    Don't think he is with the team yet, nothing to do with playing against us

    when you get embarrassed like that it wakes you up if you're a serious team.

    I don’t know. I’m having mixed feelings about that. On one hand I enjoy watching them lose. But on the other hand at this rate they’ll get the #1 pick next year. Wouldn’t that suck?

    Ideally, I’d like to see them getting the 14th pick next year.

    cancer duo. There's always been reports of Lillard & McCollum disliking eachother, similar to the Wall & Beal situation, but they keep downplaying it the same way the Wizards org does. They'll implode & blow it up soon, maybe we can get a couple of their shiny pieces too

    This.



    I’m just glad it happened in the first quarter of the season.

    They need to trade either Lillard or McCollum. They're both redundant players - great scoring guards but neither are great play makers/assist guys. They need a real point guard or a SG that can create easy buckets for the rest of the team ala Harden.

    now we just need Clemons to earn D'Antoni's trust and we have a legit 10 man roster

    Danuel House with an A+ game tonight . Made the right cuts , rights passes , knocked down shots, and was solid on defense

    Can’t ask for anything else

    Our chemistry was great tonight . Lots of off ball movement , everyone got involved .

    It's such a strange fit, they're both ball dominant, off the dribble playmakers. Not even remotely close to what Harden - Westbrook provides dynamically

    Russ and James is just a sinister backcourt. Not fair...

    Wow, it has been a hour since the game finished and ESPN still has not a word about Westbrook's triple double. Every triple double he made as a OKC Thunder they reported promptly after the game. Now he is a Rocket, NOTHING, My condolences to Westbrook now he is a Rocket...ESPN no longer likes you.:rolleyes:

    Man, I thoughtd we would have to stagger Westbrook and Harden more than Cp/Harden. Jesus man Harden and Westbrook have such good chemistry on the floor together.

    And I’m starting to think Westbrook taking away possessions from Harden is actually a good thing. Harden is doing a lot better in 4th quarters now man this is great. With these two it’s like two forces of nature coming at you.

    AB did drive to the rim but he was more of a finesse finisher than an athletic one.

    Wait for the "Harden only took 19 shots, Russell carried him" twitter comments. The most hated
