    Those wasted possession we are throwing away just because the team dumb will come haunt them in the fourth

    Good lord communicate defensively Harden.


    And it looks like DAntoni does know it’s a good idea to play Nene, and play Harden against Favors, and trust House over Green.

    FINALLY doing all those things that were clear to some of us here.

    We play with heart but our role players are so one dimensional. They’re either scorers or defenders.

    The difference between us and GSW.

    We’re too stupid a team to capitalise more often than not on our momentum.

    Each time we’ve had a marginal lead in this game we could have put the foot on their throat and crushed them.

    Instead it’s stuoid shots or even worse turnovers under no pressure. Boom they come back and hit a timely 3 to make it much closer than it should have been.

    The warriors simply don’t do that for the most part. That’s why their blowouts are demoralising blowouts. They want the other team to know they suck.

    James is making me proud with his defense tonight .

    good idea by Gordon but about 1.5 seconds late and a low line-drive pass

    our idea of defense on the 3 line seems to be leave the man as open as possible and hope he misses due to shock of being so wide open. ;)

    You mean we should actually guard him instead of leaving him wide open every possession?

    The jazz should feel good to be shooting 30% and only down 8 on the road. We got to step on their necks now. Mitchell will eventually wake up like harden did
