    Nothing at all. They never mention us. Unless it involves LeBron James future. Or James harden as 3rd cadidate for mvp.

    U heard all about Boston and okc and Lebron when they win. But nothing when they lose. Boston just lost to the bulls.

    james harden had 26 points and 17 assists and it didn't even seem like he had a great night. he's pretty special.


    and wow! moore and holiday each took 20 shots and made at least 75% of them. have any two teammates done that in like the last 5 seasons? if you would have said 2 people not named demarcus would go 15/20 and 16/21 i would've said we obviously got blown out.

    Media narrative for the Celtics loss? Kyrie didn't play. Not his fault.
    Media narrative for OKC's loss? The bench didn't show up. Not Westbrook's fault.

    Harden should be a two time MVP but I never thought he was unstoppable ....until this year. Every time he does anything now I just assume it's going in.

    From the past couple of games, it appears teams HAVE to shoot that ridiculously well against the Rockets to lose by single digits.

    Also we pretty much had it won at the 1 min mark. So it's not like we had a lucky win or over time. This one and the last win were very convincing.

    Pelicans had a shooting night for the ages and still lost.:eek:

    So similar to the Portland game just ridiculous offense from the opponent and the Rockets stars just took over.

    We are becoming like the Warriors or 90s Bulls when no lead is safe and no matter how hot you’re shooting you just know you’re still gonna lose!

    so celtics got blown by the bulls, thunder got blown out by the hornets on their home court, and we figured out how to win against a team having one of their historic games.. do we realize how close Jrue and E'Twuan were to having a 40/40 game.. there were both a field goal away from acheivng it.. regardless career highs from both on historic shooting night.. what a win, what a team.. these type of wins give me hope against teams like the warriors

    I ate all of my words. I was actually doing reverse psychology....IT WORKED.




    I'm obviously the reason this was all possible. Please shower me with praise.
