It is statements like this that make you look so foolish...

WE ARE 4-1 WITH DAMP ON THE FLOOR... That is the SECOND BEST RECORD in the NBA early on... We are only behind Miami, (who has not played 5 games yet), in terms of team win/loss percentage...

Damp has had a couple of bad games and he is still borderline 10/10, (which is what it will take for you to eat crow)... You better hope he doesn't bust out with a few more Memphis games eh?
You could say that based on the plus/minus number we are a 4-1 team despite Erick Dampier. Clearly we have played better when he is on the bench. It's a small sample size, but it supports history. Historically, Golden State played about as poorly when Damp was on the court as when he was off it. And don't pat yourself on the back too hard about our 4-1 record. We haven't beat a good, or even decent team yet. Furthermore, we were blown out by the worthless Orlando Magic and were pushed to overtime by the stinking Golden State Warriors. Centers are still going off on us. Brad Miller, Stromile Swift, Dwight Howard, and Jamal Magloire have all had their best games of the season again Dampier and the Mavericks. It's a young season and I expect we'll be in the playoff hunt up until the end. But our point guard problem looks to be a real issue, as does the apparent inconsistencies and ineffectiveness of Erick Dampier.
