    Yeah but narratives are sexier than common sense.

    Teams are great 1 year and worse the next.

    What an interesting concept.

    Just like the 2011 Mavs.

    Rachel isn't there for substance .... she's just there to look pretty.

    Perk has personal experience on the topic of how negative having a big unskilled stiff on the court can be.

    lol i disagree. first of all she isnt all that pretty shes just ok. she obviously does follow the game pretty close and knows a lot. you might not agree with her takes all the time but its not like she's one of these analysts from another sport trying to chime in on the NBA when they clearly don't know a lot about the game. she has been covering the NBA for over a decade i'm sure. they would not give her her own NBA show otherwise.

    she isn't a rocket hater either. i think she was definitely rooting for us vs against GS no matter if she didnt think we could beat them.

    WTF, I like Kendrick Perkins now? Thought if no KP, Rox don't get Harden, so should always be grateful.

    Rachel Nicols is a solid analyst... full stop... quit hating.

    Interesting how views change when someone actually attends and watch the whole games instead of blindly cave into TV narratives. He is pro Russ and living in HOU, maybe he'll be come a fan

    Our boy? Just because this numbnuts is on our side, doesn’t mean he’s this great intellectual all of a sudden. He was a dumb player who’s showing more cojones to speak his mind, that’s all.

    Here's my take: So he's looking for a bathroom then they cut away. They cut back to him and suddenly he's just letting it go, his face full of disappointment in himself, he knows he should've worn Depends, and then he makes the decision that it's time to make that move... he trades Cap for Ninja Hands Covington and is still disappointed in himself for trading away a 1st to save money.

    If the Rockets make a brilliant run thru the playoffs and win a Championship and spank the Bucks 4-1 Nichols the next day being saying it don't matter because GS wasn't in the picture.

    Did the guy in the middle just compare CP3 (future HOF) to Igoundala as an equal missing piece when Rockets lost? Oh lord.

    ...together again with Sefolosha...and Jeff Green...I'm surprised Morey hasn't tried to orchestrate an Ibaka deal, just to get the whole '10 Thunder band back together again, sans Durant.

    I gotta give her credit. She recognized the power of the "narrative" and used it to shoot her career way up. She literally has no idea that there are 28 other basketball teams outside of Los Angeles, but I cannot deny that she knows how to bring in the ratings.

    "One hamstring away"

    cue the expected douchebag response from the typical douchebag "But what about Iguodala???"

    Do people like that fat sack of fetid hog crap in the video really believe that the whole "they didn't have Iguodala" is a legit argument? They did have FOUR All-Stars in their prime besides that guy.
