    i think james hardover turned the ball over 7 times, 7 damn times in the preseason, that's a recipe for disaster, and Zhou had 2 blocks again in 3 minutes of playing time, that's 32 blocks per 48 minutes.......this kid should get some serious playing time IMO, chris johnson is a wash.....

    I just dont get Dantoni sometimes.
    Exebition game, Paul is not playing, time to see whos our 4th guard. Harden plays like 40 minutes and Ariza plays 36 minutes.
    What's its good for? Why not seeing Isaah Taylor or any of the 9-11 rotation players?

    Nope. No reason to be playing 37-38 minutes in preseason....like non.

    And I don't want to see it in the regular season either. You have depth.

    Playing Harden and Ariza that much in a preseason game is utterly moronic but it was definitely fun to watch Harden dominate.

    we should have picked up jarrett jack, looks like he's come back from the injury well and we still need a 4th guard. capela doesn't seem to have the same lift since gaining that weight. anderson needs to get more than 3 rebs in 27 minutes. pringles trying to get us in shape to be ready for warrierrz.

    It is odd after they talked all off-season about lowering workload.

    Maybe it's just about getting them sharp

    That's Mike D. He has always been like that and he will never change. I remember when people tried to tell me otherwise last year lol.

    Capella doesn't really play above the rim anymore. Bounce is gone. Missed a lot of bunnies at the rim.

    Our backup guard situation is dire. Really need to get a decent vet.

    PJ is worse than advertised in terms of being offensively limited and Luc on the otherhand seems underrated. He is what we hoped Brewer would be.

    Nene still knows how to play but seems age is catching upto him.

    Anderson seems like he is trying harder on defense and his shot seems to be in midform. He has no quickness to his attacking closeouts and is useless if his one trick doesn't work.

    Harden continues his careless turnovers.
    But his positives are so overwhelming that it will still win you games. Unless you are playing the SA or GSW of the world.

    Jo chee should be instructed never to leave the floor on contests. He has like a 9'7" reach and should not need to

    Our third stringers are horrible. Better find some decent rotation types.

    agreed with everything here, but we will win over 50 because of harden alone

    Didn't he get paid more than that?

    I thought the knicks did something stupid and gave him like 8m a year.

    Hopefully for their sakes they did snag u said lol.

    How about delay parlaying his succes with Lebron into like 13m a year.

    I'm sure bev looks at that contract and it was the main reason why he wanted out of houston to showcase his game more.

    32 blocks per 48 minutes is next level basketball analysis.
