    So what does MDA do at this point?

    Option 1: forget home court advantage and go heavy with the reserves. At least they'll be more comfortable in the post season

    Option 2: Run a tighter rotation and play CP3 40 minutes a game. Wait until CP3 gets injured, then repeat until only Option 1 remains

    I wonder which he will choose...

    No it really isn’t. We have no idea what’s going on with his hamstring. You’ve gone to the extreme end of this injury and I’ve gone optimistic. Hoping for the best.

    Option 3: Take Harden to the rejuvenation chambers on Frieza’s Spaceship. Let him heal and wait for the zen ki boost. :cool:

    He needs a month off at least. The man needs a break.

    I’m optimistic he’ll be fine. Maybe miss a couple games at most. We just have to wait and see. I say the fact that he’s in good spirits carries more weight than an analysis on his limp; he could be being careful walking off, he could be exaggerating, he could actually be seriously hurt. Too many scenarios but we know he’s durable and in good spirits so I’m not worried

    We can win games without harden if we play solid team ball.

    You don't mess around with hamstring injuries. They can easily linger if you come back too soon.

    I think people are going to be surprised how well this team plays without Harden

    Actually Black saved us tonite. It was Capela getting burned all night. We made our run with Black in the game

    I wish you are right, but honestly it's going to be the Chris Paul show for a bit. I will be happy if he makes it back after the All-star break.

    I think the fact that you are trolling me is substantiated proof that you have mental problems. And seems like you are the only one enjoying this.

    Do you realize that you are the one guilty of what you are accusing me of? Talk about the pot dude.
