ailments, on the first half of a back-to-back, making the bet that Steph Curry and...
Just two years removed from their last NBA championship title, the Golden State Warriors have missed the playoffs. This is now the third time in the last five years that the Warriors have not made the postseason, with the team failing to qualify after losing to the Sacramento Kings in the first round of the play-in tournament.Frankly, it wasn't even close. While the Warriors had a shot thanks to qualifying for the play-in tournament, they were routed 118-94 by the Kings. Klay Thompson failed to...
There wasn’t any seed-stealing for the Golden State Warriors in Sunday’s regular-season finale. But there was a major heist between teammates, courtesy of Klay Thompson. Thompson snatched the NBA’s free-throw title from Steph Curry on the season’s final day, thanks to a perfect 5-for-5 performance at the charity stripe. With those baskets, Thompson finished the season with a 92.7% free-throw percentage, edging ahead of Curry’s 92.3%. As one Redditor pointed out, Thompson didn’t even qualify for...
The Warriors finished the game on a 21-7 run and avoided what could’ve been a deflating loss with just three days left in the regular season.
The Henrico County Department of Public Works has announced there will be a closure on sections of Belfast Road and Edinburgh Road beginning this week.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — If only thought bubbles were above the heads of the two agonizing owners on Tuesday night at the Golden 1 Center. On the right side of the TNT desk set up at center court, where Stan Van Gundy and Brian Anderson called that sparked chaos for one team and catharsis or the other, owner Vivek Ranadivé sat in his black jogging pants and matching “Sac” jacket. Twelve chairs away, across from the bench where answers to the Kings’ suddenly stingy defense were nowhere to be...
