    Offensively, the spacing is much better when you aren’t playing a second poor shooter next to Westbrook.

    because Kevin Love is a big name

    same dudes constantly crying about the lack of defense will then turn around and suggest trading for the likes of Kevin Love...I feel like I’m taking crazy pills

    Kevin Love gets treated like a buffet on defense...everybody eats

    Agreed. Of course, none of those factors make it any less frustrating.

    Difference in the game? Only 6 Turnovers.
    Need MORE of that.
    Can't win games with 16 TO's and sloppy ball.
    Looks like James and Russ DID take notes from the Utah game

    If they can get a combination of Richaun Holmes or Nerlens Noel and an elite 3&D wing with length, they absolutely should.

    Especially if the NBA is going to officiate him like he already is LBJ.

    Some size might be helpful, MDA. Watching Russ---manfully!---try to body up Porzingis was inspiring, but the strategy was stupid.

    Abut time !!! Hopefully this is the beginning of the comeback, but it wasn’t smooth like most of his nights are with a stat line like that. I’m not crapping on him because he looked at times just like JAMES ****ING HARDEN, but he went sharp to start, and his D was lazy for long periods !

    Small ball played a huge role in that. Gave up a ridiculous amount of offensive rebounds and points in the paint.

    MDA might be a bit too revolutionary for his own good.

    If the Spurs were willing to rebuild, a healthy LaMarcus Aldridge, who now shoots threes, would be a great fit at center for the Rockets.

    Yup seems stupid, he isn’t certainly better around the basket than PJ any day of the week, ok so he doesn’t shoot the three so what he can get a dunk or a layup and he can rebound and body up on a big, I guess it’s cause Mike doesn’t trust him on the switch ?
