It's weird that when harden was asked how he has grown off the court, he was talking about his business ventures and marketing brand.....
NBATV guys: Is the 2 seed realistic [again]? Steve Smith: Still trying to figure out their style, the way they'll play, the ball not in Harden's hand 90% of the time and the question mark is Howard's health and how many games will he play? McHale did a phenomenal job and got everything out of that team. They'll miss Josh Smith and all the little intangibles. Terrence Jones, Sam Dekker & Motiejunas are the 3 key guys for me. . . . Homecourt advantage but 4th. Brian Shaw: I like the perimeter guys(1-2-3 positions). If Dwight isn't healthy, is Jones ready to take on the PF position for an entire season? Will Motiejunas be healthy? Beverley is not giving anything up in terms of that starting position. Are the PGs, when Harden has the ball, will they be able to knock down the perimeter 3 off the ball?
Even with the LOF's gone? P.S. Never will forget Clutch's mention a couple seasons back (maybe not quite that long ago) when Lin was still with us that the two most popular videos Clutch had posted on the site involved (1) Lin and (2) Bev getting hurt (which is jacked the eff up).
:grin: Daryl continues to tinker with the roster: Daryl doesn't care about chemistry! Daryl brings back an identical roster (never mind upgrades): Well, Daryl brought back the same roster. Are they really that good?
"Josh Smith is a locker room cancer. Detroit's problem is now Houston's problem "Rockets will miss Josh Smith and his intangibles." I'm grateful for him saving the season last year, but give me a break.
I'm excited for this year, but DMo being out for longer than "days" (as Morey put it) puts a damper on it for me. Praying to God that TJ/Clint/Montrezl step it up big time...
They hate us cause they ain't us! I think it's a lot of things: 1) Everyone was mocking Morey when we were stuck in mediocrity, now Morey is laughing at them. 2) Harden went from a budding superstar to one that became an easily punchline for his bad defensive season. He is starting to get respect again. 3) Dwight Howard. Even though most people have let it go, there is still residual hate from him picking us and not the Lakers. 4) Team that tends to overachieve and most people in the media hate being wrong about what they think they "know". 5) They didn't really like us or respect us to beginning with.
