    It's funny how we say Charles is a clown who's opinion doesn't matter when he is critical of our team, and then we hang on his every word when he gives the slightest bit of praise. Is there a medical term for that?

    This. At least 2-way player (while still being a laughable discussion) is plausible. Who the best player is, or any discussion involving any answer that isn't James Harden, is not.

    Eh, not me. He's an entertainer on a TV show. That's how he's even described himself when he was confronted by an angry San Antonio fan at a hotel bar for talking about large churro-eating San Antonio women.

    So no need to be take his words so seriously if he himself doesn't take them seriously.

    The point is the NBA analyst would look horrible if they were homers .
    I would find it annoying as a viewer.

    If we suck and it's the truth then so be it
    If we are good so be it

    There's some truth to what Charles says that's why it's funny

    Last time I went there I saw churros

    Not sure if it is a medical term but "confirmation bias" is what I think when I see that behavior.

    Houston has a shot, however in these last few games, I'm wondering if we hit the wall. I'm happy that we're winning but it hasn't looked to pretty. Getting tired of the blown 20 point leads in less than 8 minutes. Like to see the defense improve which they were in december. Hoping it will get better starting tonight

    No big deal, still a legit top 4 west team. Will a top 4 west team all win + 60 games? Probably not. Will we win 60+ games? Probably not.

    We got a good team and we got a Morey to go hunting leading up to the trade deadline.

    Barkley cursed us with his legitimacy. Take it back.. we don't want it.

    People respond to Chuck cause he's not a gimmick like Stephen A Smith. He really is speaking his mind, right or wrong.
    He's not yelling to get attention or saying something outrageous (Skip Bayless) just to get ratings.

    If we can't beat the Clippers with homecourt advantage, might as well start tanking now.

    We would beat the Clippers, Doc Rivers is an imbecile and we have the best player in the series and they don't have anyone that can guard Harden.
