    I just think Russ was making sure he didn’t get hurt

    That wasn't very fun to watch. I didn't expect us to play with any urgency.

    You put Lilllard on this team instead of Westbrook(I still believe we can win, with his A game, he's great). And that is an easy tittle.

    PJ and RobCo need to get their shot back ASAP.

    Maybe.

    But why not just add Klay to existing team and guarantee the ring?

    Klay is clear upgrade to House.

    covington and tucker gonna kill our offense starting a week from now. okc will pack the paint and double harden, leaving these guys plus westbrook open for a brickfest

    forgot we had a game today...looks like I didn’t miss much

    just going off the boxscore, it looks like Green and Mac continued to play well offensively while Covington and PJ continued their bricking ways

    Tuck, from what I've seen, brings it in the post season. As for Roco, time will tell.

    Is it a coincidence that our two best defenders that have to chase everyone all over the court shoot poorly?

    Tucker 3pts, Covington 6pts.

    Harden or not, that cannot continue.

    Didn't watch today's game, but don't we usually switch everything on defense? Those two are probably the hardest working defenders on the team, but I don't think 'running around thus exhausted' is a good explanation, here.

    Giving up 5 to 6 inches and 20 - 40 pounds every night has an impact.

    a lot of Covington’s bricks are short...as for PJ, on a lot of his misses from the corner, u can tell the trajectory is off...Roco’s seem to be on-line for the most part at least

    could be that they just don’t like shooting in these bubble gyms on some Ryno at TC sh*t

    I actually don't mind shooting Russ shooting the occasional wide open 3. I much prefer that over those fade away 15 footers in the post that never seem to go in.
