    I’m really puzzled how anyone can think this team is better than last year’s team. The defense is several levels worse and we added a couple of guys (Ennis, MCW) to the main rotation whose only skill is Ryan Bowen style hustle. Melo looks little better than Anderson and disappears for long stretches.
    And we just look old and unathletic overall.

    Harden and Paul aren’t carrying this team to a championship if they have to work so hard against mediocre teams.

    Melo missed a easy steal then Harris hits a three on him. After that Harden shows you he just needs CP3 to close cause he's incapable to do so by himself.

    Dead serious....
    I would offer Gordon, Tucker, a first rounder and Melo for Jimmy B and Taj G. right after this game.

    We gotta shake sh*t up.

    It’s hard to watch this team even with CP3. So far it feels like 2016, this team is just not looking good. We just look old and slow.

    They look so bad. I don't even understand. I knew "taking a step back on the defensive end" was a possibility. But this isn't a step back. This is all of the steps back. This is back to square one. And when I say square one I mean "learning to play basketball" square one.
