    They aren't acting like anything. They are an average team bottom line

    JB faints at the idea of not playing Brewer in key stretches

    I suspect Lawson's turnaround is more related to getting his DWI suspension out of he way than anything else.

    I was encouraged by what I saw offensively on the first half.

    We have lost probably 3-5 games by simply not boxing out. Atrocious fundamentals.

    When you decide to switch any screen and Lawson ends up battling rebounds with Millsap, 17 offensive rebounds happen. Is not boxing out or bad luck, it is a coaching decision.

    Also, dont understand why you need Lawson on the court when the other team is doing hack a Capela/Howard and basically what Lawson is doing on the court is defend players tallers than him.

    Harden seems to be falling down and losing the ball a lot this season.

    It looks to me like defenses are anticipating his move and are getting into position to cut him off, and unfortunately he is so predictable that it works for them.

    Switching on defense, allowing Harden to do whatever and putting Brewer in might have something to do with this loss J.B....
