NEW YORK — Warriors fans who booed Mike Dunleavy when he played for their team and continued to do so each time he touched the ball last week at Oracle Arena, his first appearance there since being traded to the Pacers, are easily the NBA's most unrefined.

Evidently they hold it against Dunleavy that he failed to measure up (11 points-per game average, 43 percent shooting from the field, 4.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists) to being picked third overall in 2002 during his 4-plus seasons with Golden State.

In the minds of these geniuses that's Dunleavy's fault.
