    What do you guys think? Win two more? Next loss against Memphis?
    I don't know why I have a bad feeling going against OKC. Their role players love playing against us

    this is the mvp dwight weve been looking for. While harden is really important. How far we go depends on him. I hope dmo keeps it up. If so , we wont have to worry about depth anymore.

    Then Europe's players must be hobos, well, for Terrence to stomp on

    Absolutely, best game so far for my man Black. I still say he is going to be a major contributor eventually. Dorsey was a mistake. Rockets may be better than I thought they would be. Beverly and Jones yet to come back. When they do, the bench players will be better.

    Dorsey and Pap played on the same team the last few years ? i think that i saw that. If so it explains why he is here. Maybe him and Pap are good friends.

    Anthony Morrow was unconscious tonight. He'll be a huge scoring option off the bench for them.

    Good solid win.

    Best game from DMo that I've seen in awhile.

    Thank god Harden's injury didn't seem serious. Dwight looking VERY athletic and quick, he looks even better than last season.

    We should get by with this lineup at home against the 76ers but we NEED Jones and Beverley back ASAP. We won't win against good teams without them.

    No doubt a major difference in the way the team is playing this year compared to the last 3, but I need to see us lock down teams like SA (at full strength), Portland, Clips, Mavs, Griz, OKC (when KD and RW are back) and Warriors (when we are at full strength - cause I KNOW for certain we win that game if Howard plays even half his normal mins).

    We haven't played a team that has great players at every position yet, with the exception of GSW and we lost (again if DH plays that is a win), after we

    Anyone have any idea how long Bev and TJ are going to be out ?

    Sure would be nice to have them back for the Memphis game.

    I loved how we attacked that weak defender Kevin Martin with Ariza.

    He got so abused.

    I'm glad we got out of this sloppy game with a win and no injuries. I think McHale played harden and howard too long but he probably had to for the "exhibition" for international fans.
