    He's got 15 points on 2 made shots. LOL.

    It's funny, but if someone had told me that PJ Tucker had as many shot attempts as Harden and Westbrook and Harden had made only 2 shots at the half, I doubt I'd think we'd have a 16 point lead.

    The fact that all Draymond has to do is sit back and read is ultimately the result of Capela's offensive limits. He doesn't have a hook shot or set shot. If it's not a lob or a put-back then he's practically incapable of scoring. You hate to see it!

    Some people just need to tone down the expectations on Clint, the guy was never going to be a star or an all star caliber player, but it's not his fault if someone actually hoped/believed this. Just accept him for who he is, a pretty damn good role player. He has 7 boards, 2 blocks and a couple of good defensive plays so far in a difficult matchup for him, doesn't look bad to me.

    I'm not the die hard Capela fan...but there seems to be lot of bashing on him in the first half. Offensively he looked rough, but I thought he did a pretty good job defensively. The Bucks are a tough team to defend as a big, they are long, and Capela has 7 rebounds so far, and the highest +/- on the team. Again, not saying +/- doesn't have it's issues, but it's not like we just suck while he's out there.

    Chandler looks better than Capela out there.

    If Harden’s 5th foul is passing the ball right into Giannis’s face I think that’d be totally worth it.

    How far did you have to reach up your 4th point of contact to find this take?

    Damn good start. Hope they keep up the pace and intensity in the 2nd half.

    Hope Harden’s fouls don’t become an issue.

    we got 19 fastbreak points at the break boys...that’s probably last year’s season high for an entire game

    the Westbrook effect

    For my money, Old man Nene almost looked better out there than Capela last post season.

    I think something that was over looked (by some not all), is Tuckers defense on Giannis. A lot of Rockets fans, including my self, just take it for granted at times.

    Plays like that..what House just did is going to be so important for this team. Be active on defense, because we have WB who can push teh ball off steals now.
