    Each time Harden got a rest, the score will be closer...You know why. Ball movement...

    If we can get the whole squad in abd harden doesn’t dribble for 21 seconds every possession we might get somewhere

    I’m all for him making his own points but he’s gotta have a balance, he’s just to predictable

    If we had anyone to slow down Durant that would be nice. Need a lift in this last q!

    can't be playing stupid and making stupid decisions and turnovers vs. this team.

    this is not the wolves or jazz. they will not beat themselves. you have to beat them.

    I feel like he's just trying everything to see if something works...tried Ryan, didn't work, now tried Nene...should probably play with the 8 man rotation lol

    Chris Paul needs to take over

    That was a strange turnover.

    we're just auto-switching on those. there comes a time when you have to fight over a screen and not switch. nene on durant is free points. fighting over might not work either, but i already know what nene on durant means.

    Seriously why was Nene playing peremiter D the whole time? He contests literally 2 seconds after the shot is already up.

    We’re lucky we’re not down 15.

    We have typically dominated the beginning of the 4th with cp3 and Gordon.

    Gsw bench’s Durant and Steph beginning of the 4th.

    We have to take advantage and make a strong serious run in these next 3-4 minutes.

    Cp3
    Gordon
    Luc
    Ryan/or/Green
    Tucker
