    James Harden had too many bricks and turnovers in each preseason game.

    Not worried about EGo? Possible trade coming?

    Let me let you in on a secret ;): Tomball Jimmy ain't coming here; Eric Gordon will be staying put for now.

    I figured as much - I was just being cheeky. I like EGo and want him to stay put.

    It's a nice reminder that we're the superior NBA franchise.

    Remember when playing the Spurs meant something?

    These days, easier than clubbing baby seals. :)

    Agreed. When you just need points from somewhere.. we'll be calling his name. You don't need threes to close games. You just need to move the scoreboard most of the time so those fewer PPP are meaningless. His 2s are welcomed in my mind... but later in games.

    Yup, straight from the insider newsletter. ;)
    99% not happening but 99% is not 100%.

    Nope, just my uneducated opinion!

    Still preseason, but if Melo can uncork a bunch of points in a short stretch like he did in the 4th on a semi-regular basis, he's going to win some games for us. That was really nice to see, to put it mildly.

    Yeah, that ability to take over games/close bodes well for us.

    Here's another secret, never underestimate Morey and his ability to make deals.
