    Exactly! Pick your poison...either Harden goes for 20 and 12 assists or let him have 30 points+ plus night with Howard going off too...that's the difference in Harden this year versus last year. Now that he's gotten a taste of 40 points in the playoffs don't be shocked he doesn't do this a few more times in the playoffs this year. Curse REMOVED

    WTF? The Spurs have the DPOY, a top 3 defensive rating, and an all time great rim protector in Duncan, even at 39.

    Your argument is it is not good to be skeptical and then you bring forward couple examples that one should be skeptical because:

    One it is this outcome the next year it could be another outcome.

    That is called being skeptical. This is what that word is about.

    I didn't think I needed to explain the pejorative meaning of the word, but that's what I meant. Or "don't always be about doom and gloom!"

    Rox fans should definitely be more optimistic, less cautious, more asserting themselves in the playoffs despite first round losses, injuries.....

    Teams that had recent dynasties and success almost every year (Spurs,.....)

    their fans should be more realistic, more friendly and empathetic toward fans of other teams.

    James' step back jumper continues to be one of the most deadly signature moves in the game. It feels like he makes it 90% of the time. Scary thing is, he has the eurostep too. You can't stop the Beard!

    This is what you get with true gritty veterans. This team is playing with focus and passion. Last season we folded under adversity. Morey did an excellent job in acquiring veterans like Smith, Ariza, Terry and Brewer.

    Just need everyone to stay healthy and all will be well.

    The Spurs look pretty strong though, even with Parkers dodgy archilles
    and Splitter's calf.

    'sept we're not healthy, so Rox would have a disadvantage at PG, a DPOY on Harden and be going up against a top defensive team. But that might be better than getting destroyed by CP3.

    Carlisle's antisemitic "Kosher" quote will no doubt draw Silver's attention.

    It hasn't been a "Kosher" game for the Rox in the PlayOffs for 20 yrs. Deal with Dallas.
