    those two loses against a Cavs team where Harden had 8 TO's
    and a Clippers loss where they hit 22 3's and JJ Timberlake went for 40.
    Oh and your franchise leader is hitting strip clubs after an OT loss where he again was shut off, but continue to cook.

    Reggie Jackson and Stanley Johnson will combine for 50 pts in very easy fashion due to our broke down team D / weak ass close outs on 3 pt shooters that is lead by Harden.
    Blow out loss delivered by the Pistons...again. Harden will hit up the Detroit strip clubs from 2am-4:30am, then go back to the hotel and watch the Khloe & Lamar sex tape
    while crying and eating a breakfast defektor crunchwrap.

    FML.

    Start Thornton at PG makes a lot of sense, he can handle the rock, run pick and roll, get into the paint and give great passes to Capela & D12.

    Bev didn't look too good running around in the Clippers game. If he hasn't improved, probably best to sit him.

    On another note, who is ready for some "hack-a-drummond?"

    Beverley is the new Mr. Glass, more injury-prone than Yao.

    I understand the reasons for starting Thornton at pg, but I don't understand why we can't let Lawson start... I mean we got him originally to be paired with harden... I know it didn't work at all initially but I mean how is it supposed to work when you don't give it enough time to gel... give them a chance to mesh if only to help raise Lawson's trade value (which I don't see us doing anyway)

    Harden's ego decided he won't let go of the ball, so why starting Lawson where you have a better spot up shooter in Terry? In defense, Lawson and Terry are neck to neck anyway.

    When Harden asked Moray to get him a secondary ball handler at the end of last season, I assume he wanted someone to create something for the final 4 seconds of the shot clock, where he holds the ball for the first 20.

    Swear thought that's why we traded for Lawson. Sigh this team.
