    Ideally we'd be able to give him a few games off to try to get right but we can't afford it.

    A win is a win but hard not think with sonic this is a loss

    And yes I know capela would of not let Porzingis go off like that

    Yeah it does. It’s the freaking NBA. You are supposed to have some tall players on the court.

    He’s so lucky to have Harden and Westbrook save his ass and win games with their talent alone.

    Yes they did but the pissants need their misery.

    I'm smiling and enjoying the W. Not enough wins in this world and good guys do not always survive.

    I’m not sure what you are getting at? We barely beat the Mavs without Luka at home with Harden and Westbrook lighting it up and a big lead going in to the 4th quarter.

    Not playing anyone over 6’5” wasn’t a genius move. It was a dumb move that he got away with. Barely. There’s a reason that’s a record.

    I’ll take the W. But having Westbrook on PZ in a tight game is dumb. Fortunately Harden hit some clutch 3’s to save Dantony’s ass.

    Be careful mentioning the obvious defense and rebounding problems. People will say you are complaining since the Rockets won.

    never because their ownership group is too cheap... they even let Brogdon go.. tilman would never do that.... hes ready to overpay and even to go into LT for star players

    Great win tonight! Glad to see Harden putting the ball in the basket. Watching Harden and Russ dominate is a sight to see. Let’s keep it going!!

    Judging by this game, he isn't very smart. We couldn't stop Porzingis for the most part tonight, which is understandable considering we had a 6ft 6 guarding a 7ft 3 guy all night.

    Its for spacing . If you want to know why Harty didnt play(he should play more) IT IS BECAUSE OF WESTBROOK. You dont get these stats from Westbrook playing with a center because Westbrook CANNOT SHOOOOOOOOT. Small ball gets us Bestbrook.

    I don't have the stats in front of me but I seem to remember iHart playing well with Westbrook. Granted it's a small sample size, but everything Hartenstein is a small sample size.
