    Honestly, I do like how we play without Durant if only because w/o FVV he plays point-forward too much, confusing the offense and leading to TOs, and he and Sengun hanging outside the 3pt line too much.

    But... dammit I'm so tired of Rockets injuries. The timeliness is shaking-hands-at-sky inducing.

    This reminds me of the game Bledsoe went down and Brady came in

    Reed it’s your time to shine. You can be a bigger name in LA tonight over your brother Bieber at Coachella.

    Who’s got the pointiest knees on the team? That’s where we’ll find our culprit.

    can’t find any Google images of Senguns knee. He got on mc hammer pants.

    my guess is Adams was drinking coffee and he ran into his knee.

    or

    Jabari still mad about retaaaarrd comment, this was his revenge moment.

    Tired of this rigged azz ****. This is flat out ridiculous. This is also why you can't waste years and say we don't need to acquire a point guard when you don't have one. Just stupid.

    looks like he warmed up and then they pulled him. I can’t decide if that’s a good sign or not.
