    As I said before the season started WE HAVE A ROLE PLAYER PROBLEM. HARDEN AND WESTBROOK WILL BE FINE WE NEED BETTER ROLE PLAYERS.

    Agree 100%. James Harden did a better job carrying a young, unproven Rockets team to 45 wins and a playoff berth when he was 23 years old. And yet Curry gets all the love.

    Glad to see him being forced to play the same role as James, and another part of me is glad to see him struggling so far.

    Ariza was very smart... so was Moute. We need a real power forward of course.

    No. Assuming the ppg allowed was a tie before tonight (I’m too lazy to look it up), this game will put us at #29 and Wizards at #30.;)

    media and so many casual fans said guys like Curry could average 36 too if they shot as much as Harden

    Curry playing like a chump so far this season, and u gotta love it

    Steve Kerr was supposed to be 1 of the best coaches because he was winning titles with a stacked team. We’ve been catfished.

    I was at this game and while of course it was embarrassing to get run off the floor by Moritz Wagner/Davis Bertans twin towers - IT WAS FUN AS HELL at the end to steal the win, especially to take ones mind off the astros as they were choked out. I will post my post-game, view from HHH observations thread later. Look for almost no insight but me saying it was fun.

    I know you are being sarcastic but he was a plus defender at the C position - but he does not fix our lazy perimeter D guys - we need Russ and Harden to give a crap, and it looks like they will enable each other into crap defense all year.

    I hear ya Sam, glad you had fun, I am sure if I was in the stands it would have been a little exciting, but man watching on NBA.com it was hard to watch those wide open shots and our guys just not rotating out to guard them.

    Buckle in folks. Every team gets up for the Rockets. Especially now that we have Westbrook. We’re basically the defacto champions of the last 3 years.

    One thing we definitely lost when we traded CP for Russ. Someone to hold everyone accountable. Remember early last season against Chicago I believe. Chris Paul calls a timeout and tells everyone to pull their sh*t together. We come back and do just that.
