2007–08 Fulham F.C. season

Lawrie Sanchez was in charge of the club for the first few months of the season after taking charge at the end of the previous campaign, but left the club by mutual consent in December 2007 after a string of poor results had sent Fulham sliding towards the relegation zone. He was replaced by ex-Finland national team coach Roy Hodgson, who had previously been in charge of fellow Premier League side Blackburn Rovers amongst many other clubs around Europe. Fulham managed to save themselves from relegation to the Championship with a 1–0 away win against Portsmouth at Fratton Park, their third-straight away victory, despite wins for relegation rivals Reading and Birmingham City, staying up on goal difference.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, August
Fulham almost started the season off perfectly when they went ahead against Arsenal through a David Healy goal after one minute during the first weekend of the season, but Arsenal won the game in the last ten minutes with goals from Robin van Persie and Alexander Hleb. Fulham, however, did win their first home match of the season in a midweek match against Bolton Wanderers with goals from Healy and Alexey Smertin (later confirmed as a Gerald Cid own goal), having come from behind after ex-Fulham striker Heiðar Helguson's early goal. It would be several months before Fulham would experience another league victory.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, August
In their third game of the season, Fulham again experienced a turnaround, but this time the scoreline went against them. They were 1–0 up against Middlesbrough – Brian McBride scoring before being carried off injured – but they could not hold on to their lead and lost 2–1. There was controversy about the result because, in the last minute, Healy had a clear goal not given as the referee or linesman could not see that the ball had crossed the line.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, August
The final league game of the month was against Aston Villa; for a fourth game in succession, the team scoring the first goal failed to win. Fulham scored through Healy after six minutes, but two second half goals from former Fulham defender Zat Knight and Shaun Maloney gave Villa the victory.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, September
After three agonising defeats in their first four games, Fulham felt that they deserved some luck; this came in the first game of September against Tottenham Hotspur. Younès Kaboul and Dimitar Berbatov had put Tottenham in cruise control with two first goals before Dempsey replied for Fulham just before half-time. Gareth Bale extended Tottenham's lead on 61 minutes to 3–1 but Fulham managed to snatch a draw. Alexey Smertin's 77th-minute goal (also confirmed as an own goal, this time by Ricardo Rocha) and Diomansy Kamara's bicycle kick in stoppage time gave Fulham a 3–3 draw.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, September
In the next game, away to Wigan Athletic, it was the opposition that rescued the game late on. Dempsey gave Fulham the lead but Jason Koumas scored a penalty 10 minutes from time after Bouazza's foul on Mario Melchiot to give Wigan a point. Another two draws followed in September: firstly a 3–3 draw against Manchester City, throwing away a lead twice before having to eventually come from behind (Hameur Bouazza, Simon Davies and Danny Murphy scoring for Fulham, with the City goals coming from Martin Petrov and Émile Mpenza). They followed that up by holding Chelsea to a 0–0 at Stamford Bridge.

2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, October
The final game of the month saw Fulham throw away yet another lead with a 1–1 draw against Sunderland. Simon Davies gave Fulham the lead in the first half and they held out until the 86th minute, when Kenwyne Jones was in the right place to score an equaliser for Sunderland.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, November
Fulham started November with a 3–1 home victory against Reading. Simon Davies put Fulham in front after 18 minutes. Kevin Doyle equalised ten minutes after the break, but Fulham struck back with goals from Clint Dempsey and David Healy. Elliott Omozusi was sent off in injury time, in only his second appearance, for a second yellow card. Fulham were unlucky to lose in their next game away at Liverpool as Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard both scored in the last ten minutes for a 2–0 victory. It was very harsh on Fulham, who had resisted the Liverpool pressure for the majority of the game.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, November
After the international break, Fulham drew 2–2 with Blackburn Rovers, having twice been in front through goals from Danny Murphy and Diomansy Kamara, only to be pegged back by Brett Emerton and Stephen Warnock.

2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, January
A very bad start to the new year saw Fulham defeated by close rivals Chelsea 2–1 at Craven Cottage.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, April
April started with a 3–1 defeat at home against Sunderland with second half goals from Danny Collins, Michael Chopra and Kenwyne Jones, even though Fulham had equalised through a brilliant David Healy goal from 30 yards out. Things improved the next week though as Fulham finally recorded their first away win since beating Newcastle United in September 2006, against Reading at the Madejski Stadium. Brian McBride and Erik Nevland scored the goals. It came as some relief to the long-suffering away support and put Fulham's survival bid back on track. However, Fulham then suffered a home defeat against an under-strength Liverpool side, Jermaine Pennant and Peter Crouch scoring for Liverpool. This defeat meant for most Fulham fans that relegation was looking almost certain; if results would not go their way the following week, then they could be relegated.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, April
The following week, Fulham gained a priceless three points away to Manchester City to record their second successive away victory. After falling behind 2–0 in the first half, Fulham fought back from mathematical relegation to score three goals in the last twenty minutes, culminating with a 92nd-minute goal by Diomansy Kamara, his second of the game.


2007–08 Fulham F.C. season, Season review, May

The Hoyas dominated the undersized Retrievers, shooting 51 percent from the field and holding UMBC to 32-percent shooting and completely scoreless over a seven-minute stretch in the first half, during which the Retrievers missed eight straight shots: A Chris Wright three-point jumper gave the Hoyas a 31-17 lead with three minutes left in the half before UMBC's scoring drought ended. Georgetown went on a 22-5 run late in the first half, posted a 34-22 halftime lead, and won 66-47. Roy Hibbert exhibited thorough control inside and had 13 points, Jonathan Wallace also had 13, Austin Freeman contributed 11, and Patrick Ewing, Jr., who filled in at center when Hibbert was on the bench, finished with 10 points.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
In the second round, Georgetown met the region's tenth seed, No. 23 Davidson, the winner of 23 straight games, led by junior point guard Stephen Curry, a future National Basketball Association star. Before defeating Gonzaga in the first round two days earlier, Davidson had not won an NCAA Tournament game in 39 years, but when asked about the match-up with Davidson after the win over UMBC, John Thompson III said, "Watching Davidson makes me feel worried... At this point, you just need to figure out how to get a win and move on."


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
Despite Thompson's qualms, heavily favored Georgetown seemed to have the game under control in the first half: After a 2-0 Davidson lead, the Hoyas – featuring the country's top defense entering the game, allowing opponents to shoot only 37 percent from the field and allowing an average of only 57.6 points per game – built a 38-27 lead by halftime. Shooting 71 percent from the floor early in the second half and with Curry missing 10 of his first 12 shots of the game, Georgetown extended the lead to 46-29 with 17:56 left to play.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
But then Curry came alive, and the entire character of the game changed. Led by Curry, Davidson went on a 16-2 run that cut Georgetown's lead to 50-48 with 8:47 left to play. Thanks largely to Curry, for whom the Hoyas suddenly had no answer, the Wildcats went on to take a 60-58 lead – their first lead since 2-0 – with 4:40 left, and Curry then scored a three-pointer and a two-pointer to stretch the lead to 65-60.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
Curry made six of his last nine shots from the field and five of six free throws in the final 23 seconds and scored 30 points – 25 of them in the second half – and Davidson upset Georgetown 74-70 to extend its winning streak, the longest active streak in the country at the time, to 24 games and bring Georgetown's season to a stunning end.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
The Hoyas shot 63 percent from the field as a team – Jessie Sapp scored 14 points, Jonathan Wallace had 12, and DaJuan Summers finished with 10 – but Roy Hibbert managed only six points and a single rebound and Georgetown committed 20 turnovers. The loss to Davidson was the first in what became a pattern of upsets in, and early exits from, the NCAA Tournament over the next several years.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
For the season, Roy Hibbert shot 60.9 percent from the field and finished with 13.5 points per game, while Jonathan Wallace shot 49.4 percent from the field overall and 44.7 percent from three-point range, averaging 10.7 points per game. DaJuan Summers shot 42.9 percent and averaged 11.1 points per game, and Jessie Sapp shot 43.9 percent and averaged 9.7 points per game, while Patrick Ewing. Jr., shot 52.9 percent from the field, averaging 6.1 percent from the field.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
At the end of the school year, a major turnover took place in the roster. Hibbert, Ewing, Wallace, and Tyler Crawford all graduated. The Toronto Raptors drafted Hibbert in the 2008 NBA draft and subsequently traded the rights to him to the Indiana Pacers, with whom he began his NBA career. The Sacramento Kings drafted Ewing in the same draft. Wallace went undrafted in 2008, but played in the NBA Summer League, the NBA Developmental League, Europe, and Angola from 2008 to 2016, when he returned to Georgetown as a special assistant coach under John Thompson III.


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
Sophomore center Vernon Macklin decided in late April to leave the team in search of greater playing time, announcing in May that he would transfer to Florida; he sat out the 2008-09 season, then started 71 games for Florida between 2009 and 2011 and was selected by the Detroit Pistons in the 2011 NBA draft. Sophomore guard Jeremiah Rivers also departed, transferring to Indiana, where he believed he had a better chance of showcasing his talents than he could in Georgetown's "Princeton offense."


2007–08 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap, NCAA Tournament
Georgetown finished the season with a record of 28-6, and its .824 winning percentage was its best since 1995-96. Postseason, the Hoyas were ranked No. 11 in the Associated Press Poll and No. 12 in the Coaches Poll for the year.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team
The 2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team represented the University of Georgia during the 2007–08 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The team's head coach was Dennis Felton, who was in his fifth season at UGA. They played their home games at Stegeman Coliseum and were members of the Southeastern Conference. They finished the season 17–17, 4–12 in SEC play.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
In the 2007–2008 season, Georgia's men's basketball team came into the 2008 SEC Men's Basketball Tournament with a 13–16 overall record and a 4–12 conference mark. At one point, the team sustained two five-game losing streaks during a 2-of-12 stretch in conference play. In the first round of the tournament, Georgia was slated to play Ole Miss, who had beaten the Bulldogs in the season-closer, securing the Rebels' only road SEC win of the season.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
The game went into overtime after Rebel David Huertas hit all three free throws after a three-point shooting foul, and looked to go into a second extra period after Chris Warren did the same. However, with 0.4 seconds left in overtime, Georgia senior Dave Bliss banked in the game-winner to shock the Rebels and send Georgia into a second-round matchup with Kentucky.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
On the night of March 14, 2008, tornadoes hit Atlanta, in whose Georgia Dome the SEC Tournament was housed. The Georgia-Kentucky matchup was rescheduled for the early afternoon of March 15, 2008, with the winner advancing to play the SEC West's #1 seed, Mississippi State, later that evening. The remaining games in the tournament would be played at Alexander Memorial Coliseum, the basketball complex of Georgia Tech, UGA's in-state rival.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
Again playing an overtime game in which Georgia star Sundiata Gaines fouled out, Georgia freshman Zac Swansey hit a turnaround three-point jumper with 1.4 seconds left to give the Bulldogs the team's first ever win over Kentucky in the SEC Tournament. That night, Georgia defeated Mississippi State 64–60 to become the first team since Kentucky in 1952 to win two tournament games in one day, and the first-ever #6 seed from a division to advance to the modern (post-1992) SEC tournament finals.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
In the finals, Georgia faced Arkansas, which had lost to Georgia 82–69 in the regular season. Georgia prevailed again, at one point leading the Razorbacks by nineteen points en route to winning its first tournament championship in 25 years. Sundiata Gaines and Terrance Woodbury were both named to the All-Tournament Team, with Gaines winning the tournament's MVP.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
The improbable list of achievements—winning the tournament as a 6-seed, playing two games in one day to reach the finals, playing two games (against Kentucky and Mississippi State) in which Gaines fouled out with a substantial amount of time to play, doing it on a rival's home court, and winning four consecutive elimination games following a season during which their longest winning streak stood at three—earned the 2007–2008 team the nickname of Dream Dawgs.


2007–08 Georgia Bulldogs basketball team, 2008 SEC Tournament: The Dream Dawgs
With the victory, Georgia secured itself an automatic bid in the 2008 NCAA Tournament. Georgia's appearance in the tournament was the tenth overall in team history and the first since the 2002 NCAA Basketball Tournament. After their SEC Championship run, the Bulldogs were seeded 14th in the NCAA Tournament, playing against the #3 seeded Xavier Musketeers. After developing a lead early in the 2nd half, the Bulldogs could not hold on, as Xavier went on to win 73–61.


2007–08 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets men's basketball team
The 2007–08 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets men's basketball team plays college basketball for the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The head coach was Paul Hewitt who led the team to a 15–17 record overall (7–9 in the Atlantic Coast Conference).


2007–08 Georgian Cup
The 2007–08 Georgian Cup (also known as the David Kipiani Cup) was the sixty-fourth season overall and eighteenth since independence of the Georgian annual football tournament. The competition began on 4 August 2007 and ended with the Final held on 16 May 2008. The defending champions are Ameri Tbilisi.


2007–08 Georgian Cup, Quarterfinals
The matches were played from 17 to 19 February (first legs) and on 11 and 12 March 2008 (second legs).


2007–08 Georgian Cup, Semifinals
The matches were played on 8 and 9 April (first legs) and 7 May 2008 (second legs).


2007–08 Georgian Ice Hockey League season
The 2007–08 Georgian Ice Hockey League season was the first season of the Georgian Ice Hockey League, the top level of ice hockey in Georgia. Four teams participated in the league, and the Grey Wolves Tbilisi won the championship.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season
The DEL, 2nd Bundesliga and Oberliga are the first three levels of ice hockey in Germany. All three leagues operate nationwide. While the DEL is an independently operated league, the other two are run by the German ice hockey federation, the DEB, through the ESBG. The leagues below the Oberliga are operated by the state federations (German:Landesverbände) and don't run nationwide. The 2007–08 season for the three top leagues started on 6 September 2007 with the first round in the DEL and finished on 25 April 2008 with the fifth and last game of the 2nd Bundesliga finals.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL
The DEL is the highest tier of German ice hockey. The league was played with 15 clubs in the 2007–08 season, one more than the previous season, because the 2006–07 2nd Bundesliga champion EHC Wolfsburg Grizzly Adams had joined the league. The modus however remained the same. Each club played the others four times, resulting in 56 regular season games per club. The top six clubs at the end of the regular season qualified for the first round of the play-offs. The clubs seven to ten played a preliminary round to determine the last two places for the first round. For the teams placed eleven to fifteen, the season has ended. No club was relegated from the DEL this season. The league will however expand and admit a sixteenth team for next season.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL
The league was won, for a third time in four years, by the Eisbären Berlin.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL, Final table
The final table operates under the following points system: Three points for a win, two for a win after overtime or penalties, one for a loss after overtime or penalties and no points for an outright loss.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL, Play-offs
The four rounds of the 2007–08 play-offs were played under the following system:


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL, Play-offs
Unlike the regular season, in the play-offs games will not be decided by penalty shoot-outs but in overtime (OT) sudden-death. In all play-off rounds the higher placed team from the regular season has home advantage in the uneven numbered games (Game 1, 3, 5, 7) and the other team in the even numbered games (Game 2, 4, 6).


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the DEL, Top Scorers
The five highest placed scores in the regular season and play-offs are:


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga
The 2nd Bundesliga is the second highest tier of ice hockey in Germany. The league played with 14 clubs in the 2007–08 season, the same number it had since 2001. Each club played each other four times during the regular season. The top eight teams in the league qualified for the play-offs  to determined the 2nd Bundesliga champion who also has the opportunity to gain promotion to the DEL this season. For the clubs placed nine and ten, the season has finished after the regular round. The bottom four clubs play out the two relegated teams from the 2nd Bundesliga. However, due to the later insolvency of two of the league's teams, only one club, the EV Landsberg, was relegated.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga
The league was won by the Kassel Huskies who thereby earned the right to apply for a DEL licence and return to the league they played in until 2006.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga
The Moskitos Essen and Eisbären Regensburg both declared insolvency on 15 April 2008, being unable to meet their debts. Both clubs are immediately relegated from the 2nd Bundesliga. The two relegated clubs, Lausitz and Landsberg, are the first replacement for the two. The EV Landsberg is in financial trouble themselves and will probably not take part in the next 2nd Bundesliga season, therefore the Wölfe Freiburg become the next replacement as best-placed semifinal loser from the Oberliga.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga
Should Regensburg be able to survive the insolvency, the team could enter in the Oberliga for the 2008–09 season, this is however seen as unlikely by the club. If not it will take up the place of its reserve team in the Bavarian Landesliga (Tier V). Which league the Moskitos Essen will be playing in 2008–09 is not yet clear but it will not be the 2nd Bundesliga. Like Regensburg, the team could take the place of the reserve side which won promotion to the Regionalliga (Tier IV) this season.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga
Due to the structure of the 2nd Bundesliga, where all teams playing are separate companies operated by the mother club, the insolvency of one of those does not mean the club itself becomes insolvent. Reserve teams are usually operated by the mother club and therefore unaffected by any insolvencies.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga, Regular season
The final table operates under the following points system: Three points for a win, two for a win after overtime, one for a loss after overtime and no points for an outright loss.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga, Play-offs
The three rounds of the 2007–08 play-offs were played under the following system:


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga, Play-offs
In all play-off rounds the higher placed team from the regular season has home advantage in the uneven numbered games (Game 1, 3, 5, 7) and the other team in the even numbered games (Game 2, 4, 6). Should a game be undecided after regular time, there will be one overtime (OT) in sudden death format. Should there still be no winner, the game is decided through penalties (P).


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, 2nd Bundesliga, Play-downs
The play downs consists of only one round, played in a best-of-seven format. The two loser of this round are nominally relegated to the Oberliga.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga
The Oberliga is the third tier of ice hockey in Germany and as such the lowest nationwide level; below it are currently the LEV's (Landesverbände). In the 2007–08 season the league played with 19 clubs. For the first time since 2001, the Oberliga was split into a northern and a southern group. Unlike until 2001 however, when the top teams of the two divisions only met in the finals, games between the two groups are already staged in the regular season, when teams from the same division met each other four times while teams from opposite divisions only met twice.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga
The first four clubs in each group qualified for the Oberliga play-offs to determine the two promoted clubs to the 2nd Bundesliga. An Oberliga final is not played as the two semifinal winners are both promoted. The regular season results between the two semifinal winners determined the Oberliga champion instead. The two fifth-placed teams and the sixth from the south finished their season with the end of the regular season. The bottom four clubs of each division played out one relegated team each, independently of each other. In turn, the three regional champions will gain promotion to the Oberliga with the possibility of more clubs moving up should the DEL, as planned, expand or a club in the top three divisions fold or withdraw.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga
The league was won by the Dresdner Eislöwen who are, together with the runner-up Tölzer Löwen, promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga. Due to Kassel gaining entry to the DEL, the Wölfe Freiburg were also promoted. Of the bottom two clubs, only Erfurt was relegated. Weiden withdrew from the league for financial reasons.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga, Regular season
The regular season saw the league split into two groups, the Oberliga Nord and Oberliga Süd, a separation which had existed until the 2000–01 season.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga, Play-offs
The Oberliga play-offs are operating on a best-of-seven modus. The winning teams of the semifinals are promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga. Should the DEL expand to 16 teams, the best placed club of the two semifinal losers will also gain entry to the 2nd Bundesliga.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Oberliga, Play-downs
The Oberliga play-downs are also operating on a best-of-seven modus. The two groups determine separately one relegated team each, this being the losing teams of the second round.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Leagues below the Oberliga
The levels below the Oberliga are not administrated by the DEB but rather by the local federations, the LEV's. With the ESBG's intention to increase the number of clubs in the Oberliga from 19 to 20 to balance both leagues, three promotion places will be available from the LEV's to this league in 2007–08. Should the DEL expand as well, another promotion spot would become available and it is planned to hand this one to the Regionalliga West. Only the three regional champions had the right for promotion but all clubs but the Herner EV declined:


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Leagues below the Oberliga, Regionalliga West
The Regionalliga West is actually not quite a league but rather a promotion round. It contains the best six teams of the Regionalliga Nordrhein-Westfalen, and the top two teams of the Regionalliga Hessen and the Baden-Württemberg Liga each. The winner of this league is promoted to the Oberliga but this seasons runner-up, the EHC Dortmund may gain promotion to. As such, the league covers the German states of Baden-Württemberg, Hessen, Saarland, Rheinland-Pfalz and Nordrhein-Westfalen.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Leagues below the Oberliga, Regionalliga Nordost
This league covers the north and north east of Germany. Again, it is more of a promotion round, compromising ten teams from two groups, the northern and the north eastern group. The Regionalliga Nordost covers the German states of Niedersachsen, Bremen, Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Berlin, Sachsen-Anhalt, Sachsen and Thüringen.


2007–08 German ice hockey league season, Leagues below the Oberliga, Bayernliga
The Bayernliga is the only single-state league of the three, covering just Bavaria. The reason for this is that the state holds approximately one third of all ice hockey clubs in Germany and 18 of the 48 clubs in the first three divisions are from this federation.


2007–08 Getafe CF season
During the 2007–08 Spanish football season, Getafe competed in La Liga.


2007–08 Getafe CF season, Season summary
For the second season running, Getafe were runners-up in the Copa del Rey; however, this time they failed to qualify for the UEFA Cup, as cup winners Valencia did not qualify for Europe for the league. Getafe had enjoyed a good run in the UEFA Cup, reaching the quarter-finals before knocked out on away goals by German giants Bayern Munich.


2007–08 Getafe CF season, Season summary
At the end of the season, manager Michael Laudrup tendered his resignation, having completed only one season with the team. Víctor Muñoz was appointed to replace him.

2007–08 Golden State Warriors season
The 2007–08 Golden State Warriors season was their 62nd season in the NBA and their 35th in Oakland. The Warriors had the fifth best team offensive rating in the NBA.


2007–08 Golden State Warriors season
Despite finishing the season with a 48-34 record, six more wins than the previous season, the Warriors failed to qualify for the playoffs, as all eight seed teams in the Western conference finished with a 50+ winning record. The Warriors has the second highest winning percentage (.585) of any team who failed to make the playoffs behind the 1971–72 Phoenix Suns. This had fans severely criticizing the conference system in the league as the Warriors had a better record than all eastern conference playoff teams up to the third seed. Teams such as the Atlanta Hawks had sub or .500 winning percentages but still managed to make the postseason.


2007–08 Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team
During the 2007–08 season, the Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team, from Gonzaga University in Washington state, played in the West Coast Conference and the Great Alaska Shootout. The team won 25 matches and lost 8, but lost in the first round of the 2008 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament.


2007–08 Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team, Preseason
Coach Mark Few hit the recruiting trail hard in the offseason with the Coach proclaiming it's "the best we've ever had here". Few managed to recruit sought-after forward Austin Daye, Junior College transfer Ira Brown, Robert Sacre (a 7-foot Center from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada) and Steven Gray, a prized point/shooting guard. Also returning from a suspension would be the team's leading scorer from the season before Josh Heytvelt, and Theo Davis. The team entered the season ranked 14th in the AP Poll.


2007–08 Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team, Tournament build-up
Gonzaga received a 7 seed in the Midwest Region of the NCAA Tournament, and were paired against the 10 seed Davidson College, a sleeper pick by many experts. During the season the Bulldogs played ten teams that eventually made it to the tournament, and played a total of 13 games against teams who made it into the tournament.


2007–08 Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team, Tournament build-up
The Zags won seven of those thirteen games beating a 10 seed in Saint Mary's, a 13 seed in San Diego (Gonzaga won twice against San Diego), an 11 seed in Saint Joseph's, WKU, a 12 seed, a 14th seeded Georgia team, and a 4 seed in UConn.
