    Sometimes I wish we could go back to a traditional offense just to see what people would say when we had long stretches of bad offense despite shooting mid range shots again.

    People act like teams that shoot mid range don’t go through brutal slumps

    Butler is the only guy on the Wolves that is great and doesnt b**** and of course is injury prone.

    People still refusing to believe what makes Harden prone to having one of these games, more so than other superstars. It's because he's neither super tall nor athletic, which is always a great trait to fall back on when your finesse game is not working. Most great players have both brute physical aspect to go along with their elite skills. Harden only has latter, which is his ultimate limitation. The only way to overcome this is to be an otherworldly shooter like Curry, but we know that's not the case.

    I’ve seen the future folks. I’ve been to the mountain top. I’ve seen a world where people acknowledge how well James plays defense, especially in the post.

    I may not get there with you all
