    I mean without even having to compare to mchale those were incredible plays .

    The commentators were laughing how it looked like harden was lined up as a tailback.

    I agree with calvin's point in the post game that Minnesota should have known not to give up a three , but those were incredible plays .

    It's hard to fight the natural tendency to try and stop a layup .

    Ok, 10 straight wins aside, we'll follow your logic. Let's win 55 before we predict 55. You win.

    Good read by Harden and nice play by Pringles to place the people in the right position.

    Is this what a coach who can draw up a play in the clutch feels like?

    Gotta put together multiple win streaks like they currently have. Cant win 10, and then play .500 ball.

    D'antoni's out of timeout plays are amazing, a sky high upgrade over McFail.

    I'm sorry MIKE D!! I DIDN"T BELIEVE IT YOU.

    Now we know it was All MELO's fault.

    DAAAAMN. We should have trusted Mike after he made Lin into a legend.

    This is what Mike D can do with real talent like Harden. 60 wins season again, just like he did in Phoenix when he had real players like Nash instead of ME MYSELF AND I MELO

    MIKE D is a genius! He made a decent player like Nash into a Hall of Fame player. He made a scrub like Lin into a legit player.

    Now he's making Harden from an All Star to MVP and into a 60 wins team every year like he did with Nash and the SUNS.

    FUTURE IS BRIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And D'Antoni made Jeremy Lin. Only MDA would make Harden pass like that, Coach Of The Year made it happen. I'm quite sure Westbrook is the coach of the Thunder.

    I'm not sorry. I am pleasantly surprised but this team still hasn't shown it will win in the playoffs when the style is grinder and the biggest question was health.

    I still see way too many defensive lapses and lack of energy at times.

    I didn't expect us to be this good obviously, but I still see some of the holes that worried me before. Hopefully they get that worked out by the end of the season.
