Game Story

OAKLAND, California (Ticker) -- The Golden State Warriors 
started beating the Seattle SuperSonics at the right time.

Antawn Jamison collected 28 points and 12 rebounds and Jason
Richardson added 25 and 10 as Warriors posted a 105-99 victory
over the SuperSonics.

Golden State had lost 14 straight meetings with Seattle and 14
in a row at KeyArena before Saturday's win. The Warriors ended a
seven-game home slide in the series on Wednesday, defeating the
Sonics at the Coliseum Arena for the first time since March 19,
1999.

The wins have been crucial to the playoff hopes of Golden State,
which moved one-half game ahead of Seattle for 10th place in
the Western Conference playoff race and is 2 1/2 games behind
eighth-place Phoenix and Houston, which both lost Wednesday.

"Every win is going to be huge for us down the stretch," Golden
State guard Bobby Sura said. "We were watching the scoreboard.
We got a chance and that's all you can ask for in the last month
of the season."

"We're not looking at standings, we just wanted to come in and
compete," Seattle guard Brent Barry said. "(The Warriors) are
focused and playing some energized basketball."

The teams exchanged the lead 31 times before Rashard Lewis
buried a short jumper to give the Sonics a 92-91 lead with 5:40
remaining. But Golden State scored 10 of the next 12 points as
Seattle went nearly 5 1/2 minutes without a basket.

Richardson made a layup to give the Warriors the lead for good
at 93-92 with 5:25 left and made two free throws 21 seconds
later. He buried a jumper and Sura made layup before Adonal
Foyle capped the burst with a 15-foot jumper to give the
Warriors a 101-94 cushion with 59 seconds to go.

Golden State shot 56 percent (9-of-16) in the fourth quarter
while Seattle made just 7-of-18 shots. The Sonics made just
1-of-9 shots and committed three turnovers in the final 5 1/2
minutes.

Sura fell just short of a tripe-double with 15 points, nine
assists and eight rebounds for Golden State, which won for just
the third time in eight games.

"I just wanted to come out, be strong and make a contribution,"
Sura said. "I was feeling pretty confident about my game. A
complete game for me is a lot of assists, a lot of rebounds and
just trying to make the team better."

The Warriors prevailed despite playing without leading rebounder
Troy Murphy, who is sidelined with a bruised right knee.

"I thought it was one of our best wins of the year," Warriors
coach Eric Musselman said. "When you have a limited number of
players and you're playing on back-to-back nights, I really give
our guys a ton of credit. We gutted it out. We really needed to
win this game."

Erick Dampier and Gilbert Arenas scored 11 points apiece as the
Warriors scored 56 points in the paint and shot 51 percent
(43-of-84) from the floor.

"They were aggressive penetrating and had different guys
attacking the paint," Seattle coach Nate McMillan said. "Our
bigs were not there and out guards did not control the ball."

Barry had 23 points and nine rebounds and Ray Allen added 23 and
seven assists for the Sonics, who have lost five of eight.

Lewis collected 18 points and seven rebounds before fouling out
with 19.7 seconds remaining.

Barry and Lewis each scored seven points as Seattle led the
entire the first quarter. The Sonics had their largest advantage
at 25-16 with 81 seconds left, but the Warriors responded with
a 12-3 run to forge a 28-28 tie on Richardson's 3-pointer 1:40
into the second quarter.

The teams were tied three times and traded the lead 15 times in
the final 10:20 before Golden State took a 53-52 lead into
halftime. Neither team led by more than four points thereafter
until the Warriors decisive run in the final minutes.
