--The Warriors wrapped up their final Eastern trip 1-3 with Saturday's loss at Milwaukee. The trip began with a win at Minnesota but was followed by successive losses at Chicago, Detroit and Milwaukee.
--Golden State fared poorly on all three of its long (four games or more) Eastern trips this season, going 0-5, 1-4 and 1-3. The Warriors still have a four-game Western swing remaining -- a monster in which they must go up against New Orleans, San Antonio, Dallas and Denver. --The Warriors flew home with a 6-27 road record. Only Sacramento (28) finished play Saturday with more road defeats.
--The Warriors have only two games remaining against Eastern foes -- both at home. The Nets and 76ers will visit Oakland later this month.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "I think the big thing for us is to finish the season as positive as we can." -- Stephen Jackson, on the importance of winning as many of the remaining 19 games as possible.
