    Its because the league doesn't want to let Harden succeed...

    Silver is the Silas of NBA commissioners and Harden is his Alpe

    That non-foul call and Harden crying at the ref just gave me flashbacks. I don't like it

    Watching the game and realized how much "Turkish Airlines" ads we are getting. Never remember Turkish Airlines ads in Toyota Center (may be I missed). East coast is the where Turks live in the states (New Jersey, New York, Mass).

    If Celtics don't get the ring this year, they might look for a C and Alp might be their target. As Russian says: "Bite your tounge". Still possibility.

    Danuel House must be one lazy ass mofo. I mean we kinda knew where his priorities were during the bubble. But man, Imagine being an athletic 3+D guy but never improving beyond your third year.

    Reggie says "this is very much like Houston James Harden" after he dropped in a mid-range jumper.

    Dude, MDA did not accept mid-rangers on his watch. This is not H Town James

    Boston gets the 50:50 call that could have gone either way and the racists in the crowd have to tell the refs that they suck'


    What a bunch of a-holes

    It's a little known fact that Mehmet actually translates as James

    Washed Harden can still take on a full squad.
