The renewed Warriors, quickly becoming the talk of the NBA, will honor the original high-scoring "Run TMC" teams of the early 1990s, which featured Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond and current vice president of basketball operations Chris Mullin. Those Warriors made high-octane, up-and-down basketball their trademark. And so have this year's Warriors.
HWC Mondays have grown more and more popular over the course of the season, providing a touch of nostalgia to the sporting evening. The Warriors, bolstered by the acquisition of Davis, have caught the attention of hard-core hoops junkies and casual observers alike, as the growing crowds at the Arena will attest. But it's not too late to be part of the excitement.

The 2004-05 Warriors, featuring an array of young and improving talent, know a little about scoring, too. They recently outran the Phoenix Suns 127-119 in front of more than 20,000 fans at the Arena, which pushed their winning streak to eight games. Davis won back-to-back NBA Player of the Week honors for his play during that stretch.
For the final time this season, the Warriors will don their throwback uniforms from the 1966-67 season, those classic tops featuring "The City" logo with the stylin' Cable Car design on back. These retro jerseys are a must-have for the hoops fan in your family. The Lakers will be wearing their throwback uniforms from the Minneapolis era.
Monday's game begins at 7:30 p.m., but in order to have an opportunity to land one of these coveted jerseys - valued at $250 - you'll have to get to the Arena early. The Lakers and Bryant are always a popular draw in the Bay Area andMonday will be no different. One of San Francisco's hottest bands, Pride and Joy, a HWC Mondays staple, will provide the night's musical entertainment.
Past HWC Mondays have honored Alvin Attles, Nate Thurmond, Wilt Chamberlain, Rick Barry and the 1974-75 Championship team.
