    Without Gobert their defense seems so average

    Barnes looking like an interesting potential third best player on a very good team...

    Well if you're rooting for Dallas to win, there couldn't be a better team to root against than the Jazz.

    Didn't watch any of it, but Rudy Gobert was +20, fouled out and the Jazz lost in OT.

    A gift to the Rockets.

    We have enough guys like Curry & Beasley.

    We need more guys like D-Mo, someone we can run the offense through.

    The more the Mavs win, the worse their draft choice. I want them to finsh at #8 and get steamrolled in the 1st round.

    I'd be good with that. Sounds like a plan to me.

    Isaiah Thomas is having an amazing year but he's definitely an angry little guy who hides behind his teammates. He's like the bizarro Bev.

    Jazz finally lose... one of the easiest schedules in the league.

    As much as I hate the Celtics, I think IT might just be my favorite non-Rocket player in the NBA right now. I mean, the dude is 5'9 and is one of the better finishers in the league, he plays with a lot of swag too which is something I like in a player.

    I hear ya, but I think I'm still holding a grudge after his trash talking to Beverley at the end of the game in Boston.

    I'm watching this game now and it's amazing to me that this guy is able to drive and score almost at will given his height.

    A good reason, but also think of the quotables we'll get from Andrew Bogut for that series...unless of course he's traded at the deadline.

    Yeah, it sucks because we had good chances to win that game at Boston too. I just enjoy watching gritty players go at each other because you don't see it very much anymore like you did in the past. Beverley and Thomas are old school dudes and they're cut from the same cloth, they play with a lot of passion and energy, they like to talk trash during the game, they never give up and they always do whatever it takes to win, they're also leaders off the court too. I'm sure they also have a lot of respect for each other, too.
