    I feel like harden shoots better in rhythm. His off the ball threes are looking ice cold this season, and they always have looked good at the top of the key.

    Yeah, games he shot poorly off-the-dribble.

    Thank goodness he's improved if he MUST do it.

    Another W and another day where @ashleyem has to start to realize that chris Paul and harden are a good fit.

    Harden drilled the ball in Parson's face like 3 times

    Yeah

    More wins for the West makes all Leastern Conference MVP candidates look shittier.

    I didn't know you were being sarcastic about the 3PT contest thing, because in my recollection Harden did pretty OK.

    Harden came at 3rd in the 1st round (behind Klay and Curry), along with JJ Redick and Booker. Lost in the tie breaker, but those are all elite shooters that Harden is in company of. Even beat out McCollum and Lowry.

    Cap dropping a casual 17/13 on Marc Gasol. Should've traded him for Thon Maker when we had the chance.

    For those idiots saying Harden and Paul could not co-exist then ok. Harden is averaging almost 39 points in the 2 games with Paul and CP3 is averaging 14 and 8 while starting to flow into the team.

    I really hope there's enough home crowd to make him feel at home.

    It was amazing to see Chris in full cry. He has his leg strength back, hitting those long range 3's and a tough mid-range shot shows just how good he is, even when he isn't passing. Harden and he are playing very well together. I thought James would struggle mightily next to him. I'm so glad I was wrong. Gordon is starting to adjust with Paul as the starter. Capela got better defensively after the initial problems facing Gasol. He is looking good with Chris out there, and continues to have great chemistry with James.

    The unsung heros were just great. Ryan, Ariza, Tucker, Nene. Nice to see Luc back too.
