    You've not followed the posts enough to understand what we're talking about.

    I don't care statistically how many rebounds PJ gets, he's out there playing the 4, and I'm taking a firm position that it's not good for the team overall.

    This team is much stronger than last year for sure. The center position should be the top. It is really interesting to move wood to guard AD and put Cousins in the center. We lose 4 starter level players, the team looks well.

    and no one is even surprised

    I was thinking he’d drop 40 and 10 tonight, and even that was an underestimation

    Harden will age so gracefully. There’s nothing he did tonight that he won’t be able to do at age 34 or 35

    Harden chokes every big playoff game he gets . Meanwhile curry being one of the nba best always found a way to win the big moments overs James

    It’s just the FIRST game. I thought Silas was fantastic. Definitely more variety in the offense so far, and it’s gonna get even more versatile when he gets his full roster.

    if we had Steph, this game would’ve been officially over towards the end of the 3rd quarter...maybe even by middle of the 3rd...

    Steph with 22 points and 6 assists as we lose by 20

    House had THREE rebounds, not 7.

    Yeah.

    The reality is this team needs Cousins and Wall to make the same recovery Durant has. They looked well in pre-season...but we definitely missed another creator and another thick body like Cousins.

    Sucks our next game is against 0-2 Denver lol.

    All 3 guys you just mentioned are washed up and can’t play even avg defense . Portland would have had 140 points with those guys in

    He's talking about PJ Tucker. He has 11 rebounds but minus the 4 turnover so he has 7 rebounds. NEW MATH.

    Good lord, but are you a chump. It's almost remarkable. Maybe it's the one thing you do well.

    He's not bad. He's going to get better.

    He's just not going to be doing extremely well competing against Covington as a starting PF.

    We're going to keep seeing teams that can put up a lineup who outplay PJ playing the 4.

    You always know who the bandwagon fans are. They talk the most trash and only do so after their team wins a championship.

    I thought it was odd even back in 14-15 how people thought Steph was better than Harden. To think it now? You just are not right in the head.
