    I dont think its that conducive to winning. We lose to bad teams. I definitely feel like harden cares more about his numbers than he does about winning.

    We lose to shitty teams. This team is nowhere near championship level. Im talking about winning consistently and beating the teams you should. That should come before individual stats. The rockets play such a **** style of basketball. Its harden either stepping back for a 3 or harden taking it to the rim. The rest of the team just stands around. It hurts their defense too. The defense is lazy and some of these guys are overpaid slackers. The coach is way overrated too. Boring ass iso crap. Hate it.

    Maybe you should just take this season off then, and hope for a product you find more enjoyable next year.

    I basically have. Maybe you should understand that winning beats individual stats.

    We’re 21-9 with heavy injuries. I think that record speaks for itself. You can’t expect a 30-0 record.

    Westbrick should be thanking Adams for all the uncontested rebounds he lets him him.

    This is idiots yelling at each other. That one guy don't even know his name probably is the guy who does the lighting for the set they just threw in there because another guy couldn't show up. Jalen Rose apparently doesn't think effective field goal % is a part of efficiency. And apparently Max thinks Steph Curry's body can handle that workload.
    Not a single one of them mentioned the Rockets injuries this year in their argument. I don't follow OKC but have they sustained the same injuries Houston has?

    Watching this video lowered my IQ.

    The whole debate should have been "Westbrook should be thanking Paul George for everything that is going right for them right now."

    Also, my....freaking....word....do I hate the "Oh, it's MDA's system! If you put Curry there he'd do the same thing!" No....no he wouldn't. At all. It would be about 10 times worse, and that's not a knock on Curry, it's just different styles of basketball. Curry can't drive like James can, which draws defenders in for open 3's for teammates. It'd literally be Curry shooting 40 3's. Those arguments are just idiotic.

    They both are impressive streaks and both are conscious of it while doing it.

    That point when Jalen says "ACTUAL FG%" and you realize he's a f'ing moron.
