    Westbrook would have had a double double except Harden missed 9 fourth quarter three's!

    MDA did a great job today,

    Many said Danny Ainge is the best gm ever.

    where are Celtics bench?

    I knew they have future first picks, a lot.

    Told ya guy he would win you over.

    Not many can match his passion in a game.

    And then you add his character.

    He is just an easy guy to root for.

    You guys Just dont know Dantoni is a pt guard coach. You gonna give this coach two point guards. He has Coached Kidd Nash made lin into a star in nyc and Harden. Hes known to make pt guards flourish.Now you land westbrook into this man lap and you have harden. I believe dantoni told morey to trade capela to open the space for him to coach and use westbrook to his full potential.

    I was not a big fan of the trade initially and was really hating Russ’ game in Nov and part of Dec, but he’s been an alpha Monster ever since mid Dec when he changed his game and he has been the guy that's held this team steady while James has been on hiatus somewhere for the bulk of the last two months. I don’t think there is a guy in the NBA that is as competitive and puts his ass on the line like Russ does and no one plays at the pace and speed he does. He’s been damn near brilliant to watch play for the last 2 months ! Now dish me up some roadkill crow !!

    He might have his best career years with us efficiency wise, that's crazy.

    We have a legit one two MVP duo, that might both average an efficient 30 in a top ranked offense and now defense.

    It's been fun to watch

    The last shot didn't look like a foul at all. If Westbrook keeps this up.......then it might be the most lopsided trade Morey has ever made with Presti.

    We have Co-MVP's. We need them both! This team isn't doing anything without Harden and WB.

    Games like tonight is why Russ is preferable than CP3. He's an actual foil to Harden and provides a different and more explosive form of attack when Harden is going through his ruts, as opposed to CP3 who's functionally similar to Harden and can fall through the trap of a similar rut.

    Damn RIght after the game harden didnt care he went looking for westbrook the first thing after the buzzer and gave him a big hug right away. Thats love and chemistry right there. This is going to work.
