#19: Boom-Dizzle Backcourt

In case you missed the introduction, for the month of September HMB is counting down the Top 30 Bay Area sports YouTube clips. It's pretty simple: one per day for the entire month, excluding the Oakland A's and Raiders because, well, we don't like them and from their attendance figures, it doesn't seem that many people do either.

If you're looking for the blueprint for internet sports montages, the following video of Jason "Boom" Richardson and Baron "B-Dizzle" Davis is the archetype: great clips of the highlights, excellent music, and a compelling background story. Obviously, J-Rich and Baron form one of the league's most exciting backcourts but they have little to show for their aerial displays in the win column. That and Baron's albatross of a contract are what really hold this video (and the Warrior's salary cap room) back. Until the Warriors start making playoff runs, this duo will unfortunately be remembered for its style and not substance. The clip, to our knowledge, appeared first on a great Warrior blog, Golden State of Mind. Check it out if you haven't already.
