    Refs targeting Harden. These offensive foul calls are a joke. Giannis getting none of them. Embarrassing.

    I am really liking what I'm seeing, for the most part defensively, and on offense. Rebounding isn't bad at all, TChandler has a great aggressive role off the bench, and WB's energy gets us into early shots that keeps the defense on their toes. Sucks about Harden's fouls, but oh well.

    My only real frustration is Capela..... he plants himself too far under the rim, and is going up really tentatively. This always happens at the beginning, and then in 10-20 games he starts laying it down, but at the moment he's disappointing during to court placement and aggressiveness. House and McLemore, not too bad at all. Tucker is playing well, Gordon driving and treying, and I hope Sefolosha can find some more chemistry but he will get there.

    Here's to a strong 2nd half!!! Hush the doubters.

    shoutout to House, McLemore, Chandler, PJ, and Russ...really liked what I saw

    Harden is getting others involved and pushing the pace...the refs are garbage

    Capela...it’s the 1st game so I’m gonna keep it nice...you’re being real soft around the rim, I’ll just keep it at that...

    Watching Westbrook push the ball and getting a wide open 3 with only four seconds off the shot clock makes me want to cry tears of joy.

    funny how nobody else has really acknowledged the rotation went 10 deep. gotta give credit to mda for that for sticking to what he said

    3 of Harden’s 4 fouls are total BS.

    Maybe I haven't watched enough of his games against other bigs in the playoffs, but he consistently bends Clint over. Half the time it looks like Clint can't even catch the damn ball lol. So one dimensional but at this point in his career, he is what he is. Hopefully, Chandler can show him some tricks or something.

    101% this.

    Really kinda sucks he doesn't get this, or he refuse to buy into this, cause those forced shots are literally the only thing that prevent him to be better than he already is.

    I'm waiting for Kenny to jump off the bandwagon a month into the season.

    Can't have these TNT flip-floppers jinx our championship chances.

    I haven't seen him consistently punk another max (or near max) big men like he does Clint but it is what it is. Clint is unfortunately limited and Draymond feasts on one-dimensional players like that.

    Well, you're already better than about 50 percent of the posters who refuse to admit they are wrong about anything. Some people just want to literally die on a hill no matter how wrong they actually are and I don't understand it...you can't be right about everything. I'm not saying everything you said in that is wrong, as there's a full season to be played and it could all actually be true, but it's refreshing to see from a poster.

    Heck, I thought Parsons was going to be great for us for years. That backfired in a hurry.

    Yea its bad match up for Capela it really is, I get you. But Capela has shown that he cant compete with literally every other NBA team. And I alot of Draymond shutting him down had do with him reading Harden's pick and roll really well.

    *** these refs man. Harden will foul out before the end of the 3rd quarter if they keep on calling these b.s. fouls.
