    Despite Harden struggling and us missing wide open shots, I'm happy we're up. Let's go 2nd half!

    Awesome defensive effort. Tucker has got to knock one or two down in the next half - they are leaving him completely when we're on offense and he has yet to make them pay.

    Defense and Effort is King. Harden not playing well, but his effort is great. PJ is shooting like a bum, but the defense and effort is amazing.

    We got down by 13 or 14 then turned the defense way up. WB, house, and Bmac playing well

    Harden having 4 fouls is a blessing in disguise..Offense looks more fluid without him

    Foul trouble but Harden is contributing in other ways even though his three point shot is not dropping

    Watch him on D. He’s been making up for his misses on D. Who do you think he is kawhaii?

    Westbrook, keep it up...keep driving straight to the basket. Make it hard for their defense. And the rest of the team, hit your 3-pointers and we got this.

    Tucker’s legs are shot from that OT Dallas game. He can’t buy a basket. That’s where his age is a disadvantage.

    If Tucker hit his threes off his passes, you might think differently

    Geezes what does tucker need to do to get his offensive game going. Maybe we need to run some sets for him so he can at least get going.

    He’s been pretty active on both ends just missing shots and Has had some tough calls go against him.

    Giannis’s offensive game is all about offensive bully ball.
    He gets away with a lot!

    Westbrook was huge during that final stretch maintaining the lead. Good stuff.

    The level of focus is sky high. Love it!

    Russ keeping that pressure on them like Giannis does to most teams.

    The length of Cov, PJ, and JGreen have been awesome. Cov on the weakside help has been beautiful.

    Those 2 strips by Harden in the 2nd... man.
